About

I'm Losing It -And My Genes Don't Fit supportively addresses weight loss and control, body image, attitudes and relationships with food and eating. Causes of obesity and eating problems are explained simply and scientifically according to physiological, psychological, neurological, and environmental influences. While acknowledging the role of genetic, cultural, and behavior factors, the author gives straightforward solutions to managing weight by combining technologies for brain training and emotional balance, practical behavioral methods, and tools for eliminating cravings, food addictions and self-sabotage. Contemporary theories and medical solutions for weight problems are evaluated. Concepts of disease and disorder in obesity and addictions are discussed. The author gives personal examples of his struggles with weight and food and how he lost over one hundred pounds with his novel weight program-all without deprivation or suffering.
This book explains simply and succinctly the biochemical mechanisms of gut and brain interactions and the ways that foods affect us physically and emotionally and make us overeat. While no specific diets are prescribed, the author shares how he discovered what works, feels good, and results in significant weight loss without suffering or deprivation.
This book is a welcome relief and guide for those tired of diets, deprivation, shame, comparing themselves, and suffering repeated failure. It does not prescribe or restrict diets. Rather, it shares how the author has gradually shifted his eating habits to lose weight, keep it off, become healthier physically and emotionally, and establish a peaceable and functional relationship with food and attitude toward his body. As the title indicates, genetic predispositions do not necessarily or wholly determine lifestyle choices, health, or behaviors.
Readers will find the content accessible, validating, and practical for using new and effective methods to lose and manage weight and to become more satisfied with their body and themselves.
