You’ve been trying to lose weight for a while now, and it just doesn’t seem to be working. Your clothes are still tight, your diet is strict, and you’re exercising more than ever. So why aren’t you losing weight? Stress is one of the most common reasons why people can’t lose weight, but there could be other explanations for it as well.
Read on to learn about the top 10 reasons why you’re not losing weight.
1. You are losing weight; you don’t know it
There is nothing to worry about, if your weighing scale does not budge for a week or so. This does not imply that you are not shedding pounds. Some people think they aren’t losing when they are actually losing. Body weight fluctuates; a few pounds here and there are okay. Your diet and hormones play a role in this. Water retention in the body, especially female body, also is important.
You need to worry only when you find your weight stuck at the same figure for more than 3 weeks despite putting in appropriate efforts to lose weight.
