"Part accessible self-help guide and part constructive hands-on workbook, It's Not What You're Eating, It's What's Eating You teaches young people who struggle with low self-esteem and body insecurity to stop focusing on food as an answer to life's problems and to start getting to know themselves and what they value and want in life. Covering addictions and disorders like anorexia, bulimia, obesity, and binge eating disorder, this book also shows teens how to stop negative thought patterns, maintain meaningful and healthy relationships, indulge in self-care, love their own bodies, be happy, and take charge of their lives." - publisher's summary excerpt
