Q. How do I start a TKM diet program using the AI coaching app? Could you walk me through the steps?

A.

First, install the app and carefully record your current physical condition. Next, we will analyze your constitution (Sasang constitution) through a remote or in-person consultation to prescribe personalized herbal medicine. While taking the medicine, you will manage your diet and activity levels following the AI coaching guidelines. Rather than simply starving, view this as a process of normalizing your body's metabolism.

📝 Detailed Answer

I've experienced the frustration of trying to lose weight through extreme fasting, which often leads to dizziness and a total lack of energy. To ensure you don't go through that struggle, here is a step-by-step guide to the Baekrokdam system: 1. App Installation & Basic Data Entry: Record your current eating habits, sleep patterns, and overall condition. This data provides crucial clues for me to understand your health status. 2. Constitutional Analysis & Consultation: Through a consultation, we determine the extent of 'Dameum' (痰飮, accumulated phlegm-fluid/metabolic waste) hindering your Qi and blood circulation, or whether you are experiencing 'Bi-heo' (脾虛, deficiency of the Spleen/digestive dysfunction). Since the cause of weight gain varies by individual, this step is essential. 3. Personalized Herbal Prescription: Based on your constitution, I prescribe herbal medicine to remove 'Eohyeol' (瘀血, blood stasis) and boost basal metabolism. I don't just use strong formulas; I adjust the dosage to a level your body can comfortably handle. 4. AI Coaching & Lifestyle Management: While taking the medicine, adjust your diet according to the app's guidelines. The AI analyzes your records to provide advice at the optimal time, so you don't have to rely solely on willpower. 5. Regular Feedback & Adjustment: We monitor your body's reaction and modify the strength of the medicine or the direction of your diet. If you hit a plateau or your condition changes, I will be right there to fine-tune the plan with you. Ultimately, dieting is not just about reducing weight, but about restoring the broken balance of your body. Let's start this journey together slowly and steadily.
