How To Overcome Weight Regain Back on Track: Achieving Healthy Weight Loss
-
- Medicine
Have you ever lost weight after trying, only to experience weight regain later? According to www.medicalnewstoday.com, as many as 80% of those who have lost weight through diet and exercise regain all of the weight they originally lost.
In this episode, I discuss how to overcome weight regain, including my success and subsequent weight regain after bariatric surgery. Factors such as medication side effects and mood disorders can affect weight regain despite initial success from programs I have acquired. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of self-assessment readiness before starting a lifestyle intervention.
It is crucial to prioritize health through healthy practices and have support systems for accountability. Taking steps towards sustainable lifestyle changes involves regular exercise, balanced nutrition, and resilience in facing challenges. Furthermore, through gradual changes rather than overwhelming ones, long-term healthy weight loss goals can be achieved by incorporating these practices.
Learn from real experiences and expert advice on navigating challenges, setting realistic goals, and cultivating a healthy lifestyle. Listen now!
