Do 95% of diets really fail?

The claim that “95% of diets fail” is everywhere — but is it actually true?

In this episode of the All or Something Podcast, we break down where the 95% statistic comes from, why it’s often misunderstood, and what modern research really says about long-term weight loss success.

While long-term weight loss outcomes can be challenging, the idea that diets universally “fail” is an oversimplification based largely on outdated research. 

We explore how weight loss "success" is defined in studies, why weight regain is common, and what this means for people trying to make sustainable changes without shame, fear, or diet culture myths.

If you’ve ever felt like weight loss “never works,” this conversation will help you understand the science more clearly — and more compassionately.

In this episode, we discuss:

- Where the “95% of diets fail” claim originated
- Why long-term weight loss success rates are often misrepresented
- What newer research tells us about weight regain
- Why framing matters when talking about weight loss and health

This episode is for anyone confused or frustrated by conflicting weight loss advice, and for those who want a more nuanced, research-informed conversation.

In this episode, I (Ben) share my background and how I ended up working in the fitness industry, from becoming a personal trainer to finding my voice online.
We talk about why I’m passionate about discussing mental health, outwardly supporting women (without excluding men lol), why I don’t believe fat loss is easy or achievable in the same way for everyone, and why I think large parts of the fitness industry feel unwelcoming, exclusionary, and often harmful.
I also open up about:
What I strongly disagree with in the fitness industry
Things I have said that have annoyed people online, and why I think they are often wrong about me
My own experiences with mental health, and why I’m so outspoken about mental health issues in fitness
This episode is about what I stand for, who this podcast is for, and why I believe fitness needs to do better — especially for people who feel like they don’t “fit” the typical mould.
If you’ve ever felt confused, blamed, or pushed aside by fitness culture, this episode is for you, and is the final part of the series where you get to know us as your hosts, before we move onto specific health, fitness and nutrition topics.

In this episode, Sohee sits down with Ben for an honest, wide-ranging conversation about her fitness journey, career evolution, and the health and wellness opinions that have sparked both support and backlash online.
From quitting bodybuilding to navigating body dysmorphia, perfectionism, and all-or-nothing thinking, Sohee shares the experiences that shaped her current philosophy around food, fitness, and personal responsibility. The conversation also tackles misunderstood topics like food habituation, “junk food,” obesity discourse, and why being comfortable in the grey area of health matters more than rigid rules.
They also get personal—discussing criticism, online outrage, role modeling for a future daughter, and what it actually means to pursue health without obsession.
This episode is for anyone who’s felt burned by diet culture, struggled with extremes in fitness, or wants a more sustainable, evidence-based approach to health and wellness.

In this episode of the All or Something Podcast, we talk openly about the worst period of my life — living with Crohn’s disease. 
This is part of an introductory series where you get to meet both of your cohosts before we get into fitness and nutrition topics and have guests on.
Although I have talked about this numerous times before, this is easily the deepest and most emotional I have ever had publicly about the disease. Discussing the diagnosis, the pain, the exhaustion, and the mental toll of chronic illness. We also talk about how it impacts both of our lives in the present day.
This is a raw, emotional conversation about chronic illness, and what it’s really like to live with Crohn’s disease — the parts that are rarely spoken about.
If you’re living with Crohn’s, IBD, or supporting someone with chronic illness, this episode is for you.
