Why most women gain their weight back after losing it

I don’t know about you, but I’ve certainly been there.  You put in the effort, you work hard, you change the food you eat, and you lose weight.  The feelings of euphoria and success can go away so fast when you start gaining it back, can’t they?

It’s a shame that there are so many “lose weight fast” plans out there.  The truth is, the faster you lose weight, the higher the probability that it will definitely come back.  Think about it: if you cut out carbohydrates and lose a bunch of weight… chances are, you can’t live without carbs for the rest of your life… so you gain it back.

I know that’s what happened with me.  I’ve lost weight using so many of the popular methods… and inevitably, it’s always come back.  And each time it came back, it brought more weight along!

The reason we girls gain our weight back is because of the “diet” mentality.  We think, “Oh, I don’t want to live without these foods forever, or exercise this way forever, but I can do it for a few months.”  So we lose weight… and then once we revert back to old habits, of COURSE the weight comes back.

The key is to change the habits - how we eat, and how we move.  When we change those habits, we’ll keep weight off long-term.
