There are countless diets, cleanses, and 30-day challenges all geared to help people lose weight, heal their digestion, and feel more energy. Yet, these temporary protocols fall short when it comes to true transformation.
With all of the nutrition guidance available, why do millions of people weigh more than they want and feel anxious and depressed about it? Nutritionist Carly Pollack lived this vicious cycle for years until trial and error and years of study and self-healing led her to the insights she has since shared with thousands.
Her new book blends an understanding of body science, brain wiring, and heart spirit to facilitate real, long term change. In the language of a fellow struggler, Pollack helps readers reframe their thinking and, for example, see comfort foods for the numbing foods they truly are and focus on long-term goals rather than immediate "gratification." She foregoes theory and jargon and cuts to the chase with "Skimmer's Delight" chapter summations and "Make it Stick" reminders.
While Pollack talks straight and writes real, her success is based on her palpably profound understanding and compassion and her sincere wish to help others triumph and thrive.
Industry Reviews
"A clever, engaging, and truthful read."
-- Psychologies
"Pollack says that what most people call 'comfort foods' actually make us feel worse, that willpower comes from the energy of fear, that food prison is a state of mind, that the goal shouldn't be weight loss but learning to love foods that love us back, and that dieting without spiritual tools is utter chaos."
