More Surprising Reasons You Can’t Lose Weight

In 2014 I published an article on “Reasons You Can’t Lose Weight“.

Today I’d like to expand on that partial list (didn’t mean to wait 3 years to do that!)

So besides the reasons listed in the above link, here are a few more to add to the list:

• Poor sleep quality and sleep deprivation cause an increase in ghrelin, a hormone that stimulates appetite, as well as cause a decrease in leptin, a hormone that tells you to stop eating.
• Not staying hydrated.
• Not eating enough calories.
• Stress-yes, stress.  Its effects are evil in every way.
• Gut health
• Excessive fruit intake because the sugar in fruit, fructose, more easily stores as fat than other types of carbs.
