Are you doing battle with your body? Do you desperately want to end your obsession with food, emotional eating and yo-yo dieting and come to a place of deep peace? Are you ready to begin living in a new and empowered way, not using food to keep you small?
Struggles with food and emotional eating are often a signal that something deeper is going on, a kind of soul-call. Love or Diet will help you to follow that soul-call safely and explore your eating patterns in a way that can lead to complete freedom and peacefulness with food.
In Love or Diet, nutritionist and editor of www.nurturewithlove.com, Ani Richardson, aims to change your relationship with food, but more importantly, change your relationship with your deepest Self, because when you are willing to courageously look at what you are attempting to stuff down with food, you can begin to heal and shine light on the perceived darkness in our lives, one delicious ray at a time.

I have been on the path to self-love for many years now but seldom have I come across a book whose voice touches me like Ani Richardson’s in Love or Diet. Perhaps it’s because Ani walks her talk and when she speaks you can feel her right beside you. Perhaps it’s because she has risen from the ashes but remembers where she came from, or perhaps, it’s because her heart is so unconditional that you fall into it gratefully. Whatever the reason, this book is like having your BFF, your guardian angel and a box of Kleenex by your side. We all act out our unhealthy relationship with ourselves in a myriad of ways. It doesn’t matter what your poison is, what matters is that you stop hating yourself and start loving yourself, no matter what. In other words, if you must eat that box of chocolates, go ahead, but don’t punish yourself for it. Ani speaks first-hand to the insidious complexities of using food to hide, numb, stuff and hurt ourselves, and with ‘fierce wisdom and enduring compassion’ (her words) she helps us to find the way out through self-love. I LOVED this book and I am now and forever a fan of Ani’s. For years to come, I will delight in recommending Love or Diet to my readers and clients. Anyone who reads it will know how fortunate they are to have Ani as their guide. ~ Mimi Shannon.

I imagine that Ani's openness, sensitivity and honesty regarding her own journey will inspire, gently motivate and encourage her readers to make changes that support their own health and wellbeing. She has used her background working in nutrition and helping people with eating disorders as well as her own experience to create a supportive plan - and enjoyable read - to help readers remember how to love themselves and improve their body image and love lives. ~ -Eve Menezes Cunningham, psychology, health and wellbeing journalist, counselor, coach, complementary therapist and owner at The Wellbeing at Work Con
Love Or Diet is a must read for anyone who struggles with their food choices and body image. Ani Richardson's much needed holistic perspective on emotional eating sheds light on why we eat to harm rather than heal ourselves. The emotional and practical tools she shares will help you well on your way to a healthy, happy relationship with yourself and with food. Packed full of insight and inspiration, Love Or Diet gives you the opportunity to step off the overeating/diet roller coaster and experience self-understanding and healing on a completely new level. ~ Saskia Fraser, Raw Food Mentor & Life Coach.
