Weight Loss Plateau

Did you know eating too low calorie for too long can stall your weight loss goals? Eating in deficit for an extended length of time your body goes into starvation mode, slowing your metabolism and burning as few as calories as possible in attempt to save energy. We cannot eat in deficit forever. If we train our body to eat 1400 calories and never take diet breaks or slowly increase our calories then 1400 calories will become our new maintenance calorie level and anything more than that will equal weight gain. Maybe it’s just me but I don’t want to eat 1400 calories for my entire life. I eat about 50% more than that now and I’m still pushing the envelope to get more while still maintaining weight.  Make sure you are educated or have the guidance of someone when eating in deficit. More and more I am hearing about fad diets (one very common right now) that have ruined metabolisms. Be careful about how you choose to lose weight. The most sustainable weight lose is one that is slow and controlled. The goal is for this to become a lifestyle that you can live with long term. Questions? Talk to me..
