The F*ck It Diet

O livro parte de bases muito sensatas, dietas não funcionam. Há inúmeras pesquisas científicas sobre isso. Como curar o efeito sanfona? Começando a comer aquilo que a gente quer, sem medo, sem culpa. O livro remete também à alimentação intuitiva e indica as semelhanças e diferenças entre as duas abordagens. Além disso, é muito engraçado! Vale a pena ler!

After years of trying to lose weight, I was starting to realise that it wasn't me that needed to change. Why is a thin person seen as more of an acceptable role model than a "fat" person? Why was I expecting that losing weight would suddenly miraculously make me happier?I'll admit, at first this book produced more questions than answers for me. What about emotional eating? What if once I allow all food I can't stop?But all of those questions were answered - and more. It was almost like the author was in my brain, listening to these thoughts and addressing them.Caroline Dooner explains everything so well, by the end of this book I completely understood that I am not the problem. Diet culture is the problem. The view that thin = healthy and fat = unhealthy is the problem. The fact that society has taught me to feel a certain way about myself because of my wobbly belly and big bum is the problem.I'd also recommend the f*ck it diet podcast and instagram account, to back up everything this book tells you and more.Some people aren't ready for this book. Some people have the belief that being thin means you're healthy so ingrained that they'll disregard this book outright. I've read a few negative reviews on this book and they are clearly from people who either didn't read the entirety of it or weren't open-minded enough to really understand how it works. Allowing all food does not mean you will continue to gain weight for the rest of your life. Read the book carefully and in it's entirety and I promise it will all make sense.This is the way forward. Everyone needs to know about this and everyone needs to be accepting of it. This is changing my life for the better and I hope the ripple effect continues to grow. I'm definitely going to do my bit to get this message out there.

Sounded so good .. followed it & now I am bigger than I’ve ever been !!!! Yes I know you think I’m missing the point Caroline dooner .. but I’ve never been this big in my whole life .. I just believed in your advice so much .. your very slim .. u don’t know how it feels*****ITS NOW 2020*****So as you see above I was angry INITIALLY.. I put on a lot of weight fast & it went on for months (she does actually explain about this in the book!!!) & I hated it & was mad & thought I’ll just keep gaining forever but I just carried on eating what I wanted regardless .. ten months later I have now plateaued.. I was still eating lots of calories but just stopped gaining .. out of nowhere my appetite has just started decreasing lots.. my obsession with all the junk food is leaving me .. I’m eating naturally & intuitively... the book is correct in a lot of what it says ..I’ve started losing now.. no idea what my set point will be but I feel free .. it’s a journey & might take longer than you think

Loved the book. It's not as funny as I had imagined, but instead it was so unbelievable helpful. I tried Intuitive Eating back in 2016 and made a Hunger-and-Fullness-diet out of it. Then in 2019 I started again. I started reading this book when I had made peace with food except for Kinder Happy Hippo Biscuits - a chocolate waffer with the most delicious hazelnut-milk cream filling. I was bingeing on them every time I had them in the house. And just a few chapters in the book I already felt how I got more relaxed around them. The journal exercises are amazing and very helpful. Do NOT skip them. ;) I can see now how the book Intuitive Eating by Evelyn Tribole can be taken the wrong way (as I did first) and I like Caroline's approach better. First you just need to give yourself permission to eat, an I mean full permission! And you have to fight every judgement around it. And first after that, all other topics like listening to your hunger cues, satiation, movement, gentle nutrition can come into place. I haven't craved any kind of fruits or veggies in the past two months and now that I am sick I just want to eat apples, snack on mini carrots, drink smoothies and eat mango sorbet. Always remember: Your body knows best!I'm so thankful for this book and I will definitely reread it very soon and dive deeper into the journaling exercises and the resting periods.

Before the fuck it diet I was in the classic cycle of extreme dieting followed by extreme binging. I hated myself. Reading the fuck it diet was the first time in my life I realised I was not alone and not to blame. Before tfid I couldn't have "bad" foods in the house because I would literally hear them calling my name and now I can have chocolate sitting in the cupboard for months because I dont crave it as much. Yes at first you will gain weight, and you have to accept that, but a year later i am happier than ever, i go to the gym 3 times a week just because i enjoy it which would never have happened before, people say i have lost weight and it has no impact on me because i dont care if i loose or gain weight. Life is too short to spend it hating yourself and counting calories, buy the book, it's the best thing you will do today, I promise.
