ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This book could not have been written without the generous support of my family and friends who I thank with humility and a twinkle of Love. I am especially grateful to and want to thank the women and men who worked with me and were willing to let go of diet dogma to use the intuitive tools to lose weight. Sincere appreciation also goes to the many people who contributed their knowledge to the book and to those I interviewed who were open about eating hot buttons and their struggles with dieting. Thank you to the celebrity chefs for the delicious comfort food recipes and to Dr. Judy Kuriansky who suggested this be published. Without these people, I would not have a book. And importantly, I would like to thank my cousin Linda and my brother Ralph Cohen who have been my heart through this process.
