An unflinching and deeply reported look at the realities of
binge-eating disorder from a rising culture commentator and writer
for Vogue. Millions of us use restrictive diets, intermittent
fasting, IV therapies, and Ozempic abuse to shrink until we are
sample-size acceptable. But for the 30 million Americans who live
with eating eating disorders, it isn’t just about less. More,
Please is a chronicle of a lifelong fixation with food—its power
to soothe, to comfort, to offer a fleeting escape from the outside
world—as well as an examination of the ways in which compulsory
thinness, diet culture, and the seductive promise of “wellness”
have resulted in warping countless Americans’ relationship with
healthy eating. Melding memoir, reportage, and in-depth interviews
with some of the most prominent and knowledgeable commentators
currently writing about body shape and fatness, “emotional
eating” and our disorders with food—Jennifer Weiner, Marisa
Meltzer, Virgie Tovar, Leslie Jamison , and others—Emma Specter
explores binge-eating disorder as both a personal problem and a
societal one. In More, Please she provides a context, a history,
and a language for what it means to always want more than you’ll
allow yourself to have.
