Book description
Your practical guide to losing weight and keeping it off throughout
life with the scientifically based principles of The Don't Go Hungry
Diet. Since its publication, The Don't Go Hungry Diet has helped many
people to lose weight and keep it off using Dr Sainsbury-Salis'
scientifically based principles for permanent weight loss. Now, Don't Go
Hungry For Life brings you an uplifting and riveting collection of
success stories, demonstrating how different people applied these
principles to solve their diet obsessions, overcome challenges, lose
excess weight and develop a healthy relationship with food and their
body. As a world-leading scientist specialising in weight management
research, and having personally struggled with binge eating before
losing over 28 kilos and keeping it off for over 12 years (and
counting), Dr Sainsbury-Salis draws on recent scientific studies and
real-life experiences to show you the ten common traps that prevent
people from successfully attaining or maintaining an optimum body
weight. She'll then walk you step-by-step through a series of ten simple
diagnostic tests that will show you which of these common mistakes may
be keeping you from reaching your optimum weight for life, and what to
do about it. Whether you've read her previous work or not, Dr
Sainsbury-Salis' scientific commentary, case studies and empathic
understanding of what it's like to struggle with excess weight and win
will enthral and inspire you to identify the specific things that you
can do to lose weight by connecting with your body. Instead of counting
kilojoules, weighing and measuring your portion sizes and eating
separate foods to your family and friends in order to shed excess
weight, Dr Sainsbury-Salis will show you how to let go, trust in your
body's innate ability to help you manage your weight, and start losing
weight in the next two weeks. One of the world's leading scientists in
the field of weight regulation, Dr Amanda Sainsbury-Salis is a Research
Fellow at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research, Sydney, where her
work is funded by such health organisations as the NHMRC and Diabetes
Australia. Dr Sainsbury-Salis is also a senior lecturer at the
University of NSW. Her many awards include the Peter Doherty
Post-Doctoral Fellowship. She lives in Sydney with her husband and two
young children.
