In this episode of How to Eat Cake on a Diet, Jody dives into one of the biggest reasons weight loss feels impossible: living in extremes. On one end, you have rigid diets like keto that promise quick results but collapse under the pressure of real life. On the other, you have the “wing it” approach — no rules, no tracking — which quickly spirals into chaos, second-guessing, and stalled progress.

Jody shares her personal story of trying keto, the psychology behind why strict rules backfire, and the hidden trap of “too much freedom.” Then, she reveals the middle ground that actually works: structure without strictness. You’ll learn how to build daily non-negotiables—like hitting a calorie budget, prioritizing protein and fiber, and getting your steps in—that act like bumpers in bowling: guiding you without controlling you.

By the end of the episode, you’ll see how weight loss doesn’t have to mean living in extremes. With simple, repeatable guardrails, you can enjoy pizza night, dessert, and holidays while still making steady progress toward your goals. This is where peace, freedom, and lasting results are found.
