In Why Weight Loss Fails, Kunal Kapoor combines behavioral science, nutrition research, psychology, and real-world stories to reveal why diets rarely produce lasting results—and what actually does.
This isn't another meal plan or list of forbidden foods. Instead, you'll discover:
• Why willpower is an unreliable strategy
• How metabolism, hunger hormones, and biology affect weight
• The hidden role of identity and self-image
• Why emotional eating isn't a lack of discipline
• How your environment silently controls your choices
• The science of sustainable habits and long-term maintenance
• Why self-compassion is more effective than self-criticism
Honest, evidence-based, and deeply human, Why Weight Loss Fails offers a new framework for understanding food, behavior, and lasting transformation.
If you've ever lost weight only to gain it back, this book will show you why—and how to finally break the cycle.
