We are becoming more and more obsessed with being thin...as we get fatter and fatter! The craziest part is that most weight loss 'solutions' are actually part of the problem. Diet and exercise programs fail 97% of people in the long-term, resulting in short term weight loss, medium term regain and long-term gain approximately 10 to 15% above starting weight.

Scientists have known this reality for decades - the entire diet industry is based on it - yet we keep on falling for promises of fast, easy, permanent weight loss (and other fictional tales), putting ourselves through rebranded versions of the exact same thing...and expecting different results. Some might call this insanity - weight management psychologist Glenn Mackintosh calls it Thinsanity.

Glenn's book, Thinsanity, aims to transform the way we approach weight management of the body, by starting with the mind. New scientific developments are offering insights into a compassionate way to make peace with food, fall in love with physical movement, and learn to love your body healthy. Glenn takes all those new scientific developments and expresses them the way he does with his clients: clearly and with lots of understanding. This book is right for anyone who wants to learn to love their body and be healthy in it.

An insight on ending diet insanity!

Reviewed in Australia on 15 January 2020

This is such an insightful and well referenced/researched book. It explains why we have such a messed up dieting culture and provides data as to why so many diets fail. Glenn writes with clever references and witty undertones. For anyone who’s looking to get off the insane cycle of dieting, I recommend this book enough.

A must read

All I can say is - wow!!!

I believe this is a book that every teen girl (and possibly guy) needs to be handed. It uses science, studies, statistics and the considerable experience of Glenn, who was a psych at one of the major private hospitals in Brisbane providing bariatric surgery - to eviscerate the diet industry. He proves - even to those who are doubting right now - that diets DO NOT WORK and lead to a cycle of putting more weight on. This book will stop you ever being sucked into the vortex of any other diet, eating plan, 12 week challenge, detox ever again. The book also leads you through the steps to learn to know yourself better, understand your triggers and find ways to lead your best life. He helps you to find ways to make movement fun - yep he’s big on fun because life sucks without it. Honestly, if you’ve ever tried to lose weight or to exercise weight off - please just open this and try it - you won’t be disappointed. Glenn writes like he’s talking to you face to face and it’s easy to read with easy to work through steps based in psychological principals of CBT. Since knowing Glenn, I’ve learned to be less judgemental of myself and to live more. This book can help everyone to do that too. He gives real hacks for dealing with those situations AND people who trigger you.

Best mindset book I’ve ever read!!

Reviewed in Australia on 24 February 2020

Finally a book that I can relate to completely. This book has changed my life and the way I look at and think about myself. I can’t speak highly enough about Thinsanity. If you need help getting off the Diet cycle and taking back control of your life then do yourself a favour and buy buy buy it. You won’t regret it.

This Book is long overdo

Glenn successfully blasts the diet industry while offering concrete science based solutions to free ourselves of the harmful effects that diets cause. He also goes after the marketing strategies of the health and beauty industry that help to create this insidious cycle so many of us have struggled with. And all of this and more with humor and compassion. His exercises are both easy and effective. And his passion for people to really love the lives they live comes through in every chapter. Having struggled with weight and body image issues since childhood, this book has helped me align myself with what really matters vs a number on the scale. I can’t recommend this book enough...especially if you too struggle with dieting and body image issues. You’ll learn a ton and have some guidelines to create a new experience with your health and body.

I love Glenn's approach. He doesn't shame you for still wanting to lose weight like alot of books about IE do. I found it refreshing to be supported with no judgement and practical tips to help me improve all areas of my life.
