Why Are You Not Losing Weight?

Why Are You Not Losing Weight?

Despite all your efforts, do you feel like you are not losing weight? If yes, than this blog is for you. There are three main reasons why you are not losing the weight despite all your efforts. Read the reasons why and implement them. 

1-      Diet

Despite eating clean and healthy, a lot people do not eat in a calorie deficit way. You may either be eating in a caloric surplus or eating your maintenance calories. Hence, no reduction in your weight. So, eat in a caloric deficit. Track your calories every day.

Even if you’re eating in a caloric deficit, you might be binge eating on weekends. Celebrating with friends or watching a great movie, all this could lead you to eat in a caloric surplus. Always track your calories.

Although, tracking calories is about how much you are consuming but you might miss out the extra bites, here and there snacking and more similar situations that is leading you to eat in a caloric surplus. Beware of all that.

2-      Workout

It is not necessary that you should work out every day. However, for a good progress, it is imperative that you should workout at least thrice a week. Consistency will show results.

In addition to that, you need to have a proper workout plan. To explain this point, let me give you an example. For instance, you need to study for an exam. What do you do? You go through the syllabus, see what is more important that needs to be done first, what needs your extra attention and how much time should you spend on each topic. You see, plan, and finally execute. That is how it works with exercise.

3-      Recovery

Your sleeping patterns matter a lot in terms of your weight. It is related in terms of release of hormones. For more information on this matter, you can check this blog – Sleep Deprivation Leads To Gaining Pounds?

Likewise, your mood is going to be another factor with great importance. That is your stress level. The higher the stress, the greater chance of increase in weight. For more information, you can read this blog – Stress is making you fat

Another important factor is rest. Do NOT over workout. Rest when you feel tired. Take a day off.

To summarise, it is important for you to stay away from stress, no skipping sleep and a rest day is must.
