Why Your Hormones Could Be the Reason You’re Not Seeing Results from Diet & Exercise

You’re eating right. You’re exercising. You’re doing everything they say—and still, the scale won’t budge. If this sounds familiar, it might not be your fault—it might be your hormones.

At Coastal Health & Vitality in Richmond Hill, GA, we help people overcome weight loss resistance caused by hormone imbalance. If your body is out of sync, it won’t let go of weight—no matter what your habits look like.

Hormones That Impact Fat Loss & Metabolism:

⚖️ Insulin

If your body is resistant to insulin, it stores fat instead of burning it—even with a healthy diet.

⚖️ Cortisol

Chronic stress keeps cortisol high, which signals your body to store fat—especially around the midsection.

⚖️ Estrogen

Estrogen dominance makes it harder to lose weight and easier to hold onto water and fat.

⚖️ Progesterone

Low levels of this hormone make you more sensitive to stress, which also affects your ability to burn fat.

⚖️ Thyroid Hormones

Your thyroid is your metabolic engine. Even a minor slowdown (hypothyroidism) can lead to fatigue, sluggish metabolism, and weight gain.

⚖️ Testosterone

Low testosterone in men and women leads to muscle loss, poor recovery, and fat gain.

Signs Your Weight Struggles May Be Hormonal:

  • You’re doing all the “right” things and not seeing results
