Are You Struggling To Lose Weight?

Are you struggling to lose weight? Have you tried every fad diet out there promising a quick shed of 10lbs in 2 weeks, only to feel like the exception to the results? You may have developed leptin resistance.

Leptin is a hormone whose function is to balance your body weight and energy. It lets your brain know when you should stop eating and when you should release energy to burn off fat.  If leptin levels are high for a prolonged period of time your body can develop a resistance to the signals your brain sends that you are satiated.

Crash diets, calorie restricted diets, and even over consumption of processed foods can cause leptin resistance, derailing all your tireless efforts to lose weight.

There are ways you can remedy this condition but it will require consistency and patience with your body.

- Eat a balanced diet of whole foods. Add healthy fats, lean protein, and  fruits and veggies in your daily diet.

-Cut back drastically on the processed foods and refined sugars.

-Aim for 8 hours of quality sleep each night.

-Get 30 min of exercise in each day. Take the stairs. Park in the back of the parking lot. Go for a walk on your lunch break.

There is no magic pill or one size fits all program out there which will magically melt the added weight. Just follow a healthy lifestyle and balanced diet and be patient with your body. You will see results over time and not feel so deprived in the process.
