Why Can't I Lose Weight - Your Answers FinallyThis is one of the most commonly asked questions in the health industry. Why can't I lose weight? Well there are three very simple answers to this question.
If you think you are doing everything possible to lose weight, you probably are, but you probably just aren't doing it correctly. See I see tons of people in the gym that come in there eating donuts and high calorie muffins that they think are healthy. I see people churning and burning on the treadmills and elypticals for hours when... those machines are good for well, nothing.
I see people shopping for foods that are cleverly packaged to trick dieters into believing they are healthy choices for their weight loss. The amazing thing is that they don't work at all, but people still buy them! I don't get it!! I wish I could sell something that didn't work and people buy it. I'd be a millionaire.
The reason you keep asking why can't I lose weight over and over is because you just aren't as educated about weight loss as you think.
Treadmills and elypticals do nothing but burn empty calories. After you're done on them, you're done burning calories. There is no muscle breakdown and no muscle being built.
To lose a significant amount of weight you need to be lifting weights and breaking down muscle tissue. This will make your body burn more calories naturally. One because it has to repair this tissue, and two, because it will have more muscle afterwards, which burns A TON more calories than fat does.
If you want to stop asking the question, why can't I lose weight, then you need to eat properly, and exercise properly.
