In this episode, I set the container for the next ten stories.
Ten women between 40 and 60.
✔️ Multiple rounds of weight regain.
✔️ No eating disorders.
✔️ No dramatic pathology.
✔️ No extreme cases.
Just the repeating pattern.
✔️They have all dieted.
✔️ They understand healthy eating.
✔️They have strong intentions.
❌ The weight still comes back.
This series does not focus on food plans or motivation. It examines the structure underneath repeated weight regain using systems thinking.
Because weight regain is rarely a simple food problem. It is a system being run.
👀 What This Series Will Examine
Each story will be explored through:
✔️ Weight and dieting history across decades
✔️ Family food culture and early food rules
✔️The Eight Types of Eating
✔️Feedback loops created by restriction
✔️Relief eating as a functional response
✔️The role of shame in blocking investigation
You will hear how simple solutions applied to complex systems create unintended consequences:
Restriction ➙ Compensation ➙ Relief ➙ Shame ➙ Restart.
This loop is not random. It is structural.
Why This Matters
When a complex problem is treated as simple, weight regain becomes predictable.
✔️ Dieting adjusts food.
✔️ It does not dismantle the eating system.
✔️ Even medication may suppress appetite, but the structure underneath remains.
This series goes further back than most assessments ever do. Because you cannot redesign a system you haven’t mapped.
Who This Is For ❤️
✔️ Women in midlife who are tired of restarting
✔️ Practitioners working with repeated weight regain
✔️ Anyone ready to examine structure instead of symptoms
