Do not Fret Weight Loss Is Just Ahead

You’re eating healthy and exercising a couple times each week, but despite losing weight steadily over the first few months, you’ve watched your losing streak grind to a halt. When you reach a weight loss plateau, you may no longer lose any weight despite the fact that you are following the same eating routine and fitness regimen that allowed for your initial weight loss. Sticking to a restrictive eating plan every day (day after day) can be too challenging and somewhat unrealistic for many people. Some researchers believe most dieters no longer adhere to the plan rather than hit a weight loss plateau. When you reduce calorie consumption too much, you will see huge benefits early on. However, as your body adapts to a lack of food, it may slow the burning of stored fat.

• Watch What You Eat & Drink - Contrary to what you might think, it is more important for you to watch what you eat and drink that it is to exercise more when you are trying to lose weight. In fact, it is much easier to eat less than it is to burn more calories in the gym.
• Get a Good Night’s Sleep - Adjust your schedule to go to bed earlier. A good night’s sleep will recharge your battery and when you are awake for longer, you are more prone to get the midnight munchies.
• Consume More Fiber - On average, Americans consume about half of the recommended intake of daily fiber. Unfortunately, dieters following highly restrictive low-carb diets may be eating even less.
• Keep Your Eyes on the Prize - Each weight loss plateau can be a great opportunity for you to re-evaluate your short-term and long-term goals. So, be more introspective as you reach each new phase.

Paying close attention to dietary issues, while increasing exercise intensity may challenge your body and allow it to burn more energy to get past a plateau.
