Because your biology, psychology, and capitalism are all in on it.

You followed the rules. You counted the macros. You suffered through sad salads. And still — the weight came back (plus extra). So… is it you? 👀 Or is the whole diet thing kinda rigged?

In this ep, we’re getting into the real reasons most diets fail. From your hormones fighting you, to your brain being straight-up rebellious, to billion-dollar industries gaslighting you into guilt — we’re breaking down the science behind the cycle, and how to break out of it for good.
