Send us Fan Mail From the Vault; This week I talk about one of the questions that comes up regularly in the day-to-day life of any personal trainer and dietitian."I am doing everything right, why am I not losing weight?".Fundamentally the answer is always "It's because you're not doing everything right", and this is what most personal trainers and dietitians will tell you, but that answer isn't enough.The following question should always be "Let's try to find out what the missing link is to your success"I go over the many reasons, and there can be many, you're just not getting the results you're looking for.I talk about;The importance of BMR and calculating that correctly.The problem with overreliance on exercise/training for weightloss.The problem with "calorie in and calorie out, it's that simple"."The time of the month" and the effects of menstruation on weight fluctuations.How sleep, stress, anxiety and depression all impact your weight.That breastfeeding does not equal weightloss.The overall effects of hormones, including post-pregnancy hormones, on weightloss.How "going out for a meal" can be a real bugger when you're trying to lose weight, and what the solution is...don't worry, it's not "just stay in".Why I recommend going to "fancy restaurants" to almost all my weightloss clients.And a bit more.Reminder; HPNB still only has 5 billing cycles.
