About this episode

Liz and Becca discuss their experiences with various fad diets and why they failed, offering insights into sustainable health practices.

Liz and Becca confess every fad diet they tried before becoming functional health practitioners — Atkins, SlimFast, Weight Watchers, Hydroxycut, the Beyoncé Cleanse, Shakeology, It Works wraps, the 17 Day Diet, and more. Two former "fat girls" break down why every quick fix failed, why crash diets cause weight rebound, and what actually works for sustainable fat loss, hormone balance, and metabolic flexibility. If you've yo-yo dieted, chugged apple cider vinegar, or wasted thousands on supplements that didn't work — this episode is for you. *** CONNECT: 🏆 Work With Us: Revive & Thrive Program 🔗 Connect With Liz: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🔗 Connect With Becca: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube 🇺🇸 Private Community: FitMom Society ▶️ Have Questions?
