6 Ways to Bust Through Your Weight Loss Plateau

It happens to all of us at some point – the dreaded plateau!

Many of us get so fixated on the number on the scale, and that only makes us frustrated, discouraged, and worst of all STUCK. To move forward, we need to take a step back and change our mindset and focus to move forward. 

If you really think about it, is it more important to lose weight, or to be healthier and feel better? For me, I want to look and feel healthy, not just be thinner, so I know a quick fix is not the answer because I don't just want to lose the weight – I want to keep it off.

There are many reasons for hitting a plateau or getting off to a slower start than we'd like. Everyone is different at the rate they lose weight and where they lose it, and it’s really easy to get discouraged.

  2. Fresh air! When it gets cold outside, its a nice time to stay indoors, sit at the fire and often have some wine and snacks. This is also one of my favorite things to do, but I like to make sure I deserve it in the evening by getting outside for fresh air during the day. A bit of sunshine, fresh air and Vitamin D, and energy levels rise instantly!
