There are going to be many plateaus in your quest to be thin. It may seem like you are exercising and dieting just as much as you were before but you are not losing any weight. It happens to everyone at some point in time. It just means that you are ready to go to the next level so to speak. Your body has essentially adapted to eating healthy and exercise so it needs just a bit of a push to get it going again. Here are some tips to get that scale moving again:

• Add strength training to your exercise routine. Cardio is wonderful for weight loss, but adding weights to your schedule will help your muscles get stronger and burn off more calories then cardio alone.
• Sleep! I know it sounds like it would have absolutely nothing to do with weight loss, but many people find that with weight loss they lose sleep as well because they are getting up earlier to exercise. Getting at least 8 hours of sleep per day will help you have more energy to exercise more vigorously.
• Drink more water. As the dieting progresses people tend to forget about their 8 glass a day rule, so keep it going to make you feel more full and refreshed
• Lessen your calories by 250 per day. It isn’t that much, just one less piece of bread, choosing fat-free salad dressing over regular, or drinking 2 glasses of skim milk instead of 2%. You’ll hardly notice the difference, but your waist line will.
