Most diets actually work to help people lose weight.The “fail” happens 𝒂𝒇𝒕𝒆𝒓 weight loss, when people go off the diet and fail to maintain the weight lost.I meet 𝒕𝒉𝒐𝒔𝒆 folks every day.When you’re 𝒐𝒏 the diet, choices become black and white: the food is either on or off the diet plan. But when you go 𝒐𝒇𝒇 the diet, everything is in the gray area: Is it OK to eat or not?Diets don’t teach you how to eat for a lifetime; they teach restrictive diet planning. So, once you lose the weight and go off the diet, you go back to the way you were eating before that led to your over-weight.Most people I meet in my office are experts at going on diets . . . to go off them!Learning how to eat correctly — while living life — is not what too many people do well, but it 𝒊𝒔 what’s required to have weight loss and maintenance success.
