In the process of losing weight, after losing weight to a certain value, although you continue to lose weight, your weight will not continue to drop for a long time. This situation is called the weight loss platform period. This is because in the process of losing weight, the body should maintain basal metabolism and avoid the complete exhaustion of energy. When the energy in the body is consumed to a certain extent, the body will produce protective inhibition. It is normal for everyone to lose weight in the process of losing weight. At this time, we must continue to lose weight in the previous way and maintain the results that have been reduced. As long as we persist in losing weight and break through the platform period, we will continue to lose a lot of weight. People who lose weight will lose a lot of weight in the first month. When they suddenly lose weight in the second month, they will be discouraged and even give up the original weight loss method. That's good.
The physiological function of human beings is mysterious, and it has some protective functions. When the calories we consume to lose weight are reduced, after a period of time, our bodies will adapt, absorb the calories we consume as much as possible and make the most effective use of them, while reducing the basal metabolic rate and energy consumption, so the calories reach a new equilibrium state and the weight will no longer drop. Stagnation usually does not last long, usually 2-3 weeks to a month or so.
How to overcome the plateau period (stagnation period) of weight loss;
A better way to overcome the stagnation period is to increase the amount of exercise, improve our metabolic rate, and make the excess fat in the body turn into calorie consumption at a faster speed.
