In this episode of the Fit Dad Club podcast, Jason Barrett discusses the topic of fad diets. He highlights the problem with fad diets and how they constantly shift the focus onto something being bad for you. Jason emphasizes the importance of understanding the principle of a calorie deficit for fat loss and explains why fad diets don't work in the long term. He also explores different types of fad diets and recommends flexible dieting as a sustainable approach. Jason concludes by encouraging listeners to have a plan for post-diet and to seek education and understanding about food choices.
Fad diets constantly shift the focus onto something being bad for you, but they don't address the complex nature of how we live in today's society.
The principle of fat loss is a calorie deficit, regardless of the method or diet you choose.
Fad diets may work in the short term due to initial motivation and quick results, but they often become unsustainable.
Flexible dieting, which involves tracking macronutrients and understanding food choices, can be a more sustainable approach to fat loss.
Having a plan for post-diet is crucial to maintain weight loss and make sustainable lifestyle changes.
