5 Reasons Why Diets Fail: How To Lose Weight With Mindful Eating

Published on 16 May 2024 at 13:51

As someone who tried every single diet you can possibly think of, I am now my healthiest NOT on a diet.  I want you to experience the freedom too! 

 

So why do most diets not work?? 

 

According to Dr. Mark Hyman, functional medicine doctor, Director of the Cleveland Clinic Center for Functional Medicine and New York Times bestselling author of “Ultrametabolism” and “Ultrawellness” most diets predictably fail because of 5 reasons…

 

  1. You try to exercise your willpower to control your appetite instead of understanding there is a science behind hunger
  2. Your focus is too much on counting calories
  3. Your diet consists of all low-fat foods
  4. Your weight is actually affected by hidden reasons that require medical attention
  5. You lack a solid health and weight loss plan to guide you on your journey

 

Dr Hyman also says that when the average dieter loses weight, they lose muscle AND fat.

But once they regain the weight, they gain back only the fat… which will ultimately slow down your metabolism.

 

That’s not what we want!

 

How can I succeed mindful eating?

 

Here are 5 success tips that will keep you in peak health without dieting:

 

  1. Be aware of your hunger and fullness cues.  
  2. Understand if you are physically hungry or emotionally hungry. 
  3. Know what triggers your self sabotaging behaviors.
  4. Eat for energy and learn from foods that make you feel tired and sluggish. 
  5. Confront any limiting beliefs you may have around being healthy. 

 

What if I need more guidance? 

 

After spending years dieting, my relationship with food was awful.   I was never truly successful until I learned how to eat mindfully, understand my hunger and fullness cues and actually understand my body on a deeper level.  

 

This didn't happen over night and I made small changes each week.

 

It all came to a head after having my daughter, I knew I had to make a change because the last thing I wanted was her to go through the same troubles as I did.

 

I became a certified health, life, nutrition, and mindset coach- I started implementing what I learned and now, as I get ready to have my third baby, having helped hundreds of women in the last 4 years, I am confident that what I teach works.  

 

Because I want EVERYONE to have this information, I created an affordable, go at your own pace course, all on creating a great relationship with food.
