Quotes from The Beck Diet Solution

“Feeling overwhelmed by the requirements of your diet     Feeling deprived     Feeling discouraged when you don’t lose weight consistently or lose as much weight as you had hoped     Feeling stressed by other life problems”
― Judith S. Beck, quote from The Beck Diet Solution

“Choose a nutritious diet.     Create time and energy for dieting.     Plan what and when you’re going to eat.     Seek support.     Deal with disappointment.     View overeating as a temporary problem that you can solve.     Cope with hunger and cravings.     Eliminate emotional eating.     Give yourself credit.”

― Judith S. Beck, quote from The Beck Diet Solution

Popular quotes

“А может тебе ещё дать ключ от квартиры, где деньги лежат?”
― Ilya Ilf, quote from The Twelve Chairs

“I don't like when I can't control what reality is doing. Which is unfortunate because reality works independently of the things I want, and I have only a limited number of ways to influence it, none of which are guaranteed to work. I still want to keep tabs on reality, though. Just in case it tries to do anything sneaky. It makes me feel like I'm contributing. The illusion of control makes the helplessness seem more palatable. And when that illusion is taken away, I panic.”
― Allie Brosh, quote from Hyperbole and a Half: Unfortunate Situations, Flawed Coping Mechanisms, Mayhem, and Other Things That Happened

“It is unearned love--the love that goes before, that greets us on the way. It's the help you receive when you have no bright ideas left, when you are empty and desperate and have discovered that your best thinking and most charming charm have failed you. Grace is the light or electricity or juice or breeze that takes you from that isolated place and puts you with others who are as startled and embarrassed and eventually grateful as you are to be there.”
― Anne Lamott, quote from Traveling Mercies: Some Thoughts on Faith

“Men act and women appear. Men look at women. Women watch themselves being looked at. This determines not only most relations between men and women but also the relation of women to themselves. The surveyor of woman in herself is male: the surveyed is female. Thus she turns herself into an object of vision: a sight.”
― John Berger, quote from Ways of Seeing

“Even chitlins smell good to a starving man.”
― Greg Iles, quote from The Quiet Game

About BookQuoters

BookQuoters is a community of passionate readers who enjoy sharing the most meaningful, memorable and interesting quotes from great books. As the world communicates more and more via texts, memes and sound bytes, short but profound quotes from books have become more relevant and important. For some of us a quote becomes a mantra, a goal or a philosophy by which we live. For all of us, quotes are a great way to remember a book and to carry with us the author’s best ideas.

We thoughtfully gather quotes from our favorite books, both classic and current, and choose the ones that are most thought-provoking. Each quote represents a book that is interesting, well written and has potential to enhance the reader’s life. We also accept submissions from our visitors and will select the quotes we feel are most appealing to the BookQuoters community.

Founded in 2023, BookQuoters has quickly become a large and vibrant community of people who share an affinity for books. Books are seen by some as a throwback to a previous world; conversely, gleaning the main ideas of a book via a quote or a quick summary is typical of the Information Age but is a habit disdained by some diehard readers. We feel that we have the best of both worlds at BookQuoters; we read books cover-to-cover but offer you some of the highlights. We hope you’ll join us.
