Publisher's Summary

Debunk diet myths and make better food choices with this helpful guide that will transform the way you think about nutrition and health.

Whether it's a new fad, "detox" diet, news report, or a celebrity-endorsed supplement, the constant flow of diet information is cluttered, conflicting, and often devoid of scientific research - leaving millions of us confused, overwhelmed, and feeling totally helpless in taking ownership of our health and making better food choices.

In Dressing on the Side, Jaclyn London - the nutrition director of Good Housekeeping - debunks the diet myths and mental blocks that keep you from reaching your health and weight-loss goals. In this audiobook filled with accessible information, simple strategies, and practical application of scientific research, London breaks down what's at the heart of the issue and offers tools, shortcuts, and solutions that work within any scenario, including:

  • Using your schedule to inform your food choices
  • Identifying "fake" nutrition news
  • Eating to feel satisfied, not just "full"
  • Making the choice to eat dessert - daily

London empowers us to form lifelong habits that result in real, long-lasting change - while meeting the demands of our busier-than-ever lifestyles. Dressing on the Side is the anti-diet audiobook that will completely transform the way you think (and speak!) about food and health - and help you lose weight for good.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Critic Reviews

"Better (not perfect) health depends on eliminating your self-shaming and cognitive distortions of your own abilities. [London] wants us to focus on achieving our personal best [with] simple to understand nutritional workarounds for all sorts of real-life situations."—New York Times Book Review

"In an energetic and easy-to-follow guide, London, nutrition director at Good Housekeeping magazine, cuts through the clutter of diets, myths, and trends to help her audience create a 'do less' strategy for weight loss and eating a healthier diet...Concluding that 'no one knows what's best for you better than you do,' London will leave dieters feeling inspired and reassured.—Publishers Weekly

"With countless fad diets and detoxes out there, it's hard to separate science from the noise. Enter: Dressing on the Side...London debunks common diet myths and breaks down how to identify "fake" nutrition news. She also provides great advice on how to clear mental blocks that keep you from reaching your weight-loss goals and improving your overall health."—Prevention

F*cking Brilliant- so practical and realistic!

This book has been a game changer for me. I wasn’t eating “badly” per se but thoughtlessly. This book helped me to 1. Get in touch with how to eat in a more healthy way with a little planning and some simple rules of thumb 2. Recognise that anything can be ok to eat - as long as it’s a choice to eat (and really pay attention to) and enjoy 3. Take away the shame-y stuff and be able to more objectively view what fuel I’m choosing to put in my body. It has great practical resources and encouragement along the way. The realness of the author/reader (who drops an occasional brilliantly timed F bomb) is refreshing and relatable. Already recommended to many friends who appreciate a science based, fad busting approach to how to make and keep healthy habits.
