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.

Ways to Maintain Weight Loss

Ways to Maintain Weight Loss

Maintaining your weight loss essentially means battling a system that is habituated to gaining lost weight. The transition from losing weight to maintaining it should be very seamless. Secondly, it is easy to maintain your goal weight when you make exercise a part of your life. This is because a hormone called leptin, informs the brain about the loss of fat stores, making you prone to quick weight gain. Here are some ways to maintain weight loss.

Accompany someone

Just like any successful venture, a weight loss program succeeds earlier when you find the right company. Find a workout buddy to accompany you to the slimming centre. Support is not limited to workout buddies. Have an active social circle and keep them posted about your progress.

Couples and friends, who lose weight together, maintain the weight loss for longer. Share your workouts, diet plans, and maintenance with your community. You will be accountable to family and friends and will be driven to maintain weight loss.

Get proper sleep

People who don’t sleep enough are likely to compensate for the tiredness by eating more in the day. Furthermore, they usually make high-calorie choices. Tiredness during the day also leads to loss of energy for physical activity.

Loss of sleep also affects appetite. Consequently, those who get less than 7 hours of sleep are more likely to be overweight. Cultivate a culture of sleeping on time at home and maintain weight loss easily.

Track your progress meticulously

Tracking the progress of your weight loss program is important. 75% of successful weight loss maintainers weigh themselves at least once a week. This is necessary to know if you have gained weight. This can help you get your weight back to the ideal mark in time.

However, fluctuations are common, and it is important not to feel de-motivated just because you have gained a pound. Avoid watching your weight every day and underestimating your self-worth.

Try alternative slimming methods

Singaporeans are increasingly trusting methods like Traditional Chinese Medicine to maintain their weight loss. TCM slimming involves a combination of holistic healing techniques that keep lifestyle diseases at bay, too. Make techniques like cupping, acupressure, and acupuncture, a part of your weight loss program.
TCM slimming can be beneficial because it works on the principle of restoring the body’s qi balance. Long-term obesity is also brought about by dampness, which Traditional Chinese Medicine rids the body of.

Bring more activity in your daily life

This can be done in a number of ways. You can start off by limiting your screen time. No matter whether it is your computer, TV, or phone, cut it down to half. The average person has the tendency to munch on foods full of empty calories while in front of the screen. Try to spend more time outdoors and offer to do chores. Make exercise a part of your life and have fitness idols so that the weight loss is long term.

Above all, be persistent in your efforts to maintain the results of your weight loss program. It is natural to break out of your schedule and eat without restraint occasionally. Get back to the old ways as soon as possible.
