1 . Reasons you're not losing weight
Trying to get rid of the pounds but find it useless? A report found that 38 percent of adults in England are obese and 46 percent are overweight. So, why do we find it so hard?
•Your portion sizes are too big.
Portion sizes have expanded over history. Sixty years ago food was more expensive and more scarce and portions were smaller.
•You're not sleeping enough.
When dieters have less sleep over a period of time, they long for sugary or high calorie snacks to "wake up". However, it's not the whole story.
•You're disorganized with the three meals.
Breakfast is "the most important meal of the day" yet more than half of Britons skip it. Actually, it aids your weight loss, making you feel full- until lunchtime without any snacks.
