Love Food & Live Well by Chantel Hobbs

Carolyn B. Thompson, President, TRAINING SYSTEMS INC, just finished reading:Just reading the Acknowledgements I loved Chantel already! She has a heart for others that was given to her by a loving God.  Because of this she wants to connect with people and when you read you feel like she's siting next to you talking.

She says the way to live well through eating is:
  • surrender the pain of food being the enemy to God every day
  • eat clean (foods that give the maximum energy w/reasonable calorie count) 80% of each day and 20% eat whatever you want (even if you think it's bad for you) - doing this daily is the key (as opposed to 80% being weekdays and 20% being weekends) so you don't feel unhappy w/yourself for overeating and deprived for many days while eating clean
  • believe that exercise is to live, just like food is

She gives lots of personal examples during her own work to recover a healthy love relationsip with food (and subsequent weight loss) and, refreshingly, many specific descriptions of how different foods provide maximum energy and why.
