Understanding Stubborn Weight
Why the Weight Will Not Move
Hormonal imbalance
Thyroid, insulin, cortisol, and sex hormones all influence how the body stores and burns fat.
Slowed metabolism
Age, muscle loss, and past dieting can lower the rate at which you burn energy.
Inflammation
Chronic inflammation can interfere with metabolism and make weight loss harder.
“When effort is not producing results, the problem usually is not effort. It is a body holding on for a reason worth identifying.”
Signs it may be time to treat
- Weight that will not move
- Fatigue alongside weight gain
- Cravings and energy swings
- A slowing metabolism
- Weight gain around the midsection
- Effort without results
