| Publisher Description: Did you know that the average woman in the UK spends 31 years of her life on a diet? THIRTY-ONE YEARS spent on the soul-destroying pursuit of smallness, with no real guarantee of improved health or happiness anyway....what an absolute waste But what if there was a different way? Imagine what incredible things women could do instead with all that time, money, energy and effort usually spent on dieting? Imagine how much healthier and happier we would all be if we stopped focussing so much on what we looked like, or what others might think about our appearance and instead focussed on REALLY loving and embracing who we truly are?Perhaps then we could just get on with living a BIGGER, more EXCITING, more ADVENTUROUS life? Julie Creffield is the plus size marathon runner turned no bullshit life coach who literally spent 20 years of her life trying not to be FAT, believing that if only she could squeeze into a size 12 pair of jeans all of her problems would fade away, and she could finally find happiness.After a string of unfortunate incidents such as being made redundant for the 4th time in 10 years, becoming a single mum on benefits, and then being unceremoniously kicked out of her local job center to fend for herself, Julie decided enough was enough it was time to stop waiting for her weight and life to change, and to instead change her stinking thinking, create some radical self-care habits and start rebuilding her life.As the founder of the fitness movement Too Fat to Run? and the anti-diet programme "Stop Dieting, Start Living" Julie has worked as a transformational coach with more than 10,000 women around the world to help them prioritise their health and happiness, and live a more purpose-filled adventurous life. This book is an inspirational, funny and provocative look at what makes Julie's coaching techniques so applicable, with a practical toolkit of ideas, exercises, and challenges to help you be the best version of yourself, with or without the promise of any future weight loss. |
