Exercising and dieting are important for weight loss, but they may not always be enough.

One possible reason for not losing weight despite exercising and dieting is a slow metabolism.

Metabolism refers to the chemical processes that occur in the body to maintain life.

Some people may have a slower metabolism due to genetics, age, or other factors.

Hormones can also play a role in weight loss and metabolism.

Conditions like hypothyroidism can slow down metabolism and make weight loss more difficult.

Stress, lack of sleep, and certain medications can also affect hormones and metabolism.
