If you are making effort to lose weight but are struggling to see the results you were hoping for, there may be a few roadblocks coming into play, making it hard to see the progress you were hoping for. Although it can take one or two weeks for you to see the effects of early weight loss, this can be very frustrating for any dieter.
By looking at some of the unknown challenges that could be coming into play, you will be better able to figure out precisely what you might want to consider changing.
Let us take a closer look…
Thyroid Related Issues. The first health factor that could be influencing your lack of weight loss is whether you have a thyroid related issue coming into the mix. If you have untreated hypothyroidism, for example, this is going to make it difficult to lose body fat. Your body will not be burning up calories quickly and, as a result, you will not see the pounds drop off as you had hoped.
Thyroid related issues are a quick fix with medication, so all you need to do is visit your doctor and have a blood test performed to see if this is the case. It is important to note if you are diagnosed with hypothyroidism, this condition will not change. You will have this health issue for life so will need to remain on the prescribed medication.
Medications. Another factor making weight loss a challenge is if you are on drugs that cause medicine related weight gain. While this is rare and most of the effects a drug has are relatively minor, it is still important to note as there are instances where medications promote weight gain. If you feel this may be happening to you, it will be essential for you to speak with your doctor and ask what alternative drugs you may be able to take.
Note, in some cases, there is no alternative, and it is essential for your health to stay on the medication and risk weight gain than come off them. In this situation, be extra careful with your food choices.
Lack of Planning. Finally, the last issue not related to physiology that can have a severe influence on your ability to shed weight is if you are not able to plan out your diet.
For example, if you are someone who is…
- away on business a lot,
- often on the road, or
- just highly active; always on the go,
it is almost impossible to plan a healthy diet.
While being “busy” should not be used as an excuse, there are always those people who take busy to a whole new level. If this is your life right now, you may need to accept for the time being you will not be able to achieve the weight loss results you are hoping for at present and put your efforts off to a time when your life is less busy. Otherwise, you may end up continually facing frustration.
There you have some of the most pressing reasons why you may not be losing your desired amount of weight despite your best efforts. If any of these difficulties are coming into play, know you have not failed altogether and with proper care and action steps, you should be able to start measuring success.
Although managing your disease can be very challenging, Type 2 diabetes is not a condition you must just live with. You can make simple changes to your daily routine and lower both your weight and your blood sugar levels. Hang in there, the longer you do it, the easier it gets.
One last thing… you should try this “7-second hack” that burns 1 pound of belly fat per day…
“All this by a 7-second hack?” I asked.
I met an old friend for lunch last month and I was super impressed with how good she looked.
She said, “It’s not so much about the “7-second hack”, but more about how it removes built-up toxins inside your body — to repair your body’s slow metabolism and to ignite your body’s natural ability to burn fat and improve your health and appearance. ”
Even though I was skeptical, I’ve been struggling with my weight over the last few years, so I gave it a shot and watched the same video she did.
Well, it’s only a couple weeks later and you know what they say about how “you can’t transform your body overnight”…
They’re right – it actually took me 16 days to lose 22 pounds.
Now it’s my girlfriends asking ME what I’M doing differently 
Imagine waking up every morning full of energy and loving what you see in the mirror…

All while knowing your health is being protected by one of the most powerful natural healing rituals ever discovered.
