📝 Detailed Answer
I completely understand the frustration of trying various diets only to end up feeling dizzy and depleted; it can feel like an uphill battle. The key to successful weight loss is not simply eating less, but optimizing how efficiently your body's 'engine' operates.
First, if you frequently experience bloating and a feeling of heaviness, we must address 'Dameum' (痰飮, phlegm-fluid retention). When waste products accumulate and block the circulation of Qi and Blood, your body becomes more prone to gaining weight and harder to slim down. For such cases, prescriptions that promote circulation are essential.
Conversely, some patients suffer from 'Bi-heo' (脾虛, Spleen Deficiency), characterized by poor digestion and chronic fatigue. When Spleen function declines, metabolism slows down, making you feel as though you gain weight even after eating very little. In this case, rather than simply suppressing appetite, the focus should be on boosting energy to increase your basal metabolic rate.
Furthermore, we must consider 'Eo-hyeol' (瘀血, blood stasis), which occurs when metabolic waste remains in the body due to previous excessive dieting. When blood circulation is stagnant, you may feel that certain areas of your body are particularly stubborn and refuse to lose weight. A prescription that addresses these intricate details is what leads to real results.
Ultimately, rather than a one-size-fits-all answer, the priority is accurately identifying your current physical state. Even through a non-face-to-face consultation, I will thoroughly analyze your symptoms, so please feel free to share your concerns.
