4 Reasons Why You Are Gaining Weight Day By Day

No, we are not here to discuss and tell you about the obvious causes of weight gain like consuming fatty foods and sweets or drinking alcohol. But there are many ladies out there, who count their calories, lead an active lifestyle and still keep on gaining weight. Are you one of them? So let us take a look at some of the possible reasons why you are getting fatter and fatter.

1. Eating too less

You should know that all kinds of extremities are bad for your health. Sometimes eating too little is even worse than eating too much. When you starve yourself, it gives your mind a signal to start storing calories in fat deposits for a rainy day, so to say. This way the body prevents future starvation or death. So check up your ration and make sure you are not eating insufficient amount of food. Supply your body with all the vitamins, minerals and micro elements that it needs to function properly. Eat regular amount of food, which also has carbohydrates and fats in it. This way you can prevent one of the causes of weight gain.

2. Insufficient sleep

Getting an inadequate amount of sleep might represent another cause for gaining weight. One way in which lack of sleep affects you is by making you feel tired and bringing down your energy level. Thus, you might start feeling hungry more often. This is how your body tries to compensate for the lack of rest. You can also start storing calories in fat deposits faster, if you do not sleep enough. The ideal amount of time that a person should sleep is 8-10 hours. But here the quality of your sleep matters more than the quantity of sleep you get. Sometimes 20 minutes of sleep may provide more relaxation to your body than an entire night, where you might wake up often or feel strained throughout your sleep.
