rHave you been a victim of “Restriction Rebound?”
It comes from a big lie.
A lie you can go read all over social media and in pretty much any fitness magazine you pick up.
It goes like this…
“You can’t eat junk food and get in shape. You need to EAT CLEAN! Just start eating chicken and broccoli if you want to see results.”
Or it might be “Just go KETO and cut out ALL carbs.”
Or maybe it’s “Add a second workout every day and do an hour of extra cardio”
I could honestly go all day with these.
Just insert whatever fad diet is popular….
You’ll notice they all have one big thing in common. They make you cut something out. And it’s usually something you love.
One reason why is because it’s easier. It’s easier to say “cut out all carbs” than it is to take the time to teach you what your body needs.
Another reason is it keeps you coming back for more. There’s a reason we all know the term fad diet.
My guess is at some point you’ve tried some form of restriction like this and it didn’t work out.
I been duped by this myself…I repeated this mistake over and over for almost a decade restricting foods I knew I couldn’t live without long term before i finally saw the results I wanted.
Why is restriction so dangerous?
When you restrict too much, your body goes into survival mode.
Your metabolism slows down. You get tired, cranky and hangry 🤬
Your cravings SKYROCKET 🚀
This is bad but it gets worse.
What happens psychologically is what creates the BIG PROBLEM.
Just like our friends from the candy study, when you tell yourself you can’t have your favorite foods… a little voice in your head says “oh heck no!”
Deep inside you know you might be able to do this for a few weeks but you can’t keep it up forever.
All you can think about is the foods you’ll eat when the diet is “over.”
If you’re like me, that means daydreaming of ice cream 🍦, chips and guacamole🥑, burritos 🌯 and pizza 🍕
That restriction starts to drive you crazy.
Then next thing you know…you need to binge.
It’s only one day. No big deal.
What’s happening is what I call ‘Restriction Rebound’.
Your mind and body enter rebellion mode. You essentially force yourself to gorge down the foods you miss and love.
This restriction rebound is so dangerous because it not only leads to gaining even more fat back, but it also can lead to but long-lasting metabolic damage.
Even if you do manage to discipline yourself and “work hard” to stick to an extreme diet and exercise program…
… you’ll feel absolutely miserable in the process.
The truth is you can get fit AND enjoy your favorite foods at the same time.
When you RESET your approach you can still eat all the foods you love and see the results you’ve always wanted.
I’ve seen results from tens of thousands of clients over the years who have seen amazing results without restriction.
These are people just like you…
Moms, women in their 50s going through menopause, chronic dieters and exercisers who just don’t see results no matter how hard they work.
You need to press the RESET BUTTON. It’s a 3 step process that takes you through 6 weeks and shows you how to avoid restriction rebound and finally beat that crash dieting cycle.
