Origins of *The ACE Study* by irenelyon published on 2015-10-14T15:37:07Z In the early 80's some very odd findings started to occur during a massive weight loss intervention program in Souther California. The researchers were finding that those who are losing the most weight (like 100 lbs per year) were also the ones who were dropping out of the study and who didn't want to continue. It didn't make sense to them because if you were obtaining your goals, you'd think you'd want to continue. Right?! So it stumped them. But, as most solid science unfolds... the curiosity of the researchers and their questioning led to what might very well be the biggest health epidemic to be uncovered in a very long time. (and I'm not exaggerating!)

I would love to take a look at the questions that you mentioned. I can not find it around this podcast.

I refer to this study often in my work, and I am so grateful for this in depth discussion (and the reminder to stay grounded and present throughout). 2017-10-05T16:47:00Z Comment by daisy333 excellent video 2016-11-27T21:22:45Z
