The Art of Overeating is a satire on our diet-obsessed culture released by psychotherapist Leslie Landis who believes humor is a better way to deal with eating issues than shaming someone. Her husband, Martin, is a world-class overeater and has lost 25 lbs. since the launch of her book at Barnes & Noble. He didn’t want
to be the poster boy for overeating! It is a beautifully illustrated hardback and sells for $9.95 For more info, visit; www.TheArtofOvereating.com or purchase at amazon.com.

Chief Blonde says: The pictures and remarks in the Art of Overeating by Leslie Landis combine for hilarity! “Always stand by the kitchen door so you can grab the whole tray of hors d’oeuveres before the server gets to the other guests. Insist that you are taking care of a special group of elderly or infirm people.” or “Overeating is a noble and unselfish act. As you put away gargantuan amounts of food, those sharing the meal with you will be so put off by your example that they will order less, eat less and pass on dessert.” It’s the ridiculousness of it all that makes you realize the true obsession that we have in this culture with food. A perfect perfect gift for a woman over 45 who would much rather not struggle with the “food” issue everyday!
