Yo-Yo Yvette

You're either "on track" or completely off.

One small slip can turn into a full spiral.

This pattern is driven by extremes, not lack of effort.

πŸ‘‰ This cycle isn't who you are β€” it's something you've been caught in.

Perpetual dieter. Loses weight, gains it back plus more, starts next diet.

You Might Be Yo-Yo Yvette If…

Perpetual dieter. Loses weight, gains it back plus more, starts next diet.

What This Looks Like

  • Extensive diet history
  • Weight fluctuates dramatically
  • Each new diet starts with euphoria
  • Falling off leads to shame spiral
  • Knows more about nutrition than most dietitians
  • Identity organized around being 'on' or 'off' a diet

What's Actually Driving This

Root: Conditional love/perfection

You're Not Alone

This pattern is more common than you think. Nothing is wrong with you. Your eating is trying to tell you something β€” and understanding that message is the first step toward real change.
