Our constant fixation with losing weight is exhausting. We're stuck in a vicious diet cycle, gaining weight after each failed attempt and never feeling good enough.

Her evidence-based strategies will help you find freedom with food and build a trusting, healthy relationship with your body. Because health and happiness aren't about having a perfectly flat stomach or a cellulite-free tush. They're about feeling comfortable in your skin and having the energy to do the things you love.
Liberate yourself from food guilt and self-blame with a new approach to health that doesn't rely on willpower or counting calories, because you can't live a full life on an empty stomach.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Packed with handy resources, simple exercises and countless truth bombs, Your Weight Is Not the Problem, by nutritionist and dietician Lyndi Cohen, unpacks the science behind why the diets you’ve tried in the past have failed and sets out positive and practical steps to help you get off the diet rollercoaster. Cohen (aka @nude_nutritionist) believes “perfect eating" is the enemy of healthy eating and that restrictive food rules are unhelpful. She advises us to rethink our relationship with food by collecting new healthy habits—aiming for “healthy enough”—and concentrate on the things that matter most to wellbeing, like managing stress and getting enough sleep. Cohen has a conversational style, with friendly and encouraging big-sister energy. And—bonus!—she narrates the audiobook herself, which adds emotional authenticity to the sections where she talks about her own turbulent relationship with food and body image. This is an invigorating and liberating listen about learning how to be kind to yourself, letting go of perfectionism and achieving “food freedom”, that also reveals how diet culture can sap the joy out of life.
