3 Reasons You’re Not Losing Weight

 

Weight loss can be tough and all the wonderful food choices we have can make it  really tough!

I don’t believe in diets but I do believe in a plan.  There are certain things that you need to do to make a weight loss plan work.

You will need to choose healthy, real foods that nourish your body. You need to cut out processed foods and exercise.

You need the exercise to keep your skin tight as you lose those unwanted pounds and because you want to lose fat not muscle.

Plenty of people think they’re doing all the right things, yet the weight isn’t dropping off.

If that describes you and you’re wondering why you’re still the same weight, see if the things on the list below apply.

Also use your favorite dress or too tight jeans as a measure…not just the scale.  Why?  Because as you lose inches and you’re exercising you may not see pounds drop but you will see a decrease in inches.

Top 3 Reasons You’re Not Losing Weight

 

1. You’re not paying attention to snacks and drinks

These are adding to your overall food intake. A lot of people only pay attention to the foods that they’re eating during meals.

They forget about the glass of wine they had out with friends. If you start jotting down everything you put in your mouth during the day, you may be surprised.

 2. You’re not Changing your self-talk

A lot of times we end up eating too fast and too much because we’re not thinking about what we’re eating.

If you’re doing that, you’re also cutting down on the enjoyment of your food. Focus on chewing and thinking about the flavors of your food.

Are you constantly telling yourself…”I’ll always be heavy,” “I’ll never lose weight because of my genetics,” “I’m just not meant to be an exercise-y person.” If these sound familiar then you need to focus on tapping into the power of your brain by changing that mindset.

Start with daily affirmations. Every cell in your body responds to what your brain is telling it. Tell yourself every single day, several times a day…”I am walking in a body I love,” “I am strong, sexy and confident,” “My body is a fat burning machine!

This may feel silly at first but believe me, your brain is THE most powerful tool you have to get in the best shape of your life.  I use affirmations in all my programs.

If you change ONLY one thing…You will be blown away by the power of this one simple thing…Positive Affirmations

3. You’re not getting enough sleep

Your body needs between 7 and 9 hours of sleep each night.

When you don’t get that much sleep, you stop making the hormones you need to burn calories and recognize when you’re full.

Sleep deprivation is directly linked to weight gain and even obesity. Take whatever steps you need to make sure you are getting the right amount of quality sleep each night.
