"Confession time: I used to love tracking my food in an app on my phone. I’d quickly add what I ate and drank, and would sport a oh-so-very-smug grin on my face when I “hit my numbers” for the day. There’s something deeply satisfying about reducing something as messy as eating to a tidy number. Which is exactly why it’s worth sitting with the question properly: if calorie counting is so logical, why does it so reliably stop working for so many women, myself included, at some point?

The short answer is that calories are real and they do matter, but the “calories in, calories out” model we were sold is an over-simplified version of a much more nuanced, much more interesting system.

Let’s get nerdy about why."

COMPASSION. The world needs more of it, and so do you!
Listen to this:
"The women who received the self-compassion prompt ate significantly less afterwards than those who didn’t, particularly among women who normally felt the most guilt around eating. Being kind to themselves in the moment, rather than critical, short-circuited the very spiral the boundary model predicts."

Most diets aim to decrease the number on the scale within a certain time, but that's a very flawed model. You can limit your intake till you're lightheaded and queezy, but all you will lose is the important protein and water that your body needs to function. Diets do far more than "end" when they're over!

Here's a piece of an article Isabelle wrote to explain this:
"...“why do I keep regaining the weight I lost?” And it deserves its own honest answer, because the reasons have far more to do with biology and strategy than with willpower.

It’s also a question that sits right on the edge of mindset, without needing to turn into a full therapy session to answer properly. There’s real, well-documented behavioural research on exactly why regain happens, how one small slip tends to spiral into a much bigger one, and what actually stops that spiral. None of it requires digging into childhood or deep psychology. It just requires understanding how restriction, rules and self-judgement interact, because once you see the mechanism clearly, a lot of the shame around regaining weight starts to lift."

You are not lacking anything and your body is doing what it was designed to do. Here's why: https://thewholeyou.co/why-do-i-keep-regaining/

What catches your eye from this pie chart? Some of it may be familiar, but some might be foreign. In her blog, Isabelle breaks down the terms and makes sense of the "mess" inside.

Here are a few priceless excerpts of her wisdom:
"How many times have you heard somebody wonder, as if a “broken metabolism” is a confirmed diagnosis rather than a guess? Or even asked yourself? And I totally get why it feels that way: you’re doing roughly what you’ve always done, and the results have changed. Something must be wrong, surely, right?"

"The lead actor here is muscle. Muscle is the single biggest driver of that basal number. The more metabolically active tissue (= muscle) you carry, the more energy your body needs at rest. This is the thread that runs through almost everything below."

These and many more gems appear to guide you as you read.
