Conquering Fat Logic (okładka  miękka)

Why do diets fail? Is it because of genetic disposition? A sluggish metabolism? An underactive thyroid?

After years of failed diets, Dr Nadja Hermann, a nutritionist and behavioural psychologist, weighed 150 kg at the age of 30. Over the years, she had heard and read hundreds of reasons why diets wouldn't work for her. But when her weight started to affect her health, she took a hard look at the science and realised that most of what she believed about diets was a myth. What was more, those very myths were preventing her from losing weight.

Conquering these pieces of 'Fat Logic' was what finally led to Hermann achieving a healthy weight. One and a half years later, she weighed 65 kg, and has maintained that weight to this day. Now, using humour, the insight she's acquired, and a dose of science, Hermann debunks widespread lies about weight loss, and shows how it is possible to attain a healthy weight.
