Whose Day Is It, Anyway?

International No Diet Day – May 6
I recently spotted a greeting card that said “I’m on two diets. There is simply not enough food on one”. Within the humorous message resides a very real truth… dieting means never eating enough. No matter how many new, creative ways that diets are re-packaged and marketed, the point is always to restrict nutritional intake and energy below what the body actually needs to sustain itself.

May 6: Celebrate International No Diet Day!
Billions of dollars are spent every year on the latest diet programs, diet pills and diet books, yet most dieters regain all of, if not more of their weight within one to five years . On May 6th, International No Diet Day, the National Eating Disorder Information Centre is encouraging Canadians to break free of dieting with four alternatives that will help lead to a healthier outlook and relationship with food and with oneself.

A diet provides you with rules about what you’re supposed to eat or not eat. Attempts to control your food intake through willpower and control require that you drown out the internal signals, leaving you much more vulnerable to external signals.
Trust Your Body: Forget About Dieting
Author: Dr. Linda Bacon Dieting. It’s so seductive. It gives us hope, the promise of weight loss and happiness. But, by now you know it just doesn’t deliver. (If your personal experience isn’t enough to convince you, review my post during NEDIC’s 2015 International No Diet Day campaign: Diets. Don’t. Work. Body Trust Does.)

Have you gained a few? Me too, here’s how to (mentally) let it go.
hi hi hi! Oh, how I’ve missed you. I haven’t written to you in so long – but now I’m back! I took a bit of a hiatus as I ran the Master Your Life program over the past 10 weeks. Never have I worked so hard and been so engrossed in what I’m doing, and to be honest, it took a lot out of me and I needed to hibernate a bit after such a big push this year. I hope you understand. But now, I’m back. And bursting with new ideas and things to write to you about! One of which is… Holiday Weight… keep reading The post Have you gained a few? Me too, here’s how to (mentally) let …
