The book Un-Dieting was born out a lifetime of failed diets, addiction to food and drugs, frustration over not having the body I always wanted to have, and ten years of experience working with eating disorders. After forty years of dieting, I finally learned that diets were the very thing keeping my weight on! Instinctively, I knew this must be true, not only from my own and my family's experience, but also, because I was finally beginning to see that all the weight I lost from diets was regained--sooner or later.This book will teach you first, that there is only one way to gain weight--excess calories. Then you will learn that the main reason we eat excess calories is due to excess hunger, which is a direst result of diets and deprivation. Then I will show you why and how we eat our emotions, rather than expressing them. And most important, you will receive tools; tools for culminating anger and resentment; tools for transforming fear and worry; tools for communicating your wants and needs, so that you no longer have to eat your feelings; lastly, you will notice that when you have self-esteem or confidence, you feel better, you perform better, you communicate better, your relationships are better, and your ability to lose excess weight is greatly enhanced. So, because self esteem goes hand in hand with success in every area of your life, you will receive 20 keys for raising your self-esteem on a daily basis.Becoming liberated from diets is so empowering and so freeing that I truly believe you will find this to be the most exciting experience you've ever had--and one that will last a lifetime. I thank you for your courage in beginning this journey.

Dieting, Overweight, and Obesity: Self-Regulation in a Food-Rich Environment examines why self-regulation of weight is so difficult for many people. In light of the fact that overweight and obesity has been increasing so dramatically that the World Health Organization has declared it a global epidemic, author Wolfgang Stroebe explores the genetic, environmental, and psychological influences on weight gain. The author explains the history of bodyweight standards, details the emotional and physical consequences of being overweight, and explores the various treatment and prevention plans for obesity. In reviewing the numerous psychological theories that explain people's problems with weight, Stroebe points out that each does not take into consideration the desire for palatable food. He then presents the goal conflict theory which assumes that chronic dieters who have difficulties in controlling their weight often disregard bodily cues of hunger and satiety not because they are unable to recognize them, but because they do not want to recognize them. Their eating behavior is dominated by a conflict between two incompatible goals: the goal of enjoying palatable food and the goal of losing weight. This book gives readers a comprehensive understanding of the issues involving weight gain and dieting. Psychologists and medical professionals in the field of weight management will find this book to be an indispensable resource.

A food allergy is an immune system response to a food that the body mistakenly believes is harmful. Chemicals released by the immune system to protect the body trigger allergic reactions ? varying widely from mild rashes to life-threatening anaphylactic shock.

An authority on food allergies and intolerances, the author describes the effects of food allergies on the skin, mucous membranes, and respiratory and digestive tracts; discusses treatment by allergists and other healthcare professionals; and empowers readers to manage their food allergies.
