There are a lot of buzz around Health at Every Size so I decided to do a post specifically telling you all the facts about what it actually means. The good thing about this concept is that its a mindset, not a plan, not something you have to pay for to learn about, and finally not a diet plan.
So without further ado here is what HAES means:
-
The weight-neutral approach
-
The truth about intentional weight loss
-
The cost of sustaining intentional weight loss
-
Set-point weight theory, the famine response, and breaking down weight science
-
The history of HAES and the non-diet approach
-
Fat activism and the fat acceptance movement
-
How HAES incorporates intuitive eating, joyful movement, and self-care
-
The importance of size diversity in the HAES movement and embracing the genetic determination of body size
-
The caveat of HAES with eating disorder recovery and weight restoration
