Just went trough Yo-Yo. Any good strategies on how to overcome it for good?

it is, at best, a tautology, at worst, taunting the asker on the very thing they are struggling with. I think we can do better to help each other with something difficult

It is what i did. Learn to live with hunger for a while instead of going to "fix it" instantly.

No idea why you are so dismissive.

the fact that you were able to live with your level of hunger does not mean that for somebody else the level of hunger is the same or is as easy to manage as it was for you. this is not helpful

Fasting is a natural state. Food addiction is real, as is lack of discipline.

Just stop overeating. That's the magic bullet. Always has been.

What's not helpful is looking for weird workarounds all the time. Just stop eating so much.
