The Reality of Dieting

“I was 140 pounds when I started dieting. Now, five diets later I’m 225 pounds. I only wish I could get back to the 140 pounds where I started. I don’t feel like myself anymore.” 

Julie’s struggle is all too common. Most dieters fail to keep off the weight they lose, regaining 80 percent of the weight they lose within 5 years, and some gain even more. The problem is that losing weight is the easy part. Keeping it off is the hard part because diets aren’t sustainable. They are designed to be temporary. You go on them and then you go off them, resulting in short-term success but no long-term success.

Yes, there are lots of places you can turn to help you lose weight, but nobody is helping you maintain it. At Sweet Life Wellness, we build sustainability into our programs from day one.

We’ve already talked about how diets are making things worse.  Add to it the twin epidemics of obesity and diabetes that are ravaging our communities, and it’s clear something needs to change. The number of Americans diagnosed with diabetes grew from 1.6 million in 1958 to 23.4 million in 2015. That’s an astronomical increase of 1,463 percent in just 57 years!

Why is this happening? The U.S. food industry made an unprecedented $8.33 trillion in sales in 2023, churns out more and more cheap, super-sized processed food products filled with salt, sugar, and saturated fat, prioritizing their profits over our health. This leads to widespread illness, forcing people to rely on doctors and medications.
