Plateau's are part of healthy and normal weight loss...chart your weight loss and make small changes in anticipation of them. Sometimes it's just avoiding salt, sugar or even something as simple as just drinking a little extra water...point is, it is normal, it is healthy and it is part of your weight loss journey! The more you chart, and in turn learn to anticipate them, the easier it is to overcome the plateau...it may be a matter of weeks or a month BUT it does pass...stay positive!!!

    I agree 100%. It also helps to track other things too, like energy or sleep patterns. That was how I knew I was less motivated at some points of the month than others, and knew that the motivation would come back if I just stuck with it!
