The New York Times bestselling author of The Beck Diet Solution teams up with her daughter and colleague at the Beck Institute for Cognitive Behavior to teach readers how to think their way thin, offering practical, proven tools for escaping common diet traps for good.

Most diet programs work at first. But then life happens—stress, bad habits, holidays, travel—and we revert to bad habits, and the weight comes back. In this invaluable book, Dr. Judith Beck offers the solution to break free from these common diet traps and keep the weight off for life.

Dr. Beck explains that when it comes to losing weight, it’s not just about what we eat. It’s also about how we think. To consistently eat differently, we must learn to think differently. Diets fail us because they don’t offer effective strategies for overcoming the common traps—emotional eating, social pressure, dining out—that can derail us. Now, she and her daughter, Deborah Beck Busis, share the techniques they have successfully used with thousands of clients, revealing how to overcome the thoughts and behaviors that have held us back. With The Diet Trap Solution, readers on any diet regimen can learn to identify their specific diet traps and create action plans to strengthen their “resistance muscle”—making losing weight easy, sustainable, and enjoyable.

Title: Best diet book ever!!
Review: This has to be the best book about losing weight and keeping it off. The author is right, you must train your brain and it is so easy to follow.To write down on index cards (which I’m doing) in a notebook or on your phone why you want to lose weight, how you will feel if you eat unplanned foods etc helps so much, it really is training your brain and for the short time I have been reading this book, it’s helping like nothing has ever helped before.As the author explains, we have to get real! This is (from past experiences) how we will feel if we eat badly.Also, a lot of info about how we sabotage ourselves or allow others too and how to stop it/cope.You have to read it as of course there’s much moreto it.Train your brain to react differently.

Title: Excellent!! Easy to follow and use!!!
Review: I’m actually excited to start dieting again after reading this book. I love, love, love that these are ACTUAL TECHNIQUES to RETRAIN YOUR BRAIN so you don’t fall into the same diet traps that you’ve fallen into over, and over, and over throughout the years. This book is easy to read and you can start implementing strategies right away. Plus, the author is amazingly smart and has you master each step before rushing into the next. This is critical because it helps build confidence and hope in the process instead of becoming overwhelmed right away and giving up, again. I’m SO thankful I bought this book!!!

Title: Not for newbies
Review: It's a good book with solid advice. However when I bought it, I was new to the program and didn't understand which book to get to start out. I got this one because it was the newest book. However, it's geared towards people who have already done the basic program and need further advice.If you are new to the program, get the Beck Diet Solution (the pink book). This book is best for people who already have a diet they like, are working with a dietician, or don't want diet advice. This was her first book and has the basic program laid out for you. The pink workbook supplements the main pink book, but is entirely unnecessary.If you don't know what diet to follow and want diet advice, get the Beck Diet for Life (the green book). It has everything in the pink book, plus dietary advice. Beck said she was hearing from people that were failing due to choosing ill-advised diets, and this book is a response to that.

Title: Good ideas!
Review: I bought the paperback edition and find for me the text is a little Iight and harder on my eyes to read. The book itself is very enlightening. I actually got the book from the library but purchased my own copy to keep and reference.

Title: Good book terrible packaging by amazon
Review: Terrible packaging job by amazon. Two paperbacks and a box of toaster tongs sent in a padded envelope. The books appear used despite never having been opened.The Beck is a very engaging writer with a common sense approach to weight loss. I really like the ideas in The Diet Trap Solution. I believe it to be very doable.

Title: Engage Your Brain
Review: I've tried dieting so many times in the past, always fighting myself instead of engaging my brain and learning to train myself so the process gets easier. Persistence and confidence are still required, but it's so much better when every day gets easier (like it does following the diet trap solutions) than it did before on any other plan when each day got harder, leading to ultimate failure. This book has given me my plan for life. I am so grateful to the authors for writing just what I needed. Thank you!

Review: Diets aren't about food. They're about how you think about food. This is book helps get to the root of the problem.This is the foundation for many of the new diet apps/programs. It doesn't prescribe a specific eating plan but it can teach you how to control your eating successfully.

Review: I am a big fan of Beck's Diet Solution and wondered if this would add anything new. The first part is a summary of what she calls the Foundation Strategies. This is a summary of her earlier work and will be very familiar if you own her other books. I found it a useful and concise refresher of her approach, which I believe is 100% effective - if you use it consistently.And there's the key - and the reason for the second part of the book. Losing weight is hard - but keeping it off is even harder. Finding the motivation to do what we know we need to do, after the initial novelty of losing weight has work off, can be nearly impossible for many of us. This book gets to the very heart of why we regain, and offers clear strategies to avoid the diet traps that derail us.Beck's work is based on CBT - changing the way we talk to ourselves. Working through the earlier books I experienced the incredible feeling of hearing my positive self talk pop into my head at the exact moment I was about to chuck my food plan out of the window. The second part of this book offers powerful self talk for the moments when it is so easy to think it's not worth it and give up.Beck's approach is not a quick fix.She encourages slow weight loss and is very strong on the need to incorporate moderate, planned portions of junk food into your diet to avoid the diet/binge cycle. This is a balanced, sustainable and powerful approach to lifetime maintenance of a healthy weight.Beck's strategies helped me lose 3 stone in 2011, and to keep most of it off for the last four years. It's been far from perfect, but I am slimmer, fitter and healthier now in my 50s than I was 30 years ago. This latest book is the final piece of the jigsaw, putting in place the strong habits and forward planning needed to avoid the common diet traps of stress, emotional eating, social pressure and eating out.If you are already familiar with Beck's work, but struggle to implement the strategies consistently, this is the book you have been waiting for. if you're new to the Beck approach, this book has all the information you need to get started, though the earlier work goes into the foundation strategies in more detail, which some may find helpful.In a world where quick fixes and extreme diet plans have left us fatter than ever, Judith Beck is a voice of reason. Her approach is not easy - but it does get easier as time goes on. Highly recommended, especially for any of us have ever wondered how we can be so successful at the diet one week and find it impossible to get back on track the next.........

Review: This is the second time I have purposely read through The Diet Trap Solution. It is one that you can keep referring back to when you find your eating going out of control.This is another book that I was reading through with my friend, as we try to encourage each other to get healthier and lose weight.The book goes through the psychology of dieting and why most diets fail - not because of the diets themselves, but rather because of ourselves. There are various core strategies that is recommended you do every day (for example, reading through your Advantages List of why it is important to you to lose weight). There are reminder cards for you to carry around with you to help prepare and prevent your sabotaging behaviour, and you are encouraged to think in advance about what normally happens to sabotage your weight loss, and what strategy you will use to mitigate it this time.At the start of the book there is a quick quiz to determine which traps affect you the most, and then the book goes through each of eight traps in groups of two: Internal Traps, Interpersonal Traps, External Traps, and Universal Traps. For me, I ticked 'yes' to almost all of them, but even if you don't, I'd recommend you at least skim read through the other chapters, even if you don't pay as much attention to the ones that affect you.I like this book because it is no nonsense, Again, it's not a magic pill that will solve all your weightloss problems, but it helps focus your mind. Whilst some of the suggestions seem like common sense, I dare say that if you perfectly enacted all of them in your daily life, you wouldn't be needing to lose weight.
