How to break the second weight loss plateau
Hi..I am 5’2″ female. Have been on a diet n have been exercising for almost 6 months now. I lost 14 KGS during this time and now weigh 70 KGS. I eat around 1200-1300 calories and work out 6 days a week (3 days cardio and 3 days weight training) for45-60 mins. I had plateaued some time back, so I cut calories further and moved to intervals in my cardio sessions. I lost another 3 KGS after that but I have stagnated again..if I cut calories further I’ll go below 1200. I am already doing intervals in cardio. My weight training sessions are also intense. I have a trainer with whom I do squats, dead lifts, lunges/leg press, bench press etc. I have whey protein twice everyday. What more can I do to break the weight loss plateau… i’m stuck.. please help
Hello Pragati Vajpayee,
Congratulations and good job on taking care of yourself.
I am also thinking you will benefit from meeting with a registered dietitian to find the best result and what you may be lacking or not. Also, are you getting enough deep sleep on a daily basis? Our bodies heal and regenerate during proper rest which is another piece of the puzzle. How much stress are you dealing with? Don’t add to the stress by worrying over a number on the scale; the ultimate goal is good health.
Take care,
Natalie aka NAPS 2 B Fit.
