Dear
Barb; o mat-
ter what I try, I
;.0
just don't seem
to be able to
lose weight.
Is it more difficult for some
people to lose weight than others?
Thanks, Jack.

r (continued from
1a q time): Dear Jack, As I

.
• discussed last time, if your
Answe
inability to achieve your weight
loss goals goes beyond a simple
failure to adhere to a reasonable
weight loss regime, you may be
suffering from "weight loss resis-
tance."

Various factors that may
contribute to weight loss
resistance:
''''''
• Inappropriate levels/ef-
) ficacy of hormones like
ghrelin, leptin, insulin,
i
glucagon, and cortisol
that play different rolls
in regulating appetite
and blood sugar;
• Genetics—a 2005
Tufts University study
identified a variant in the
perilipin gene that may
break the calorie-intake/body-
weight connection;
• Low metabolism (often blamed)
is most likely not the cause of
weight loss resistance; however,
underlying conditions like hypo-
thyroidism, metabolic syndrome
(a.k.a. "syndrome x"), insuf-
ficient sleep, and other physical
circumstances may be a factor.

Next time: Things you can do to
respond to weight loss resistance.
