📝 Detailed Answer
Many people ask about a one-month diet method, but rushing to find a 'method' often leads to failure. In clinical practice, I explain by dividing patients into two main cases.
First, if you have taken Western diet drugs (e.g., Wegovy, Saxenda) or repeatedly tried extreme dietary restrictions, you are likely in a Spleen Deficiency (Pi Xu) state where the Spleen-Stomach system is weakened. A weak spleen easily accumulates water-dampness, and digestion becomes unstable, causing weight to fluctuate more easily. In this case, instead of a one-month goal, priority should be given to restoring the Spleen-Stomach. Herbs such as Atractylodes macrocephala (Baekchul) and Atractylodes lancea (Changchul) are used first to strengthen the organs and normalize digestive function.
Second, if you have consistently exercised and controlled your diet but still cannot lose weight, the issue may not be simple caloric excess but an underlying constitutional pathology such as Blood Stasis (Eohyeol) or Phlegm-Fluid (Dameum). Blood Stasis impairs blood circulation and slows fat breakdown; Phlegm-Fluid disrupts fluid metabolism, leading to edema and weight gain. In such cases, treatment involves combining blood-activating and dampness-draining herbs to improve the constitution itself.
In conclusion, the key to a one-month diet method is a personalized approach, and before that, understanding your own body's current state is the most important step. If you are interested, visiting a clinic for a Traditional Korean Medicine constitutional analysis is the most reliable way to proceed.
