Has someone ever told you "You're not hungry, you're thirsty"? Have you ever heard the phrase "it is not a diet; it is a life style"? O perhaps someone has made you feel guilty by saying "if you can't lose weight, you're doing something wrong"?... Raquel Lobatn--former nutritionist focused on dieting to lose weight and now an activist and supporter of body diversity--questions the mandates that society has imposed over our bodies, while urging us to consider a new outlook on health and food. The Body I Love is a disruptive book that not only shows us it is possible to be free of the obsession of thinness and food, but gives us tools to get rid of those "permitted and forbidden foods" lists, deal with self-rejection and body shame, and liberate ourselves both personally and collectively to cross over towards a diet devoid of rules.
