The first reason you may not be able to lose weight is…
- You Have a Medical Condition That is Making Things Harder
There are actually some medical conditions that can drive weight gain and make it much harder to lose weight. Some of these conditions include hypothyroidism, polycystic ovarian syndrome, Chronic Stress, Cushing’s Syndrome, Addison’s Disease, Depression, Hormonal Changes, Rheumatoid Arthritis and even sleep apnea.
The biggest culprit that I have seen when working with hundreds of patients trying to lose weight are thyroid disorders. This includes both men and women but mostly women.
When your immune system messes with your thyroid, it can cause unexplained weight changes. You see Your thyroid helps control your metabolism, so if it’s underactive (which is called “hypothyroidism”), everything slows down.
That’s why common symptoms with thyroid disorders include weight gain, fatigue, constipation, hair loss, and even depression.
In addition to thyroid disorders, certain medications can also make weight loss harder, or even cause weight gain. The more medications you’re taking the harder it is to lose weight.
But don’t lose hope, I have helped hundreds of patients overcome many of these issues with great success.
