About
the book: This is not a book about dieting. It's about starvation.
Starvation is a strange phenomenon to be playing a role
in the 21st century in the wealthiest nation on the planet,
but there is no other word for the culture of weight-consciousness
and weight loss that pervades every corner of our daily
life.
From
skeletal models defining our concepts of beauty in the sensory
overload of magazines, movies and media, to the fat-free,
zero-calorie choices on the supermarket shelves, to the
rise in eating disorders among pre-pubescent girls and the
increase of Type II Diabetes in the over-the-40 population,
starvation is the silent culprit.
Thus beings a powerful journey by three experienced practitioners
and researchers into the world of diets, frustration and
hope. The book begins with a startling pronouncement of
how dieting is not only not an effective means to healthy
living, but rather it is dangerous to one's health.
It then moves on to explain Tomorrow's Weigh; a healthy,
effective, research based No-Diet Way to Lose Weight.
