 Is a Medical Condition Stopping You From Losing Weight?

There are some medical conditions that make it difficult to lose weight, I actually have one of them. The most common medical conditions that could hold back or stall weight loss are:

  • Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, PCOS – hormonal imbalance can prevent weight loss from occurring even if you eat very well and exercise regularly.
  • Diabetes – fear of suffering a sharp fall in blood sugar levels stops many diabetes sufferers from working out? 
  • Heart conditions – fear of suffering heart failure stops many with a heart condition from exercising.

The solution?

PCOS

Even if you can’t see the results of your hard work on your scale, you will be fitter and definitely healthier if you exercise regularly. Importantly, at times your body will respond and your weight will fall. You might even notice an improvement in the regularity of your menstrual cycle.

Diabetes

The fear of fluctuations in blood sugar is very real. Before you start on an exercise programme speak to your doctor about what safety measures you can take. One obvious thing you can do is to take a friend along on any long jogs or cycles.

Heart conditions

Just like with the diabetes, speak to your doctor. Having a heart condition doesn’t mean you can’t exercise, quite the contrary, your heart needs some exercise to keep it strong and healthy.

Importantly, some people use their medical condition as an excuse not to bother, I certainly know I’ve done this at times, don’t do that. Take whatever precautions are necessary and get out there.
