Abstract:
Diet fads and fitness trends offer the prospect of losing weight, but rarely work out long-term. Using a mindfulness-based method called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), the authors promote a holistic approach to well-being and weight-loss that goes beyond calorie counting. You'll get results, and learn how to maintain a healthy weight-- and a healthy sense of well-being-- for the rest of your life.
