You’ve been trying to get rid of it, but that fat won’t go away! You might even call it stubborn. That’s because it is!

There’s nothing wrong with you. Stubborn fat is real. And it’s hard to get rid of it!

All The Right Things

We know you’ve done all the right things to lose weight. You’ve:

  • Changed your diet
  • Gotten into the rhythm of aerobic exercise and weight training
  • Probably tried everything else you can think of

But, there are still some areas on your body where the fat won’t go away!

  • Butt
  • Thighs
  • Love handles
  • Belly area

That’s okay. We’re here to help. Let’s start by understanding why that fat is so stubborn.

The Fat-Burning Process

Lipolysis is a process that burns fats. It’s a pretty interesting process, but we won’t go into here. What you need to know for this blog post is the fat-burning process consists of three stages:

  1. Fat is released from a fat cell.
  2. The fat is brought to another cell to be burned.
  3. The fat gets inside a cell and is burned (lipid oxidation).

The process is pretty straightforward. And, you can manipulate it through diet and exercise until you factor in stubborn fat.

Stubborn fat is physiologically different from other fat, which means your body releases and burns it differently. Again, we won’t get too science-y here.

Basically, these physiological differences slow down the fat burning process, making stubborn fat very difficult to get rid of.

Hormone Imbalance Often Causes Stubborn Fat 

Hormones impact stubborn fat more than other types of fat. This may be one reason you have not been successful in taking off stubborn fat with diet and exercise alone.

The following all contribute to the fat creating and fat burning process.

  • Insulin
  • Catecholamines
  • Thyroid
  • Cortisol
  • Sex hormones

More and more research is pointing to hormone imbalance as a possible cause for weight gain or the inability to take the weight off.

If hormone imbalance is the cause, it won’t matter how many weights you lift or how many keto diets you go on. You’ll need some extra help in the form of hormone replacement therapy (HRT).
