"It's Not About Your Weight" Workshop
Clearly, weight control is NOT about weight loss. If it was, we would have an epidemic of thin people, NOT fat people. Ninety-five percent of all weight that is lost is regained by the time follow-up occurs at five years post weight loss.
The question becomes, why do so many people fail to sustain the lifestyle changes that generate the initial weight loss? Is it because of their weak will (as conventional "wisdom" would have us believe)? We don't believe this for a minute. Is it because the typical diet training is insufficient - even destructive - in preparing them to achieve the desired result?
We make a compelling case that supports an affirmative answer to this second question. This workshop reveals the destructive nature of the psychological perspectives taught by the diet industry and reveals to participants the psychological secrets of lasting weight control.
