What Most Programs Miss About Weight Loss

Most weight loss programs focus on surface-level solutions: eat less, move more, repeat. But if you've tried that and still struggled, you're not alone—and you're not doing anything wrong. The truth is, weight gain and obesity are complex medical conditions that deserve to be approached with the same depth, nuance, and level of clinical support as other serious health challenges. From hormones and medications to environment and emotional health, there are real, science-backed reasons why lasting weight loss is so difficult. This page breaks down the five most overlooked factors so you can finally understand what your body has been trying to tell you—and why it’s not your fault.

What makes us Different ?

Our weight loss program at Mountain West Medical Spa is designed to treat the whole person, not just the number on the scale. When assessing a new patient, we take a deep dive into five critical areas that impact weight: genetics, hormones, environment, medications, and behavioral health. By understanding each individual’s unique story—including any underlying medical conditions, emotional triggers, or lifestyle barriers—we’re able to create a customized plan that’s realistic, sustainable, and rooted in compassion.

The 5 Areas That Could Be Affecting Your Weight

If you’ve been struggling with weight—despite your best efforts—there’s a reason. In fact, there are often several. Modern research has identified five key areas that can significantly impact your ability to lose weight or maintain progress: genetics, hormonal changes, environmental factors, medications, and emotional or behavioral patterns. Understanding which of these factors are at play in your life is the first step toward creating a plan that actually works—and finally gives your body the support it needs to respond.

  • Hormones are powerful messengers in the body, and when they shift, your weight can too. Life stages like perimenopause, menopause, postpartum, or conditions like thyroid dysfunction or PCOS can all make weight loss feel nearly impossible—no matter how hard you’re trying. These are medical issues, not character flaws. Addressing hormonal balance is often a crucial part of successful, sustainable weight care.

  • Your daily surroundings can either support or sabotage your health goals. Things like high stress, poor sleep, demanding schedules, lack of access to healthy food, or limited time for exercise all add up. These factors are often invisible from the outside—but they matter. A thoughtful, realistic approach to weight loss has to take your environment into account and work with your life, not against it.

  • Sometimes the very medications keeping us healthy can have side effects that include weight gain or difficulty losing weight. This is common with antidepressants, insulin, steroids, and some hormone-based treatments. That doesn’t mean you need to stop taking them—instead, it means we need to support your body in a different way, with care plans designed to work alongside your medication, not in spite of it.

  • Weight is deeply connected to mental and emotional health. Stress eating, binge-restrict cycles, poor sleep, trauma, and even how you talk to yourself can all impact your relationship with food and your body. These patterns are often learned as a way to cope—not because something is “wrong” with you. When emotional and behavioral health are included in your care, real transformation becomes possible.
