Weight loss plateaus are a common challenge in obesity treatment, where individuals experience a halt in weight reduction after initial progress. Several factors contribute to this phenomenon, including metabolic adaptation, where the body adjusts to a lower calorie intake by decreasing its energy expenditure. Hormonal changes, such as reductions in leptin and increases in ghrelin, can also intensify hunger and slow down fat loss. Additionally, as individuals lose weight, their caloric needs decrease, making it harder to maintain the same rate of weight loss. Overcoming plateaus often requires adjustments in diet, exercise, and sometimes the introduction of new strategies, such as intermittent fasting or increasing physical activity intensity, to reignite fat loss.
