After Atkins: The Low-Carb Diet Recovery Program
Like its predecessors, the low-carb diet has failed those hoping for a solution to their weight struggles.
Also like its predecessors, it has left in its wake people who don't know how to eat anymore. Just how are you supposed to eat to manage your weight and stay healthy?
That's the question answered in the upcoming series After Atkins: The Low-Carb Diet Recovery Program, offered January ? March 2005 at Green Mountain at Fox Run, a women's retreat that pioneered the non-diet approach to healthy weights over 30 years ago.
"In the past year, we've received innumerable calls from women who have tried and failed at low-carb dieting," says Alan H. Wayler, PhD, executive director of Green Mountain.
"They're defeated, depressed and desperate, still looking for a way to lose and reach a healthy weight.
They call us -- the country's oldest non-diet program -- because they're tired of dieting and are looking for a new approach that will help them end this struggle once and for all."After successfully losing significant weight on a low-carb diet, these women have seen their weights climb rapidly, often to even higher levels than before the diet.
Casualties of this and many other diets over the years, these women now find themselves terrified of eating carbohydrate foods such as bread, pasta, cereal and sweets; they also harbor a fear of fat leftover from previous dieting regimens.
The result:
In trying to avoid most foods, they end up alternately starving, then bingeing, entangled in a destructive relationship with food that promises to exacerbate weight problems and spell doom for future health.???"As long as we continue to focus on dieting, which food is slimming this month and fattening the next, we will continue to foster a nation of disordered eaters and a fast-climbing incidence of obesity," says Wayler.
"We need to forget dieting and concentrate on nurturing healthy lifestyles, which includes normalizing our relationship with food, being engaged in physical activity that feels good, reducing stress, and other lifestyle choices and behaviors that support age-related changes and general well-being.
And we need to work on accepting healthy but larger body sizes in this society."Green Mountain's Low-Carb Diet Recovery Program offers women an opportunity to develop self-nurturing behaviors, including normal eating that includes all foods, eaten in a way that promotes health, well-being and healthy weights.
Women attending this program will learn how to:- Give up dieting, not food.- Lose or maintain weight while eating their favorite foods.- Stop ?yo-yo' dieting.- Overcome compulsive and binge eating.- Enjoy physical activity and design programs that fit their individual lifestyles to begin or jumpstart a regular physical activity routine.- Be healthy, happy and at peace with themselves and their bodies.To register for the After Atkins: The Low-Carb Diet Recovery Program, interested participants may call Green Mountain at Fox Run at (800) 448-8106 (outside the U.S., call (802) 228-8885) or visit http://www.fitwoman.comFor interviews, please contact Marsha Hudnall at (802) 228-8885 or e-mail protected from spam bots.About Green Mountain at Fox RunGreen Mountain at Fox Run healthy lifestyle center, in Ludlow, VT, has helped thousands of women to get fit, healthy, and happy ? and permanently achieve healthy weights without dieting by developing real,lasting solutions.

Former Alcoholics from Ayrshire in Scotland Welcome American Addiction Expert Stanton Peele's New Book on Recovery
Two former alcoholics, Lilian and Murdoch MacDonald, a married couple living in Ayrshire, Scotland, have warmly welcomed the publication of a new book written by social psychologist Dr. Stanton Peele called 7 Tools to Beat Addiction.In his latest book, addiction expert Dr. Peele once again explodes the myth, prevalent in the United States and becoming more so elsewhere in the world, that alcoholism, drug abuse and other addictions are a disease which is bio-genetic in origin, and for which addicts must seek medical treatment or join a support group like Alcoholics Anonymous.Dr Peele argues that addiction is not a disease, nor is it limited to alcohol or to drugs - it can include, for instance food, shopping and sex. He maintains that addiction is a pattern of dysfunctional behaviour and experience that is best understood by examining an individual's relationship with his or her world. Rather than a disease, it is a manifestation of lack of skills for coping with life ? a lack that can...
