Bookwormjillk I haven‘t started this yet but got it on my kindle for when I‘m on a family vacation next week. Let‘s just say it might come in handy. 2d
MallenNC I am not *enjoying* this exactly because the topic is a tough one but I like the way the author explains that what many think to be true is actually wrong like the accuracy of BMI or that being a higher weight automatically making someone less healthy. 2d
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @MallenNC yes! That‘s how I felt and why I said I wanted to tell off a few people. A few doctors in particular. More girls need to read this younger so they get a more balanced prescriptions on weight & health. 2d
Riveted_Reader_Melissa I‘m all caught up now. And I will say *enjoying*, because I feel like things I have thought for a long time are here in print, with data to back them up. 2d
vlwelser @MallenNC that BMI nonsense is no joke. People actually use it like it's a real indication of anything. They were using it to sort us into covid vaccine groups. My friends mocked me for being the only one in the "normal" group 2d
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @vlwelser the number of times my doctor has told me the “lose 10% of your body weight” reduces the risk of xyz. I always thought that was BS, because there is no bottom there, you can always say that no matter what you lose and be told 10% again. And this book points out rightfully that those that lose regain back & often more and the dieting and regaining has more risks than the weight anyway. 🙄 2d
vlwelser I like that she points out the exercise bit. Like that actually makes you healthier. 1d
