In today's episode I want to share with you how you can be active and doing everything you right yet still not losing any weight. 

There are two main reasons as to why you may not be losing weight even though you are working out on a regular basis and even getting extra steps and extra walks in:

1. You are doing the same thing everyday and it's building muscle memory like a habit and your body doesn't have to work as hard to do that activity anymore; therefore it is not expending here as much energy
2. You may not eating enough for the amount of energy you are actually spending doing those activities

Action Steps:

1. Take the next couple days to change up one of your regular daily habits like how you get dressed or brush your teeth

• On the first day pay attention to the order in which you do the activity
• On the second day try changing that order and see how it makes your body feel

2. Take a look at your fitness routine and nutrition 

• Do you need to make changes to your workout routine or your meal plan?
