Helping Patients Outsmart Overeating, written by an eating disorder
therapist and a physician, offers a new paradigm for doctors and
health care providers who treat patients with eating and weight
concerns. It describes how both parties are frustrated by
weight-loss plans and programs that fail in the long term, and
presents a science-based explanation for why diets fail and how
they, in fact, may adversely impact patients' mental and physical
health. The authors illustrate how providers can truly help
patients by using empathy, compassion, and motivational
interviewing. They explain how helping patients strengthen skills
related to self-awareness, emotional management, stress reduction,
appetite attunement, perseverance and effective self-care can
improve self-efficacy and support sustained motivation in improving
health and wellness promoting behaviors. The issue of weight stigma
is addressed, along with how professionals' view of their own
eating and weight affects the patient-provider relationship. This
book introduces clinicians to tools from eating and success
psychology, Intuitive Eating, Lifestyle Medicine, and Health and
Wellness Coaching, within a weight-inclusive paradigm. It also
details a collaborative model for working with ancillary
disciplines to give patients and providers the comprehensive
support needed for lasting success.
