Unfortunately there is no quick fix. If we look to the biology of women, there is a distinct predisposition for the female to carry more body fat than the male. By nature, a woman's body is developed to protect her and a potential fetus. As a result of this genetic coding, women have more enzymes for storing fat and fewer enzymes for burning fat. In addition to this, the hormone estrogen actually actives fat storing enzymes and causes them to multiply.
Women have a tendency to become preoccupied by the numbers on a scale.
Not the goal most women would hope for. The best indicator as to whether or not you need to lose body fat is by measuring it. By assigning a number to your fat level, you can accurately gauge where you are at and where you need to go in order to achieve your goals. A road map always makes it easier to get where you are going, and a fat scale or fat caliper is like a compass- it tells you where you are and indicates how to proceed. These weight loss tool are relatively inexpensive.
