What causes weight loss plateau?

Oh god, the weight loss plateau is SO frustrating, I totally understand. It feels like all your hard work is going to waste and it can really mess with your head. Don't feel bad if you're struggling with it, it's a common thing!

Oh, this is something I'm worried about as I just started my weight loss journey. Does it happen to everyone, or only after losing a lot of weight? I hope I don't get stuck like that.

I heard sometimes it happens when your body gets too used to a routine. Maybe try eating a bit more for a day or two (a 'refeed' day, not a cheat day!) or changing up your exercises. Also, stress and sleep play a big role in weight loss, so check those too!

Plateaus are normal. Your body adapts. You need to either decrease calories further, increase activity, or change the type of activity. Also, don't forget muscle gain might be hiding fat loss, so measure inches too, not just weight.

Yaar, weight loss plateau is the worst! Actually, sometimes you need to shock your body a bit. Like, if you're doing cardio, maybe try strength training for a week? Or vice-versa. Even a small change can sometimes kickstart things again, no?

Sometimes our body needs a little reset. Try drinking more water, increasing your fiber intake with more fruits and veggies. Also, make sure you are sleeping enough. If nothing works for a long time, maybe consult a good dietician or doctor to see if there's any underlying issue.
