Number One Globe and Mail Best Seller
Join the movement. Ditch the diet.
Who's ready to stop thinking about weight loss? To free their brain from thoughts about ketones, calories, and fasting? Who wants life to be more effortless, energetic, and empowered?
Welcome to a refreshing and gloriously unapologetic conversation about health, fitness, and habits. Award-winning trainer Oonagh Duncan cuts through the wellness clutter to drop some truth bombs: It might not be six-pack abs you're looking for - it might be happiness, confidence, and acceptance. But if losing your belly is what you want, don't let anyone - including yourself - stop you from going after it. And she'll show you how to make it happen.
There's only one major difference between those rare unicorns who have managed to lose weight and the rest of us: their habits. When you acknowledge that following a diet is not getting you anywhere, and you make a few small changes to your everyday routine, you'll find yourself happier and healthy as f--k.

When it comes to setting and achieving your goals, how you think influences what you do. Whether developing a sustainable relationship with food, jump-starting a new fitness routine to shoot for a certain number on the scale, or tackling a health issue, mindset is key to meeting your goals—but it can also often be the most neglected element in any attempt to change behavior. While you might know what you want to do, the key to success is understanding why you want to do it, and how you make a plan that works for you in the long term.

What the critics say
“A no-BS guide to looking and feeling your best that doesn’t make you want to cry into a salad? Hell yes! Healthy as F*ck is a different kind of weight-loss book - because it’s not just about dropping pounds; it’s about dropping judgment. Hilarious and legitimately inspiring. I loved it.” (Sarah Knight, New York Times best-selling author of Calm the F*ck Down)
“I love Oonagh’s ability to cut through the crap and communicate simple, livable ways to eat healthy, exercise, and create new sustainable habits in a clear and direct way!” (Harley Pasternak, New York Times best-selling author of The Body Reset Diet)
“Oonagh Duncan is smart, to the point, and will make you laugh, but most importantly Healthy as F*ck provides some foundational habits and strategies to help you make lasting, long-term changes for your well-being.” (Michael Greger, MD, Founder of NutritionFacts.org, and New York Times best-selling author of How Not to Die)

I’m implementing these aspects
Her goals to assist people in achieving their healthy lifestyle, is valid. We are made up of habits. Finding their triggers, assessing how they affect us, and treating them is key.
Her ability to identify these through story and example is extremely entertaining and hits the spot in so many ways.

I love Oonagh's frank, yet loving, advice. This is a book I turn to again and again when I need another dose of Why I'm Doing This, because changing habits and lifestyles is HARD. She breaks it all down into 7 Habits that every healthy person has, which is just what I needed to get started on this journey. Thank you Oonagh!

Textbook Anthony Robbins
As I listen to the first several chapters, I can’t help but thinking over and over, “I’ve heard all of this before!” And then it’s confirmed in a later chapter. She’s at the very least a Tony Robbins follower.
As a male, this book is written for females firstly, but anyone can apply the techniques offered.
I’m also a USN veteran- a sailor at heart. So while F bombs don’t bother me, there were too many in this book in my opinion. I do understand the usage to emphasize but keep it in check.
So if you’re female you’ll connect with this book likely. If you’re masculine, you’ll probably put it down, but you ought not to as it’s worth finishing and implementing the strategies laid out.
