ABOUT
Because we live in diet culture, people think the solution to one failed diet is to find another, “better” diet.
Habitually jumping from one restrictive eating plan to another is so commonplace that we have a name for it: yo-yo dieting.
But, as any past or current yo-yo dieters know, even very different diets tend to lead to the same result: initial weight loss, eventual weight regain. If you couldn’t lose weight on a diet, it isn’t your fault ? there’s tons of evidence that long-term weight loss just doesn’t happen for most people.
The pressure to try a new diet is much more at the beginning of the new year. But are you not tireed of being told the foods you actually love do not fit in your weigth loss diet?
But where do you start?
How do you sustain weigth loss beyond January? And how do you focus on what’s right for you versus what everyone else is doing?
Well, we have your back.
