Weight loss doesn't have to be a struggle. Your hypothalamus, that regulates your body fat stores, does not want you to be carrying around excess fat. However leptin resistance may lead to a breakdown in weight regulation and may help to explain the current obesity epidemic. Loosing weight involves reversing leptin resistance by addressing insulin resistance and inflammation and that involved cutting out overly processed foods and will also be helped by time restricted eating. Also mentioned are calories in vs calories out, a calorie restricted diet, the protein leverage hypothesis and micronutrient leverage hypothesis.
