- Dr George Blair-West: Weight Loss for Food Lovers
Weight Loss for Food Lovers is a great book written by Dr George Blair West looking at the psychology of why we eat what we eat.
It’s not what’s in your mouth but what’s in your mind.
The question is not What to eat? - overweight people know what they should eat! The real questions are the “Whys”:
- Why don’t we eat what we should?
- Why do we eat what we shouldn’t?
- And why do we sabotage our healthy eating plans?
This ground-breaking book explains in fascinating but simple terms why most dieters fail at, or actually sabotage, their weight loss plans.
Three key reasons are:
- A deep love of food;
- Rebelling against excessive deprivation;
- There are benefits to being overweight.
It’s not that people fail diets, it’s that diets fail people. And parents are failing their children – one of the greatest gifts we can give them is the habit of healthy eating so that as adults this comes naturally.
