Understand the platform period
Babies who lose weight will encounter obvious weight loss during the weight loss period, but after a period of time, no matter how hard we try to lose weight, the weight will stagnate (lasting for two weeks or even longer) or even rebound, which is the plateau period in the weight loss process, also known as stagnation period.

As long as a certain balance of the body is broken, the body will try to repair and restore this balance, and the body's response is lagging behind, so it is more efficient to lose weight at first. Once it "wakes up", it will start to hinder weight loss!

Characteristics of platform period

If you want to know whether you are facing a platform period, there are several ways to observe:

1, the weight loss plan is still in effect, but the weight has stagnated for a week or even more than two months.

2. I eat very little every day, but my weight is nothing.

3. Have good exercise habits, but the weight has not changed.

At the same time, we should also measure the change of body circumference. If it is a platform period and the girth has not changed, it is not fat reduction and shaping. Losing weight must be scientific, and exercise must be enhanced by adjusting diet. This is still a cliche!

Of course, there are also two situations that do not belong to the platform period, so we must judge them correctly:

1) I didn't stick to my weight loss plan because I was lax; At this time, as long as you insist on losing weight again, you can keep losing weight;

2) weight is temporarily stagnant. The fluctuation of weight is normal. If you stop losing weight for less than a week, you can't count as a platform period.

Everyone has a plateau in the process of losing weight for different lengths of time. Some people only have a few weeks, others have a few months. But what is certain is that as long as we persist in losing weight and break through the platform period, our weight will continue to decline. However, after entering the platform period, because the body fat is relatively small, the weight loss will be very small.

The platform period of losing weight is an experience that most dieters will encounter. Many people give up losing weight at this time and do not pay attention to maintaining the weight loss results, which leads to a rebound. So if you stick to the platform, you are one of those winners.

Remember that "no rebound during the platform period is progress!"
