Get It Now The No Need To Diet Book: Become A Diet Rebel And Make Friends With Food By Pixie Turner Available Through Digital Edition

easy read! Greatfor learning about diet culture, This book is wonderfully insightful to all the elements surrounding health, diets and food, It really digs into all the beliefs that we may hold, or the language that is used to describe food and health.
It truly makes you reflect on your thought processes and understandings of health, Backed up my science and studies all referenced, this book gets into the nittygritty issues around health and our relationships with food.
I really wanted to like this book and at first, I really did, Ive been looking more into intuitive eating because Im tired of food taking up all my headspace all the time.
This was one of the books suggested to me,

The first chapter was super interesting and informative! The second chapter was informative and sorta interesting, and by the third chapter I felt like Id been rereading in a more long winded way what was said in the first and second chapter.
I swear to you I kept forgetting the first SIX CHAPTERS werent just one long continuous and repetitive chapter.


Turner makes some excellent points, I just wish she was more concise, I also wish the author focused a bit more on the logistics of intuitive eating and less on the why you should try it.
I already know diet culture is bad, I dont need several hundred pages of it, I need to know how to free myself from it and thats not something I found with this book.
"The No Need to Diet Book" introduces a fresh and very needed view on most people's current relationship with food.
Really explores why we eat what we eat, and the science behind it, I bought this after following Pixie for a while on Instagram, and being inspired by her general ethos towards food, dieting, and body image.
This book did not disappoint! It really has encouraged me to think differently about my approach to eating and food.
I especially loved the chapter "Cleaning up the language of food" the way we talk about food is so powerful, and I had never before considered the moralistic/religious slant which is so often applied to our food choices and language.
Having tried dieting amp losing weight a few times in my life, I've finally come to the conclusion as has Pixie, that it simply doesn't work to follow a set of rules with the sole aim of trying to be thinner! Health is about more than aesthetics.
Intuitive eating is discussed in this book too, which sounds like a much healthier attitude towards food,

Overall, I really enjoyed reading this book, and would absolutely recommend it to anyone who has experienced disordered eating, or for anyone who is fed up of diet culture and wants to feel more positive about themselves! Very interesting, particularly the statistics about most people who lose weight through dieting only keep it off for a while and more often than not will regain it.
Definitely helped me to think differently about food and to reject diet culture, My main complaint is that it could be a lot more concise, There was a lot of waffle, Jalan ninja menuju jiwa dan raga yang sehat, terutama berdamai dengan perspektif soal makanan itu sendiri like, there's no good/bad food in nutrition terms, it's more/less

nutritious food.
Di sini juga dibahas dari segi psikologis, bagaimana media dan social media berperan besar dalam body image seseorang,

Namun konsep untuk mendapatkan tubuh yang sehat di sini rasanya masih terlalu umum, tidak ada sesuatu yang baru.
Intinya ya tidak usah takut makan apapun selain yang bikin alergi, tentunya selama masih dalam batas AKG Angka Kecukupan Gizi, makan ketika merasa lapar, banyak sayur, banyak gerak, kurangi stres, pola tidur terjaga, dst.

I think its important to understand that health is about more than just the nutrients in our food.
As I have done in this book, with clients I try to establish an overall picture of what health is, and all the various factors that contribute to it, such as a social life, stress, sleep and so on.
This helps place nutrition in context, rather than it being the sole determinant of health in someones mind, The goal is to reduce the power of food, so that instead of it being the centre of everything, it simply becomes one part of life, one small part of the puzzle and to develop an understanding and practice of moderation that allows for eating a healthy diet without it becoming addictive and an impossible quest for total perfection.

I am a big fan of Pixie Turner, I have seen her speak several times, and I follow her on Instagram, I am also a big fan of the ethos behind the book, so I was looking forward to reading this.
When I saw the Kindle version on sale for,, I knew I had to get it what a bargain! I hesitate to write this because I do really respect Pixie and the work she does, but this book was such a disappointment.
It really feels like a book written by someone who spends too much time online, Pixie got her start on Instagram, and although she is highly educated, intelligent, and qualified, this book is written like an Instagram caption.
Some people might like that, but for me it just felt so shallow, and like it wasn't even really a book.
There's a lot of time spent exploring the reasons behind emotional eating and shunning diet culture, but anyone who consumes that content on Instagram will recognise the arguments, the language, and the general style and approach.
You might think that the book therefore comes across as "authentic" because it's in Pixie's voice online, but for me it was just.
. . wrong medium, wrong tone, and not enough substance, As other reviewers have commented, the book is light on practical advice, so I am trying to think about who this book is for.
I don't think it's for people who think that diet culture is harmful, because they don't need convincing, I don't think it's for people looking for practical steps on "becoming a diet rebel and making friends with food" as the subtitle suggests.
I think it might be for people who are sort of emerging out of unhealthy cycles of dieting who haven't read much around the subjects of intuitive eating and are trying to get out of the habit of following people online who make them feel back.
I am not sure that reading this book will help you, but it might get you started, And you will also support Pixie Turner and the work she does, which I think is a good thing.
Ultimately, I am glad I bought it for that reason although I wonder how authors even get paid when Amazon puts the prices so low, but the book definitely was not for me.
It may be for you, This was great. I wasn't expecting such an in depth, wellresearched book when I spotted it on Kindle unlimited, It's definitely one I will be recommending to a great volume of people, This is a book I needed for many different reasons the last chapter is what I needed to hear and it made me really think how I see food and how I see myself.
The chapters are long and impactful but can be long winded, The last chapter was perfect What really is Healthy
Fab work !! Sick of diets Start here,

This is the book I needed aboutyrs ago when I was first introduced to the idea that I didn't actually have to be on a diet.


Smart. Informative. Kind. Pixie lets you in on all the secrets, facts amp alternatives without the middle finger to diet culture, Thank you Pixie for this book, I love the message that health should be the focus, and that it doesn't depend on weight, Thank you for the positive words of kindness and encouragement, and the solid debunking of numerous myths did anyone else know malnutrition in the UK coststimes more to treat than obesity Yeah, me neither.
Thank you for the fat, defiant middle finger to all the obnoxious wellness 'gurus' who pollute our world, I was in Waterstones at the weekend, there werewhole stacks of shelves devoted to them, Fuck. That. I feel more positive, empowered and accepting of myself than I have in a long time, now that I have read this.
I have never dieted because I can't, I have often hated myself for this, Not anymore. Thank you Pixie. Beyond talking about food, this book is also a great reminder of just how to live your life, how to treat yourself and others, and of what actually matters.
Two big thumbs up. An interesting book, but could be a bit long in the tooth and overly psychological for some as, although much of it is entertaining, she does at times ramble on a bit about the topics, most are all, although quite truthful, scathing against the norms we are very much used to in regards to health and weight.
Her 'plan' isn't as laid out as such, but more of a 'don't think this way, instead just be accepting', which when for many who need rules for a 'diet', this 'nodiet' way might not sit well or work for those who need structure and routine.
A good book though to read for anyone in the business of health and nutrition, and for all those who suffer from the 'affliction' of yoyo dieting.
