This is Primal Potential and I am your host, Elizabeth Benton.

Primal Potential is about you.

Your ability to change is not defined by yesterday and doesn't need to wait until tomorrow.

Your transformation is now.

Let's get started.

Hello everybody and welcome back to the Primal Potential podcast.

I am Elizabeth Benton.

Thank you so much for being here.

I know we don't talk a lot about weight loss on the show, even though that's a big part

of my past.

There are a lot of episodes of this podcast that do go into hormones and fat loss strategy

and all of that kind of stuff.

Today I want to take a little bit of a different approach because this is a time of year when

people are thinking about losing weight, whether we're talking about 5 vanity pounds or

we're talking about serious transformations.

I want to talk about why diets don't work.

Less so from the hormone biochemical standpoint, we'll touch on that a little bit, but really

more importantly, on how and why they don't get to the solution that we really need.

I'm passionate about this because quite frankly, I wasted a ton of time jumping from one

diet to the next.

I have done it all.

I've done the low calorie stuff.
