Book Description
Like you, Michele Chevalley Hedge wants to be able to eat delicious food, enjoy the odd glass of pinot and still feel great. Here she draws on all the latest research and many years' experience as a nutritionist to provide a solution that works for the average busy person who wants to be healthy. In our busy lives, healthy eating can often slip down our list of priorities, and when we do have time to focus on it, the sheer amount of information and advice can be overwhelming. But if we're not eating well, we feel the impact in every part of our lives. We all know a poor diet can lead to weight gain, the development of Type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, but it also affects our moods, our ability to sleep well and our energy levels - in short, everything we need to function well in this modern age. So, what's the answer? Certainly not deprivation; all the science tells us that 'diets' (especially the extreme, yo-yo variety) don't work. What the science does show is that eating a balanced diet of nourishing wholefoods - with the odd treat thrown in - is your ticket to ageing well,a lean healthy body, a sense of vitality, abundant energy and better brain function. This book is not about yo-yo dieting or trying to fit into your jeans by Friday. It's a balanced and sustainable way of eating for long-term good health. This is a specially formatted fixed-layout ebook that retains the look and feel of the print book.

Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
From the dream team of Dr. Walter C. Willett, bestselling author of Eat, Drink and Be Healthy, and Mollie Katzen, author of the four million-copy bestselling Moosewood Cookbook, comes a new approach to weight loss Eat, Drink, and Weigh Less offers a medically sound, extremely effective program that shows people how they can lose weight by adding delicious food to their diet and making simple changes in what they eat throughout the day. It's flexible and adaptable--and it really works. It features a powerful way to chart your progress called the Body Score. The more you raise your Body Score, the more you will lower your weight! A quiz at the beginning of the book helps readers determine their Body Score; the chapters that follow explain easy dietary and behavioral steps readers can take to improve their scores. While the concept is simple, the science behind it is not. It represents years of top research conducted by Dr. Walter C. Willett, the head of Harvard School of Public Health's Department of Nutrition, including the famous Nurses Health Study. This study scored each of its over 84,000 participants on food choices, exercise schedule, and body mass--resulting in a number that accurately determined the nurses risk of heart disease. Now, for the first time, Dr. Willett has teamed up with mega-bestselling cookbook author Mollie Katzen to adapt a similar, much easier scoring system to create a user-friendly diet plan with fail-safe results. If you can raise your score, you will lower your weight--all while eating delicious, easy-to-prepare foods.

Holiday Keto

Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 98
Book Description
Keto is the fastest-growing diet in America, and the holiday season poses its greatest challenge: a steady stream of parties and feasts full of carbohydrate-loaded foods (think stuffing and sweet potato casserole) and tempting desserts. With this indespensible guide, you will never feel hungry, burn fat, boost energy, and transfrom your body all while enjoying the festive season. The ketogenic diet is based on cutting carbs down almost to near-zero while upping fat intake, and it has been shown to not only help people lose weight permanently, but also be good for their health by stabilizing blood sugar, lowering blood pressure, and improving markers for heart disease, among other benefits. This book is a guide to handling your keto lifestyle throughout the holidays to both enjoy the season and still maintain a healthy diet program. Starting first with the basics of keto—what it is, how and why it works, and what you need to know about fats and carbs—readers get tips on how to prep their kitchen, entertain in style, stay on track with exercise, and get through tough moments: maintaining keto when friends and family pressure you, recovering from a “cheat,” and adjusting your diet in the short term. The centerpiece is an extensive and colorful collection of keto recipes, starting with cocktails and appetizers and going through main and side dishes, vegetarian and vegan, and spectacular desserts. We wrap up with a fun keto gift guide full of products and foods that every keto dieter will love.

Despite her many years of offering relationship advice as a syndicated columnist–not to mention her pedigree as the daughter of the woman the world revered as Ann Landers– Margo Howard had to walk down the aisle four times before getting it right. Now the outspoken and witty Howard shares the sometimes rueful, always optimistic story of her adventures in pursuit of the perfect mate. Eat Drink and Remarry is the candid, funny no–holds–barred memoir of Howard's enduring belief in marriage as an institution–despite the often contrary evidence of her own experience.

Eat, Drink and Remarry is an endearing book about second (and third and fourth) chances, about the sometimes cockeyed optimism of love and about finding what's right for you–no matter how long it takes.

Languages : en
Pages : 214
Book Description
This book is not just about what to eat and what not to eat. It's about real mind shifts (pivots) to create new lasting results. We wanted to design a program that took the guesswork out, something you can do for the rest of your life with room to enjoy the things you love. After years of practice, we believe we've found an answer. A series of small changes in your lifestyle will build the foundation for the rest of your life and real success. Almost six years ago, we were two women in the same field, at the same pivot in the road, at the same stage of motherhood. Somehow we found each other. At the time we didn't know our friendship would grow into more, but eventually it became a partnership. We had different personalities and different strengths, but we had the same driving desire to help people change their lives. That is what made us a perfect team and led us to create Clean Cut Fitness & Nutrition.Together we built our friendship through running programs and helping moms. We took our clients from some of their first 5K races all the way to half marathons.In fact, we continue to work so well together today due to the success we've had in guiding others to identify and reach their goals and in inspiring them to create new ones.When a group of our clients approached us and asked if we could hold a weight loss challenge, yup, another new path opened for us. Excited by this idea, we sat down and put our methods, past fitness experiences, new education, and life experiences together to design a simple but effective weight loss challenge. We decided six weeks was the ideal time to break apart some old habits and create new ones. We also knew six weeks wasn't the final answer, and a lifetime of work was needed, but we knew it was a great foundation. Clean Cut was born. This simple, one-time challenge designed for this group, worked, and as you can imagine, people started asking, "What did you do? You look great!" Word got out, and interest grew, so we went with it and ran another challenge. We tweaked things along the way, building on our foundation. When things worked, we made them better. Things that had become roadblocks, we changed.We are always evolving and learning, which is the greatest part of Clean Cut. After our first small challenge gained momentum, we decided to create something for our clients and so many others. Over the years, Clean Cut has gone from a few challenges a year, to a national program that holds multiple core challenges along with holiday handhold programs, summer slam events and other pop-up programs that help people learn and succeed in the world of weight loss and management.

Negotiating Thinness Online
Author: Gemma Cobb
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 042995896X
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
This book interrogates the thin ideal in pro-anorexia online spaces and the way in which it operates on a continuum with everyday discourses around thinness. Since their inception in the late twentieth century, pro-anorexia online spaces have courted controversy: they have been vilified by the media and deleted by Internet moderators. This book explores the phenomenon during its tipping point where it migrated from websites and discussion forums to image-centric social media platforms – all the while seeking to circumvent censorship by, for instance, repudiating ‘pro-ana’ or adopting hashtags to obfuscate content. The author argues that instead of being driven further underground, ‘pro-ana’ is blurring the boundaries between normative and deviant conceptions of thinness. Situating the phenomenon in relation to accepted constructions of thinness, promulgated by establishments as far ranging as medicine and women’s magazines, this book asks if ‘pro-ana’ holds the potential to critique that which has long been considered normal: the culture of compulsory thinness. Engaging with debates including the current climate of postfeminism and neoliberalism, digital censorship, the pre-eminence of white, middle-class, heterofemininity, and the articulation of pain in realising the thin ideal, Negotiating Thinness Online examines what happens when the margins and the mainstream merge.
