Food insecurity is a complex ‘wicked’ problem that results from a range of unstable and uncertain physical, social, cultural and economic factors that limits access to nutritious food. Globally, 800 million people are under-nourished, and around 2 billion are overweight/obese or have micronutrient deficiency. These populations are largely positioned in developing countries where disease burden is high and impacts health budgets and productivity. Similarly developed countries, cities and neighbourhoods are experiencing a greater emergence of vulnerable populations. This is in part explained by the change in the food production and manufacturing, the retraction in economic climates, the increase in food price, and in some regions reduced food availability and access.Vulnerable groups include but are not limited to migrant populations, Indigenous people, elderly, pregnant women, those with disability, homeless, young children and youth. Poor nutrition at significant periods of growth and development and during life impact long term health outcomes increasing non-communicable disease prevalence, health cost and reducing economic productivity.

The Relational Dimensions of Weight Management is a book for nonspecialist psychotherapists of any theoretical orientation to help patients concerned with weight management. Psychotherapy patients use their therapists as sounding boards to help them answer two questions: Do I need to lose weight? And, if I do need to lose weight, how should I go about it? Chapters provide therapists with the tools they need to help patients find personalized solutions to their weight loss concerns, to boost their self-image, and to deal with the judgment that is sometimes imposed by others, regardless of which weight management approach patients eventually embrace.
