We don’t get fat because we overeat; we overeat because we’re getting fat.

Calories in, calories out has been the dominant theory of obesity for more than a century. But instead of making us smarter, it’s made us fatter and sicker.

Weight gain is not a disease of insufficient willpower; it's a hormonal imbalance. More specifically, it's too much insulin.

Food is not just calories; it is information. It tells our body what to do.

We're not gaining weight because we're eating too much but because we're not eating the right foods.

Dieting makes you fat. It’s not overeating that makes you fat. The process of dieting, itself, makes you fat.

The solution to obesity is not to eat less, but to eat less often.

The solution to the obesity epidemic is not to tell everybody to go on a diet. Diets, as we understand them, simply do not work.

The real problem is not weight loss. It is keeping it off. Virtually everybody can lose weight. The problem is that we regain it.

Long-term weight loss requires long-term dietary changes. Sustained weight loss requires a lifetime of dietary change.
