How many times have you tried to diet only to give up after a week? Or maybe you were able to stick to the Whole 30 diet for a month, but as soon as the month was up you were back to your old ways? The stats are pretty depressing …. up to 90% of people that lose weight end up gaining most or all of it back within 3 to 5 years. Why the bleak stats?
Most people trying to lose weight are looking for a quick fix and promise of rapid weight loss. The thought of losing ½ -2 pounds a week isn’t enticing! The problem is that most “diets” don’t work on making behavior changes, take into account your lifestyle, eating habits, food preferences, eating triggers, etc. In addition, many diets tend to restrict certain food groups (usually carbs) in order to promote a rapid weight loss. This restricted plan is usually sustainable for only a short period of time. After that, most people fall right back into their old eating habits and regain the weight, and often more. In order to lose weight and keep it off, you’ll need to learn how to identify problem areas and make permanent behavior changes in diet and exercise as well as other areas including sleep, stress, and less sedentary time.
