I started reformer pilates late last year and am addicted to it. I have always loved doing what works for me, not the highest impact exercise. The right book at the right time for me. In the last couple of months I’ve been really enjoying getting into running and a high load of exercise, and about two weeks before starting this book I started macro counting.

An evidence-based guide to breaking your fixation with weight, with simple strategies to make peace with your body and build healthy habits that actually matter. The last chapter focuses on how we can share this approach with our children. Lyndi states that 'The way you think about food matters,' and suggests that the answer is not to demonise any particular food, but to embrace intuitive eating, not strict rules or diets. I love food and cooking. It was a relief to read Lyndi's advice, as a nutritionist, that it is actually ok to eat a variety of foods. don't beat yourself when you don't think you eat perfectly, and don't engage into "I've been bad so I now have to be good" pendulum behaviour, eat a rainbow: embrace crowding and variety approach in food (aim for 30 diff plants a week to feed your microbiome) While I didn’t relate to everything she said, I really appreciated the overall message. Pretty much enjoy your life, don’t let the scales or the look of your body get in the way of living, set health goals around accomplishments not measurements (running the 10km, doing a pull up instead of fitting into a clothing size or weighing a certain amount), and consistency is what matters most (so if it means less intense workouts or small steps like cooking at home an extra night a week, this always wins over a perfect routine that only lasts 2 weeks).

FAQs

Anti-obesity campaigns are so common and normalized these days that some readers might consider our claim as the outrageous one. Yet, consider this: stigmatizing and imposing shame on bodies, whether individually or as a group of people, is hurtful both to the vilified fat people and to the thinner people who are taught size prejudice and instilled with a fear of becoming fat. (“Fat” is used here as a descriptive term stripped of pejorative connotations, reclaimed by a growing fat acceptance movement.)

Diet culture and unattainable #bodygoals contribute to burnout, overwhelm and feeling out of control around food. It's time to embrace a new approach. For the HAES naysayers and those fighting to end obesity, we urge you to examine why these beliefs are so deeply held and what about challenging them is challenging you. A fresh take that I hadn’t heard before was you don’t NEED to love your body (though you absolutely should cherish this if you do), but your body always deserves RESPECT, no matter it’s size or shape. This feels more approachable, especially for people who are still a while away from truly loving their body.From 1st July 2021, VAT will be applicable to those EU countries where VAT is applied to books - this additional charge will be collected by Fed Ex (or the Royal Mail) at the time of delivery.
