90% of Dieters Re-Gain. Who is to Blame?

Diet companies base all their advertising on the “winners” — those who have had a dramatic loss of weight. They like to feature celebrities as winners. They have fans and known personalities…and well-known weight problems.

As paid spokesperson’s for meal replacement/low calorie diets, they are highly-compensated not only to take the weight off, but to keep it off

With the “best diets in the world,” with the best diet professionals for regular guidance, with trainers ready to assist at the drop of a hat…and their celebrity credibility at stake…why can’t celebrity endorsers keep the weight off? 

Remember Kirstie Allie, Sarah Ferguson. How about Marie Osmond and Oprah? How many times have we seen them cycle and recycle their weight?

There is nothing wrong with those celebrities. They are wonderful, entertaining individuals. But, as endorsers, shouldn’t they be held to a higher standard, when it comes to weight re-gain?

With all the money in the world to help them,
in the end, celebrity diet endorsers are just like you. 
They fail to keep the weight off.

So, if repeated celebrity failures ARE the higher standard, what about you? 

With none of the celebrity advantages and money, what are your chances to keep the weight off? 

Or…

…Are we asking the wrong question?

Could it be that the reason the celebrities AND you can’t keep the weight off is BECAUSE you all dieted? 

Could it be that…
WEIGHT RE-GAIN IS CAUSED BY DIETING?

The alternative is to blame the celebrities. To blame you. To blame the 90+% who fail to keep the weight off. That is exactly what we all have been doing…blaming everyone BUT the diet.

  • If 90% of new Toyotas quit working after one year, would you lay the blame on the car owners, or the manufacturer?
  • If an NFL quarterback kept missing 90% of his passes, year after year, would you still cheer for him?
  • If 90% of new houses had their roofs cave-in their first year, you wouldn’t blame the owners, would you? Wouldn’t you suspect that the builder or the architect, or both, are inept?

If 90% of the kids in your daughter’s school failed basic reading by 3rd grade, would you scold your child?

These are not rhetorical questions. The failure rate of all low calorie diets, measured one year out, is 90%. Or worse. You really want to keep blaming the dieters? 

Since all the big commercial diets have the same re-gain problem, and they all share the same methods (cut 800-1500 calories out of your daily intake), why can’t anyone say there is something inherently wrong with their shared design — too few calories a day? 

Either low calorie diets cause weight re-gain, or ALL customers are inherently bad at dieting. 

Whom do you blame?
