About the Book

Women in their 30s, 40s, 50s, and 60s who have suffered with lifelong low self-esteem, disordered eating, and body image issues, who have defined themselves by their weight, and experienced the relentless psychological "tug of war" that accompanies these issues, will relish this book as a means to help them deeply understand and appreciate their eating behaviors as a coping mechanism that no longer "serves" them, and as a hands-on skill-building tool. Behind the Mask first details specific issues that many women struggle with during various stages of life that play an integral role in their disordered relationship with food, through the voices of two adult women with lifelong eating issues and the connections they have made along the way. It then provides the author's detailed three-step approach to acquire the skills necessary to eat in a more peaceful way, find one's voice, and practice self-acceptance and self-care. It is a book of connection, hope and tools for recovery.
