If you want to lose weight healthily, effectively and with lasting results, improve your lifestyle habits (https://icaro.med.br/15habitos/); simple as that. If you don't do this and “lose weight” only through some treatment or medication, you may become dependent on it, meaning that whenever you stop, there's a good chance you'll regain the weight you've lost (especially in the form of fat and fluid retention)... And who wants to be a slave to something? On the subject of weight loss, I recommend these two links for further study (after all, no one defeats an enemy without knowing him well, as Sun Tzu once said):
But what about when your lifestyle habits are as healthy as possible and you still can't lose weight (effectively and healthily)?
1 - Do you really have basically adequate lifestyle habits? Your body needs four basic fuels to function: the air you breathe, the water you drink, your diet (and digestion/assimilation/distribution/transformations/use of the nutrients you eat) and good blood circulation; if one of these is missing, your brain “tells” you to reduce your metabolism and accumulate all four, just in case... The result of this is that any lack of fuel for the body disrupts circulation, and makes you sluggish, retaining fluids and fat.
2 - If you already have healthier lifestyle habits (remembering that what you have “destroyed” in years can take many months to correct), think again: haven't you already achieved the best body composition that your habits and genetic profile currently allow? I ask this because there are often situations where people want more than they can achieve in their current condition... And there are very few people who are able to adopt 100% ok habits, the only situation that would allow for a “perfect” body.
But if this isn't the case and you really are over your ideal weight, go to step 3;
3 - Have nutrient deficiencies, excesses (intoxications) and a good fight against oxidative stress been corrected? The above situations inflame and stress your body (by forcing it to work in “extreme” situations) and both conditions cause it to take on “alternative” metabolic pathways that chronically have the effect of reducing metabolism, saving water (in inappropriate places) and producing fat.
4 - Have the quantity/quality/function of your hormones and neurotransmitters been modulated? Hormones and neurotransmitters are nothing more than “messengers”, enabling communication between neurons and other cells/organs: in simpler terms, they enable both “thoughts” and orders from the brain and glands. An organism without them is like a city without a post office, telephones or delivery people (and the like): it may have everything it needs to function properly, but without communication, it simply won't work. In the case of the body, the lack of proper transmission of information generates stress and inflammation which, as we well know, leads to damage to the metabolism, fluid retention and fat production.
* The term modular means balancing, raising the levels of what is low and reducing excesses.
5 - Are you using substances that could be negatively affecting your metabolism? Often, some medicine, supplement, food or even tea is used incorrectly and therefore harms the metabolism (and remember what happens when your metabolism suffers? Your whole body stresses, inflames and suffers along with it).
6 - Have any detectable changes been corrected in tests? Alterations in tests should always be correlated with other tests and the patient's clinical condition and motivate the appropriate measures to correct them: after all, who thinks it's possible to have excellent health, but with merely reasonable or “acceptable” tests?
7 - Various pathologies/symptoms decompensated, despite having followed ALL the above steps correctly? Even if the tests are “ok”, the presence of symptoms indicates that something isn't right in the body and merits investigation and treatment, as it could be the cause or aggravating factor of excess weight.
Of course, this text doesn't pretend to exhaust the subject, which in itself is quite extensive, full of variants that interfere and interact with each other: the idea here is just to help organize the approach to the subject a little more so that it becomes more effective! But as you've seen, the basis of everything remains having and maintaining healthy lifestyle habits, which can correct/improve/adjust ALL of the above “steps”... And, for the most part, they depend on you to make them a reality!
