  • Every year, billions of women continue a never-ending quest to lose weight and achieve the “perfect” physique. But this quest is a trap-one that keeps women sick, stressed, distracted, and depleted. To create a generation of healthy, strong women who are focused not on their body size but on solving real world problems, we must dismantle the harmful weight loss industry and the body-obsessed “diet culture” that this industry has spawned. Susan Hyatt is a master certified life and business coach who has helped thousands of women to transform their bodies and lives. Susan is the author of two books, Create Your Own Luck and BARE. Her work has been featured in places like O: The Oprah Magazine, Woman’s World, Cosmopolitan,and The Huffington Post. She’s the creator of The BARE Process, a trademarked system for upgrading your mental and physical health, building more energy and confidence, and creating the life that you want. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

      She was comparing that not because of the job, but the importance of the job. Women in the workplace have important jobs that we are not focused on because we’re so busy focusing on losing weight. How can we do our jobs as well if all of our energy and mind power is focused somewhere else?

      true. so many men suffer from diet culture. it's just that statistically women are more subject to negative body images, and are encouraged to go on dangerously restrictive diets and are congratulated when they look like a twig about to die off at any second. comparatively, most men are encouraged to look more muscular, stronger, bigger going on food choices that allow for a lot of good protein. not saying that bodybuilding can't create body dysmorphia and food restriction, but the intensity definitely varies.

      It's just as bad as "junk food" culture in my opinion. I know she is not promoting unhealthy eating, but not every diet is bad. Not every restriction is bad. Sometimes we need to tell outselves "no more chocolate for today" or something like that right?

    I'm sure that you had good intentions but you can be both at the same time. You can be succesful and on a diet. Losing weight takes me only a bit of time and energy. Measuring food/calorie counting takes only a few minutes everyday. I make my meal plans every 3 days, creating one takes 10 minutes. Cooking takes more time but i would be doing that anyway if i didn't want to starve to death. Workout takes half an hour, and you don't need to do that everyday. So you still have a plenty of time and energy to pursue your other, more important goals.
