Testimonials
In 1984 I created a workshop for
women with eating disorder traits called the "What's Eating You?" workshop.
This is a structured workshop that meets twelve times for one hour and fifteen
minutes. I usually have eight women in the workshop. In 1996 I began selling my
book:
Compulsive
Eater's Workbook, A Guide For Women Recovering From Bulimia and Compulsive
Eating.

"The book was well-written and
easy to follow. I learned a lot from the book about myself and how to cope with
these problems. I was afraid at first to be in a workshop. I didn't want others
to know about me. I found out in the first workshop that I was not alone and
everyone had the same kind of fears and problems. The workshop was one of the
best things I have done for myself."

Workshop-Fall 1995
"The book is great, it is easy to
follow. You can always use it to fall back on in a moment of sadness. It can
lift your spirits. The workshop was very helpful to me. I learned to deal with
feeling my emotions, not eating them."

"I have been trying to lose weight
and take control of my eating habits for years. I was unsuccessful until I read
the Compulsive Eater's Workbook and worked with Jill. Now I understand myself so
much better. I still read the book every once in awhile to reinforce the skills
Jill and her book taught me. I'd recommend the workshop to anyone sick of diets,
expensive weight loss centers, and all other temporary weight loss regimes. This
book will teach you about yourself, and your habits, in a way nothing has
before."
Journalist
Workshop-Summer 1996
"I found this book very easy to
understand and packed full of important and extremely helpful tips and
information! Women who suffer from eating disorders do need a book like this to
guide them and remind them that there are reasons for their behavior and ways
they can gain control. Jill explained the why and how to's in a wonderfully
sensitive and creative step-by-step journey."

"The
Compulsive Eater's Workbook is a very professionally written manual, that's very
practical for clients in their healing process in dealing with their compulsive
eating patterns. What seems to be most helpful for my clients is the section
dealing with self image and exploring this issue to create new options for
re-decisions in their lives. I highly recommend this manual for all individuals
addressing the issue of compulsive eating in their life."

"I have recommended Jill's book
to clients who had problems with binge eating and overeating. The scale
describing how to read the hunger or satiety level has been found to be very
helpful. I find that people with disordered eating have not developed internal
cues for recognizing when to stop eating. This book seems to focus on developing
strong internal communications while also giving specific information on how to
adapt/control external factors."

Eating" workshop on Jill's book. It continues to be my most helpful resource
