Some people tend to do all the right things when it comes to weight loss. They exercise, seemingly make healthy food choices, but something is still missing. The weight seems to be at a standstill.
Well there are a few reasons why what you're doing may not be working. Read below.
1) You have to make sure you don't do too much of a certain thing. For example, over working yourself can do harm to your body. You have to give yourself rest days so your muscles can work. When eating, it is OK to have a cheat meal every now and then during the week so you don't completely undercut yourself.
2) Chronic hunger is a big issue. Feeling hungry right after you just ate, will indicate to you that you aren't full, which will cause you to keep eating until you have no more room. Now you have caused your stomach to be overstuffed, which is not a comfortable feeling.
3) You have to realize that resentful, emotional, and deprivation eating can really ruin things. But if you just allow yourself a "not so harmful" snack every now and then (fruits, nuts, Shakeology, etc) without feeling so guilty, then you'll have a better chance at maintaining. You will easily avoid the weight roller coaster.
4) Stop worrying about when people tell you that you don't need to lose weight or you look fine. When you let the influence of others get to you, you may end up losing focus on reaching your weight loss goals. STAY FOCUSED!
5) You are working out and then eating a super huge meal overdone with calories, fat, and sodium. I run into so many people who for some reason do such a great workout and then ruin it with a bad meal afterwards. Your health is 30% exercise and 70% diet. That should tell you something. Be careful when choosing your post workout meals.
