If you're like the majority of the people out there, you will have tried several different diets and had a different degree of successes. You could have lost weight but you usually get to a certain point and then nothing you do can help you lose more fat. This plateau that many people hit, is typical with almost all diet plans. It's not possible to prevent the plateau problem if you don't learn how to deceive your metabolism.

You most likely have already hit the plateau at least once--in fact, it has probably caused a frustrating end to more than one diet program. This is an unusual thing that happens to even the most successful dieters sometime near the third or fourth week of the diet they have selected. Until that point weight is coming off and then it just stops, and practically nothing works to keep the body shedding pounds. This is the body responding to the things you're putting it through. Your body decelerates your rate of metabolism when you arrive at this point as it wants to protect you from accidental starvation. What this does, then, is prevent your body from shedding any more excess fat.

This is what makes a lot of people believe that they simply aren't capable of reaching their weight loss objectives and they throw in the towel. At this stage , most people get back to eating and start getting back their weight usually more than they lost to begin with. The way to stop this is to pick a diet where your calories simply get shifted. This means you eat a different number of calories daily which can help trick your metabolism. If this works on your body it will not enter "protective" mode. This helps to keep your body's metabolism working, instead of slowing down, and your body goes on to lose weight. When you get to this point, you have passed the plateau and your diet will keep on working the way it was designed to.

It is very easy to integrate this type of plan into your everyday routine. One of the more popular methods of calorie shifting is the 14 day method. This program goes for 14 days: you do regular things for the first eleven and then during the last three you eat anything you want. You switch your foods throughout the day, deceiving your metabolism, and for three day eat what you want, avoiding the plateau. This actually also keeps you from getting frustrated at a stringent regimen with your eating. You can actually keep repeating these 14 days until you truly feel content with the amount of weight you have lost.

The 2 day plan is yet another way, where you eat regularly for one day, and the other day you trim your calories by 20% to 35%. You do this every 2 days for as long as it takes you to arrive at your weight loss objectives. It's a program that you have to try, as it could be exactly what can get you past your plateau, to where you will get rid of all the weight you want.
