All of the 180 Challenge participants have been working incredibly hard to achieve their weight loss goals. While cleansing can help the body naturally release weight, imbalanced hormones, an under-active thyroid, dehydration, or slow metabolism can impair the body’s ability to do so. Remember that the each person loses weight differently. One person may see a number change reflected on the scale, while another person may lose inches (not pounds) and need some new clothes because the old ones don’t fit. Both of these indicate that the body has transformed, and that’s something to be proud of.
There’s no denying that looking at the scale and seeing a lower number than before is satisfying. It sparks joy in your heart, provided weight loss is your goal, because reaching your weight loss goal boosts your confidence and makes you feel like you are doing something right. Then you want to continue with what you’ve done to keep the weight off and stay healthy.
