Have you been dieting for years with no luck? By now you're probably blaming anything and everything for your lack of weight-loss -- your job, your metabolism, your spouse, etc -- anything as long as you don't have to look inwards and place the blame on yourself to realize that you're not giving it your all.

WebMD has put together a list of the top reasons you're not losing weight:

• You eat too fast
• You skip meals
• You drink too many calories and think they don't count because they're liquid
• Your portions are too big
• You underestimate the calorie value of add-ons like salad dressing and sauce.
  
• You engage in 'mindless eating'

I myself am guilty of a few of these. If you are too, don't beat yourself up, but do look at changing these habits ... doing so might mean you're finally able to loss weight successfully.
