How to get healthy without dieting | Darya Rose | TEDxSalem

Darya discusses how psychology impacts our ability to create healthy eating habits. Darya is a neuroscientist, author and popular blogger who has trained her sights and talents on solving the age-old problem of eating healthy and losing weight.
Her holistic approach to food and health is a breath of fresh air compared to the stuffy supermarket shelves of diet shakes and appetite suppressants.
After receiving her BA in Molecular and Cell Biology from UC Berkeley, Darya received her PhD from UC San Francisco and writes about food, health and weight loss. Her website ‘Summer Tomato’ was one of TIME’s top 50 websites in 2011 and if social media is any indicator, her message that “life should be awesome” is reaching far and wide.
Darya describes herself as a “foodist”, which is a term for someone who has abandoned dieting to enjoy life using real food and also the name of her book - Foodist: Using Real Food and Real Science to Lose Weight Without Dieting.
Interpretation for TEDxSalem VI (2019) was provided by student interns through a collaboration between Western Oregon University, TEDxSalem, and the Deaf and interpreting communities of Oregon. The volunteer student interpreters were supported by volunteer, certified interpreters in order to minimize potential errors. Your support of these pre-professional interpreters’ growing skills is appreciated. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

    “I adored all these things, they brought me joy and fulfillment. My healthy habits were now an expression of self love rather than self hatred.” As soon as I heard her say these words.. I couldn’t help myself but to tear up. it’s such a beautiful rewarding feeling to finally be at peace with yourself, your thoughts, and food.

    1- The new habits you want to create need to be intrinsically enjoyable. 2- Cultivate awareness around your thoughts, actions and emotions(buzzword- mindfulness). 3- Develop a growth mindset. What work,What didn't work,What to do differently to make it work next time. These questions can change your mindset from 'fixed' to 'growth'.

There was one time I actually related to this as only habits and it was successful until I thought I had to get leaner and more fit (I already looked good!) and went on a diet. A very strict one. It only lasted a week. I haven't been able to get back into that mindset, and it's been a year and a half. 😔

    Missteps are part of the learning process. Not only do setbacks not define you, they are opportunities to grow and learn more about how you and the world work. Rather than focusing on what didn't work out for you or what's impossible to change, someone with a growth mindset always stays focused on what's workable. They focus their attention on the action or the things they can control to get a different outcome next time. To cultivate this mindset in yourself - ask yourself 3 questions.1. What works 2. What didn't work 3. What can I do differently next time.This great talk seems underappreciated.

    I didn’t think I liked to run because my legs would hurt afterwards and not in a good way. So I bought myself an iPod and I started running with one song then walking for the next and so on. I like it much better now also while knowing I’m using different muscles by interchanging the activities. Now I’m doing 5k almost everyday. That’s a goal I’ve set myself and when I become strong I will keep increasing the distance 😉

    It's not easy. You need to experiment. I see it like cracking open a safe. You need to test different foods and strategies (or fitness activities). When you find one that is a) manageable b) enjoyable and c) effective then bingo! You have opened one of the numbers on the safe. (not all of them - just one) The thing is what works for me won't work for you. That's why diets don't work - everyone has their own secret combination. Have fun experimenting and I hope you find something that works for you!

    Yes, this is so true. I love how in your example you're sharing healthy foods to stay balanced around. There is no inherently wrong way to keep balanced (it is all based on your belief system and what you think is right or wrong) but many think, " Oh, if I eat this salad, then I can have this piece of oreo cheesecake. And while I don't think this should necessarily be discouraged I do wonder "what if we raised our standards a bit and focused more on nutritionally sound foods as a way to stay balanced instead of nutritionally deficient ones"? But it is VERY hard and I do acknowledge that.
