A Science-Backed Alternative To Dieting…Combines intuitive eating, mindful habits and biohacks "stolen" from scientists outside the diet industry. Here’s the problem with anti-diet, intuitive and mindful eating books: How are you supposed to lose weight without dieting? How is “intuitive eating” going to help you manage 5-alarm cravings? How is “mindful eating” going to stop runaway hunger? Grand Theft Weight Loss “steals” the answers from an unexpected source--the archives of science, where researchers outside the diet industry figured out what all those weight-loss experts couldn’t: ★ HOW TO CUT YOUR HUNGER IN HALF Brain researchers, studying amnesia, stumbled onto a technique that can cut hunger by up to 50%. Use their concrete, easy-to-implement steps and you’ll find yourself wanting to eat less and less. ★ HOW TO CRAVE VEGETABLES THE WAY YOU CRAVE SUGAR Can you pine for apples the way you pray for pizza?

"Brilliantly faceted and extremely funny. . . . While I was reading it, I was making a list of all the people I wanted to send it to, until I realized that I wanted to send it to everyone I know." — Ann Patchett “Improbably charming...will have you chortling and reading lines aloud.” — PEOPLE The internationally bestselling, compulsively readable novel—spiky, sharp, intriguingly dark, and tender—that combines the psychological insight of Sally Rooney with the sharp humor of Nina Stibbe and the emotional resonance of Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine. Martha Friel just turned forty. Once, she worked at Vogue and planned to write a novel. Now, she creates internet content. She used to live in a pied-à-terre in Paris. Now she lives in a gated community in Oxford, the only person she knows without a PhD, a baby or both, in a house she hates but cannot bear to leave. But she must leave, now that her husband Patrick—the kind who cooks, throws her birthday parties, who loves her and has only ever wanted her to be happy—has just moved out. Because there’s something wrong with Martha, and has been for a long time. When she was seventeen, a little bomb went off in her brain and she was never the same. But countless doctors, endless therapy, every kind of drug later, she still doesn’t know what’s wrong, why she spends days unable to get out of bed or alienates both strangers and her loved ones with casually cruel remarks. And she has nowhere to go except her childhood home: a bohemian (dilapidated) townhouse in a romantic (rundown) part of London—to live with her mother, a minorly important sculptor (and major drinker) and her father, a famous poet (though unpublished) and try to survive without the devoted, potty-mouthed sister who made all the chaos bearable back then, and is now too busy or too fed up to deal with her. But maybe, by starting over, Martha will get to write a better ending for herself—and she’ll find out that she’s not quite finished after all.
