\"scale1\"<\/a>When you diet and give it \u201cyour all\u201d\u2026you do everything right, you eat your protein and fiber at all your meals, you exercise and take the right vitamins but\u2026but your weight<\/a> will not budge down that scale one pound more. Frustration sets in and eventually you give up your efforts thinking that nothing is going to work.<\/p>\n

People who despite their best efforts struggle to lose weight are considered \u201cweight loss resistant\u201d.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re one of the \u201cfrustrated one\u201d doing all you believe is right to lose weight but not experiencing the desired results you need to discover the obstacles that are stalling your weight loss.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0Knowledge is power so with that in mind,<\/strong> <\/em>here\u2019s a few culprits that need attention, adjustment and balance in order to get your body back on tract and consistently losing weight again.<\/p>\n

Lack of Sleep:<\/strong> Most people have no idea how important and valuable a good night\u2019s sleep is to the success of their diets. There are many hormones that get unbalanced and go out of whack when you don\u2019t get the required amount of uninterrupted sleep that your body requires to function at peak performance. The best thing to do in order to allow your body to wind-down is to turn off all electronics, and enjoy a nice relaxing hot bath. You can also take supplements\/sleep aids like melatonin. When your body does not get enough sleep it effects your mind and in the end your decisions. You cannot make clear, decisive decisions if your mind is exhausted from lack of sleep.<\/p>\n

Excessive Cardio:<\/strong> High intensity aerobic work-outs are a thing of the past. In order to sustain these work-outs, it requires large amounts of carbohydrates\/sugar to sustain and it promotes hyperinsulinemia which is an over production of insulin. It also increases the production of free radicals as much as 10-20 times the normal rate as well as generating high levels of cortisol (the stress hormone). This imbalance opens you to injury, infection, bone density loss as well as depletion of muscle tissue. If that\u2019s not bad enough, all of this encourages the body to deposit fat\u2026never a good thing!<\/p>\n

If you really want to \u201cblast fat\u201d you need to switch to high-intensity interval training (HIIT) or some sort of burst training. Studies have shown that burst training can actually improve your insulin resistance which aids in greater fat loss. You will not experience these benefits with hours of aerobic classes.<\/p>\n

Food Intolerance:<\/strong> Food intolerance triggers inflammation and leaky gut which is an immune response. The most common offenders include dairy products, gluten, soy, corn, peanuts, artificial sweeteners, eggs, and sugar. Adopting a gluten-free diet has been shown to reduce fat gain, insulin and inflammation. If you find yourself in the \u201cweight loss resistance\u201d mode try an elimination diet for a few weeks to see if you can get the scale in the downward swing again\u2026however, you must completely remove any potential intolerances.<\/p>\n

Toxic Body:<\/strong> Every day in our modern environments we are constantly bombarded by toxins.<\/a> They are in the water you drink and even the air you breathe. A recent study in the journal Lancet revealed that environmental toxins trigger fat gain and even cause diabetes. If you have sensitivity to odors, sex hormone imbalances or insulin resistance your body is most likely signaling to you that you have high toxic overload.<\/p>\n

Chronic Stress:<\/strong> Elevated levels of cortisol (stress hormone) break down your precious muscle and store excess fat. Meditation, many kinds of yoga, deep breathing exercises and even healthy walks in nature are great to help eliminate any kind of stress<\/a> and should become priorities.<\/p>\n
