Fad Diets and Eating Disorders Fad diets are only temporary solutions to weight loss. They may adversely affect your body's metabolism such that your body will learn to maintain its weight despite your calorie restriction. Stopping a fad diet often leads to ultimate weight gain, not weight loss. Worse, switching from one fad diet to another often leads to eating disorders, such as food addiction, anorexia and bulimia. Your Psychological Food Relationship and Your Health Psychological food relationship is related to how you think about food and its effect on your weight and body image. Unhealthy psychological food relationship, due to negative emotions or distorted thinking, often results in food addiction or an eating disorder. To improve your psychological relationship with food, you must identify the trigger and deal with it head-on. To ignore it only perpetuates the unhealthy eating behavior.
