Real Food Has Curves

I haven't read this entire book yet, but I've read a sample on my Kindle. I'll probably buy the book next week. Here's a couple of videos from their blog from their book tour. Here's another video they did for Guideposts magazine. Here's more about the book.
The seven steps are:
1. Learn the secrets to satisfaction. Rediscover the basic pleasure of food by uncovering the real reasons you eat. Plan on spending about a week here, really settling into the ideas, which might seem simple at first but are in fact revolutionary.
2. Make informed choices. Learn how to recognize and savor real food. Some of these changes are a little more dramatic. Here's where you really come to terms with what's real and what's not. Spend about two weeks here, erasing old patterns to create new ones.
3. Relish what you eat. Understand why a diet is never the solution -- and how our abundance is a much a curse as it is a blessing. Stick with these ideas for about a week.
4. Detox your palate from useless salt, fats, and sugars. Participate in a mini program to reorient your whole sense of taste. You're not going to get away from fat, salt, and sugars; you're going to demand that they give you more flavor. Spend two weeks here and complete the program with a real, satisfying hunger.
5. Take the long view. Dive into a week of attitude adjustments and real world solutions that will encourage you to eat freely but mindfully.
6. Upgrade your choices. Spend a good two weeks learning how to find real food in the world around you.
7. Treat yourself well. Finally, the last week will round out your journey with a short course on the three ways you can treat yourself better every day: breakfast, snacks and dessert.
