Synopsis

Shahroo Izadi sets out an approach to losing weight that centres on behaviour change rather than traditional diet plans. Using evidence-based tools drawn from her work with clients in active addiction, she explains how these methods also supported her own efforts to manage weight and body image.

The book introduces her kindness method and emphasises positive self-perception, self-kindness and self-respect. It also explores how to identify the roots of unhealthy habits, how to accept and change them, and what to do after setbacks, with exercises designed to help maintain long-term motivation and wellbeing.
