  • I encourage everyone to read “Rethinking Thin” by Gina Kolata. It discusses how we are genetically programmed for a set weight range. When we try to go below that our body’s metabolism slows and our body sabotages our “diet” by employing fattening cravings. Unfortunately, the people who are genetically thin are the ones we see on the media. The author used the terminology “fashionably thin.” So, thin is not necessarily health linked, but a trend. This book has added a layer of understanding in my weight loss journey. Here’s a link if you want to read more; http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?st…
