I wrote this for a friend who was interested, and decided to post it here as well. It's generally good info for... well, everyone.
On HAES.
HAES stands for Health At Every Size. The deal is that health is a real issue in our society, and we have erroneously linked it to weight. The fact is USians like being couch potatoes and 'cleaning' their plates of comfort and bored food, and that can be a problem. HAES focuses on health, rather than weight, so instead of using a scale and a calorie counter, HAES folks learn intuitive eating and enjoyable physical movement.
