Losing weight after 40 can be quite the challenge
Everyone who has passed the big 40 will probably be familiar with this problem: unwanted weight gain. Everything starts to become a little softer and hang a little lower when you get older and you gain entire kilograms without knowing where they came from. If you are 40 plus and want to lose some weight, the tips we’ve got for you today might be able to help you out.
It can be difficult to lose weight after 40 but it doesn’t have to be impossible!
Metabolism
Clothes have suddenly become too small and unwanted rolls and ridges are appearing everywhere. For most people in their forties (or older) this is caused by a slowed-down metabolism and simply less exercise. For women, hormones are an additional culprit; the weight gain often starts in the years before the menopause. The fat/muscle ratio changes unfavourably and if you have fewer muscles you will also burn less fat. In other words: you end up in a kind of downward spiral.
Don’t give up
It’s a fact that it becomes harder to lose weight when we get older, but this doesn’t mean you should throw in the towel entirely! There are a few tips that might help you get rid of those unwanted pounds. We can’t guarantee instant success, but these tips are definitely worth a try.
