A lot of people hear about all the different diets and try them for a few weeks, few days, or few months. People feel overwhelmed by all the different dieting strategies. Sometimes they don’t see results fast enough or the diet is just not sustainable after they do see results.

To many of my personal training clients I never tell them not do to a diet (within reason). But I always stress to them to try it for a few weeks and stay very consistent. During that time make sure you take down notes of what worked, didn’t work, felt hard, felt easy, and when did you start to crave food or have a binge eating night/weekend. If it doesn’t work or it is not a diet strategy you can maintain for your new normal. Try another diet and continue with the same note taking method.

Yes, this is going to take time and will be a longer process. You will have successful weeks and hard weeks. But after months of doing this process you will be able to now combine different parts of different diets. Or at least commit to the diet you tried and worked 80% of the week/month.

I have clients who have been successful after doing this method and piecing together fasting, carb cycling, keto, point systems, ect.
