Let’s talk about how to fix a weight loss plateau when you’re on keto, which is nearly inevitable. First I want to explain the principle, “Get healthy to lose weight, not lose weight to get healthy”. We all know that it’s possible to lose weight in an unhealthy way. You could lose muscle mass and feel like crap.

When you get healthy, your body goes into repair mode. It fixes the structural part of the cell, using protein. If your body is repairing itself, it won’t necessarily mobilize fat first because the more pressing priority is to repair the cell structure. And protein is heavier by volume than fat.

If you aren’t losing weight, take a look at your energy, strength, and vitality. Have your cravings gone away, and are you less hungry? Those are signs your body is repairing. Focus on them.

As well, change takes time. Often, people give up too soon. It took years for the condition that is causing your weight gain to develop; you’re not going to reverse it immediately. This goes for insulin resistance, fatty liver disease, thyroid problems, cancer, and even adrenal problems. Menopause can also be a significant reason why you struggle with weight loss. So, increase your estimation of how long you think it will take to lose weight.

Be sure to differentiate between fat and muscle atrophy. I explain how. This is especially important at menopause. Your adrenal glands are a backup to your ovaries. If you’re going into menopause with adrenal fatigue, you’re more susceptible to muscle atrophy. Which can then become frustrating when you’re doing keto and intermittent fasting, and not getting the results you want. Rebuilding muscle can take a significant amount of time.

Stress is another factor; it builds up. You know you have a problem when you check to see how you handle stress. Also, the accumulation of old injuries can cause a weight loss plateau. So too can pain.

Passive-aggressive people can cause you a lot of stress, too. Just avoid them if you can! There are many other causes; be sure to watch this entire entertaining and informative talk about why weight loss plateaus happen and what you can do to move past them.
