Publisher's summary
Why are certain women able to stay thin and never, ever diet? What is different between these naturally thin women and those that can only struggle to thinness through obsessive diet-like behaviors? The book explains the significant body of science which finally reveals the differences between the brains of thin and overweight women. It details the alterations in the brain that occur from years of overeating and dieting - and how to reverse them. In a personal and accessible style, the author guides the listener through an easy to follow step-by-step program based on cognitive behavioral therapy. The book's program does not include any food restrictions, or recipes. It does not prescribe any specific exercise program as its sole objective is to restore the brain to its healthy relationship with food.
You will learn how modern foods and ancient survival mechanisms have interacted to create an obesity epidemic. "Famine" brain, high-stress lifestyles, reduced pleasure from food and other factors are examined. Once you understand how your brain has inadvertently gone awry, you will appreciate this sensible approach to "rewiring" you brain back to its natural state - the thin woman's brain.

Placing conditions on our lives and our happiness has become the norm: We must establish a career before looking for a relationship. We must find love before feeling fulfilled. We must feel stressed out until we finish everything on our to-do list. But by far, the most common conditions we put on ourselves revolve around our weight - no love until we lose the weight, no pursuing a dream until we lose the weight, no happiness until we lose the weight. But now there’s a better option.

Common sense tells us that to lose weight, we must eat less and exercise more. But somehow we get stalled. We start on a weight-loss program with good intentions but cannot stay on track. Neither the countless fad diets, nor the annual spending of $50 billion on weight loss helps us feel better or lose weight. Too many of us are in a cycle of shame and guilt. We spend countless hours worrying about what we ate or if we exercised enough, blaming ourselves for actions that we can't undo.

I have listened several times.
loved the book. l love that she gives several examples of ways to become aware of your eating habits. I love the habit exercises she explains. I use several of these tips now, you have to make a conscious effort to try. I refer to the lessons here frequently. it's helped me to have a more calm, loving, and accepting mindset as well.

A new weight loss paradigm!
I first purchased the audio version of this book and its message resonated so strongly with me during the first listen, I immediately started it over and listened through a second time! I have read dozens of diet books, both practical, how-to types and general theory about nutrition and weight loss. Every one of them had left me with unanswered questions. Why do gain the weight back every time I lose it? Why do I have to spend every minute of every day obsessing about my next meal or snack in order to stay on a program? Why am I finding it harder and harder to stay committed each time I attempt weight loss…again??
Dilia Suriel answered all those questions for me and opened my eyes to the real underlying issue – my brain. Clearly, I don’t think like a naturally thin woman. This book explained how my brain-body connection can be radically adjusted so that I, like a naturally thin woman, can joyfully eat for pleasure and nutrition without fear of overeating or needing food for comfort, reward, or sedation. "The Thin Woman's Brain" is about the rewiring process, not the simply the mechanics of mindful eating. This book is NOT a one-trick-pony. Yes, mindfulness is discussed as one of many tools and behaviours to help achieve the rewiring, but it is only one element of a comprehensive, scientifically-based behavioural training program.
I have barely begun to synthesize and practice the methods set out in this book and I am already experiencing a great deal less anxiety about food and eating, as well as new-found confidence in my ability to successfully take off, and keep off, my excess weight. I have also purchased the Kindle version as I know I will be reading and re-reading sections of this book many times over. This is no quick-fix, lose 10 pounds in a week nonsense – the concepts in this book are the real deal.
Buy this book in audio and print, read it twice, and stop that lose-gain cycle forever. Thanks to Dilia, I now believe it’s possible.

Taking willpower out of the equation...
I really liked this book because it explained how to think like a "naturally" thin woman, not a "dieting" thin women. Great concepts that are very convincing in an outline form for you to follow. I think the audiobook is great, however, I'm going to get the written book as well, so that it will be easier to refer back to often.

Transformational!
What did you love best about The Thin Woman's Brain?
I always thought that eating without a diet or counting calories was possible, but I just didn't know how. Now, I have the tools to learn how. After listening to the book twice, I purchased the Dilia's app, and now have 3 weekly check-ins with her and a group as well. This is really making a big difference. Thank you, Dilia! Gina H.

Would Work Better in Written Form
I like the ideas that were presented (even if some of them were obvious). However, this is more of a program than a read and because of that I would rather be able to turn to a page or section and just review that. Use your book marks if you want to get something more out of the audio version.

Life-changing!!
The use of scientific evidence is what really got through to me. She was able to prove her theory to me. After listening to this book, I've totally changed my diet and lost over 50 pounds so far. The best part is that I no longer feel bitter about not "being able" to eat fattening foods. I simply choose not to and am happier for it.

Interesting
I found some good ideas and good disciplines to use - I found the narration a bit annoying but clear. I enjoyed most of the book and then was disappointed at the last section. It's like it was almost a disclaimer on all the previous material - the insulin resistant woman cannot apply theses unless she does go on a strict regime which is the antithesis of the majority of the book - unsure if that is the authors intent - I will try the disciplines any way with great optimism :)!

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, this cvan be applied to so many of life's challenges.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I think the bit on breaking the cycle of shame. I actually cried thinking of the way I was treating myself. I was my own bully.

Invaluable. Changed my relationship with food imme
If you could sum up The Thin Woman's Brain in three words, what would they be?
Researched, science-based, life changing
What did you like best about this story?
Dilia wrote this book with a lot of personal research and cited studies. She explained how and why we can become addicted to food and gave specific ways to end thisnaddiction. I have completely changed how I relate to food in 3 weeks and I am seeing results immediately.
What does Kate Fotopoulos bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
It is like having a personal.coach explain to you the situation of overeating you are in and give specific examples of how to rewire your brain to eat like a thin woman.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Understanding you are addicted is the first step. Understanding it's not your fault is the second. Understanding how to end the addiction is amazing.
Any additional comments?
Wonderful life changing book!
