Before surgery the only way I knew how to switch things up on a diet was to increase carb levels to shock my system. I am not going to add carbs to my system. So when you say add something or shock your system, what do you guys do to do that so I can break out of this plateau that I've been at for the past week or two? By carbs I mean BAD CARBS .... Please don't anyone freak out... I have fruit & veggies.... Yes I get good carbs... No I don't eat bread or rice or toast or crackers etc, & won't. ????????thanks everyone ????????????????

Google intermittent fasting, and carb cycling and see if you think one of those or a combo might work.

I found added carbs is a good thing. My personal trainer was trying to convince me and I was stubborn like you. Then I finally listened and it worked! Go figure!

Have you tried switching up your exercise routine? Add intervals, lift heavier weights, change the activity you're doing and/or the frequency and intensity. Try a different routine.

When I stall I push the fluids and the proteins, lessen the calories & carbs/sugars, increase my walking and go back to basics. This seems to help. After 6 mos it isn't a drastic weight loss like before though so if I continue to lose a pound or 2 a week I am happy. It is when the scale stoos moving altogether that I really switch it up.
