The Unintended Consequences of Our Obsession With Weight Loss
Summary:

It advocates for a focus on mindful eating and listening to the body's hunger signals as a more effective approach to achieving and maintaining a healthy weight.

Key points:

1. Set Point Theory: Aamodt suggests our bodies have a natural weight range they maintain, and the brain works to keep us there despite dieting efforts.
