11 Questions You Keep Asking Yourself About Losing Weight
And the answers you were never given.
You've tried eating healthier.
You've tried eating less.
You've tried moving more.
And when it doesn't work the way it was supposed to, the question turns inward.
What's wrong with me?
Eleven days. One question a day. One small thing to do with it.
Starts the day you buy.

You've been solving these by trying harder.
Years of it. More discipline, more rules, more careful.
Here's the possibility nobody puts in front of you:
What if you've been given the wrong explanations?
Not incomplete ones. Wrong ones. The kind that send a competent woman after the wrong variable for a decade and then let her conclude the failure was hers.
Every one of these eleven questions has a bad premise buried in it. Once you can see the premise, the question stops being frightening and starts being answerable.
That's what these eleven days are for.
11 questions. 11 answers. One a day.
- “I'm eating healthy. Why isn't it working?”
- “But I eat less than she does.”
- “She's losing it faster than me.”
- “Is my metabolism broken?”
- “Is bread the problem?”
- “Do I have to give up my life for this?”
- “Do I need to move more?”
- “What is the scale actually telling me?”
- “I dieted for a month and nothing happened.”
- “How long is this going to take?”
- “Why did it stop working?”
This is not a diet, a meal plan, or a list of foods you're allowed.
It's a different understanding of what has been happening to you.

How it works
STEP 1
One question a day, for eleven days.
It arrives in your inbox. Five minutes to read. You don't have to organize anything, download anything, or log in anywhere.
STEP 2
One small thing to do with it.
Every email ends with something tiny and specific. Name one food. Cross out a deadline. Say yes to one dinner. Nothing to weigh, nothing to count, nothing to prepare on a Sunday.
STEP 3
On day eleven, two things.
A set of eleven cards you can print and keep, one line for each question, for the Thursday when you need it.
And an open reply. Tell me which question you're still carrying, and I'll answer you myself. I read every one.
Hi, I'm Mitra.
I'm a psychologist. Before that I was an engineer, which is a strange combination until you spend a few years watching women try to solve an emotional problem with arithmetic, and an arithmetic problem with willpower.
I've spent years helping women lose weight without turning food into a second job.
And I keep noticing the same thing.
Women aren't short on information. They're drowning in it.
Eat less. Eat clean. Cut carbs. Don't eat after seven. Burn more. Be more disciplined. No sugar. Count this. Measure that.
Every instruction contradicts the last one, and when none of it produces what was promised, the conclusion is always the same: it must be me.
It isn't a discipline problem. Most women have never been shown how the pieces actually fit together, because nobody selling them anything had a reason to.
So: eleven of the questions I hear most, answered straight, in the order that makes them make sense.
You don't need another set of rules.
You don't need another list of good foods and bad foods.
You need to know what's actually going on.
Eleven days. The questions you've been asking, answered straight.
Starts the day you buy. Day one arrives within the hour.

Before you start.
The eleven days will change how you understand what's been happening. They won't touch why you're standing at the counter at nine at night when you weren't hungry at seven.
That's the other half, and it's ahead of you. We'll get there.
