Default Re: Article: 5 Reasons You\'re Not Losing Weight

Good advise in this article. Most people trying to lose weight cut to many calories! It is possible to get fatter by eating less! If you cut your daily caloric intake by more than 10% or so your body will think you're trying to starve it and slow the rate it burns calories.

You need to determine the amount of calories you need to maintain current weight and reduce it no more than 10%. Another trick is to cycle the calories. Say you need 3000 to maintain, eat 2700 1 day, 3100 the next day, 2800 next day 3000 the next day then 2700 ect.

Hope this helps
