And what she has discovered is groundbreaking. Not only do diets \u003cem\u003enot \u003c\/em\u003ework; they often result in weight gain. Americans are losing the battle of the bulge because our bodies and brains are not hardwired to resist food--the very idea of it works against our biological imperative to survive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eSecrets From the Eating Lab\u003c\/em\u003e, Mann challenges assumptions--including those that make up the very foundation of the weight loss industry--about how diets work and why they fail. The result of more than two decades of research, it offers cutting-edge science and exciting new insights into the American obesity epidemic and our relationship with eating and food.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSecrets From the Eating Lab\u003c\/em\u003e also gives readers the practical tools they need to actually lose weight and get healthy. Mann argues that the idea of willpower is a myth--we shouldn't waste time and money trying to combat our natural tendencies. Instead, she offers 12 simple, effective strategies that take advantage of human nature instead of fighting it--from changing the size of your plates to socializing with people with healthy habits, removing \"healthy\" labels that send negative messages to redefining comfort food.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harper Wave\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/11\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780062329257\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.30w x 0.80d","brand":"Traci Mann","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43150235140277,"sku":"9780062329257","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_37e678ac-99ba-4a5b-868b-c84a7768657a.jpg?v=1696344350","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/secrets-from-the-eating-lab-9780062329257","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
