Description
Replace shame and guilt with self-compassion to change the way you think about weight loss
Author Shahroo Izadi presents a new approach losing weight—without ever telling you what or how to eat. In The Last Diet., she shares how the same evidence-based tools she used effectively with her clients who struggle with addiction helped her to lose over a hundred pounds, increase her self-esteem, and transform her habits around food and negative self-talk.
Diets often offer quick, short-term fixes and so-called miracle cures, but the real challenge is managing weight and changing habits over a sustained period of time. Everybody's journeys and needs are different: it’s about shifting the way we communicate with ourselves and our bodies every single day, in every aspect of our lives. Shahroo’s revolutionary kindness method gives readers the tools to embrace self-kindness and self-respect and in doing so change the narrative of health.
Using a custom-tailored plan, The Last Diet. will help you identify where your unhealthy habits come from, teach you how change them, and show you what to do when you slip up. Shahroo guides you through every step, helping you to draw out your own wisdom and find motivation to change your long-term habits and lose weight – for good.

Michael Z, Reviewer
As a woman, I feel as though we are always "dieting". There's always 5 pounds to lose to fit into a dress, feel better, look a certain way, etc.
"So, if the problem isn’t knowing what you need to do, or knowing how to do it, then why haven’t you done it yet? These are the questions that this book is here to help you to answer" Right from the beginning I appreciated Izadi's honesty. This wasn't going to be a book that told me what to do. Add in her background, both in personally losing weight, and professionally working with addiction and as a behavioral change specialist, gave me the assurances that she was qualified in what she was discussing.
I love that she shared her personal story with weight loss. Losing weight is something I think we feel shame over and to read her personal story allows the reader to really connect with Izadi and not feel alone.
This book served as a workbook to me. A way to help focus on my reasons for weight loss, aside from wanting to be a certain size or fit into certain clothes, and really connect with my inner why. The deeper stuff. I found the exercises to be useful and insightful into why I do certain things and how I can make better choices.
