Why can't I keep my weight?
Hormone imbalance is one of the most common causes of weight loss difficulties, though there are other explanations as well.

Some of the following hormonal diseases include the potential to cause weight gain:
Insulin
Cortisol
Estrogen
Testosterone
Leptin
Ghrelin
Our mental health can also have a big impact on how much weight we gain or lose.
