Why Your Not Losing Weight While in a Calorie Deficit- Day 52
from Lose Weight + Build Muscle After 35: The Body Recomposition Podcast · host RAC Fitness - Robyn Creary
Wondering why you're not losing weight even though you're eating in a calorie deficit? You're not alone, and your metabolism isn't broken. In this episode, we unpack the three most common reasons the scale refuses to budge: you're not actually in a calorie deficit, temporary water retention is masking fat loss, or your body has adapted after prolonged dieting. You'll learn why calorie-tracking apps, fitness watches, restaurant meals, and "just a few bites" can quietly erase your deficit, why the scale doesn't always reflect body recomposition, and how to troubleshoot a fat-loss plateau without falling for metabolism myths or giving up too soon. 💪 Ready to workout with us?
