The Real Reason 95% of People Regain Weight Back
from Make Peace With Food · host Sherry Shaban
Why do 95% of people who lose weight on a diet gain it all back within a year?In this episode of Make Peace with Food, I share why diets don’t actually fail because of lack of discipline, motivation, or willpower—but because diets never address the use of food as a tool for self-regulation. Like with emotional eating and night time binging. I dive deep into how our nervous system drives emotional eating, bingeing, and compulsive cravings, and how learning to regulate your nervous system can finally break the cycle.If you’ve ever wondered why diets feel impossible to stick with or why weight loss never lasts, this conversation will shift the way you see food, your body, and your habits.
