About this listen
You are not a failure. And you are not alone. You are being scammed by a system that promises quick fixes that fix nothing and sells you money-sucking programs that do nothing but fuel overeating. At each meal, 93 million overweight American adults and 14 million overweight children and adolescents risk their lives. More than 300,000 die unnecessarily every year from obesity-related diseases.
Hazel Dixon-Cooper was a size-22 woman in a size-two world until she dumped the weight-loss industry, discovered how food companies lie, and learned that doctors rarely know more about nutrition than we do.
Confessions of a Fat Cosmo Girl examines the most popular weight-loss programs and reveals the truth about why they fail; confronts the medical profession's solution of slice-and-dice bariatric surgery; and debunks the deceptive benefits of fad diets and over-the-counter weight-loss products. The book also explores sugar addiction and how it contributes to every major life-threatening disease; shows you how to clear your life of toxic food, toxic people, and your own toxic beliefs; proves the life-saving benefits of moving to a plant-based diet; and offers a 21-day challenge that will change your life.

The ability to use body fat for energy is essential to health - but over decades of practice, renowned family physician Catherine Shanahan, MD, observed that many of her patients could not burn their body fat between meals, trapping them in a downward spiral of hunger, fatigue, and weight gain. In The Fatburn Fix, Dr. Shanahan shows us how industrially produced vegetable oils accumulate in our body fat and disrupt our body’s energy-producing systems, driving food addictions that hijack our moods and habits while making it nearly impossible to control our weight.

Most of us know that sugar can wreak havoc on adult bodies, but few realize how uniquely harmful it is to the growing livers, hearts, and brains of children. And the damage can begin early in life. In his research on the effects of sugar on kids' present and future health, USC Professor of Pediatrics and Program Director for Diabetes and Obesity at Children's Hospital Los Angeles Michael Goran has found that too much sugar doesn't just cause childhood obesity, it can cause health issues in kids who are not overweight, too.
