'I want to press this book into the hands of every woman.' Turia Pitt Our constant fixation with losing weight is exhausting. We're stuck in a vicious diet cycle, gaining weight after each failed attempt and never feeling good enough. Diet culture and unattainable #bodygoals contribute to binge and emotional eating, burnout and overwhelm.

In Your Weight is not the Problem, nutritionist and dietitian Lyndi Cohen offers a simple plan to break free from yo-yo diets with easy, healthy habits you can stick to no matter how busy life gets. She uncovers the real reason diets never work (hint: it's not your lack of willpower), and why the BMI is BS. You'll learn how to: - Break free from disordered eating to find freedom with food. - Read your body's cues instead of the scale to find your 'happy weight'. - Declutter the diet rules that keep you in a spiral of shame and self-loathing. - Feel comfortable in your skin and have the energy to do the things you love. Liberate yourself from food guilt and self-blame with a new approach to health that doesn't rely on willpower or counting calories because you can't live a full life on an empty stomach.
Is obsessing about food making you miserable and anxious? Are you an emotional eater? A binge eater? Do you have a mental list of 'bad' foods? Have you been on a diet for as long as you can remember? When you lose weight, do you always put it back on? Do you go to bed feeling guilty, promising 'tomorrow will be different'? Are you in control of every part of your life, except food? In just seven chapters of straight-talking, friendly advice, Lyndi Cohen shares the tools to heal your relationship with food and release you from fixating on your size, even if you've been dieting for years. Learn how to listen to your hunger and calm your mind. Lyndi is one of Australia's most popular dietitians, known as The Nude Nutritionist of Channel 9's TODAY show.

There is nothing wrong with your weight. Nor is there anything wrong with the way you eat. Weight and food are symptoms. They are like the check engine light in your car. It is there for your benefit, to alert you to a problem under the hood. Once the repair is done, the light automatically switches off. Similarly, once you've addressed the reasons your body is taking a size that isn't serving you then you will see transformations happen without even trying. What you think, feel and believe become the physical body you live in. Physical transformation happens by treating the mental, spiritual, emotional and physical roots of overeating. Diets treat only the symptoms. This is precisely why 95% of dieters will regain their weight. When you understand the alchemy of how thoughts, emotions and beliefs become physical tissues you unlock the tools necessary to reclaim your health and confidence. Body Alchemy is a practical approach to treating the root cause of overeating without ever dieting again and none of the BS. There are plenty of eating disorder books, admonishing readers to take a warm bath or call a friend when they feel a binge coming on. These useless suggestions draw eye rolls from conscious readers, intuitively knowing a distraction technique is not going to solve the real problem. On the other hand you may have read suggestions like, "You just need to be happy and learn to love yourself no matter what." To which you may want to reply, "Yeah, that sounds all well and good, but could you tell me HOW?" This book is the pragmatic reply to that question. It throws out all of the woo-woo spiritual bypassing and includes only what is absolutely essential to get you on the fast track to your happiest body ever so you can ditch the struggle with weight and move into your greatness NOW. Body Alchemy isn't a diet at all, but rather a powerful formula that delivers life changing results. "This is a life changing book that will meet you where you are at to help you get where you want to be: not through a gimmick or fad or through trying to sell you something or telling you what to do (which is often times we want but not what works) but through self love and awareness. Once you have these two things, anything and everything is possible. The book teaches this in many ways. This book is a genuine analysis and guide on how to be your best self and Melanie is your advocate, your cheerleader, and your coach, providing wisdom, knowledge, experience and freedom along with practical exercises, straightforward homework and clear direction on how to do so; she shows the honest journey of loving yourself and losing what no longer serves you not through control or force but through self wisdom, consciousness and openness. She reminds the power of joy and helps eliminate the overwhelming amount of struggle we often feel. Through Melanie's guidance, it becomes easy to understand how the body and mind can get unbalanced and where and how to understand the root of the problem to change it. The book is motivating, empowering and wise. It is a book that is simple yet complex in honoring all that we are as human beings. It stretches the brain and the spirit. It is equally practical as it is spiritual. It is inspiring and awakening. It is a healing piece of writing that betters the self and collective all in one." -Shawna Schenk, Yoga With Shawna, Founder San Diego Yoga Festival
A Cambridge obesity researcher upends everything we thought we knew about calories and calorie-counting. Calorie information is ubiquitous. On packaged food, restaurant menus, and online recipes we see authoritative numbers that tell us the calorie count of what we're about to consume. And we treat these numbers as gospel—counting, cutting, intermittently consuming and, if you believe some 'experts' out there, magically making them disappear. We all know, and governments advise, that losing weight is just a matter of burning more calories than we consume. But it's actually all wrong. In Why Calories Don't Count, Dr. Giles Yeo, an obesity researcher at Cambridge University, challenges the conventional model and demonstrates that all calories are not created equal. He addresses why popular diets succeed, at least in the short term, and why they ultimately fail, and what your environment has to do with your bodyweight. Once you understand that calories don't count, you can begin to make different decisions about how you choose to eat, learning what you really need to be counting instead. Practical, science-based and full of illuminating anecdotes, this is the most entertaining dietary advice you'll ever read.
Mainstream health science has let you down. Weight loss is not the key to health, diet and exercise are not effective weight-loss strategies and fatness is not a death sentence. You've heard it before: there's a global health crisis, and, unless we make some changes, we're in trouble. That much is true—but the epidemic is NOT obesity. The real crisis lies in the toxic stigma placed on certain bodies and the impact of living with inequality—not the numbers on a scale. In a mad dash to shrink our bodies, many of us get so caught up in searching for the perfect diet, exercise program, or surgical technique that we lose sight of our original goal: improved health and well-being. Popular methods for weight loss don't get us there and lead many people to feel like failures when they can't match unattainable body standards. It's time for a cease-fire in the war against obesity. Dr. Linda Bacon and Dr. Lucy Aphramor's Body Respect debunks common myths about weight, including the misconceptions that BMI can accurately measure health, that fatness necessarily leads to disease, and that dieting will improve health. They also help make sense of how poverty and oppression—such as racism, homophobia, and classism—affect life opportunity, self-worth, and even influence metabolism. Body insecurity is rampant, and it doesn't have to be. It's time to overcome our culture's shame and distress about weight, to get real about inequalities and health, and to show every body respect.

Leading Harvard Medical School expert and "obesity warrior" (Time magazine) Dr. David Ludwig rewrites the rules on weight loss, diet, and health in this guide to retraining your cells and reclaiming your health for life. Forget everything you've been taught about dieting. In Always Hungry?, renowned endocrinologist Dr. David Ludwig explains why traditional diets don't work and presents a radical new plan to help you lose weight without hunger, improve your health, and feel great. For over two decades, Dr. Ludwig has been at the forefront of research into weight control. His groundbreaking studies show that overeating doesn't make you fat; the process of getting fat makes you overeat. That's because fat cells play a key role in determining how much weight you gain or lose. Low-fat diets work against you by triggering fat cells to hoard more calories for themselves, leaving too few for the rest of the body. This "hungry fat" sets off a dangerous chain reaction that leaves you feeling ravenous as your metabolism slows down. Cutting calories only makes the situation worse by creating a battle between mind and metabolism that we're destined to lose. You gain more weight even as you struggle to eat less food. Always Hungry? turns dieting on its head with a three-phase program that ignores calories and targets fat cells directly. The recipes and meal plan include luscious high-fat foods (like nuts and nut butters, full-fat dairy, avocados, and dark chocolate), savory proteins, and natural carbohydrates. The result? Fat cells release their excess calories, and you lose weight - and inches - without battling cravings and constant hunger. This is dieting without deprivation. Forget calories. Forget cravings. Forget dieting. Always hungry? reveals a liberating new way to tame hunger and lose weight for good.

The primary purpose of fitness and body composition standards in the U.S. Armed Forces has always been to select individuals best suited to the physical demands of military service, based on the assumption that proper body weight and composition supports good health, physical fitness, and appropriate military appearance. The current epidemic of overweight and obesity in the United States affects the military services. The pool of available recruits is reduced because of failure to meet body composition standards for entry into the services and a high percentage of individuals exceeding military weight-for-height standards at the time of entry into the service leave the military before completing their term of enlistment. To aid in developing strategies for prevention and remediation of overweight in military personnel, the U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command requested the Committee on Military Nutrition Research to review the scientific evidence for: factors that influence body weight, optimal components of a weight loss and weight maintenance program, and the role of gender, age, and ethnicity in weight management.
