WHAT DOES YOUR SOUL WANT BEFORE WEIGHT LOSS?
The downside of quick weight loss.
Everyone wants to lose weight fast because quick results gives us the motivation to keep going, right?!! That's all well and good and everything, but there are at least 4 downsides to fast weight loss.
Here's why fast weight loss is not a great idea:
- Most people's experience with fast weight loss, is ONLY based on excessive exercise and being in a calorie deficit - just eating 'whatever'. These 'whatever' foods can wreak havoc on hormones.
- The approach is not based in nutrient dense WHOLE f…
Planning to see a nutritionist about your weight? WAIT!
Why "diets" don't work long term.
I get it, you might be feeling dread about another "diet" (the 'delish' approach is not a "diet" in the conventional sense).

The 3 diet formulas "they" insist you follow, that are doomed to fail.

Your body weight set point refers to a specifc level of body fat that your body automatically works to maintain regardless of the quantity of calories you consume or 'try' to burn off via exercise.
This set point is why it's hard to lose weight. It's because the rest of your body's physiological functions are set to match that weight. When you lose weight, your whole body has to adjust and it takes time and consistent effort to change your body's homeostasis.
