When it comes to losing weight, there’s nothing more frustrating than doing everything right and still struggling to shed those stubborn pounds.

What you may not know is that some choices, even ones some “gurus” may call “healthy,” may be subtly sabotaging your success.

Eliminating some of those sneaky mistakes may be the answer to finally reaching your weight loss goals.

Here, are 6 mistakes you need to stop making when trying to lose weight.

It seems so simple: less fat per serving means less fat for you.

However, beware, when processed food brands take out the fat, they tend to pack in the sugar instead—and sugar is the ultimate way to slow down your results.

Better to avoid the processed food section altogether, and go for fresh, whole foods, like baby carrots and hummus, to snack on instead.

Although natural and packed with nutrients, fruit should be treated more like healthy candy than a staple when losing weight.

It contains high levels of fructose, which although natural, still qualifies as a sugar and can certainly be a reason the pounds aren’t coming off quickly.

If you’re serious about the weight-loss game, a smarter alternative to that piece of fruit is a serving of veggies.

Water is a top-notch weight loss buddy for so many reasons: it aids in digestion, reduces appetite, and is sugar and calorie-free.

A common mistake when losing weight is to opt for juice, which is naturally sugary and can even spark your appetite. Even if it’s freshly squeezed, water is always the better option.

And to boot, drinking a glass of ice water burns eight calories!

Nothing against weight training here, but the reason you may not be seeing the results you want at the gym is lack of cardio in your workout.

Weights are great for building muscle, but without at least 15-30 minutes of cardio included to jumpstart fat burning, you may just be building that muscle underneath a layer of fat that’s not going anywhere.

If a cheat meal is part of your weekly routine, it’s never a good idea to go too hard.

Why pack on extra calories you can live without? Every decision to skip that cheeseburger (or maybe just take off the bun) is a step closer to reaching your goal.

One last thing… you should try this 10-second “morning trigger” that burns up to 2 pounds of belly fat per day…

“All this by a 10-second morning trigger?” I asked.

I met an old friend for lunch last month and I was super impressed with how good she looked.

She said, “It’s not so much about the morning trigger, but more about how they help raise your body’s low core temperature to dramatically increase your fat burning metabolism and improve your health and appearance.”

Even though I was skeptical, I’ve been struggling with my weight over the last few years, so I gave it a shot and watched the same video she did.

Well, it’s only a couple weeks later and you know what they say about how “you can’t transform your body overnight”…

They’re right — it actually took me 19 days to lose 24 pounds.

Now it’s my girlfriends asking ME what I’M doing differently
