Health At Every Size

Health At Every Size is not a weight loss program, nor is it a diet. 

Health At Every Size is about healthy living, one designed to support you as you shift your focus from hating yourself and fighting your body to learning to appreciate yourself, your body and your life.

It is designed to help you break free of the weight-loss mentality and embrace the health and happiness mentality.

What is really beneath your weight-loss quest?  Isn’t your ultimate goal to feel better about yourself, to feel love, acceptance, vitality or good health?

Health At Every Size is not speculation or unproven theory.  It’s based on a scientifically tested program.  The program was evaluated through a government funded academic study, it’s data published in well-respected scientific journals. 

The Health At Every Size program will not ask you to give up on your dreams, it will help you to actually live them. 

It will give you the tools to realize those dreams to live in a body you love and to focus on things like feeling good and enjoying life – no matter what your weight.

Decades of research and probably your own personal experience show that the pursuit of weight loss rarely produces the thin, happy life you dream of.  Dropping the pursuit of weight loss isn’t about giving up, it’s about moving on.

When you make choices because they help you feel better, not because of the presumed effect on your weight, you maintain them over the long run.  You do it because you want to, not because you believe you should.

When you stop trying to control your weight through willpower, your body starts doing the job for you – naturally and much more effectively.  If you stop fighting yourself, achieving and maintaining a healthy weight is effortless.

Cultural attitudes about weight are so strongly embedded in you that you are unlikely to be changed by mere exposure to ideas.  It will take active personal engagement for these words to take root.

With that in mind, I encourage you to pay careful attention to the emotional and personal significance of the ideas presented here, to try to make sense of the ideas by relating them to your own life experiences.

You may feel resistance.  When this feeling occurs, consider what it may threaten in you before dismissing the idea.  If you examine your fears, they hold less power in limiting you.

My hope from this moment forward is to offer you a fresh, transformative view of yourself, your body and your value as a unique individual.
