A number of congenital and acquired conditions can lead to excess weight, but in most cases, the primary cause is an unhealthy lifestyle.

There are several contributing factors:

1. Eating on the Run

People who eat quickly inevitably eat more. This happens because the brain’s hunger center does not have enough time to register fullness—the food reaches the stomach too quickly for proper signaling.
Tip: When eating, focus on chewing thoroughly. Try to reduce potatoes, chips, white bread and sandwiches in your diet.

2. Insomnia

Sleeping less than seven hours a night or struggling with chronic insomnia raises blood glucose levels, which increases insulin and promotes excess fat storage. This is the body’s natural reaction to stress.
Tip: Work on improving sleep hygiene. Go to bed at the same time every night. Aim for eight hours of sleep.

3. Only Exercise Is Not Enough

You can exercise intensely every day and still gain weight. It all depends on caloric balance. If the calories burned during exercise are significantly less than the calories consumed through food, weight gain is inevitable.

4. Processed Foods

Processed products are typically high in calories and fat. For example, store-bought cutlets often contain more breading and fat than meat.

Important Note

Diet and exercise only reduce overall body weight. Unevenly distributed fat (especially after weight loss) cannot be removed by diet and exercise alone. For this, modern aesthetic medicine offers a wide range of hardware-based and non-hardware body-contouring methods.
