Bright Line Eating by Susan Peirce Thompson #2191

Today’s book: Bright Line Eating by Susan Peirce Thompson—a neuroscience-based, no-nonsense guide to overcoming food addiction and building lasting freedom through clarity, structure, and identity.

Here’s your 1-minute summary:

• Food addiction is real. Sugar and flour hijack your brain—especially the parts that control impulse and decision-making.
• Willpower isn’t the problem—structure is. Decision fatigue breaks you down. Bright lines eliminate ambiguity and protect your energy.
• The four bright lines: no sugar, no flour, meals only (no snacking), and specific quantities.
• Identity is key. You’re not “trying to be healthy”—you are a Bright Line eater. Think like it. Live like it.
• Freedom comes from discipline. With clear boundaries, your brain relaxes, cravings fade, and peace returns.

You don’t need more willpower, you need brighter lines. What boundary will you commit to today?
