Do you feel like your appetite for food is completely out of control? If so, you will understand the misery and obsession this usually brings. You may believe the answer is simply to try harder to control your eating. This doesn't work! If it did, you'd have done it by now. I'm here to tell you there is another way.

I lost nearly a decade of my life to binge eating. Today I am an eating disorder psychotherapist, who works alongside people who want to develop a healthy relationship with food and body image. This book brings together what I learned on my personal journey, as well as through helping others. I share what we need to understand, and do, to break free from the cycle of overeating.

You will learn:

  • How trying to control your appetite leads to out-of-control bingeing.
  • How your intentions can help (or hinder) you.
  • How to use the RALIC method to free yourself from compulsive eating.

If you've had enough of battling with bingeing, and if you are ready to end the war within, give this book a chance to show you how!

Sarah has a wonderful way of explaining the psychology behind our relationship with food in a way that feels both evidence-based and deeply compassionate. Rather than focusing on blame or willpower, she helps you understand the underlying reasons why eating can become so difficult, and that shift in perspective is incredibly refreshing.

The audiobook is warm, engaging and easy to listen to, and Sarah’s narration adds an extra layer of authenticity. I found myself reflecting on my own assumptions about food and eating, and I can see how this book could help so many people feel understood while offering practical ways to move forward. I’d highly recommend it to anyone who struggles with over-eating or binge eating, or to professionals wanting a compassionate, psychologically informed perspective.

Really enjoyed the book and will definitely be recommending it to others.

I can only recommend this to anyone struggling with overeating as I found the book very helpful alfeady as I was listening to it – not in a drastically radical way, but a more subtle, reassuring change of perspective on the whole thing as it made me think a lot about my thought processes and my beliefs around food (and be less afraid of them). It made me feel less stressed about what I eat specifically and instead become more aware of what I am telling myself and my attitude towards food that I have not noticed before. I will definitely come back for a re-read/re-listen. Plus, I loved the author reading it herself, it truly felt she was there, with me, also her voice is very pleasant to listen to and her reading speed just right.

gentle, refreshing, comforting, helpful approach

I felt like this book was speaking directly to me. It was refreshing to listen to a book written by a professional who came across as so human. She has been there and recovered herself and shows a kind of insight I have struggled to find in therapists I have tried to help me with this. There are practical tools but wasn’t preachy. I really felt the author was in my corner whereas I have previously felt very judged by other people about this. I have already started practicing the RALIC METHOD and it really works! It inspired me to check out her YouTube channel and I found some real gems over there. I hope Sarah writes more books.

I surprised myself how quickly I listened to this audio book - I kept wanting to hear more. It kept my attention and the amount of detail was vast and fascinating. I found the author's voice comforting to listen to and made it easy to want to continue to listen. I will go back to a number of the sections to refresh once I consider the suggested exercises. Highly recommend for those who have this issue or if you have a loved one or friend who does.

Insightful & thought-provoking. Good examples & exercises.

I came to this book as someone who's been a long-time advocate of intuitive eating, so I wasn't sure how much new ground it could cover for me. It covered a lot. I Can't Stop Eating takes the principles of intuitive eating and deepens them with something I've often found missing elsewhere: a genuinely compassionate, psychotherapeutically-informed understanding of the emotional drivers behind our relationship with food and our bodies.

Written from the perspective of a specialist psychotherapist, it's both warm and rigorous. There's a huge amount of content packed in here, but it never feels overwhelming, everything is explained in plain English, with real care for the reader. It's the kind of book that meets you where you are rather than prescribing at you.

The Audible edition is excellent. The narration is wonderfully clear, the pacing is spot on, and despite how much ground the book covers, it's easy to follow and absorb as you listen.

I'd put this comfortably in my top ten self-help books of all time. Whether you're new to these ideas or, like me, have lived with them for years, there's something genuinely valuable here.

Therapy informed, non shaming, and fills a gap
