RYW 103: Why You Keep Regaining Weight and How to Change It

Welcome back to ReWire Your Weight, the podcast for busy professionals and high achievers who are ready to silence the food noise, break free from self-sabotage, and finally lose weight—without resorting to restrictive diets, grueling willpower, or medications. In this episode, host Rachel Foy dives deep into one of the most frustrating cycles in weight loss: losing weight only to watch it slowly come back on.

Rachel reassures listeners that this isn’t a personal failing or a lack of discipline, it’s actually a “brain issue,” not a “you issue.” She unpacks why willpower alone isn’t enough, revealing how our brains crave familiarity and safety, often dragging us back to old patterns of control, restriction, and rebellion. Rachel explains the psychology behind your eating habits, why sabotage happens and what it really takes to break the cycle for good.

This episode is packed with insights on how to rewire your thoughts, shift your identity around food and create lasting change so you can achieve sustainable weight loss and finally become a “normal eater.” If you’re tired of starting over every Monday and want to make healthy habits stick, this is the episode for you. Tune in and discover how brain-based weight loss can be the missing piece you’ve been searching for!
