Today we're going to cover some of the basics of fat burning—fat burning 101. When dealing with fat burning, you're really dealing with hormones. 

You have fat making hormones and fat-burning hormones. 

Fat-making hormones:

1. Cortisol 
This comes from stress. Acupressure techniques may help. 

2. Insulin 
Insulin is triggered by sugar. In the presence of insulin, you can't burn fat. 

3. Estrogen
High estrogen can actually stop your ability to burn fat. 

These hormones—especially cortisol and insulin, can keep you from tapping into fat-burning. If you're craving sweets, you're not sleeping, and you're tired—you're not burning fat. If you're trying to lose weight, it may be more beneficial to focus on lowering these hormones rather than triggering the fat-burning hormones.
