Food: A Love Story

When Kate seeks help for her yo-yo dieting and weight gain, she's looking for more than just another carb-counting quick fix. Tired of both herself and an endless parade of nutrition and fitness advice, Kate doubts that any diet can help her overcome her compulsive eating habits to find the perfect weight. But the seemingly ordinary "life coach" who agrees to take Kate on as a client, has more than Kate's waistline in mind. This unconventional approach is a complete overhaul of body, mind, and soul, causing Kate to question some of her most cherished beliefs, and let go of past regrets along with mealtime baggage. As Kate's mentor guides her into unknown territory, they uncover an aspect of eating Kate had long ago forgottenjoy. Throwing all rules and restrictions out the window, Kate is led by one simple principle, "Eat with love, what's grown with love, prepared with love and served with love."
