Demeter Press Heavy Burdens: Stories of Motherhood and Fatness
Book SynopsisHeavy Burdens: Stories of Motherhood and Fatness seeks to address the systemic ways in which the moral panic around 'obesity' impacts fat mothers and fat children. Taking a life-course approach, the book begins with analyses of the ways in which fatphobia is enacted on pregnant (or even not-yet-pregnant) women, whose bodies immediately become viewed as objects warranting external control by not only medical professionals, but family members, and even passers-by. The story unfolds as adults recount childhood stories of growing up fat, or growing up in fear of being fat, and how their mothers' relationships with their own bodies and attempted weight-loss experiences shaped how food, exercise, and body management were approached in their homes in sometimes harmful ways. Finally, the book concludes with stories of women who have since become mothers, examining the ways in which having their own children altered their views on their own bodies and their perceptions of their mothers' actions, and working to find fat-friendly futures via their own parenting (or grand-parenting) techniques.

On the way, it provides a realistic guide to healthy weight. Highly recommended. -- Dr Tony Cassidy, Professor of Child & Family Health Psychology at Ulster UniversityDr Nicola Davies has clearly understood that the key to losing weight is not only in the food we choose to eat, but also in our journey of self-discovery. This book is an excellent resource and self-help aid, and one I will find incredibly useful to use with my patients. I believe it will not only help them to understand the basic science behind obesity, but also enable them to have an insight into themselves and begin to understand the challenges they face to change their behaviour. -- Jane DeVille-Almond, SRN SCM HV, BA(Hons) PGcert, Independent Nurses Consultant and Chair of the British Obesity SocietyThere is so much conflicting information out there - "eat this, don't eat that" - Nicola's book instead focuses on the psychological barriers to change and the behaviours that have led to obesity in the first place. Helping people make even the smallest change by developing a deeper understanding of self is key to long term change. -- Geraint Thomas, personal trainer and former professional rugby playerThis is a great book which manages to combine the science of body weight and eating behaviour with extremely helpful tips on how to beat obesity, and is written in an accessible and inspiring way that should be a breath of fresh air to anyone who is struggling with their weight. -- Jane Ogden, professor in Health Psychology and author of several books on eating behaviour including The Good Parenting Food GuideI Can Beat Obesity! is a delightful book full of important information for those who want to join this journey... trigger yourself to change and believe in yourself. When you develop that cornerstone of self-confidence, your life will change, affecting every aspect of your world; your health, your success and relationships will benefit, helping you to achieve your goals. -- Konstantia Keramidaki, health and wellness consultantKudos to Dr Nicola Davies for having written an elucidative, intelligible and earnest guide for those who are considering to embark upon the journey to beat obesity. The book equips you to overcome this health hazard in an organized, hands-on fashion! -- Dr Vandana Mathur (PhD Nutrition), nutrition and lifestyle consultantI've battled with weight for years, tried numerous diets, resorting to bariatric surgery. However, for continued success, I need to understand myself. This book is inspirational, very practical and encouraging and I believe it will be a great tool in helping people understand themselves and achieve the success they seek. -- Patricia King, Accredited Counsellor / Supervisor at Patricia King Counselling ServicesNicola Davies shows us the bigger picture of obesity ... She is both a specialist and supporting companion, helping the reader prepare for change and encouraging self-reflection. -- Mateusz Banaszkiewicz, Health Psychologist, lecturer at SWPS University of Social Sciences and HumanitiesDr Nicola Davies' latest book is an excellent read for both professionals and individuals alike. The approach is balanced between evidence and practical approaches for those wanting to understand the psychology of making a positive change to behaviours. The inclusion of self-reflection in each chapter enables the reader to maintain a connection and truly engage with the process of change. -- Gil Barton MSc PgCert FRSPH FHEA, health and wellbeing specialist and founder of The Healthy Workstyle ConsultancyTable of ContentsPart 1.

Little, Brown Book Group The Compassionate Mind Approach to Beating Overeating: Series editor, Paul Gilbert
This self-help book explores the problems created by having ready access to high fat foods designed to taste good. Because we evolved in conditions of relative scarcity we have few natural food inhibitors and so most diet books try to encourage people to inhibit their eating by highly rule governed behaviours which have to be constantly worked at. However, this can lead to various forms of self-criticism which can undermine efforts at self-control. As a result our relationship with eating can be complex, multifaceted and problematic.Beating Overeating Using Compassion Focused Therapy uses Compassion Focused Therapy - a groundbreaking new therapeutic approach - to understand and work with our urges and passions for food. We can learn to enjoy and accept food and pay attention to our biological and emotional needs. This book is for people who have tried diets and found that they don't work and will enable the reader to have a healthier and happier relationship with food and their body.Topics covered: The relationship between our brains and food, the evolutionary background to finding, conserving and eating food How too much or too little food affects the brain, why diets don't work, factors affecting our eating behaviour (tastes, stress, comfort, etc) Body shape and culture Developing an inner compassion for one's relationship with food - recognising what we need and what is helpful

Book Synopsis This comprehensive, multi-authored book covers all aspects of surgery on obese patients in emergency conditions. Obesity is a metabolic disease affecting a high percentage of world population.. It involves marked anthropometric changes, affecting surgical practice and altering patients’ ability to react to surgical stress.

This volume discusses this science, examining the frailty of the obese patients and the main comorbidities that affect clinical practice, as well as the most frequent emergency situations after trauma, inflammatory diseases and the complications of bariatric surgery.With contributions from leading experts, it provides clinicians with detailed and updated information for better practice in this emerging field of surgery.Trade ReviewTable of ContentsForeword.- 1 The frailty of the obese patients and the effect of surgical stress.- 2 Emergency anaesthesia in the obese patient.- 3 Perioperative and intensive care management of the obese surgical patient.- 4 Postoperative complications in ICU.- 5 The ERAS protocol.- I CLINICAL SETTINGS IN OBESE PATIENTS.- 6 Trauma and burns in obese patients.- 7 Perforations of the upper gastrointestinal tract.- 8 Acute Diverticolitis.- 9 Acute appendicitis.- 10 Pancreatic and biliary emergencies.- 11 Bowel obstruction.- 12 Abdominal compartment syndrome.- II CLINICAL SETTING AFTER BARIATRIC SURGERY.- 13 The evolution and development of bariatric surgery.- 14 Metabolic complications after b.s.: the faulse acute Abdomen.- 15 Complications after bariatric surgery.: a general overview.- 16 Complications of BIB therapy.- 17 Complications of restrictive operation.- 18 Upper G-I bleeding after bariatric surgery.- 19 Peptic ulcer after bariatric surgery.- 20 Bowel obstruction after bariatric surgery.- 21 Acute peritonitis and abscess after bariatric surgery.- 22 Anastomotic leakage after bariatric Surgery: from prevention to treatment.- 23 Gallstones and related complications, cholecistitis and Cholangitis after bariatric surgery.- 24 Emergencies After bariatric surgery: the role of flexible endoscopy and interventional radiology.- 25 Extreme remedial surgery for b.s. acute complications.- 26 Accreditation of the surgeon to emergency bariatric surgery.- 27 Litigation after bariatric surgery.
