What is a Weight Loss Plateau?

A weight loss plateau is telling you that your body has done all it can to lose weight under the current conditions. Once your scale stops moving, it's time to make a few decisions. You can decide if the weight you are at is okay for you, or if you want to lose more.

If you are happy with your weight, continuing the same calorie intake and exercise plan will allow you to maintain your results. To lose more weight, you will have to:

  • Decrease your calories  further. If you have already decreased your calories, don't drop below 1,200 per day or you may actually gain weight.
  • Increase your activity level. Consider increasing your exercise time or intensity, or trying a new exercise routine. Instead of walking, try swimming to work out new muscle groups or join a yoga or aerobics class for a change.
  • Take a look at your habits. Are you eating late at night, or still not eating on a regular schedule? Have you allowed yourself larger portions or a shorter exercise time lately? Try keeping a journal of your food and exercise routines so you can look back and adjust what isn't working.

How to Get Past a Weight Loss Plateau?

Remember not to let your weight loss plateaus keep you down. If you make changes and still aren't seeing your numbers drop, talk with a medical weight loss provider or nutritionist . The weight loss goals you are using may not be realistic and need adjustment.

Even small drops in weight can have a large impact on your overall health and lower your risk for complications like diabeteshigh blood pressure  and heart disease. No matter what, keep up with your lifestyle changes. Going back to poor eating habits and a sedentary lifestyle will undo your hard work and pack the pounds back on.
