For many expatriates, losing weight often means strict diets: restrictions, frustrations, calorie counting… But is that really the only solution? And above all, is it effective in the long term when living far from home, with different habits and reference points?
At Wellness Voyages, we believe it’s possible to lose weight differently — gently, and above all, sustainably, even while living abroad.
The Problem with Traditional Diets for Expatriates
Traditional diets often create a difficult cycle: a loop of hope, strict control, then bingeing followed by guilt.
For expatriates, this pattern can be even more intense, with the stress of adapting to a new country, nostalgia, and changes in the food environment.
The result: temporary weight loss, often followed by rapid regain — sometimes with extra pounds.
Not to mention the deep impact on self-esteem and the relationship with food, which become sources of anxiety rather than pleasure.
A different approach to weight loss for expatriates
Losing weight without dieting means choosing to listen to your body despite changes in environment and culture. It’s about understanding your deep needs, adopting sustainable habits, and adapting to your new life.
It’s also about learning to embrace your emotions, working on your mindset, and taking care of your vital energy, even far from home.
In short, it’s adopting a holistic approach that respects your story, your pace, and your expatriate daily life.
The Holistic Weight Loss Method
Our 3 to 5-day workshops are based on four fundamental pillars: body, heart, mind, and energy. They are designed to support expatriates in a comprehensive and lasting transformation, far from the dictates of dieting.
Losing weight without dieting is not a myth: it’s a reality accessible through a shift in perspective, approach, and tools tailored to your expatriate lifestyle.
