My Unexpected Weightloss Journey
Five years ago, I weighed 65kg. I often thought it would be nice to feel lighter, but as a TCM practitioner, I had no desire to starve myself or spend hours at the gym. For years, nothing changed.
Then, I made one simple decision for my general health: I started walking for an hour, 3–4 times a week. No pressure, just pleasant walks. Over a year, I lost 5kg without trying.
Next, I followed the therapeutic meal plan I’d developed for my patients—designed not for weight loss, but for restoring digestion and metabolism. In three months, another 7kg came off. Total: 12kg. No calorie counting. No willpower battles. Just walking, eating well and allowing my body to heal.
What Made the Difference?
Three things set this apart from traditional dieting:
I never went hungry: I ate until satisfied with nourishing, properly prepared food.Movement was enjoyable: Walking was gentle, restorative, and sustainable.Body systems were restored: As digestion improved, weight loss became a side effect of better health.
The Patients Who Confirmed It
Since then, I’ve guided many patients through this approach. What they celebrate most isn’t the scale:
“I’m sleeping through the night.” “My digestion has transformed.” “I feel like myself again.”You Haven’t Failed. The Method Failed You.
If diets haven’t worked, it isn’t your fault. You were trying to fix a systemic issue with a superficial solution. What if weight loss was a natural result of health? Imagine eating without guilt and moving with ease. As health returns, excess weight often releases—not through force but through restoration.
