Download or read book Supersized Lies written by Robert Davis and published by Everwell Books. This book was released on 2021-06-11 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world would have you believe that losing weight is easy, but the truth is, in many cases, you're being fed a generous helping of falsehoods and misguided dieting advice. The media, celebrities, weight-loss gurus, and the Internet bombard society with recommendations about how to shed unwanted pounds: Count calories, cut carbs, exercise more, skip meals, drink more water, pop a pill. Yet as more people try diligently to follow this advice, waistlines continue to expand. In Supersized Lies, Robert J. Davis, PhD, aka The Healthy Skeptic, shows you why this inability to lose weight isn't your fault as he reveals how hype, half-truths, and unproven solutions have steered you into fruitless quests that inflict emotional and physical harm. In this health and wellness book, the award-winning health journalist, whose work has appeared on CNN, WebMD, and in The Wall Street Journal, reveals: Which weight-loss measures are most - and least - likely to be effective. How conventional wisdom about weight loss is often wrong. How to spot misleading weight-loss advice, and avoid being duped into wasting time, money, and effort. How, contrary to what we often hear, effective weight control doesn't require following complicated, restrictive rules. The interesting history behind flawed weight-loss advice, and the forces that currently perpetuate and benefit from it. In addition to uncovering how and why we're being led astray, Supersized Lies lays out weight-control strategies that research shows actually work, and it tells the inspiring stories of people who, after falling victim to the falsehoods of conventional guidance, have achieved success by forging their own paths. Written in a lively, easy-to-understand style, this myth-shattering book sheds surprising new light on old assumptions and offers an inspiring way forward to those caught in the cacophony of weight-loss advice.
Download or read book Break Through Your Set Point written by George Blackburn and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2008-04-08 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How many times have you gone on a diet and lost a few pounds, only to hit, once again, that dreaded plateau? Many people manage to lose the first 10, 15, or 20 pounds of the weight they want to shed. Then, no matter how hard they work, they can't seem to nudge the number on the scale farther down, and often they end up gaining back the weight they lost. Finally, there is a healthy, permanent weight-loss solution that will get you off the frustrating yo-yo that often accompanies most fad diets. Dr. George L. Blackburn is the associate director of the Division of Nutrition at Harvard Medical School and directs the Center for the Study of Nutrition Medicine, which investigates complex issues in nutrition and health. Based on three decades of his research and clinical practice, Break Through Your Set Point offers an exciting and effective program that will give you specific tools to help you get out of your rut and prevent those extra pounds from coming back. Your set point, or typical body weight, is determined by your genes and your environment. Many modern lifestyle habits—including getting too little sleep and eating on the run—have conspired to raise many people's set points to unhealthily high levels. According to Dr. Blackburn's theory, if you set a reasonable goal to lose about 10 percent of your initial body weight, then hold steady at your new weight without regaining any pounds for at least six months, you can reset your body's set point. And once you've reset your set point, you can repeat the cycle to lose even more weight. The body's innate tendency to protect itself against starvation explains why the body resists losing weight after a certain point. Dr. Blackburn explains the science behind the set-point theory and helps you devise a plan that works for you. With his unique, multi-faceted approach, Dr. Blackburn shows that hitting your set point is not a dead end but the first step in losing weight the right way. This book will help you overcome your weight-loss plateau once and for all.
Download or read book The Big Fat Truth written by J.D. Roth and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-04-12 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Meredith hit the finish line at the Niagara Falls Marathon last year, people in their living rooms all across America choked up. Who could help it? Here was a young woman who, just a few months earlier, had weighed in at 340 pounds on the hit ABC show Extreme Weight Loss. Now for all the world to see—and merely part way into her one-year effort to pare down—she’d (literally) gone further than she’d ever expected. From barely being able to walk up the stairs to running 26.2 miles in practically no time? The body is an amazing thing. And yet … it’s no match for the brain. It wasn’t the strength of Meredith’s body propelling her across the Niagara Falls finish line—it was the power of her mind. No one knows that better than JD Roth, who as the number one producer of TV weight loss shows has helped countless overweight people change their bodies—and lives—for the better. Viewers of Extreme Weight Loss, The Biggest Loser, The Revolution and other transformational shows have seen the “technicians”—the trainers, the nutritionists, the doctors, and other health pros who appear on-screen—but they’ve never seen the heart and soul behind these amazing makeovers. That would be JD, whose production company not only created weight loss television, but who has produced more episodes in the genre than all other producers combined. He’s the behind-the-scenes wizard who gets inside the heads of the shows’ participants, encouraging, persuading, prodding, and inspiring them to succeed. Intimately involved in casting the shows’ contestants, then seeing them through the weight loss process, he’s the guy whose picture they tape onto their elliptical trainers and angrily scream at each night—then hug out of gratitude the next morning. He’s the guy who holds them when they cry and the one who tells them they need to get back on the treadmill even though they’re crying. JD is the shows’ tough-love dad—love being the operative word. Because it’s not just TV to JD; he’s on a mission to change people’s lives. Every fat person (yes, “fat person”—there’ll be no sugarcoating here) knows that you need to move more and eat less to shed pounds. Not exactly rocket science. Yet that simple formula doesn’t get to the root of what makes someone top out at 500 pounds, or sometimes just carry an extra fifty. The missing link in transformative weight loss is mental and emotional fortitude. Mining the same problem-solving and motivational skills JD has used so successfully with reality show contestants, The Big Fat Truth gets readers to address the real reasons they’re overweight (and nobody gets away with saying it’s because they love food). With his combination of enthusiasm, empathy, no-holds-barred style, and master story-telling abilities, JD helps them unearth and tackle the unresolved issues they’ve buried under the French fries and chocolate chip cookie. Presented in three parts, The Big Fat Truth includes short straight-to-the-point chapters that help readers identify their real issues, create their own reality show, and then shake up their lives to do the impossible. Included throughout are inspiring stories, advice, and before-and-after photos from people JD has helped to lose weight (both on camera and off), along with quick tips for how to stay accountable and a 30-day plan for putting this advice into action.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I KNOW WHAT TO DO, I JUST DON'T DO IT is for people who have spent a lifetime feeling bad about their body, and every Monday is a torturous new attempt to change. What's going on here? We know what to do, we just don't do it. The issue for us is deeper than any diet or program. That is because not loving ourselves is a symptom of being disconnected from the truth and our true selves. Sue takes us through the false beliefs that keep us stuck and replaces them with the truth about who we really are. We are encouraged to get healthy for good, not by finding the right diet, program, or other means of control, but by making the radical shift from weight loss to worthiness.

Download or read book The Truth about Weight Loss written by Mindy Lee Chc and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2018-08-09 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is my journey to optimal health and a new way to think about dieting and losing weight. After four years of research I have discovered the real reason why we gain weight and therefore, how to control it. I believe weight gain is just a by-product of an "imbalanced" body. It's "not" a state of mind as some people think. You can't just stop eating! You can't tell yourself, you're not going to eat that brownie today because it doesn't work! The reason for this . . . is that the body is in a "physically imbalanced state."That's why you can't control your mind, your willpower, or a diet that deprives you of food and nutrients. DIETS DON'T WORK! I have found it's what you control in the body, not your mind that determine if you want, crave or eat that delicious brownie today! So let me ask you this: Have you ever wondered why fad diets come and go? Why we need chemically engineered pills and potions to lose weight? Or why our body won't lose weight on its own naturally? Have you ever wondered why "DIETS JUST DON'T WORK?" Well, hang onto your beautiful body . . . because this eye opening research will give you the simple answers to all these questions! Plus . . . tell you how to lose weight naturally without starving or feeling hungry. It's about correcting the body's ecosystem naturally so it can burn calories and lose fat without dieting or suffering. This information is about feeling healthy, looking healthy and feeling younger all while losing weight without dieting.
Download or read book Big Fat Lies How the diet industry is making you sick fat poor written by David Gillespie and published by Penguin Group Australia. This book was released on 2012-02-22 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Diets and exercise won't help us lose weight. Vitamins and minerals are a waste of money and sometimes downright dangerous. Sugar makes us fat and sick. And polyunsaturated fat gives us cancer and works with sugar to give us heart disease. This book exists because I desperately hope that with a little knowledge we can all vote with out feet and change the rules of the game before the game kills us.' For decades we've been told to eat less, exercise more, eat less saturated fat, eat more polyunsaturated oils, and take vitamin and omega-3 fatty acid supplements. For decades this is what we've done, but the rates of obesity, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, dementia and cancer have never been higher. The real culprits, David Gillespie tells us, are sugar and polyunsaturated oils. Analysing the latest scientific evidence, he shows us why the outlines a plan to avoid them both without missing out or 'dieting'. Gillespie exposes the powerful role the multibillion-dollar food, health and diet industries have played in promoting the health messages we follow – or feel guilty about not following. Discovering the truth about diets, exercise, supplements and processed food is your first step towards improved health, greater happiness and a longer life for you and your family. 'Gillespie is an informed and entertaining writer who makes his subject fascinating, and inspires with his passion and logic.' G MAGAZINE
Download or read book Body of Truth written by Harriet Brown and published by Da Capo Lifelong Books. This book was released on 2015-03-24 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past twenty-five years, our quest for thinness has morphed into a relentless obsession with weight and body image. In our culture, "fat" has become a four-letter word. Or, as Lance Armstrong said to the wife of a former teammate, "I called you crazy. I called you a bitch. But I never called you fat." How did we get to this place where the worst insult you can hurl at someone is "fat"? Where women and girls (and increasingly men and boys) will diet, purge, overeat, undereat, and berate themselves and others, all in the name of being thin? As a science journalist, Harriet Brown has explored this collective longing and fixation from an objective perspective; as a mother, wife, and woman with "weight issues," she has struggled to understand it on a personal level. Now, in Body of Truth, Brown systematically unpacks what's been offered as "truth" about weight and health. Starting with the four biggest lies, Brown shows how research has been manipulated; how the medical profession is complicit in keeping us in the dark; how big pharma and big, empty promises equal big, big dollars; how much of what we know (or think we know) about health and weight is wrong. And how all of those affect all of us every day, whether we know it or not. The quest for health and wellness has never been more urgent, yet most of us continue to buy into fad diets and unattainable body ideals, unaware of the damage we're doing to ourselves. Through interviews, research, and her own experience, Brown not only gives us the real story on weight, health, and beauty, but also offers concrete suggestions for how each of us can sort through the lies and misconceptions and make peace with and for ourselves.
Download or read book The Whole Truth about Weight Loss You Wish You Knew written by Joanna M. Skye and published by Joanna M. Skye Health & Fitness Publishing. This book was released on 2020-07-21 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Health and Fitness industry has lied to me for many years. It is currently worth $ 4.2 trillion. The Healthy Eating, Nutrition, and Weight Loss sector alone is worth $ 702 billion. There are many brilliant ideas to make big bucks from people who are looking for fat burn secrets or how to burn belly fat fast, and most of them are based on magical “rapid weight loss” diet plans/powders/teas/exercise plans/pills, etc. The industry is making giant money off of ordinary people who want to learn more, but there is so much information thrown at them that they just can’t distinguish legit data from the crap that was creatively made to look like evidence-based material. Are you a serial dieter who has tried literally everything that’s out there? Are you a mature woman who has been told that weight loss for women over 40 is just not happening? Are you unsuccessfully trying to lose that post-pregnancy weight? Are you feeling bitter and disappointed because you are so dedicated to your workout routines and healthy eating, learned how to count calories, but somehow you still can’t seem to get rid of those last few pounds? Or are you a little scared and reluctant to start any weight loss program because they all just seem to be so strict that they would require your undivided attention and efforts? You do not need to be always hungry and miserable to lose weight. Your life does not have to be full of restrictions and exclusions. Your family life does not have to be ruined. Social situations do not have to be unbearable. You don’t have to kiss pizza goodbye forever. You don’t have to kill yourself training. You can eat as many meals per day as you want, at whatever time you choose. You don’t have to spend hundreds of dollars on supplements. Does this sound like science-fiction? It’s not. It’s just science: no magic. Do yourself a favor - stop reading obsolete and harmful weight loss theories. Stop listening to charlatans telling you that a detox or magic pills will solve your problem. Stop getting excited about new strict “weight loss” diets, which promise you 40 lbs. less in 2 months. Learn what weight loss is really about, how it actually happens, and how you can pull this off and still live a normal life. This book WILL NOT tell you what exactly you must / must not eat. However, it WILL show you HOW to choose what you eat, what flexible dieting looks like, and how your body will respond to what’s on your plate. This book focuses on the most important things you need to know, including hormone balance. Information in this book is based on pure scientific knowledge and its sensible interpretation, and not on guesswork or some tortuous ideologies that simply feel right at the time for their authors, so they present them as scientific facts. The weight loss process is simple, logical, and easy. This is the only book on weight loss that you will ever need because nothing else actually works. Does this mean it will require no effort at all? Of course not. You have to work to get what you want. After all - “If we keep doing what we're doing, we're going to keep getting what we're getting.” [Stephen Covey] Will this turn your life upside down? No, not in a negative sense. You can lose weight while having a normal life. However, it will definitely be a life-changing experience, this I can promise.
