In this video, I'm going to cover the five reasons why you aren't losing weight when fasting. I'm not talking about intermittent fasting. I'm talking about fasting for a longer period of time. 

If you're doing intermittent fasting and keto, and you're not losing weight, it may be because:
• You're consuming too many carbs (you may need to go down to 10g or less per day) 
• You're eating too frequently
• You're consuming too much fat 

But let's say you're fasting for a longer period of time, like 2-3 days, and you still haven't lost weight. Why could this happen? 

Fasting with no weight loss could be caused by:
1. A very slow metabolism
2. Constipation 
3. Stress (high cortisol)
4. Not sleeping 
5. Water retention 

What you could do:
• Take nutrients that help with insulin resistance (electrolytes, B vitamins, trace minerals, and vitamin D)
• Take bile salts 3 times per day 
• Increase sleep and decrease stress 
• Give it more time
