Why Diets Are Designed to Fail
Psst: here is a secret that the diet industry doesn't want you to know: restricting your food intake leads to feeling out of control around food. It doesn't matter if we try Whole 30, Keto, Paleo, vegan, raw, or any of the other plans that promise to bring us a better, thinner, and healthier life; diets never deliver on their grand promises in the long-term. We'll delve into the fundamental flaws of dieting and what makes it an inherently faulty product.
Why We Blame Ourselves for the Failures of Dieting (and Why That Isn't Helping Us)
In one of the greatest hoaxes of all time, the dieting industry has convinced us that it is our fault that their plans don't work. And we believe them, reprimanding ourselves for not having more self-control, motivation, or discipline. Not only is this belief false, but it keeps us stuck in shame and prevents us from being able to move forward out of the diet-overeat-self-hatred cycle. Are you ready to get unstuck?
How to Find Food Freedom
What would it be like to work with your body instead of struggling to fight against it? To break-free from the binds of dieting and start living a life full of delicious food freedom? We will learn about a radically different way of approaching food and our eating that can help you get back in the drivers' seat.
