Quick v safe wt loss: Weight gain typically doesn't happen overnight. Yet we expect to lose weight quickly. Bad news! It doesn't happen that way, at least not safely. If you want to change your weight & body composition, stick to basics, eg healthy nutrition & regular physical activity, plus enough sleep. Sweating buckets is a good measure of effort, assuming you're healthy. But you have to stick with it! Don't give up

See below: In order to answer your question I need to know what you consider eating healthy. Some people think their eating healthy and they are not. If you go to our webpage www.weighstation.net you can asked our dietitian Tricia to give me some insight. Many people are carbohydrate intolerant and insulin resistant. These folks have a difficult time losing weight no matter how much they exercise. Please consult your doctor for further evaluation of your problem. There's lots reasons you don't lose weight.

NeedToVetYourSweat: This is a very common problem. We've probably all gone through it. First you need to know your body composition, you may be losing fat but gaining muscle. It's good that you're sweating, but are you also on a diet too low in calories, or other eating habits that can keep you at a plateau? It's complicated; you'll need to do some research. Google your question, there's a lot of info out there
