Ever wonder why after being on a diet for a short period of time you become preoccupied with food? You’re not alone. In this episode I discuss The 1950 Minnesota Starvation Experiment, by Keys et al. I used to think I lacked the illusive “willpower” until I came to understand the normal (but odd) phenomena that happen to regular people when they restrict their diets.

In this episode I discuss:

• Keys et al (1950) Minnesota Starvation Experiment.

• Implications for weight loss

• Implications for weight maintenance

• Illusive “will power”

• Why you’re obsessed with food

• Considerations for success
