Why you struggle to lose weight on your own

It’s frustrating to pour energy into losing weight and see little to no progress, but it’s not always due to a lack of effort. Biological and physiological factors can make shedding those pounds a real challenge. Here’s why you might struggle:

Hormones

Hormones are chemical messengers that play a significant role in appetite, how much energy you have, and where your body stores fat. When key hormones like insulin, cortisol, and leptin are out of balance, it can make weight easy to gain and hard to lose despite your best efforts.

Metabolism

Metabolism is how the body converts food into energy. Your metabolic rate, partly determined by genetics, controls how many calories you burn at rest and during activity. 

A naturally slower metabolism means you expend fewer calories, causing the body to store more energy as fat. That can make achieving the calorie deficit needed for weight loss more challenging.

Genetics

Your inherited genetic makeup influences things like natural satiety cues (how easily you feel full), your body’s preference for storing fat versus lean muscle, and your tolerance for physical activity.

Personalized support for your weight loss journey

If you can’t lose weight on your own, a personalized medical weight loss plan can provide a more effective path forward.
