You regained 5 pounds?
Author: Oksana Aron, MD Source: Weight Loss NYC Sep 30, 2025So you regained some weight
A common response many people have is not to worry too much, make a few simple changes, and the weight will come off. Another theory is It’s only 5 pounds, and I can get it off on my own. I am embarrassed to go back to the weight loss center where I lost the weight, because they will think I’m a failure...
What is a few pounds?
So what is 5 pounds after all? 5 pounds is 17,000 calories. You would have to drink water and take vitamins and eat nothing else for 11 days to lose 5 pounds of fat! That is obviously not the right approach.
