Saw this article today on Livestrong.com about hitting the weight loss plateau. It was really good at explaining how you can hack yourself when the initial weight loss stops in your diet.
Weight loss is typically a long process. Most people lose the greatest amount of weight at the beginning of their regimen, due to the many changes their bodies go through. However, weight loss plateaus are also common. This occurs when you do not gain weight back but you are not losing any more weight, either. You can overcome weight loss plateaus in various ways so you can get back on track to your ultimate goals.
