À propos de ce contenu audio

 Let’s be honest: how many times have you stood on the scales, promised yourself "this time it'll stick," only to feel like a failure a few weeks later? It’s time to stop the self-flagellation. This isn't about a lack of willpower or being "weak"—it’s about a multi-billion pound industry that relies on you coming back, and a biological system that thinks it’s saving your life every time you cut calories. We’re diving deep into the "ancient wiring" of the human body and why your brain goes into overdrive to protect your fat stores. It’s time to trade in the restrictive rules for actual skills and understand the difference between losing weight and the lifelong challenge of keeping it off. You aren't broken; you’ve just been using the wrong tools. KEY TAKEAWAYS The Business of Failure: The diet industry thrives on repeat customers, meaning its commercial success depends on the same people returning after regaining weight. Biological Protection: Your body views weight loss as a threat to survival and triggers hormones to increase hunger while slowing your metabolism to conserve energy. The All-or-Nothing Trap: Rigid dieting rules create a psychological "slip" where one mistake leads to total abandonment and feelings of shame. Emotional Eating Ignored: Most diets tell you what to eat but fail to address why we eat, ignoring the need for comfort, reward, or stress relief. Maintenance is a Different Skill: Losing weight is one chapter, but keeping it off requires lifelong psychological skills and awareness rather than temporary restriction. QUOTES "We do not fail diets. Diets fail people." "The real devil in this war of the pounds... is your very own biology." "Your body doesn't know you're trying to get into a smaller dress; it’s operating on ancient wiring." "Dieting sets up a battle between you and your own biology—and biology usually wins." "You are not broken. You weren't weak. You weren't failing. You were using tools that were never designed for lifelong support." 🔗 Follow & Connect with KIO Method 🌐 Website: ⁠⁠https://www.kiomethod.com 📺⁠⁠ YouTube: ⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@kiomethod 📸⁠⁠ Instagram: ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/kiomethod 🎵⁠⁠ TikTok: ⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@kiomethod 📘⁠⁠ Facebook: ⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/kiomethod 💼⁠⁠ LinkedIn: ⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/company/kiomethod⁠⁠ HOST BIO Mel Harris is a weight loss mentor, podcast host, and founder of KIO Method Ltd, specialising in long-term weight loss maintenance after bariatric surgery and weight loss injections.
