Have you ever tried to lose weight but felt like they system is working against you? Well, you’re right! The human body actually tries to prevent itself from losing weight by adapting its metabolism – slowing it down – to compensate for the increased activity and decreased intake of food.

Although it may sound counter-intuitive, it actually makes a lot of sense. The human body is highly efficient and it knows that sudden, dramatic weight loss is usually a sign that something is wrong. So, even when weight loss is done the right way, those responses kick into gear.
