You may have been victim to a diet, or two, or three.... and why wouldn't you? The diet business, which is a multi-billion-dollar industry, lives in our bookshelves, our phones, computers, and amongst our loved ones; however, this industry thrives off of the "failure" of its clients.
Diets promise attractive, quick results but often include a level of deprivation that is far from sustainable, leading to an astounding statistic that the industry doesn't want you to know: 95% of them fail.
One of the biggest factors that contribute to binge eating and/or overeating is this vicious dieting cycle. The deprivation put forth by various diets increases one's food cravings and intensifies the morality we have around food choices. This increases one's likelihood of overeating/binging, negative self-image, and probability of entering what seems like this never-ending cycle.
