Weight control: what to do during a plateau?

Faced with the plateau effect, when weight stops moving despite all efforts, it is necessary to reevaluate your usual approaches to nutrition. For weight control during this period, it is especially helpful to carefully read the labels on food packaging. Pay attention to hidden sugars, excess salt, as well as the amount of fiber and protein per 100 grams of the product.

Often during a plateau, a person imperceptibly starts consuming more calories from sauces, drinks, or healthy yet very high-calorie snacks. Comparing products using the nutritional value table will help identify trap foods and adjust your daily calorie intake.

In addition to analyzing labels, review your overall daily activity and recovery quality. Add variety to your physical exercise, improve sleep quality, and make sure you drink enough pure water to support all metabolic processes in the body.
