Blog 19: Breaking the Cycle of Yo-Yo Dieting

Written By Health Wyze

Up, Down, and Back Again

You lose the weight. Then it creeps back. Then you try again. The cycle feels endless—and exhausting.

Why Yo-Yo Dieting Happens

  • Metabolic slowdown: Each restrictive diet lowers metabolism.

  • Hormonal shifts: Dieting increases hunger hormones.

  • Psychological burnout: Constant restriction leads to bingeing.

How to Break Free

  1. Ditch extreme diets. Choose balanced, sustainable eating.

  2. Focus on habits, not quick fixes. Small daily wins add up.

  3. Prioritize strength training. Builds lean muscle, boosts metabolism.

  4. Support your hormones. Get enough sleep and manage stress.

👉 Yo-yo dieting isn’t your fault—it’s the system. Want lasting transformation? Book a consult today.
