Why We Get Fat
Why We Get Fat is an invaluable key in our understanding of an international epidemic and a guide to what each of us can do about it. A follow up to his New York Times best seller, Good Calories, Bad Calories, Taubes reveals the bad nutritional science of the last century, none more damaging or misguided than the “calories-in, calories-out” model of why we get fat, and the good science that has been ignored, especially regarding insulin’s regulation of our fat tissue.

While they may be calorie free, a common belief is that artificial sugars actually create more sugar cravings. The theory is that because they deliver the sweetness but none of the “benefits” of sugar, the body is only tricked temporarily. Once it realizes it’s getting none of the energy from what it thinks to be sugar, it starts to want what it thinks it was promised.

Try eliminating artificial sugars from your diet and see if the cravings diminish or go away entirely. Many people have shed fat simply by taking this one small step.

As a busy mom of three young children, I had neglected my nutrition and fitness for many years. I was at a point where I was tired all the time and felt bad about my health, fitness and physical appearance… Kim was extremely encouraging and provided the accountability I needed to stay on track to reach my goals. I was able to exceed my goal by losing 17 pounds and over 13 inches! I also have more energy, feel healthier, and feel better about myself too. Kim has also been able to help me develop a plan to maintain going forward… I am extremely grateful to Kim for her encouragement, tips and genuine care in seeing me reach my fitness goals. I couldn’t have done it without her!
