Here are the basic principles of Health At Every Size (HAES):
-
Accepting and respecting the diversity of body shapes and sizes.
-
Recognizing that health and well-being are multi-dimensional and that they include physical, social, spiritual, occupational, emotional, and intellectual aspects.
-
Promoting all aspects of health and well-being for people of all sizes.
-
Promoting eating in a manner which balances individual nutritional needs, hunger, satiety, appetite, and pleasure.
-
Promoting individually appropriate, enjoyable, life-enhancing physical activity, rather than exercise that is focused on a goal of weight loss.
Health At Every Size (sometimes referred to as Health At Any Size, or Health For All Sizes) is a solution to health concerns that helps people live well without encouraging or reinforcing size/weight prejudices or phobias, poor body image, or eating disorders—or the negative health consequences of dieting-related weight loss and regain.
Work on a lifestyle that you can maintain for a healthy life.
