Dear person, I may not know your name.

Mainstream health science has let you down. Weight loss is not the key to health, diet and exercise are not effective weight-loss strategies, and fatness is not a death sentence. Body Respect debunks common myths about weight, including the misconceptions that BMI can accurately measure health, that fatness necessarily leads to disease, and that dieting will improve health. The authors also help make sense of how poverty and oppression - such as racism, homophobia, and classism - affect life opportunity, self-worth, and even influence metabolism. 

The book looks at how the body positivity movement can be used to help those struggling with these issues. Then it explores the cultural, familial, social, and emotional impacts upon a person’s relationship to food. It explains in depth how to monitor your triggers for overeating or unhealthy behaviors, and proposes new rewards that you can try when establishing healthy habits in your life. It then discusses how a person can begin to reinforce new healthy habits by developing a healthy body mindset.
