All right. So you've lost weight. The scale has gone down, but for some reason, the scale has stopped going down. It's very confusing, and it can be very frustrating.
It happens all the time. You're not alone.
I have many people coming into my practice every week to find out why they can’t lose any more weight. They tell me that they have tried Keto, they’ve tried Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig, Noom, MyFitnessPal, Adkins. They’ve tried working out—the scale was going down. Now it stopped.
They can't lose any more weight, and they want to know what is going on or what they are doing wrong.
If this story resonates with you, then listen up. I have some tips for you to start losing weight again and to get the scale to start going down once again.
I'm Dr. Ian Rainey, the founder of Zoomloss, and I want to help you lose weight and reach your health and weight loss goals. So now let’s get to work and get that scale moving again.
The number one thing I see is that people are not eating enough and when you don't eat enough, your body goes, “Whoa, time out! I don't have enough resources to survive. There's a famine coming. So I better slow down my metabolism and prepare for this famine so we can get through it and survive.” Now, as a result, your body slows down your metabolism. It starts to use muscle for its fuel source, and it starts storing fat. This is bad news.
A lot of people are eating unhealthy foods, even though they think their foods are healthy, you know, and I'm not going to go into what's healthy food and what's not healthy food.
There's so much available information on the internet. You might have to find out what's best for you. For example, some people are doing keto, and they say, “It's great. I'm going to lose weight.” And then they find out that their gallbladder doesn't like processing all the fat. There are different diets for different people. And you need to make sure that you're doing one that is going to compliment your body type and your composition.
Another thing that I see is people are not tracking what they're eating. If you use a food journal for a few days and you look at what you actually ate, you're going to see sugars and chemicals in the majority of those foods.
You're going to see preservatives. You're going to see refined junk that is going to make your body gain weight. Believe me. This is a powerful test. Another thing I see is that people are not consuming enough protein.
You need to be able to build good lean muscle. And if you're not getting enough protein, your body will not build that muscle or maintain that muscle.
Another thing that causes you to see the scale stop is when you drink your calories. You go get that smoothie full of sweet strawberry deliciousness. Of course, the smoothie place tells you it has a lot of protein and it is gluten-free.
Unfortunately, they forget to tell you that you're getting a lot of sugar in there as well. And if you don't use that sugar up in two hours, you're going to store it as fat. So make sure you do not drink your calories.
Another thing that must be addressed is sleep. If you're not sleeping, you must correct your sleep pattern to maintain an ideal weight. This is very important. If you're not getting enough quality sleep, you'll find that you cannot lose weight or maintain an ideal weight.
