For all the women out there who are trying really hard, but for some reason can't seem to shed any pounds (or, worse yet, still continue to put on more pounds!), there may be some other factors at play.

WebMD recently listed 5 Surprising Reasons Why You're Gaining Weight. Each represents a possible explanation for why the numbers on the scale keep rising, in spite of your concerted effort to eat right and exercise.

Could any -- or all -- of these possibly be what's holding you back?

1. You're Not Sleeping Enough.

2. You're Stressed Out

3. You're Taking Certain Medications That May Cause Weight Gain

4. You Have a Medical Condition That Can Contribute to Weight Gain

5. You're Going Through Menopause

For a more detailed explanation of each of these potential reasons why your efforts may be falling short, read the whole WebMD article by clicking here.
