[Anonymous]

i excersise every day and eat pretty healthy and I almost never indulge and when I do its something small I also drink a lot of water but it seems like once I finish working out and then later eat something all the weight comes right back on and its so frustrating I don't know what to do!

There are a LOT of things that are going to affect your health and weight. The best that you can do IS the best that you can do.

What I mean to say is, the greatest impact that you can have on your body, is the greatest attempt you will give. Do not worry too much about what you achieve, worry more about how well you are treating your body and that you are putting in the effort to get what you desire.

You do realize that your gut flora is what enables you to digest like, half your food... then there is the production of vitamins that they give you.

And your body creates vitamins via sun exposure.

Sleeping to little or much will alter the chemicals that your brain spews out to the rest of your body. Stress does the exact same thing.

Exercise diet and genetics are not the only factors makachuk.

Anything that changes the chemistry of an organism will affect said organism. IE is a factor.

portion size and specific foods you eat are around 80% of the weight loss. exercise rises your metabolism so you can end up eating more to compensate - this is why you see those people in a gym who work out really hard but keep all their fat

how much do you eat? you might be taking in more calories than you need.

it's not ''no sh*t'' because she could be eating the right things,in the wrong amounts,so she'd think she was being healthy but is actually taking in too many calories. and she could have a health issue that doesn't allow her to lose weight.

like hypothyroidism

If you do the same thing nonstop, your body will become used to it, and you won't lose any weight at all. So try splurging like one time a week. And make the day a random day you do it. That'll shock your body. Change up your workouts you do too.

Actually it works for my weightloss. So it's not bullsh*t.
