Q I lost weight fast on a diet before, then gained it all back with worse fatty liver. I'm scared it'll happen again.
A Yo-yo dieting is a common pattern that worsens fatty liver. The key is speed and sustainability. Korean medicine focuses on gradual weight loss and metabolic recovery to reduce yo-yo risk.
Detailed Answer
Weight regained after rapid loss often comes back as more visceral fat, worsening fatty liver. Yo-yo dieting is driven by appetite surges and a drop in basal metabolic rate—both byproducts of overly aggressive weight loss. A slow, steady reduction with a smooth transition to everyday eating is the most important factor.
Korean Medicine Perspective
Rather than simple weight loss, Korean medicine treatment restores gastrointestinal and metabolic function, building a foundation to maintain a stable weight even with the same dietary intake. For those who have struggled with yo-yo dieting, we design a plan that is slower and more stable.
