[quote="GI Jane"]Plateaus are a part of life... in almost everything, and weight loss is no different. Your body will eventually adjust to whatever you do, so you have to make sure you can keep things fresh, and move toward making healthy changes in your lifestyle. This is why crash diets don't work (among other things). If you drink grape fruit juice 24/7, or toss out all your carbs, you will lose weight... but eventually your body will stop reacting and you won't lose weight (that is if you don't give up first, cause that's no way to live). Instead of going all crazy, just make little changes that move you toward your goal. Eliminate something bad and replace it with something good. Replace soda with water. Cut out sugary cereals and replace with oatmeal. Take the stairs instead of the elevator. Whenever you hit that plateau (and you will), be ready to swap something else. It doesn't have to be as difficult as running 2 miles instead of 1 (but that will work, too).[/quote]
