Dieters perennially complain of exercising great efforts and anticipating a long time to lose a little weight only to gain a lot of weight back in a short time. Crash dieters bear the most. They go under a cruel cycle of starve-and-stuff, only to be appalled that their weight had duplicated than the first time they embarked on weight loss. This is a difficult cycle to be in, and dieters often end up feeling bad and hopeless.
A study released by the MIT Medical names a relatively new weight loss approach based on the set point theory. According to the report, the hypothalamus in the brain dictates the body's weight, and within it is a mechanism that actually governs fat storage. This mechanism is referred to as the set point. According to the set point theory, a person who keeps a healthy set point is able to pull off weight more, by being engaged in healthy activities that by nature burn fat, and by taking a positive self-image that prevents anxiety and depression. A person experiencing anxiety or depression inclines to slow his activity, which in return decelerates fat burning and steps-up weight gain.
According to the set point theory, if a person's fat level descends below the set point, then the brain will prompt the body to step-up appetite. In short, the body's set point protects the stable levels of fat, which crash dieting counters. That is why, after starving themselves, crash dieters find a wild and uncontrollable appetite to eat, resulting in more weight gain.
Advocates of the set point weight loss approach suggest retaining the internal set point low in a step-by-step manner, especially for people who have been heavy and had tried dieting for years. There has been a case study where a woman who tried dieting for 25 years gave up one day and just enjoyed eating, but this time, having a better appreciation for food as source of bodily nutrients instead of wanton pleasure. Miraculously, just when she gave up diet, she started losing weight. The brain's set point had depressed its level of expected stored fats.
Aerobic exercises like biking, running, and swimming also help burn fats and build muscles, which is a great way to lose weight. - 42634

In extreme cases where surgery may be warranted for weight loss, seeking help from professionals is advised. Women who desire to improve their physical appearance with treatments for breast augmentation must do the same.
