A recent study showed just how chronic dieting can turn someone into a food addict. Read More















Diet
This would explain why most of the population of the Western world is overweight.
In UK culture, the weekend is very much the time for take-away food, carry-outs, and other indulgences.
In my own family we rarely had that sort of food, but when my parents discovered that they had a little more income we had take away on a Friday night.
It would be great to think that this could work, balancing out the changes, but this is not just a mental change it is a cultural change too.
Undoubtably it could work in humans, but it would take significant government backing and education in schools to start to turn the tide of obesity.
Best wishes,
Ruth
self-denial vs. good nutrition
Very interesting. But I'm curious to know more about how to promote the positive aspects of healthy eating without inducing a sense of prohibition. What's the difference between self-denial and exercising the "what not to eat" element of good nutrition?
this is good stuff
I think this is such important information that needs to get out to the public. This is how the diet industrial complex thrives - dieting doesn't work, causes more problems and then unfortunately leads people to believe that the solution is more dieting. Martha Beck talks about this in her book Four Day Win - she sites a study from the 50s in which healthy, normal weight men with no history of weight problems were put on a diet for a few months. Afterward they all displayed disordered eating behaviours and many of them went on to struggle with their weight.

Health At Every Size is gaining important recognition
Thank you for your mention and consideration of the Health At Every Size paradigm. The Association for Size Diversity and Health (ASDAH) is an international professional organization committed to the principles of Health At Every Size (HAES).
Emerging research confirms that taking care of oneself without pursuing weight loss leads to better long-term health. We are seeing empirical documentation of the health impact from stigma and discrimination toward larger people and the deleterious effects of medical bias and barriers to care for people with higher BMIs. As professionals from diverse disciplines we recognized the need for a weight-neutral approach to addressing health issues for people across the weight spectrum.
We encourage you to explore our website at www.sizediversityandhealth.org. If we can be a resource to you for future exploration of the HAES paradigm, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Sincerely,
Deb Lemire, President
The Association for Size Diversity and Health
Do not be too restrictive
Do not be too restrictive – Everyone has their favorite treats. Just leave a little indulgence, but watch out for the quantity and frequency. Having a small treat from time to time can be very enriching the experience of weight loss. Cutting back of your favorite treats too much usually lead to early relapse.
The first wealth is health...
