amazing! STOP wasting your money on diets and diet clubs that DON'T work!!! - By: Mrs. J. S. Mcgrace, 01 Jan 2009 
brilliant book! & fantastic FREE e-mail support from the WONDERFUL chocolate fairies!! i'm very slowly losing weight, but that's no longer my goal-- i'm just enjoying my life for once!! i've accepted my current size, & bought some lovely new clothes-- mostly cheap, but nice , from supermarkets, primark & matalan. i'm taking care with my skin & make-up (i never used to bother) but most satisfying is that i'm choosing better quality food, eating more appropriate portions, & really enjoying exercise that suits me & my lifestyle (no more punishing myself at the gym )! so, i'm experiencing clearer skin, better sleep, & much more energy!!
honestly, these ladies should be discovered by the bbc!! their approach is holistic, simple, & revolutionary. BUT the diet industry will probably PAY to keep them SILENT!!! cos they'll blow the lid off the million-making farce of an industry that enslaves millionsin a no-win situation-- i really , really hope that these 2 women do get discovered, & their message heard!! (any journalists out there--please getin touch with the authors)!!
i have no personal reason for saying this! i don't know the authors, & i'm not involvedin 'beyond chocolate'in any way, (apart from receiving their free e-mails). i'm just glad to have discovered, at last, an alternative to shelling out to diet club after diet club, & repetitively FAILING!
so, READ the book! it's ACE!!
Freedom from dieting - By: Annette, 16 Dec 2008 
I would highly recommend this book to a friend. As I read this book it was as if it had been written just for me. Almost all my bad experiences of dietingin the past were listed here, so I know I am not alone. For the first time I can see a way out of over eating. I really enjoyed this book, it has inspired me to change my relationship with food. It is easy to read as information is broken into small chunks. I now feel that I am not alonein how I have used food to try & control my emotions. A must read for anyone who has discovered that diets don't work & are looking for another way.
great book, easy to read and pratical - By: E. Moreland, 14 Dec 2008 
Look into their courses too. I have a daughter & was inspired to go on their course because I am aware of the difficulties young girls particularly encounter with body imagein today's society & wanted to make sure that I was being the best role model I could for her. We are bombarded with media images that aren't real & we all spend much of our time worrying about what we look like & what we eat & consequently we have forgotten what our bodies really need & how amazing they are & how we need to treat ourselves & our bodies with the respect they deserve. This book (along with their course) helps to reconnect women with their intuitions about what you really need to be healthy.
Life changing. - By: Chloe Baby, 12 Dec 2008 
If you have ever dieted, please buy this book. It really has changed my life! Not often you can say that of a book. It has changed my mindset towards food & my body. I am a happier person since I read beyond chocolate.
The only book on food and diets I re read - By: Elizabeth C, 12 Dec 2008 
This is the best book on deal with eating issues I have ever read, & I have clocked up 100s! For me, the most helpful guideline is 'be your own guru'. The guidelines are just that, suggestions & it is not about following them perfectly but finding what works for you. Its all about progress, not perfection. This is the only book on food & diets that I read over & over.
