About this listen
Scientists outside of the diet industry have discovered powerful ways of losing weight that almost nobody knows about. Grand Theft Weight Loss "steals" their most important discoveries and shows us how they can be used to cut hunger, quit sugar, stop overeating, "shrink" your stomach and eliminate unhealthy cravings. For example, when brain researchers accidentally bumped into a technique that cuts hunger by 50 percent they didn’t publicize it, because they were studying memory, not weight loss.
The science archives are full of hidden gems like this and so is this book. Tired of yo-yo dieting, endless cravings, and restrictive eating plans? Let brain researchers, Addiction Medicine specialists, evolutionary biologists, behavioral psychologists, and physiologists help you achieve what all those weight-loss experts couldn’t: permanent weight loss.

As a pediatrician, Katrina Ubell, MD, always struggled with her weight—she was either 40 pounds overweight, or struggling to lose that weight. Although she'd regularly counsel parents on the importance of keeping their kids healthy and fostering good eating habits, Dr. Ubell, as a busy professional, was never able to do the same for herself. Like everyone else, she tried many different diets and programs, but would always regain the weight.

Many of us are starting to become tired of this game of life. We have been comparing and striving all our life. But no matter how much success we have achieved - we are still hollow and still have found nothing fulfilling. We don’t even know if happiness exists because it is no longer a living thing in our experience - it has become dead, as we only know it as a concept or memory. We have sought self-help advice, philosophies, and religious teachings to transform ourselves, but have not gotten anywhere.

Story
"I'm going down now", I said to a young woman a few seconds before the darkness-my first cardiac arrest. As I returned to work as a behavioral coach, it became maddening to hear about all-consuming, everyday problems and misguided priorities while I fought to merely remain conscious. The Half-Known Life challenges conventional thinking of success, identity, and personal change. Most often, truly profound change happens following events that shake someone to their core-a car accident, death of a family member, or cardiac arrest that pulls them into a moment of clarity.

Weight loss isn't a race. It isn't one size fits all. Everyone wants fast results, but when it comes to losing weight with crash diets, what goes down nearly always comes back up. And weight-loss programs designed to fit "everyone" are often too broad and restrictive to fit into the complicated lives of real people. Drawing on 20 years of experience, Dr. Rangan Chatterjee - BBC personality and author of the best-selling Feel Better in 5 - has created a conscious, compassionate, sustainable approach to weight loss that goes far beyond fad diets....
