Why Do Diets Fail You?

Diets are destined to fail you because

  • Diets do not address all the factors related to food choices.
  • Diets focus on the scale instead of behavior changes.
  • Diets do not often include, encourage, or promote physical activity.
  • iets do not require a lifestyle change.
  • Diets have a beginning and an end.
  • Diets create a parent/child relationship with food (being “good” or “bad” when you eat, or avoid, certain foods) that frequently leads to rebellious eating.
  • Diets do not require you to change the way you think about food.
  • Your body desires weight stability and will go to great lengths to maintain your current weight.
