Summary

If you want to lose weight and get healthy, you just might be doing it wrong.

See, most of us think it’s just about eating less and moving more, right? But the truth is, most diets fail, and almost nobody talks about why.

That’s why In this episode, I sat down with IFBB Pro Jeff Later to break down the dark side of dieting - the stuff no one warns you about.

Jeff gets real about what happens after you lose weight and why your metabolism slows down when you diet, making it harder to keep the weight off.

He explains how extreme calorie cutting can cause long-term damage to your body and hormones and why most people gain back more weight than they lost.

Even worse, that weight is harder to lose the second time around, the social and emotional side of weight loss.

We dive deep into why many people lose important relationships after getting fit and how to reduce such tensions at home

Jeff reveals why crash diets, weight loss drugs like semaglutide, and gastric bypass don’t teach real habits and why people are set up to fail from the start.

But most importantly, we teach you how to break free from the weight loss cycle for good.

So If you’re sick of feeling stuck, and watching the weight come back every time, this episode is for you. Join us today to learn how to fix your metabolism, shift your identity, and create a lifestyle that actually lasts without losing important relationships.
