Fat, Smart and Happy: Find Your Weight, Lose The Guilt, And Live Stronger (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780999125755)

THE COMPLETE FAMILY GUIDE TO HEALTH AND DIGNITY IN A WORLD OF SUGARS AND SHAMING. Our existence today honors the powerful evolutionary forces which continue to prepare us for a famine we hope never comes. GENETICALLY, our excess fat is the embodiment of success. But it's an agonizing mismatch in our present ENVIRONMENT of constant exposure to cheap, delicious calories from processed foods and sugary drinks. It's a wonder that only two-thirds of Americans are overweight or obese. Ninety-five percent of the millions who return to risky potions and another cycle of weight-loss dieting will regain all that weight (and then some). Not a healthy cycle. Yet FAT-SHAMING and SELF-LOATHING permeate the public discourse. Both stem from the widely accepted but deeply flawed belief that size is a fair measure of both health and character. WE CAN BE BETTER THAN THAT. You're invited to a potluck dinner where every chapter is a simmering stew waiting to be uncovered. See which widely-accepted beliefs about weight loss are still standing after the profiteering and misdirection is stripped away. Be repeatedly surprised and empowered. Then hit re-set. Readers of every size will be provided powerful tools to protect their health, earn and share acceptance, and achieve their personal brand of FAT, SMART HAPPINESS. Robert Stewart Jennison is a newspaper reporter, investigative journalist and editor who ably builds on his 28-year career covering business, health, education and government. Here, he unearths a mountain of overlooked or under-reported research and expertise. The result is this revealing, often irreverent and unexpectedly entertaining assessment of America's culture of weight hate, bias and blame-shifting, paired with a path to health, confidence and dignity.
