Diets Fail but Skills Last: 4 Questions That Make Fat Loss Easy | Ep. 37

Erin Jowett

Most people think weight loss comes down to willpower or cutting out entire food groups — but the truth is, it’s about learning a skill. In this episode of Backyard Health, Erin breaks down the exact framework for building balanced meals that keep hunger, cravings, and hormones in check.

You’ll learn:

  • Why cravings and “being good all day, then blowing it at night” have less to do with discipline and more to do with physiology.

  • The 4-part meal framework (veggies, protein, fats, carbs) that makes fat loss easier and more sustainable.

  • How hunger hormones and neurotransmitters influence your appetite — and the nutrients that help balance them.

  • Practical questions you can ask yourself at every meal to shift from dieting to skill-building.

If you’re ready to stop obsessing over food rules and finally feel in control of your meals, this episode will give you the clarity and confidence you need.
