RE: WEIGHT LOSS PLATEAU

Your body loses weight in cycles. The initial weight loss is mostly water. The amount you lose is based on the level of water retention and your starting weight. Also, healthy food doesn't hang around in your system as long, so weight loss will be facilitated by a healthy diet.

Once you hit a long stretch with no loss HANG IN THERE. After about 4-6 weeks - I know, yuck, a long time - you'll suddenly drop a ton of weight in 1 week. Sounds weird but beleive me, it's woth the wait! That week will be your motivation kicker for the next round.

Keep it up and DON'T GET DISCOURAGED. You can't change biology...
