Even tennis pros suffer from binge eating

Monica Seles has recently published a book about eating issues -- "Getting a Grip: On My Body, My Mind, My Self." (Read The New York Times' write up of the book.) The book reminds us that our relationship with food so often reflects our relationship with our self -- and that sometimes trainers, nutritionists and diets can't get us "back on track" -- because the real issue is finding internal harmony. 

By listening to her body's needs -- whether for carbs, or for a lighter exercise routine -- Monica was finally able to lose the weight that she was struggling with, and find peace.
