After age forty, years of accumulated stress, poor coping skills and a slowing metabolism leave many women dramatically overweight and physically unfit. This toxic weight puts a woman in jeopardy for serious health risksdiabetes, hypertension, heart disease. By incorporating nutrition management into her medical practice, Pamela Peeke developed a program that helps women break this cycle and shed the dangerous pounds. Fight Fat After Forty presents Dr. Peeke's program based on 'Three Sacred Templates.' Adding physical activity into daily routines leads to weight loss, better body mass and a more attractive shape. Learning what and when to eat puts a woman in charge of her diet and reduces stress-induced cravings. Developing a stress-resilient attitude eliminates poor self-care and the resulting worry-weight-and-waist syndrome that leads to extra pounds. This practical and proven guide is especially timely in light of new studies warning Americans about their ever-increasing weight.
