Stop the cycle and fix the problem by first understanding that you are changing your eating habits for life and not developing a quick start diet. This is not a 'diet ". You are learning how to put your body into a burning mode as opposed to a starvation mode. When your body feels deprived and starved your metabolism slows considerably and weight loss is close to impossible. This decreases your motivation and your positive feedback. You end up going back to eating the way you did before the 'diet' and your body will put on more weight than you had before the diet.https:
