Why diets fail – and it’s not your fault
Strict rules rarely last. Understanding and balance do.
Too strict to last
Many diets cut calories or whole food groups too much. At first the weight drops, but hunger, tiredness and cravings grow until the plan simply cannot be followed any more.
The body adapts
With very little food, the body saves energy and may lose muscle. When normal eating returns, weight often comes back quickly — the well-known yo-yo effect.
No real understanding
A diet tells you what to eat, but rarely why. Without understanding portions, nutrients and your own needs, it is hard to continue when life changes.
A different way
Instead of a diet, I help you build meals from foods you enjoy, learn to read your body and make your own choices. Small, sustainable steps create results that stay.
