Why is weight loss so challenging?
Successfully losing weight requires maintaining a calorie deficit, which means burning more calories than you consume. However, sustaining this deficit over time can be incredibly difficult because of your body’s natural biological responses. As you restrict calories, your metabolism slows down, hunger increases, and energy expenditure decreases. These survival mechanisms, while once essential for survival, can now make it hard to achieve long-term weight loss, often leading to the frustrating cycle of losing and regaining weight.
