105. The Myth of Short-Term Diet Success: The False Promises of Diet Culture

  • Summary

  • Ever wondered why most diets lead to short-term weight loss but long-term frustration? In this episode, we unpack the truth behind why so many diets fail and why regaining weight is more common than you think.

    We were inspired by a recent post in a Facebook moms group of a mom asking for weight loss tips - and countless other moms shared their struggles with the cycle of losing weight and gaining it back.

    In this episode, we share information about research behind dieting failures, the weight loss industry's misleading tactics, and why we need to rethink what “success” looks like when it comes to improving your health. This episode will help you explore more sustainable ways to improve your relationship with food, exercise, and your body. Learn practical strategies to move away from diet culture and embrace a healthier, happier you.

    In this episode:

    • Why diets fail in the long term and the research that supports it.
    • How diet culture distorts what success looks like in terms of health and weight loss.
    • The weight loss industry’s misleading tactics and how it gaslights people into believing weight regain is their fault.
    • How to redefine health success by focusing on behavior changes rather than just weight loss.
    • Practical tips for building a better relationship with food, exercise, and body confidence.
    • Ways to quiet diet culture messaging and find peace with your body.
    • Why exercise alone isn’t the answer for intentional weight loss but can enhance overall health and mental well-being.
