Weight gain

Are you gaining weight, despite getting enough movement? tryin all the diets, but still no success …

Why am I gaining weight?

Many women blame themselves for weight gain…
but the truth is, your body isn’t broken — it’s overwhelmed.

When your nervous system is stuck in stress mode, your metabolism slows down, your hormones shift, and your body starts holding onto weight as protection. That can look like:

  • Gaining weight even when you’re eating clean

  • Stubborn belly fat

  • Stress cravings

  • Slower progress in the gym

  • Feeling “inflamed” or swollen

  • Feeling like nothing works anymore

At LOVEHER, we help women rebuild their metabolism, balance stress, and train in a way that finally supports their bodies — not fights them.

If you’re ready for real results, not restriction… we’re here

Nervous system disregulation creates Weight gain

When your nervous system is stuck in sympathetic dominance (fight/flight/freeze), your body shifts into a protective mode that affects metabolism, hormones, and fat storage

Stress-Driven Cortisol Lock

Problem ➜ When the central nervous system is stuck in stress mode, cortisol stays elevated. Your body shifts into “protect and store” physiology, slowing metabolism and increasing fat storage—especially around the midsection.
Symptom ➜ Stubborn belly fat and weight gain even when eating clean or working out consistently.

Nervous System Overdrive

Problem ➜ A chronically activated CNS keeps your body in fight-or-flight. This suppresses digestion, disrupts blood sugar balance, and triggers cravings for fast energy foods.
Symptom ➜ Intense cravings for sugar or carbs during times of stress, followed by bloating and weight fluctuations.

Recovery Breakdown

Problem ➜ A stressed CNS reduces your ability to recover from workouts. Instead of building lean muscle, the body stays inflamed, sore, and hormonally stressed—which stalls fat loss and progress.
Symptom ➜ Working out consistently but seeing slower results, muscle loss, or weight gain.

Metabolic Slowdown Mode

Problem ➜ In a dysregulated nervous system, the body prioritizes survival, not fat loss. Metabolic rate decreases to conserve energy, making weight loss harder even with calorie control.
Symptom ➜ Gaining weight on the same routine that used to help maintain or lose it.

Inflammation Response Trigger

Problem ➜ Chronic stress from a taxed CNS triggers inflammation throughout the body. This increases water retention, slows nutrient absorption, and makes the body more likely to store fat.
Symptom ➜ Feeling “puffy,” swollen, or inflamed, especially around the belly and hips.

Hormonal Disruption Loop

Problem ➜ The CNS communicates directly with your endocrine system. When stress signals are constant, it disrupts sex hormones, thyroid hormones, and hunger hormones like ghrelin and leptin.
Symptom ➜ Feeling hungrier than usual, emotional eating, or never feeling “satisfied,” leading to slow but steady weight gain.

The impact of weight gain

  • ~30 % higher risk of anxiety disorder in people with obesity (and increased further with severe obesity)

  • Women with very high BMI (≥ 35) are up to ~20× more likely to develop type 2 diabetes over 10 years

  • Overweight significantly raises risk of conditions like gallstones, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and heart disease in women

  • 18 % to 55 % increased odds of depression among people living with obesity

  • A study showed that a 40-year-old woman who is obese can lose up to 7.1 years of life expectancy compared with a healthy-weight peer.
