Why isn't my weight going down?

Experiencing a plateau where the scale seems stuck is a common frustration in weight loss, often leading to confusion about effort versus results. This stall isn't always a true metabolic plateau, but frequently stems from overlooked daily factors. 

For instance, tiny, unnoticed calorie sources like extra condiments, drinks, or inaccurate portion estimates can subtly erase your deficit. Beyond calories, inconsistent application of healthy eating and activity habits, like a few off-track meals or missed workouts, can significantly impede progress.

Furthermore, daily body weight fluctuates naturally due to changes in hydration levels, varying salt intake affecting water retention, and even hormonal shifts, particularly for women. These normal physiological variations can mask genuine fat loss, making it appear as though no progress is being made.

Our bodies are complex, and weight loss is rarely linear. A recent CSIRO study, "Debunking weight loss plateaus: Science says you don't have to lose to win," highlights that successful long-term weight loss journeys often include periods of plateaus and even small regains, emphasizing that persistence is key.
