Economists Payne and Barnett apply the principles of their discipline to weight loss in this uniquely themed and user-friendly guide. The authors share their stories of taking on and then shedding excess pounds and conclude that the crux of the obesity epidemic rests on the glut of food in the developed world. They argue that the habit of eating more than necessary is fueled by mass production of processed food and by a resulting culture of abundance that prizes instant gratification. To combat this trend, the two men suggest an "austerity program," as opposed to the "speculative boom" of choosing immediate gratification over long-term consequences. Their key suggestions include a daily weigh-in, becoming calorie conscious, eating one square meal a day (as opposed to three), rejecting fad diets, limiting variety, and adopting a "mini-feast/mini-fast" lifestyle. Payne and Barnett make clear that this is not a nutrition book, though they do advise limiting carbs and eating more fruits and vegetables. While some dieters may balk at the advice to "embrace hunger," others will find the authors' down-to-earth, realistic tactics (e.g., enjoy the occasional big meal, but cut back the next day) both motivating and sensible.
Hyman (Eat Fat, Get Thin), a bestselling health author and practitioner of the "functional medicine" approach, revisits the topic of his earlier books: why a lack of understanding about good nutrition, coupled with misleading, conflicting media hype, leads to poor food choices and makes people sick and out of shape. Thus, Hyman recycles his diet plan once again. It remains a sensible, anti-inflammatory, whole-food/"real food" approach. Now called the Pegan Diet, it's intended to combine the best of the paleo plan with a vegan regimen. Pegan is a silly, paradoxical misnomer: no diet can be simultaneously paleo (meat, fats, and few vegetables/fruit) and vegan (with no animal products whatsoever). However, the diet's recommendations are basically sound: fresh, locally sourced, preferably organic food; nothing refined or processed; and a focus on not raising blood sugar. Adding to the impression that Hyman's book itself is less than fresh, he spends some time recapping the "10-Day Detox" from his earlier book The Blood Sugar Solution as a lead-in to the Pegan plan. The result is nothing new, but it should prove as popular as Hyman's earlier efforts with health enthusiasts who believe in the promises of functional medicine.
Brennan and Isaacs, who hold PhDs in philosophy and work at Western University in Ontario, decided on the eve of their forty-eighth birthdays to become the fittest they'd ever been in their lives by the time they reached the half-century mark. Appropriately, they called their effort the Fittest by 50 Challenge. Simultaneously, they launched a blog called Fit Is a Feminist Issue. Motivated by fun, not weight loss, and weary of the sea of pink that dominates women's fitness, they set out. Their account of their experiences is fun and funny, even as they recall a few low points in women's fitness history, such as when Kathrine Switzer used just her initials to enter the Boston Marathon in 1967, when women weren't allowed on the course. They're philosophers and feminists, not health-care professionals, but who cares? Their enthusiasm for their healthy new lifestyle is infectious: As Brennan says, 40 is the old age of youth and 50 is the youth of old age.' Their core audience, middle-aged women, will like their spirit, summed up in their final line: Happy birthday to us: fit, feminist, over 50, and fine with that!
