Plateau Symptom: Your Diet
Symptom: Constant cravings make it hard for you to pass up on old favorites. Yet, you know those little nibbles of foods you love may explain why you’re at a standstill.
Underlying cause: You’re bored with your diet
The Fix: Shake up your food choices. Load up on different fruits and vegetables, try some new dishes with whole grains or lean protein, and experiment with seasonings.
And when it comes to satisfying your sweet tooth, stick with one or 2 staples.
Studies show decreasing the variety of high-fat foods you eat can lower your total calories and boost your weight loss.
Having a plethora of high-fat options to choose from encourages you to keep eating so you can experience the different sensory qualities of each food.
Remember the old adage, less is more.
