Why do so many diets fail? Why do women experience weight regain after loss? This complicated topic can be attacked from many angles, and in today’s episode we look at the behaviours that change a woman’s likelihood of having long term sustainable weight maintenance after an active phase of weight loss. There are daily habits and behaviours that affect what happens after a woman loses weight that have a significant impact on her ability to maintain it – and you’d be surprised how little of these behaviours have to do with food.
In this solo episode I talk about a research study that was conducted on women and what happens in the 12 months after an exercise program to illustrate how complex weight maintenance actually is. If you’ve ever felt like you’re on a continuous rollercoaster of weight gain and loss, this episode sheds some light on the behaviours that might be standing in your way.
