Have you lost weight in the past only to regain it a short time later? Have you followed every diet including Whole30, Paleo, Atkins, Keto, Fasting? How do you get off the diet roller coaster and on the path to permanent weight loss? All of these diets work, and none of them work, meaning you can and probably do lose weight on any of them, but you may not always keep the weight off. Why not? Because our brains are designed to protect us from weight loss and our brain will push us back to our previous routine; the same routine that caused increased weight in the first place.
Now, each person varies when it comes to their response to different weight-loss interventions. There are plenty of billboard cases where a fad diet gives a slam dunk result and now the person is publicized everywhere because of it.
But what happens to those of us who try the fad diet and it doesn’t work? We start to believe there must be ANOTHER diet out there that has the answer. So we then move to the NEXT diet. For a few weeks, we rejoice, because this diet does work, but we can’t seem to stay on it for a very long time. So it ends, and surely we think, there is another way and another diet out there for me!
The vicious cycle continues.
We keep on this hamster wheel, but instead of jumping from diet to diet, I suggest we revamp the entire playing field.
How do we change this? We use the science of Obesity Medicine to uncover what is blocking you from permanent weight loss. See, our weight is controlled by complex physiology. Our body WANTS to keep us at a weight it deems safe and we need to work to not just change our diet but to reduce our body’s weight set-point.
When we reduce our body’s weight set-point, we can finally lose weight.
