Geneen Roth is the author of ten books, including New York Times bestsellers Women Food and God, When Food Is Love and Lost and Found. Roth's pioneering books were among the first to link compulsive eating and perpetual dieting with deeply personal and spiritual issues that go far beyond food, weight, and body image. Over the past forty years, she has worked with thousands of women in her groundbreaking workshops and retreats based on the concepts of her books. She lives in California with her husband Matt; and Izzy the fabulous, eating-disordered dog.
