Why Am I Not Losing Weight? Common Barriers to Progress
Weight change is not simply a matter of willpower. Sleep, activity, medicines, stress, portions and some health conditions may influence progress.
Key symptoms or background
Look at changes across weeks rather than daily fluctuations. Very restrictive diets can be difficult to maintain and risky in certain conditions.
What can you do?
Observe eating patterns without blame and set sustainable food and movement goals. Unexplained weight changes or excessive thirst deserve medical and dietetic advice.
Before talking to a specialist
Record three days of meals, health conditions, medicines and goals. Personalised advice is particularly important during pregnancy or with chronic illness.
Frequently asked question
Does one eating plan suit everyone?
No. Age, medicines, health conditions, goals and preferences all matter.
