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

1) Don't lose more than 10% of your bodyweight in the same weight loss period.
2) Don't lose more than 1% of body weight per week.
3) At the end of a weight loss period, transition to eating at maintenance calories for a while before starting a new weight loss period.
A common mistake is to completely stop dieting when you reach your goal weight. This is a bad idea because your body has adapted to the diet (e.g. decreased energy expenditure) and it's therefore easy to regain weight rapidly. What you should do is keep tracking what you eat while increasing calories to maintenance level, to give a chance to your body to slowly decrease hunger and increase energy expenditure.
