You've at least thought about it. I'll google it. How many calories is in one egg? How many calories isn't one slice of turkey vacant? More likely than not, you've actually obsessed about it. I've always been battling this idea that if I was skinnier, then so many of my problems would go away and I would just be happier. There's just one problem, the battle to lose weight. It's a losing battle. There is so much noise going on in their head saying you shouldn't be eating that, Why
are you eating that? You're such a bad person. Diets don't really do the thing they're supposed to do help people lose weight. In fact, trying to lose weight can actually backfire. It can make it harder to keep pounds off. I want to be healthy, but for whatever reason, my body's wants me to get that again. Diets are bad science that we keep falling for no matter how much
they fail us. We've spent billions of dollars trying to understand obesity and white management, and it just seems like it's all going into a black holt and the only ones winning are the people selling them. We tried new and I lost ten pounds, which me was huge. I'm Ema Court, the host of Losing It, a new show
from Bloomberg's Prognosis. In this seven part series, I'm going to tell you all about how we got everything from calorie counting to the relationship between weight and health totally wrong. We've got this disconnect. We think weight is the big issue when it's really not. Losing It launches July twelve.
