Accidentally Overweight

Accidentally Overweight

Dr Libby's first book Accidentally Overweight, was written after Dr Libby spent 14 years at university and 13 years working with clients. Dr Libby noticed that despite enormous efforts with food and movement, many people were unable to lose weight by simply focusing on what is known as the calorie equation: how much you eat versus how much you move. These observations led Dr Libby to return to her scientific textbooks asking the question, "what messages does the human body receive that tells it to either burn fat or store it?" Accidentally Overweight was born out of the answers Dr Libby discovered of which there are 9 factors which make up the chapters of this compelling book.

They are: Calories, Stress Hormones, Sex Hormones, The Liver, Gut Bacteria, The Thyroid, Insulin, Alkalinity and Emotions.

Whether consciously or subconsciously, many people are frustrated by how they feel about their body, or its appearance, and this frustration can take up their headspace and influence their moods. Many people eat well and exercise regularly yet their body fat does not reflect their efforts. Others have gained and lost the same 40 pounds for the past 20 years. This book explains the biochemistry and emotions of weight loss to help free people from their battle with their bodies, as let's face it it is not usually a lack of education that leads someone to polish off a packet of chocolate cookies after dinner. It is most often emotional and Accidentally Overweight helps you get to the heart of your emotional eating which allows changes to be sustained.
