Do you recommend diets like the McDonald's diet, or is there a better way to lose weight?

To be honest, I remember a time when I was overly ambitious and tried a trending diet, only to end up feeling dizzy and exhausted. Even as a licensed practitioner of Korean medicine, I made a few mistakes in the past. Diets that insist on a single menu have clear advantages: calorie counting is easy, and the lack of decision-making regarding meals provides psychological comfort. However, the disadvantages are more significant. Nutritional imbalances occur easily, and more importantly, these diets lack 'sustainability.' This often leads to a cycle of binge eating driven by a psychological desire for reward. In Traditional Korean Medicine, this state is often viewed as 'Bi-heo' (Spleen Deficiency). When the function of the Spleen weakens, the body's ability to digest and absorb nutrients drops, creating a vicious cycle where you crave more stimulating foods due to a lack of energy. Furthermore, if 'Dam-eum' (phlegm-fluid retention/metabolic waste) accumulates in the body, metabolism slows down, potentially turning you into a constitution where weight loss becomes difficult even with low caloric intake. Ultimately, the answer lies in finding a method that fits 'your own body.' For some, the priority may be removing 'Eo-hyeol' (blood stasis/stagnant blood) to improve circulation, while for others, reducing edema (swelling) is the first step. Rather than blindly following a trendy diet, I suggest first observing the signals your body is sending.
