  (20 reviews)
Best Price: $7.01
How many times does a dieter enthusiastically and faithfully start a weight-loss regimen only to end up a week, a month, a year later giving in to hunger and cravings again and again--and before he or she knows it, the pounds have packed back on? This time, it's going to be different. This time, there's The Beck Diet Solution Weight Loss Workbook--a straightforward, effective plan for dieting successfully, losing weight with confidence, and, most importantly, keeping those excess pounds off forever. Dr. Judith Beck, director of the Beck Institute for Cognitive Therapy and Research, is a world-recognized authority in the field of Cognitive Therapy. In her first weight-loss book, The Beck Diet Solution, she created a unique program that revolutionized people's approach to shedding pounds by changing both behavior and thinking. Rather than tell what to eat, Dr. Beck's step-by-step, six-week plan--which works with any nutritious diet--teaches the skills needed to stay continuously motivated to stick to a diet and to achieve lasting weight loss. Features Works for dieters who are familiar with the original The Beck Diet Solution book AND for those coming to the program for the first time through this workbook It is a stand-alone workbook that will incorporate the philosophy of Cognitive Therapy for weight loss and give the reader a map to plan and chart their own weight-loss program Highly user-friendly, with plentiful opportunities to connect with other real-life dieters through their stories and sessions with Dr. Beck There is a place for the reader to fill out lists of favorite foods, trigger foods, and alternatives based on a healthy eating plan

Great Workbook
By A3U3ZRHUKMSKL9 on 2007-10-07
I have been following the Beck Diet solution using the original book. The workbook is a nice addition to the book, but basically is the same information as the original text with the exception of places to write your reflections. I think I'd stick to the original book, and just reflect in a journal. I love the content of The Beck Diet Solution. It approaches weight management from a common sense 'think positive' approach, giving a series of steps to take to gain control of your eating. It's made a big difference for me.
Finally!
By A1LK1G3HZWIW8R on 2007-10-13
Finally something that works for this obsessed food addict!
I have read every diet/compulsive eating/obsessive eating/overeating/binge eating, etc book on the market & I have tried every diet out there. Nothing works. Some things work initially but then my old demons come back & ruin all my work. I have undergone hypnosis & had counseling & taken prescriptions but nothing ever worked long term.
Well this book really teaches you how to stop those self-sabotaging thoughts, ways, actions. It really does teach you to think like a thin person does. I never understood someone that could actually throw food away or not eat dessert if it was in front of them.
It is initially a good amount of work but far less than most binge eating books,etc. But you really have to do all the steps to break free. You won't need to do them forever & this is only a 6 week program. By the end of the 6 weeks you realize which tools you really need to use forever. But isn't being thin & healthy worth it? I think so.
The book is very clear about eating disorders. If you have one this book isn't for you.
And everything I ever read said you can't lose weight or stop eating until you peel back all the layers of you messed up life or childhood & I have to say it's not true this book gives you an alternative!
For the first time in I would say 10 years I see the light at the end of the tunnel & I can actually say no to overeating.
This book basically helps any diet work great.
The Right Focus
By A32ZCWBERJ1K5Z on 2007-11-11
Forget the latest, greatest diet craze. Dr. Beck has nailed it in this book:you have to change the way you think about food and eating if you really want to be succesful at losing weight.
This book helps you gain the skills to focus on what's important and the tools to successfully address dieting challenges. Best of all, she provides a framework to keep the focus positive so dieting becomes something you do for yourself, not to yourself.
If you've been frustrated with dieting before -- or are trying to lose weight for the first time, I highly recommend this book.
Workbook Inspires to Lose Weight
By A476H19AS58EX on 2007-10-13
Beck Diet Solution Weight Loss Workbook is the perfect next step following the Beck Diet Solution (book). Everything I need to continue being motivated to lose weight is in your Workbook. Thank you Judith Beck. Having lost 17 lbs and continuing to lose 5 pounds at a time, I am elated!
Helpful
By A28YZ8QLF67R36 on 2007-10-11
I think this is really going to help me get a handle on my weight loss. It makes a lot of sense, and goes hand in hand with the weight loss program (WW) that I follow.
- My psychologist recommened this book
By A1AYNEE6HPXO7Y on 2008-01-30
My psychologist and therapist recommned this book and we have been working through each step.
Some of the recommendations are great: sitting down for each meal (no eating while standing or in a car), eating slowly and mindfully, dealing with hunger, etc.
- Best diet resource I ever owned
By A1CSHTXOVPS1O1 on 2008-01-19
I am a Weight Watcher Lifetimer and this book intergrates perfectly with the program. It is an in depth "Tools of Living" resource
- No Gimmicks, Real Results
By A1OE95DG5XWA5 on 2008-05-05
After having my fourth child (and having lost all the weight between each baby), I just couldn't get motivated to lose the weight again. I am not a "diet" person, and I refuse to do anything I don't feel I can maintain over the long haul. This book looked promising to me, and worth a try. Good decision. I lost 20 pounds over a period of about 6 months. I then stalled, still 10 pounds short of my pre-pregnancy weight. I knew I wasn't quite doing everything this program recommends, because cutting corners had been working ok for me (didn't do the food plan after the first 4 weeks or so... ate standing up a lot...). I bought the companion workbook for a quick re-read about 6 weeks ago. No more cutting corners. I have lost 6 more pounds... 4 to go. Everytime I don't follow my food plan, I stop losing.
No magic here. Useful methods that you can use forever. It's not easy to do it, but all you have to do to ensure results is DO it. If you do what she says to do, you will lose weight.
- Highly Recommended!
By A1IPEU4U4L9T30 on 2008-05-07
Despite my extensive collection of diet books, there are really only two that have helped me: Dr. Phil's "The Ultimate Weight Solution", and now, this book. I just finished the 6 weeks, faithfully following the program each day, and I must say that I do notice a big change in my attitude toward food and exercise. I plan to take a week "off", then start reviewing it for another 6 weeks. There are lots of great strategies here, and the daily reinforcement keeps me focused. I highly recommend this book for its down-to-earth, no nonsense approach. (If you like to check off lists and write things down, I would recommend the Workbook over the book).
- Change you thinking, Cognitive Therapy
By AUVTCIFU1RGAR on 2008-03-18
As a therapist I know this changing your thinking type book/CD can help me as well as others. Attended a workshop that Dr. Beck present. Excellent!
- Learn to think like a thin person
By AHMZS2X3XVF31 on 2008-03-29
This was a very helpful tool to use with the book.
I'm 20 lbs down with an online wt loss site, but these Beck 'tools' have been quite a good addition.

- The most helpful diet book I've ever read or owned.
By ABY0GRVBYKMFQ on 2008-03-18
For everybody serious about losing weight and keeping it off. This book makes so much sense but it must be used correctly. All steps have to be followed and, truthfully, it's much better if it's done with somebody else. I'm doing it as part of a class and it does help to have a leader who can answer questions and keep people on track.
Good luck to all who are going to use the book.
- This is a good diet book
By ANR0SCFHBOSWG on 2008-06-01
I found this book to be very helpful, easy to read and easy to use. The active style the author takes to get you focused on life changes is the boost I needed to begin a weight loss program. This book gives you things to think about, ways to change what you think and feel about eating and many activities to help you along the way. It is not a DIET. It is a workbook to keep you on track while you change your eating habits. My only criticism is that it was not set up to use more than once.
- Great Weight Loss Tool
By A1QFRSJKGY3UGJ on 2008-06-20
I have the original book and this workbook is a great supplement to it. This weight loss plan based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is the first plan that's ever worked for me. If you have a food addiction, this plan retrains your brain and I'm amazed at the results so far. Definately recommend it to everyone.
- It really works!
By A9K8TK7X95GNV on 2008-06-21
My doctor suggested that I buy either the book or this workbook. Since I like to make lists and check boxes, I chose the workbook. In eight weeks of dieting (10 weeks of following Beck's program), I've lost 16 pounds, and my eating habits have changed forever. The beauty of her plan is that it forces you to reorient your relationship with food. The most effective concepts for me have been: the rule that you must eat everything sitting down; eating slowly and mindfully; and the revolutionary (to me) concept that hunger is not an emergency, but a mild discomfort that will eventually be alleviated when it's time to eat again. When I finished with the workbook after six weeks I made my own. I highly recommend this workbook.
