What if I Reach a Plateau? Module 12


If you reach a plateau in weight loss, it’s important to normalize it—weight loss doesn’t happen in a straight line, and fluctuations are a natural part of the process. Sometimes what seems like a plateau is just temporary water retention or balance. Adapting your routine and staying patient are key.

Metabolism Strategies

  • Adjust Meal Timing: A 12-hour fast (e.g., stop eating after dinner and resume with breakfast) can help reset hunger cues and support metabolic balance.
  • Calorie Cycling: Slightly increase your calorie intake for a short period, then reduce it to re-stimulate your metabolism.

Exercise Adjustments

  • Vary Your Routine: Challenge your body by introducing new exercises, increasing intensity, or blending strength and cardio workouts.
  • Increase Daily Movement: Add more non-exercise activities like walking or stretching to avoid stagnation.

Plateaus are normal, not failures. Adding variability to your routine and giving your body time to adjust can keep progress moving sustainably.
