You've calculated your deficit. You've been tracking. The scale was moving — and then it stopped. Or maybe it never moved at all. And now you're convinced your body just doesn't respond to a calorie deficit the way it's supposed to.
Here's what I want you to know before we get into it: a calorie deficit is scientifically required for weight loss — no exceptions. But there's a big difference between thinking you're in a deficit and actually being in one. And even when you are, there are specific things that can make it stop working or appear to not be working at all.
After coaching hundreds of women, I've narrowed it down to three main reasons, plus a bonus tip that applies to more women than you'd think.

Perimenopause is everywhere right now — in your Instagram feed, in supplement ads, in wellness content, in the mainstream media.

Please don't tune out when I say this, but a lot of you are doing too much. And it's actually costing you the body you want.
Women go into a calorie deficit and feel miserable. They don't see the results they expected — or they see no results at all. They either give up or white-knuckle through it and still end up frustrated and stuck. And most of the time, it's not that they're not trying hard enough. It's that they're making one or more of the mistakes I'm covering today.
