Sometimes you can eat well and exercise regularly and still the weight just won’t drop off. It’s incredibly infuriating when you are trying your hardest to lose weight but nothing happens, leaving your feeling like those extra pounds are never going to disappear. Like most women, I’ve been there – struggled to lose weight and not known what I was doing wrong. It’s hard to be in a position where you just can’t get the pounds to shift.

 

The good news is, that normally when you just can’t seem to get the weight to shift, there’s a reason for it – a factor that you most probably haven’t considered. The question is, of course, what is that factor? What is causing you to struggle with your weight? Below are some suggestions of reasons why you may be struggling to lose weight and ways that you can change that. Read on for all the best weight loss hacks for when those extra pounds won’t budget.

 

Drink infused water

 

Often, the reason that you can’t lose weight is because your metabolism is running slow. It can be hard to know why this is; sometimes it’s because of medication that you are taking, such as hormonal contraception, other times it’s because of the lifestyle that you are leading. Either way, if your metabolism is running slow, you need to find a way to change that and speed it up, else you will always struggle to lose weight. A simple way to give your metabolism a boost is to drink fruit infused water, also known as detox water. The simple combination of water and certain fruits and vegetables can help to give your metabolism a boost by cleansing your system – drinking these kinds of drinks is like hitting the reset button on your metabolism.

 

Take weight loss supplements

 

Another option for giving your weight loss a boost by speeding up your metabolism is using weight loss supplements. Seeing as there are so many options on the market, choosing the one that’s the best fit for you and your body can be difficult. The best thing that you can do is read up online about the different supplements and the impact that they have on the body and metabolism. If you aren’t sure what supplements to opt to use, the best thing that you can do is talk to an expert, such as a personal trainer, to find what the best option is for you.

 

Change how you’re exercising

 

When you are exercising regularly but the weight isn’t dropping off, it can be incredibly frustrating. However, there is a fairly simple explanation to this issue – normally it’s because your body has got used to how you exercise, and because of this your workouts aren’t as effective as they used to be. The best way to ensure that your body gets the workout that it needs, is to change up your workout. Simply by swapping how you workout, you can help to give your metabolism the boost that it needs. Often, swapping to shorter, more intense workouts can be the answer to shedding those extra pounds. There are plenty of workout examples on YouTube that you can use for inspiration.

 

It can be incredibly frustrating when that extra weight just won’t shift, but what it’s important to realise is that there is always a way to give your metabolism the boost that it needs.
