Book Description
The negative body-image epidemic that affects millions of women is also a hidden problem for millions of men. In spite of a decade-long emphasis on health and fitness - or perhaps because of it - more men are suffering from a variety of eating disorders and self-abusive behaviors. Using vignettes from their patients, the authors present a new program to help men overcome these problems. They offer ways to enhance self-image, facts about why diets fail, information about the dangers of using steroids, and a section for women who want to help the men in their life.

Book Description
You have probably tried losing weight at some point in your life, or at least thought about it. Well-meaning and well-intentioned articles, websites and ‘experts’ give out advice on losing weight through the latest research, ‘super’ foods or following ‘magical’ weight-loss techniques. This complicates the process and gives out conflicting information. What is lacking, then, is a coherent how-to which provides you with the pros and cons of healthy foods and foods which have ‘healthy’ claims attached to them, beverages and exercise. Losing It! fills in this gap with tips that are easy to tie into your daily life, resulting in long-term weight loss while gaining in nutrition and fitness. Faced with stores full of choices and the demands of a busy life, how do get together a balanced meal? What foods have empty calories and which ones really help you? Is bread bad for you? Should you not eat rice? What are the healthy choices you can opt for while eating out? Does going to the gym help? What’s holding back your weight loss? Losing It! addresses your everyday burning queries and concerns simply, and is chock-full of tips and suggestions for you to lose weight effectively. Informative and user-friendly, this is a book that will rest as easy in your bag or purse as on the bookshelf.

Book Description
Hello, and welcome to your personal nutrition guide for making weight! This e-book seeks to provide athletes of all levels with a basic understanding of nutrition and how a dietary program based on your physiology--and your fitness goals--can enhance how your body responds during training, how it performs amid competition, and how it recovers after a fight. The first chapter is an overview of fight camp and how to fuel appropriately for your training sessions, but also how to manage food intake in order to slowly decrease your body weight. In the second chapter you will become familiar with nutrition tactics used by health professionals to acutely, and safely, manipulate weight loss the week prior to weigh-ins. The last two chapters provide you with information on how to rehydrate and recover properly from weigh-ins and optimize energy levels for maximal performance for your fight! All the information included in this e-book is merely a guideline, and it should be noted that individual needs and circumstances can affect the nutrition tactics discussed in this book. As a registered sports dietitian, The Fight Nutritionist performs more detailed, in-depth analysis, such as body composition tracking, evaluation of total body water and glycogen stores, sweat rates, consistent diet monitoring, re-calculation of nutrient and supplement needs, and athlete response to weight cutting and rehydration protocols. The Fight Nutritionist does utilize the guidelines included in this book, and her athletes have enjoyed great success when following them. All the information included in this book is consistent with current, evidence-based research.

Book Description
For readers seeking scientifically proven methods for permanent weight loss that enable them to still have fun and enjoy their lives, this accessible, entertaining, and humorous book provides valuable insights and ideas. Laugh Yourself Thin: Making Happiness, Fun, and Pleasure the Keys to Permanent Weight Loss argues a unique thesis. Laughter, its physician author proclaims, is the key to losing weight. Losing weight, she goes on to say, will not necessarily lead to happiness, but happiness does lead to weight loss. Offering an approach to weight loss that is grounded in sound medical research, her book shows readers how increasing joy and fun decreases stress and negative emotions—resulting in permanent thinness. Laugh Yourself Thin covers the entire spectrum of weight loss, but pays closest attention to positive attitude and behavior in activity and eating. The first section discusses the relationship of thought and behavior to weight loss, the second deals with the intake of calories, and the third details issues in metabolism and activity. Enriched with healthy doses of funny, true stories, this revolutionary book proves that, when it comes to getting thin, laughter is the best medicine.

Book Description
The primary purpose of fitness and body composition standards in the U.S. Armed Forces has always been to select individuals best suited to the physical demands of military service, based on the assumption that proper body weight and composition supports good health, physical fitness, and appropriate military appearance. The current epidemic of overweight and obesity in the United States affects the military services. The pool of available recruits is reduced because of failure to meet body composition standards for entry into the services and a high percentage of individuals exceeding military weight-for-height standards at the time of entry into the service leave the military before completing their term of enlistment. To aid in developing strategies for prevention and remediation of overweight in military personnel, the U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command requested the Committee on Military Nutrition Research to review the scientific evidence for: factors that influence body weight, optimal components of a weight loss and weight maintenance program, and the role of gender, age, and ethnicity in weight management.
