Hi guys, happy Friday. Welcome back. Today I'm going to do an episode that I can't believe I haven't

already done. I could ask this question literally every single week, multiple times a week on

Instagram, and I think because I've talked about it so much on there, I thought I had done a

podcast on it. And it's so simple. I think I just overthink that so many people have the question.

But it's essentially how long should I diet or how long can I diet?

So that's what we're going to talk about today.

I'm hoping to keep this short and sweet like usual, very digestible, but clear up any confusion and hopefully

help you like to navigate what your dieting phase or phases could look like because depending

on the person, it could be that you need multiple like dieting phasesing phases. So, we're going to jump right in.

it just depends, but it really does just depend. Because based on the person, it's going to

come down to the biggest determining factor, which is going to be how much weight the person

has to lose. And we'll talk about like both camps of that, whether it's

somebody who has like a little bit like five to 10 pounds or somebody who has a little more like

20 to 30 pounds. And then we'll talk about consistency and adherence. So in my opinion, your goals,

so like how much weight you have to lose and your consistency

will be the two biggest determining factors in how long you can diet. So if we are talking

about someone who has five to ten pounds to lose, and we're saying on average you might lose around a pound a week

obviously we know that's on average there might be some weeks that you don't lose any some weeks

you might gain a little and then some weeks you might have like a big loss or it might be a tiny

loss so again we're talking on average, but just saying roughly,
