episode 28: How To Stop Dieting Once And For All
Are you sick and tired of dieting, having a crap relationship with food, and fear looking in the mirror every day? We struggle to love and be at peace with our bodies and our journey that we call life. I want to help you see what the $70 + billion dieting industry has done to us collectively over the years. I want to break down and debunk what's NOT working, and it's NOT your fault, and how to take massive action into the happiest and healthiest version of yourself.
In this Episode, You'll Learn:
· $$$$$$: The Diet and weight loss industry has grown to over $70 billion in 2021
· FAILING: Did you know research shows that 95% of diets fail
· EVERY TIME YOU DIET: We end up taking a rule with us. Before you know it, you're ten rules in and feeling frustrated AF.
· IT'S NOT YOU: It's the diet that's failing you.
· WE NEED FOOD: To survive, so it's tough to cut out something we need. It's about finding balance with it.
· YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH FOOD: What does your personal relationship with food look like? Asking yourself this question can help you see the barriers you've put up over time to help you lose weight for good.
· CALORIE SURPLUS: 3,500 extra calories = 1 pound of fat
· STOP THE CYCLE: The awful cycle of "starting on Monday."
· QUICK FIXES: We live in a world of quick fixes, always trying to find out how to we can take shortcuts to find ways to make the process go faster. This only harms us in the end.
FREEDOM FROM DIETING: With the proper structure, accountability, and system, you can help set you free from "dieting."
