4 Reasons you can’t lose weight (or gain back what you lose)

  I just read an article written by an MD talking about weight loss.  She mentioned that according to a recent poll, 72 percent of Americans want to lose weight, aiming for an average of about 40 pounds.    What makes this challenging, she states, is that only 14 percent of people who have lost weight have been able to keep it off for more than five years.  But then the rest of the article suggests...

What matters more is the type of fat you’re carrying and where it’s located. Here’s what I mean: Fat types and areas of accumulation Your body has two types of fat—subcutaneous and visceral.

It’s a fact—carb addiction is real! (Here’s how to break free)

It’s a fact—carb addiction is real! (Here’s how to break free)

  I once worked with someone who absolutely could not say no to starchy carbs and sugars. She always had a box of some kind of chip or cracker in her desk at work. She used to sneak to the little store across the street from the office and buy cookies or candy after lunch.
