Can psychiatric medications really lead to dramatic weight gain? Does your socioeconomic status really determine if you’ll end up obese? And is there anything you can do about weight loss plateaus? Join us for an eye-opening episode of the Pound of Cure Weight Loss Podcast.
In today’s episode, we touch on a few key topics related to weight gain and weight loss challenges. First off, we dive into the role of medications that can actually cause weight gain. Things like antidepressants, mood stabilizers, and even birth control can seriously impact your body’s ability to maintain or lose weight. It’s not uncommon for people to be doing everything right with their diet and exercise, but these medications still push their weight up.
We also talk about frustrating weight loss plateaus. Everyone hits them at some point, and the key is not to freak out. Reverting back to only drinking protein shakes, is not going to solve the problem. Small changes—like adjusting your veggie intake or swapping out processed foods for whole foods—can make a big difference. And remember, plateaus are totally normal, so don’t feel like you're failing.
Finally, we touch on how socioeconomic status plays a major role in weight gain. People from lower-income backgrounds often have a harder time losing weight, partly because of limited access to healthier foods. Living in areas where fresh produce is hard to come by (hello, food deserts!) makes sticking to a healthy lifestyle that much tougher.
So, it’s a mix of factors outside your control like medications, hitting plateaus, and even where you live that can affect your weight loss journey.
