'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. It's time to embrace the new approach that readers are calling 'life-changing' and a 'must-read'.
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.
