I have been struggling with fat loss for a long time.
Over the years, I have learned that most people who want to lose fat end up failing because they don't use a method that works.
And the reason is not because they're stupid or masochistic, but because most people just don't know what works. They believe the myth that fat loss is obtained by eating fewer calories than you burn, and never realise it's a metabolic imbalance that's actually keeping them fat.
No matter how hard you exercise or how little you eat, it's impossible to burn fat while hormones circulate in your body that tell fat cells that they are not allowed to release their stored fat. To be honest, it took me too many years to learn this lesson too.
And then there's the vicious circle of not seeing results (since the method won't work) and losing motivation and giving up.
But don't worry: we've all been there. And we can get out of it.
