Many weight loss programs only focus on short-term weight loss. In order to keep any weight you lose off, take care to choose a program that includes long-term weight maintenance.

The long-term effects depend on the weight loss program you choose; some programs don’t focus on sustainable weight loss, and so the overall effects could be negligible or even negative to your body and mental health. The best weight loss programs focus on achieving your weight loss goal and sustaining a healthy weight for the foreseeable future. This helps reduce your body’s fat, and can normalise blood sugar levels, and improve your cardiovascular and overall health, helping you live a longer, healthier, and fulfilling life.

Sustainable weight loss typically occurs at 0.5-1kg per week. Most clients see meaningful results within 8-12 weeks of a structured programme. The focus should be on sustainable behaviour change rather than rapid loss, which is more likely to be maintained long-term.

The most effective weight loss program is the one that works for you; be mindful that programs that work for you, may not work for others, and vice versa.

Professional weight loss programmes are supervised plans that combine dietary guidance, exercise programming, behavioural coaching, and medical assessment to support sustainable fat loss and improved health. They are delivered by dietitians, nutritionists, personal trainers, GPs, or specialist weight management clinics.

It depends on the weight loss program you choose. Ask your doctor what a healthy weight for you should be, and set that as your target.
