The F*ck It Diet is not only hilarious, it is scientifically and medically sound. A must read for any chronic dieter.” –Christiane Northrup, MD, New York Times bestselling author of Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom”
From comedian and ex-diet junkie Caroline Dooner, an inspirational guide that will help you stop dieting, reboot your relationship with food, and regain your personal power
DIETING DOESN’T WORK
Not long term. In fact, our bodies are hardwired against it. But each time our diets fail, instead of considering that maybe our ridiculously low-carb diet is the problem, we wonder what’s wrong with us. Why can’t we stick to our simple plan of grapefruit and tuna fish??? Why are we so hungry? What is wrong with us??? We berate ourselves for being lazy and weak, double down on our belief that losing weight is the key to our everlasting happiness, and resolve to do better tomorrow. But it’s time we called a spade a spade: Constantly trying to eat the smallest amount possible is a miserable way to live, and it isn’t even working. So fuck eating like that.
In The F*ck It Diet, Caroline Dooner tackles the inherent flaws of dieting and diet culture, and offers readers a counterintuitively simple path to healing their physical, emotional, and mental relationship with food. What’s the secret anti-diet? Eat. Whatever you want. Honor your appetite and listen to your hunger. Trust that your body knows what it is doing. Oh, and don’t forget to rest, breathe, and be kind to yourself while you’re at it. Once you get yourself out of survival mode, it will become easier and easier to eat what your body really needs—a healthier relationship with food ultimately leads to a healthier you.
An ex-yo-yo dieter herself, Dooner knows how terrifying it can be to break free of the vicious cycle, but with her signature sharp humor and compassion, she shows readers that a sustainable, easy relationship with food is possible.
Irreverent and empowering, The F*ck It Diet is call to arms for anyone who feels guilt or pain over food, weight, or their body. It’s time to give up the shame and start thriving. Welcome to the F*ck It Diet. Let’s Eat.
Cada vez que nuestras dietas fallan, en lugar de considerar que tal vez nuestra dieta ridículamente baja en carbohidratos es el problema, nos preguntamos qué nos pasa. ¿Por qué no podemos seguir con nuestro plan simple de toronja y atún? ¿Por qué tenemos tanta hambre? ¿Qué nos pasa?
Nos regañamos por ser flojos y débiles, duplicamos nuestra creencia de que perder peso es la clave de nuestra felicidad eterna y decidimos mejorar mañana. Pero es hora de que llamemos a las cosas por su nombre: tratar constantemente de comer la menor cantidad posible es una forma miserable de vivir, y ni siquiera funciona. Caroline Dooner aborda los defectos inherentes de la dieta y la cultura de la dieta, y ofrece a los lectores un camino simple para sanar su relación física, emocional y mental con la comida. ¿Cuál es el secreto? Comer. Lo que quieras. Honra tu apetito y escucha tu hambre.
Confía en que tu cuerpo sabe lo que está haciendo. Ah, y no olvides descansar, respirar y ser amable contigo mismo mientras lo haces. Una vez que salga del modo de supervivencia, será cada vez más fácil comer lo que tu cuerpo realmente necesita: una relación más sana con la comida en última instancia lo conduce a una vida más saludable. Dooner sabe lo aterrador que puede ser liberarse del círculo vicioso, pero con su característico humor y compasión, les muestra a los lectores que una relación sostenible y fácil con la comida es posible.
