Raise your hand if you've ever said, "I'll start again Monday."
Monday morning motivation. Clean slate Sunday meal prep. Weighing food on a scale like you're running a chemistry lab. Counting every calorie like your worth depends on it.
Have you ever convinced yourself that a 500-calorie medically supervised liquid diet for 30 days was finally going to be the answer to getting yourself under control? (spoiler: it wasn't). I literally begged my doctor to extend the torture I was inflicting on my body another month because surely THAT would be the magic that finally had me lose all the weight. The desperation was real, y'all.
Yes, they let me stay on that medically supervised liquid diet for 60 days. No, it was not permanent weight loss. (And don't get me started on how much money those packs of powder cost that I mixed with water and ice in my blender trying to make them taste good).
Been there. Done that. Bought the matching workout outfit and motivational water bottle. Weighed lettuce like my life depended on it.
Fast forward many years, painful lessons later, and tens of thousands of dollars spent looking for the "cure", I began viewing my body as a partner I could trust instead of this saboteur I had to fight every single day.
Here's what years in the diet trenches showed me: all that research, those personal experiments, the spectacular failures, and quiet victories revealed what actually works (and what's just expensive powder in fancy packaging and empty promises).
