Other possibilities leading to weight gain include: - Taking too much food for dinner
- Eating tidbits after dinner.
- Drinking too much alcohol, sweetened drinks, like Coke, coffee especially after dinner
- Skipping breakfast - Sleeping late
- Too much stress - Do not exercise regularly
- Eating unhealthy food especially those with high calories
- Never detox the body regularly (mean never take detox food or have detox exercises).
