How does weight loss work?

Weight loss works based on “calories in, calories out”, i.e., you need to be burning more calories than you take in through your daily food intake. The key to managing your weight successfully is in ensuring that the calories that you consume do not exceed the calories that you use. There are also other factors to consider such as your age, body type and metabolism, on top of lifestyle factors such as your daily habits that all come into play into weight gain or loss.

What is the best weight loss treatment?

There are plenty of weight loss treatments available, but TCM slimming is one of the safest and best ways to lose weight. Our Divine Slim TM weight loss program encourages steady weight loss for effective and sustainable weight management. As compared to fad diets (diets that eliminate 1 or more food groups) that leave you feeling hungry and lethargic, or having to rely on machines to see results, our methods are backed by sound TCM principles that focus on facilitating your weight loss goals as well as cater to your overall health needs.

How does TCM help me lose weight?

Following the perspective that excessive weight gain is a symptom of a greater underlying health problem that needs to be addressed, TCM believes that excessive weight gain is due to a Qi deficiency in the spleen, resulting in a slow metabolism, water retention and weight gain. Using Guasha, a form of treatment used in the practice of TCM, special apparatus is used to attain preventive or therapeutic slimming effects. Not only does the treatment regulate blood circulation and detoxify the body, but it also improves your metabolism and digestion for slimming effects. No need for painful surgery, unnecessary machines or intensive diets!

Why should I choose TCM slimming over other weight loss methods?

TCM slimming focuses on returning your body to a balanced, healthy state – so, you can look forward to not only looking good but also feeling good about yourself! Although our weight loss program will help you achieve results, it is important to stay committed to investing in your overall health by paying close attention to your diet and exercise, both during the treatment and post-treatment.

Is the Number on the Scale A Good Indicator of Weight Loss?

Is the Number on the Scale A Good Indicator of Weight Loss?

When you’ve committed to a healthy diet on top of exercising regularly, you’d find yourself expecting a significant drop in your weight only to realise that your weigh has been around the same range for months.

Losing weight effectively requires a negative calorie balance by consuming fewer calories than your body burns in a day. If your weight is still the same despite a lower food intake, then it’s probably because you haven’t cut enough calories from your diet. In the pursuit of weight loss, having a balanced diet and a consistent exercise regime is not to be forgotten either. If you’re not losing weight despite the changes made, consider signing yourself up for the best weight loss program in Singapore.

While weighing yourself is a standard part of trying to lose weight, is it really a huge determining factor when it comes to tracking weight loss progress?

Focus on fat loss instead of weight loss

Losing weight usually refers to slimming down. Conversely, slimming down doesn’t necessarily mean losing weight off the scale. It may be unheard of, but it is possible to get thinner without seeing a drastic change in your weight! This is when you have lost body fat while gaining muscle. Even though your weight remains the same as you lose inches, take it as a positive sign.

The scale measures everything

The number on the weighing scale is the sum total of your muscle, fat, water, bones or organs. Scale weight tends to fluctuate throughout the day, due to water retention or how often you eat or go to the bathroom. If you step on the scale feeling unhappy with what you’re seeing, then how does that make you feel? When your vision is too narrowed on weight, other results like fat loss or endurance may be overshadowed. On the contrary, the scale may be helpful to track your progress. However, you shouldn’t rely on it too much!

Rethink your approach to track progress

Keep yourself motivated through tangible ways that’ll let you see if your body is making changes, no matter the number on the scale.

– How your clothes fit: If your clothes fit more loosely; then you know you’re making progress!

– Keep track of measurements: It’s difficult to notice the differences between different shapes, so it’d be hard for us to see for ourselves if we’re slimming down in certain areas. If you measure your body at various points (and see results), we’re sure it’ll motivate you to keep going!

– Set performance goals: Focus on completing a certain number of workouts each week. Take note of how long you can hold a plank each day, or set workout goals to accomplish in days to come.
