Weight Loss Resistance
Weight loss resistance is a common struggle among many women, yet the support available often falls short. The typical advice from sources like Google, doctors, social media, and weight loss companies revolves around exercising more and trying the latest diet or product.
Unfortunately, this approach usually fails to deliver lasting results and can have detrimental effects on metabolism, self-confidence, and overall well-being. Instead of simply pushing for more exercise and diet changes, I believe it’s crucial to delve deeper into the root causes of weight loss resistance by examining environmental, lifestyle, and physiological imbalances.
Imagine the empowerment of being able to shed excess fat for good by addressing the underlying reasons behind its presence. This involves a comprehensive exploration of the true triggers behind weight gain and resistance to losing it. Many crucial factors are often overlooked in our society, and it’s essential to understand that the struggle to lose weight is not a reflection of a lack of motivation on your part. I recognize your determination and commitment!
Weight loss resistance is essentially the challenge of being unable to lose weight despite earnest efforts. Without addressing the core issues at play, no amount of exercise, calorie counting, dieting, or trendy supplements will lead to sustainable fat loss.
Hormonal Imbalance:
Various factors can disrupt hormone balance, such as stress, blood sugar fluctuations, age, toxin exposure, nutrition, medication, diseases, lack of physical activity or intimacy, unhealthy eating habits, obesity, and menopause. Common hormonal imbalances like insulin resistance, estrogen dominance, high cortisol levels, leptin sensitivity, and low thyroid function can impact the body’s fat-burning abilities, leading to cravings and weight gain.
Digestive Issues:
Problems like gas, bloating, heartburn, irregular bowel movements, food intolerances, yeast overgrowth, and digestive disorders can contribute to weight loss resistance by affecting nutrient absorption and triggering inflammation, which hinders fat burning and promotes unhealthy food cravings.
Lifestyle Factors:
Environmental toxins from pesticides and household products, as well as air pollution, can accumulate in the body’s fat cells, disrupting metabolic processes. Social and work-related influences on eating habits, along with factors like inadequate sleep, high stress levels, and sedentary lifestyle, can also hinder the body’s ability to burn fat effectively.
Mindset:
Our beliefs around food, weight loss, and self-image greatly impact our weight management efforts. Childhood experiences, emotional eating habits, learned behaviors, and societal pressures can subconsciously sabotage weight loss attempts. Addressing these mental barriers is crucial for sustainable progress.
To overcome weight loss resistance, a comprehensive holistic approach is necessary. By identifying and addressing these multifaceted factors, individuals can break free from the cycle of frustration and achieve long-term weight loss success.
Holistic Healing to Rebalance the Body
Weight loss has been advertised to eat less & workout more. That misleading advice is what has led to poor metabolisms and relationship with food & eating habits. There is so much more to weight loss; in fact, most women will have tried 20+ diets by the time they are 40. If they were somewhat successful with some short term weight loss, they ended up putting the weight back on.
Most diets put strain on the endocrine system (our hormones) and lead to metabolism slow downs. Instead, I focus on an holistic approach after we discover your hormone imbalances so you can finally gain control over your weight & feel your best.
Support for Women Facing Hormonal Issues in Kelowna
Holistic healing covers much more then just diet & exercise. We will take a look at the entire picture to properly heal your body.
You don’t have time or the energy for complicated meal plans and don’t even want to think about trying another diet or skinny tea. You survive off of coffee throughout the day and wine at night. You feel like you are on repeat and are ready for a permanent change but don’t even know where to start.
It’s time to find balance in the body again by, so you can gain control over your weight for good. Let’s get to the root cause of the problem and start to balance your hormones. You will start to learn about your body and why you feel the way you do. Rather than prescribing more of what has proven ineffective, we delve deeper into potential metabolic, hormonal, nutritional, toxic, digestive, or physiological imbalances. No more fad diets, trendy skinny tea or shake programs. Instead, new healthy patterns for lifetime results of weight control & balanced hormones.
