Summary

We Have All Been Struck with Hunger in the middle of the night and set out to prowl the kitchen looking for a midnight snack. But when eating at night causes feelings of anxiety and guilt, insomnia, or interrupted sleep that develop into a distressing pattern, these experiences may constitute a condition called night eating syndrome, or NES -- a condition believed to affect as many as 6 million Americans. This book, the first written specifically to help people struggling with NES, offers a step-by-step strategy for managing and overcoming this problem. While working through this book, you will first learn to identify the signs of NES, and then use journaling exercises to discover what automatic thoughts trigger your night eating. Once you can recognize these thoughts as they occur, you'll discover how to change NES behaviors, replacing them with healthy life choices. Tips throughout the book guide you to making healthier food choices and establishing more structured meals. Book jacket.
