No Fat Chicks
Author: Terry Poulton
Publisher: Secaucus, NJ : Carol Publishing Group
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
- Three-quarters of the women in North America think they're fat, though only a third of them are- More than 11 million American girls and women are afflicted with anorexia or bulimia- The average weight of a fashion model, 8 percent below that of the average woman in 1967, has fallen to more than 25 percent below that of the average woman todayWhat is behind these disturbing statistics? Money. In this passionate, provocative book, journalist Terry Poulton explores exactly how big business glorifies emaciation -- and why women have become willing to pursue the mirage of the "perfect" body even at the cost of their lives.Poulton once became a women's magazine cover story by losing 65 pounds in six months, only to regain all the weight. The experience sent her into hiding . . . led her to have her stomach stapled and to embark on a liquid-protein diet that destroyed her gall bladder . . . and finally ended in the realization, compellingly documented in this book, that her lifelong battle with fat -- and with the crippling self-hatred and self-denial that stayed with her even in her "thin periods" -- was fostered by a $50-billion industry devoted to the proposition that a woman is worthless unless she's thin.In No Fat Chicks Poulton traces the evolution of antifat ideology and of the businesses that profit from it, and explains how the health-care and fashion industries, among others, have become complicit in promulgating an image of the ideal body, that's impossible for 95 percent of women to achieve. She shows how the mass media's vicious vilification of "fat chicks" guarantees that women will frantically keep spending money on products that promise escape from the stigma.She demonstrates how the cultural pressure to be thin can constrain a woman's life --

Goodbye, Hurt & Pain
Author: Deborah Sandella
Publisher: Red Wheel/Weiser
ISBN: 1573246786
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
Emotions are invisible, taken for granted and dismissed much of the time#8212a paradox given they are some of the most powerful forces on Earth. They inflame wars, induce death, inspire invention, and control stock markets. More important, each of us has them#8212all the time. In Goodbye, Hurt and Pain, Deborah Sandella uses cutting-edge neuroscience research and her revolutionary Regenerating Images in Memory (RIM) technique to show how blocked feelings prevent us from getting what we want, and she introduces a process that bypasses logic and thinking to activate our own emotional "self-cleaning oven." Using imagination, color, and shape to visualize feelings and get straight to the root of longstanding problems, she teaches us to move destructive feelings such as fear, anger, hurt, resentment, and envy out of the body. Letting go of old feelings and traumatic memory at a deep, cellular level makes people feel and look younger, lighter, more energized, and less burdened. And they can begin to experience results after just one or two self-directed sessions. Goodbye, Hurt and Pain also provides seven organic ways of using your feelings to attract more love, better health, and greater success. The process is fast, fun, and as easy as 1-2-3. "Wonderful and profound. This book will touch you intimately and probably change your life." #8212Jack Canfield, from the foreword

No one but Merdon, a dark fey with a violent history of his own, who's determined to keep her from the one thing she wants most. Death.She doesn't understand why he cares about her or her addiction. It's not like he's nice to her. Yet, he's relentless in his determination to show her there's something to live for.
