Did you know that 8 out of 10 people who lose weight regain it within two years?

We often follow diets that help us lose weight, only to return to our previous lifestyle afterwards. Combined with physiological changes in the body that can promote weight regain, this can lead us to put back the weight we lost, and sometimes even more. Then we start another diet, and the cycle begins again.

If you’ve been in this situation and are wondering what you can do, consider these options:

1. Accept yourself as is and enjoy life at your current weight.
2. Start another diet, believing that this time you will keep the weight off without changing anything about your lifestyle.
3. Decide to change the habits that contribute to weight gain.

Among the 2 in 10 people who maintain their weight loss, certain lifestyle habits are common. According to the US National Weight Control Registry, people who have maintained their weight loss pay attention to their food portions and engage in regular physical activity. In addition:

• 78% eat breakfast every day.
• 75% weigh themselves at least once a week.
• 62% watch less than 10 hours of television per week.
• 90% exercise for an average of one hour a day.

If you want to lose weight and maintain your weight loss over time, and you are ready to work on the habits that contribute to weight regain, you are in the right place. At Studio Diatrofis, you will find the guidance you need to work towards your goal.

Together, we will work on:

1. Improving the quality of your diet.
2. Managing your portion sizes.
3. Improving your eating habits.
4. Taking action towards habits and other factors that may affect your weight, such as physical activity, sedentary behaviour, sleep and stress.

We start working with your existing habits from the very beginning. That way, by the time you reach the maintenance stage, you’ll be better prepared to support yourself without needing a separate maintenance plan.

How?

• Through detailed assessment, motivational support, goal setting, monitoring and feedback.
• By looking at your current habits and building new ones.
• By identifying barriers to changing your habits and finding ways to address them.
• By learning about food portions and how they can support weight management.
• With persistence and patience.

Why?

Because we all have the right to take charge of our weight and wellbeing.
