Medical Weight Loss
Regardless of where you are on your weight-loss journey, you’re likely living with the constant fear of gaining it all back. Your worry is not unfounded: Research suggests men and women on most traditional diets drop 5 to 10 percent of their original weight within the first six months, but less than 5 percent maintain that weight loss over time. Even worse, over two-thirds of dieters regain more than they lost. No wonder folks stay up late at night worrying if weight creep is lurking around the corner.

Emergency Care
At only age 46, Tim already had high cholesterol and blood pressure, and not much energy. He was also diagnosed with and treated for sleep apnea – often a complication of being overweight or obese. But because he was overwhelmed with life’s obligations, Tim missed these red flags. Then, one hot spring day, while riding the Metro from work, Tim felt faint, collapsed and landed in a hospital emergency room, where he was evaluated for a possible heart attack. As he listened to the “bleep, bleep, bleep” of the cardiac monitor, he realized how grateful he was for every “bleep” and how terrified he was of the alternative. When his wife and son rushed to his bedside, both shaken and begging him not to die, he finally acknowledged he was ready to change.

Macular Degeneration
Before the onset of macular degeneration in her later years, O’Keeffe’s pre-sleep ritual was to read cookbooks. Reflecting on the eye-opening new history about this beloved artist, I closed my eyes and imagined her dining on colorful, savory and healthy fare, followed by her love of climbing up the ladder at dusk to sit and view the stars.

Stress Management
Based upon her Discovery Health TV show The National Body Challenge, Dr. Peeke presents the stories of challenge and triumph from ordinary families taking themselves on to get more fit, healthy and empowered to live their dreams. You’ll be guided through the same full family-based program based on everyone in the family getting involved with cooking, physical activities and stress management. Most importantly, you’ll see how love and support throughout family challenges is the key to lifelong healthy and wellbeing for parents and children alike.
Mental Health
But new science is prompting doctors and other health professionals to take note of the impact of child abuse on long-term health and survival. In one recent, revealing study, scientists evaluated national survey data to determine the mortality rate of 6,300 people over the course of 20 years. The group was mostly white, roughly split between men and women, and had completed a questionnaire detailing any history of child abuse. At the end of the study, the average age of survivors was 47 years. The researchers controlled for other mitigating factors that could impact their findings, including socioeconomic status or mental health disorders.

Bariatric Surgery
Neglect, abandonment, isolation, and physical harm usually send young people on a desperate search for a way to numb and soothe their pain. Of course, food is the main accessible and primal reward. Laurie has her “Cheerios moments”—a habit of bingeing on cereal in the face of anxiety and stress—just as she did when her addict mother would play a twisted game of “Let’s pretend you’re adopted and not a member of this family.” Alice remembers her father adamantly declaring, “No one loves a fat woman.” She was 10, and believing that statement sent her into a panic, with years of fridge raids and bingeing and, eventually, bariatric surgery as an adult. Then there’s Erica, whose As in school were never good enough for her dad, who insisted on A-pluses. Emily endured years of physical and sexual abuse, resulting in constant self-soothing with food and an extra 100 pounds born of her pain.
