Depression:<\/strong> Depression affects your weight as well. It increases\u00a0cortisol\u00a0levels (stress hormone) which increases\u00a0adrenaline\u00a0levels in your body which in return increases\u00a0insulin\u00a0levels. The high level of insulin in the blood\u00a0causes hunger\u00a0and increases appetite and will force your liver to make extra fat from the extra calories you consume. Diet food:<\/strong> This sounds really weird, right? Unfortunately,\u00a0it is true. Studies have shown that people who eat diet food gain more weight than people who do not. The reason for this is that when you want to buy a fat-free or a diet product remember that\u00a0fat- free does not\u00a0mean calorie-free. What people normally do is buy a fat-free biscuit and two minutes later the box is empty. When consuming a diet product, moderate your intake, taking in too many calories will only cause you weight gain.

The main reason for a drop down in testosterone its level is belly fat\u00a0in men which increases with age. When testosterone level is low, the muscles in the body cannot be built; the metabolism will drop\u00a0causing a rapid weight gain. Men should get rid of this fat belly by following a proper diet and exercising more. <\/p>\n
\nFollowing very strict or weird diets (fad diets): Let your diet be balanced and varied, you cannot just cut down the carbohydrates, protein or fat intake, because you decided that your body does not burn one of these.
\nEat everything in moderation you need\u00a0carbs\u00a0for energy,\u00a0proteins\u00a0for building muscles and for tissue regeneration,\u00a0fat\u00a0for brain development. Do not starve yourself, you will lose weight. If you do that your hormones levels will drop and your metabolism will go down<\/p>\n
