Diets Don’t Work (Unless You Fix These 7 Things) | EP 495
Why do 95% of diets fail? Because they’re built on faulty assumptions and short-term tactics that ignore the real reasons we struggle with food. In this episode, Matty exposes the 7 most common reasons diets fall apart — and what needs to change if you want sustainable results.
On this episode we covered:
- Why relying on willpower and restriction always backfires eventually
- The hidden role of your nervous system in sabotaging your best intentions
- How social dynamics and peer pressure keep you stuck in unhealthy patterns
- The overlooked health factors that diets almost never address
- What to focus on instead of just “eating better”
