I work out several times a week and eat a healthy diet but still can lose weight. What could be the problem?
There could be a couple of answers to this question. Working out too much can actually work against you and stop you from seeing results. You could also be eating too few calories—if you are active and you exercise regularly, then you need a certain number of calories to compensate for your energy expenditure. If you eat too few calories, then your metabolism will actually slow down. Your body can go into starvation mode and then it will be hanging on to every calorie and you will not be able to lose weight. Change your exercise program instead of increasing your workouts. Add weight training if you’re not already doing it—that will increase your metabolism and make it easier to lose unwanted fat.
