our biology and culture clash
by: Cari

Hi Rina (verskoon tog dat ek u in Engels antwoord)

I think that maybe that as we get older our body has naturally protective mechanisms that unfortunately clash with how we are conditioned to want our bodies to look, so it feels as if our body is going against our wishes, when actually it's doing what is naturally healthy for it. For example carrying a bit of extra fat as you get older is apparently protective against osteoporosis and it also helps us reduce wrinkles. Sadly though so often, our wishes are opposite those that are protective for our body. 6 kg's of weight gain really isn't an enormous amount, even if it feels to you like it is. You might like to use our body fat calculator (check our freebies tab) to see what your percentage body fat is.

I got the link to your website from the SBI website forum and decided to take a peek. Excellent information here. I especially like the page about sleep and weight , as well as the info on international weight research . Keep up the good work. I love your bright, cheery logo :)

I really love the idea of doing some 'head stuff' tweaking instead of dieting. This is a GREAT website, loaded with unusual information.

The Joy-Filled Body


I LOVE this website. It's really thought-provoking, it's given me ideas about dieting and weight loss that I would never have contemplated. It makes such sense in a world where much about dieting doesn't. Bravo! I also loved your quizzes. I will be a repeat visitor. PS I have signed up for your free Joy-Filled Body Tips.

The Green Eating Guide


I am a university-bound teenager from the United States. Two years ago I was diagnosed with anorexia, a battle that eventually found me in the hospital.Dieting has robbed me of too much time. I found this website by chance. I've spent a lot of time browsing through articles and reading stories. It has changed my attitude and made me want to be MY ideal weight, not someone else's. Thank you to all the contributors and readers of Mind over Fatter. I deeply appreciate everything you do.(abridged by Cari)

Food Advertising Lies


It's easy in our society today to feel that our value is determined by the number on the scale. I am encouraged to change my mind so I can love myself for who I am not how much I weigh. Thank you so much for your website. It is such an inspiration to me!
Thank you! Rachel, USA
