The yo-yo effect is a common phenomenon among people who have attempted to lose weight. A relapse in weight discourages further action. As soon as we noticed the first effects of the diet, the excess weight came back with redoubled force. In this situation, it is important not to let go, but to consider at what point in the weight loss process we made a mistake.

What is the yoyo effect due to?
The yoyo effect is weight gain after a long or rigorous period of weight loss. Sometimes we gain more weight through the yo-yo effect than we were before the weight loss. This is the result of a poorly chosen diet and an unbalanced approach to one's body. Making the decision to go on a diet is often sudden. We look at our body in the mirror and decide it's time to change something. Slimming down the body adequate preparation and, above all, factual knowledge. It is not without reason that it is said that a diet should be set by a nutritionist. Everyone has different tendencies to lose and gain weight and different reasons why they are prone to fat gain. That is why every diet and set of exercises should start with a consultation with a doctor. It is the omission of this step that brings us closer to the yo-yo effect.

The yo-yo effect - where does it come from?
The yo-yo effect is a phenomenon that can be observed up to five years after weight loss. Weight gain itself begins when we stop maintaining our daily calorie intake and return to the pre-diet diet. This is why starvation diets will never be a good way to lose weight. Restricting food intake to a minimum accustoms the body to constant deprivation. At the first full meals, the nutrients of the food are deposited as fat tissue. This is a defence mechanism - the body protects itself from being cut off again to food, thus visually increasing our volume.
How to avoid the yo-yo effect? Healthy slimming
To avoid the yo-yo effect, weight loss should be approached with caution. Every diet and training plan must be introduced gradually into daily life. For this reason, from 2500 kcal we cannot go down to 800 kcal in one day. This can only result in exhaustion and increased appetite. Added to this are nutritional problems - counting calories too obsessively takes a strong toll on the psyche. Zlhe approach to dieting can end in anorexia and bulimia, very serious illnesses that leave a permanent mark on our health.
The most important thing is to be clear about your goal and to be diligent in pursuing it. The effect is supposed to be a gift for us, not for others. However, if you know you are running out of patience at the start of your diet, you may want to consider aesthetic medicine treatments. Laser therapy available at Wellclinic allows you to achieve a slim body faster. The immediate results make it easier to maintain a healthy diet and daily exercise. The more you take care of yourself, the longer you can maintain your weight after liposuction. For more information, please see the "body treatments" tab.
