Reducing your food energy intake slows down your metabolism and the lesser you eat the lower your metabolic rate goes. A slow metabolism makes it harder for your body to turn food energy into calories which causes them to be stored in the body as fat.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_Are_Eating_More_Calories\"><\/span><b>You Are Eating More Calories<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The more weight you lose the higher your chances of slacking off, not keeping an eye on your calorie intake and eating more unhealthy foods as a &#8216;reward&#8217; for your progress. An increase in calorie intake without the subsequent increase in workouts to burn said cals can lead to a weight loss plateau.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Muscle_Loss\"><\/span><b>Muscle Loss<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A calorie deficit does not always mean water weight and fat loss. Sometimes it can also mean muscle loss, especially if you have been eating too little.

The moment your body realizes that you are on a diet -i.e., that you are now eating less than you used to, it reacts by slowing down how many calories it burns a day (even while at rest) and increases your appetite. These two factors will very easily make you hit a plateau in weight loss where you don&#8217;t see any changes on the scale (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/greatist.com\/health\/weight-loss-plateau-keto\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other factors such as lack of enough sleep, increased stress levels, lack of physical activity\/exercise, as well as thyroid problems, etc. can also be a big part of why you are experiencing a weight loss plateau whilst on a low carb ketogenic diet.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Get_Over_A_Weight_Loss_Plateau_On_Keto\"><\/span><b>How To Get Over A Weight Loss Plateau On Keto?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prevention is always better than cure.
