Weight loss: When diet and exercise do not produce the desired results there could be other factors at play. Even with the use of stimulants results can be disappointing. Hormonal factors often play a major role in one's ability to lose weight or not. Weight is ultimately controlled by the hypothalumus. Try increasing the intensity of your workout. If still no results see your doctor for possible testing.
