Pensar Perder o Peso que Pesa (thinking about losing the weight you weigh) is the title of the latest book by endocrinologist Professor Isabel do Carmo. As the title suggests, this book published by Dom Quixote addresses issues related to being overweight. The launch took place at Fnac Colombo in Lisbon on 14 May.
In this work, Professor Isabel do Carmo discusses myths associated with weight loss, explaining that there is no such thing as ideal weight and giving tips for a healthy diet suitable to each individual. The Director of the Endocrinology Service of Santa Maria Hospital presented a table of calories and foods as well as recipes for weight loss. Finally, she suggested to women living alone or who were often alone ways to cook quick and healthy dinners.
The presentation was conducted by journalist Fernanda Freitas and was attended by three patients who gave their testimonies.
