In order to address this critical public health challenge, obesity research has recently shifted from focusing purely on individual causes to viewing individuals within their "obesogenic" or living environments.

This book includes a foreword by Peter Baker, Chief Executive, The Men's Health Forum. Male weight problems are a serious public health issue and can lead to hypertension, hyperlipidaemia, diabetes and cancer. If current trends continue, the prospect of the majority of men becoming overweight is a very real one, and urgent action is imperative. The middle-aged spread that most men 'expect' to develop as they enter into their thirties and forties is now occurring much earlier with boys and young men developing life limiting weight problems. This multidisciplinary guide provides a gender sensitive approach to weight issues. Men need to be targeted specifically and in a male-focused manner, in order to overcome the multitude of contributing factors in their weight gain; social influences, dietary restrictions, education, cultural expectations, psychological considerations and exercise regime. This book takes a balanced approach, offering practical guidance as well as evidence-based research, academic perspectives and personal experiences. The advice is easy to implement and has been proven in real-life settings. All healthcare professionals, nutritionists and dieticians will find the assistance invaluable. It is also highly recommended for psychologists, counsellors and therapists, particularly those working with men. Healthcare policy makers and shapers too, will find much of interest. 'A definitive and seminal book that will change the way male weight problems are tackled in the UK and beyond.' - Peter Baker, in the Foreword.

A motivational guide to weight loss describes the proven visualization method, in which readers are encouraged to use their subconscious minds to reach their goal weights. Reprint. Debbie Johnson's troubles with weight control began when a favorite pair of pants shrunk in the dryer. She assumed she was getting fat and started a diet. Over the next 10 years she added 40 pounds, mostly because, she says, she obsessed over the idea of being overweight. When she started using visualization exercises, the same ones that had brought her success in business, the extra weight melted away. Johnson's method won't work for everyone, but the worst that can happen if you try it is that you'll be out the price of the book, which still makes the experience cheaper than a lot of weight-loss programs.

"Once upon a time in a faraway land lived a beautiful princess who was burdened with the seventy-five pounds of the most obstinate, tenacious, malicious extra weight ever. She had tried it all. Potions and spells didn't work, the secret eating plan from the old woman in Dietville failed, and the Wizard from the town of Willpower only made her feel like a failure. Depressed and still overweight, she had nearly lost hope when she met Sebastian.. Sebastian , a pointy-eared elf, told the overweight princess that the answer would not be found in potions or diets or exercise alone. He knew the answer that she had been searching for, and he was willing to teach her, but only on one condition -- she must pass along this valuable knowledge to others who were also searching for the truth. The princess agreed and sat down on a large rock to listen to the little elf, and this is what he told her....."
