🎙️ The Human Face of the Diet Hope and Abandonment Cycle
Every time a new diet promises hope, women everywhere tell themselves this time will be different. But it rarely is. In this episode of Before Dieting, Bronwyn Fletcher puts a human face on the diet hope and abandonment cycle by sharing Francine’s raw, everyday story.
From the optimism of day one, to the crushing self-talk of ‘failure,’ and the deeper realisation that food meant love and belonging, Francine’s experience reveals the invisible systems that keep women trapped in the weight regain.
You’ll hear:
- Why diets recycle the same weight, no matter how ‘new’ they seem.
- How food stories from childhood shape eating patterns for life.
- The hard question Francine had to ask herself: what food legacy was she passing on to her children?
- Why understanding your food story is the first step out of the cycle.
If you’ve ever wondered why your weight struggles never end, this episode will give you an honest, shame-free perspective on food stories, and two powerful questions to start uncovering your own.
👉 Listen now and see what’s been hiding beneath the surface of your weight story.
