America's ever-expanding waistline: We see it, hear about it,
and worry about it But can anything be done about it?
People today work harder and take better care of their health
than any previous generation. So how could two-thirds of us fail to
measure up when it comes to eating right and exercising? HBO and
the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences have
joined together to bring you the nation's foremost experts and
definitive research on weight and weight loss. "The Weight of the
Nation" explains how we got to this unhealthy place and how we can
get to a healthy weight by overcoming the forces that drive us to
eat too much and move too little.
"The Weight of the Nation" answers crucial questions about yo-yo
dieting, how metabolism functions, why stress affects weight, and
how to keep weight off forever. Based on the rich research behind
HBO's documentary series, "The Weight of the Nation" is the only
book that tells it like it is: losing weight is hard, keeping it
off is even harder, and there's no quick fix. Weight loss takes a
lot of work and a lifetime commitment, but thousands have done it
and this book will show you how.
