Tips on how not to regain weight after losing it?

[Never_give_up]

I just learned something really scary. After you lose a lot of weight (like I do), your body increase hunger and make you less satisfied in order to go back to the weight you started, maybe even more. And it takes a lot of time till the body gets used to your new weight as the normal.

So what can someone do in order not to regain the weight he lost, since the hunger is going to be very strong....?

Just commit to not eating .I mean what else are you going to do ?

Recently I stopped eating that much food.i feel better on empty stomach .as soon as I eat I don't feel like doing anything productive. The more you stuff your self the more cozy you get ..the more lean and in shape you are the more you will actually enjoy being productive because you are starving your dopamine  from food so now you are forced to find pleasure in something else .

I love fasting. I think it has more than just calorie reduction benefits too, inflammation, disease, digestion,...

But it's super easy, and i think it affects how you eat when not fasting.

Just try to go a day with no food, do that a few times over a month, then try a little longer, more frequent, ..... the hunger goes away pretty quickly on a fast after you do it a bit.

*You need electrolytes for longer fasts, I use electrolyte powder bought by a 1lb tub, there's different flavors. But, even just 24hr fasts would help you. Longer fasts are unnecessary for maintaining a weight.

You have to find ways to apply discipline and balanced control of your intake, and gradually add more or other things as days go by.

If you go all out too soon, your body then becomes re-tuned to (that old program) so you will sooner or later put on the weight again.

 

Some good tips I would say that should definitely help are things like:

Don't consume the foods you ate before that lead to the excess weight. Switch with whole foods / healthy alternatives.

Do emotional work and learn to feel and process your emotions and not suppress with food. This is a BIG one.

Exercise daily and spend time in nature. Keep yourself busy so you don't get bored and end up thinking about food for that next "hit".

After you do some fasting or lose a lot of wait, you will feel a strong urge to over eat, but this can almost cancel out the whole experience.

Hunger is also related to excess parasites so maybe a parasite cleanse could help.
