If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right but the scales just won’t budge you’re not alone. One of my online coaching clients from Cheshire found himself in exactly this situation. Despite training consistently, eating well, and staying focused, his progress hit a wall. We’d hit the dreaded weight loss plateau.
🧱 What Is a Weight Loss Plateau?
A weight loss plateau is a temporary pause in progress. Your body adapts over time it becomes more efficient, and what once worked might no longer move the needle. It doesn’t mean you’ve failed. It just means it’s time to make some smart adjustments.
This is where coaching makes the biggest difference.
🔄 What We Did to Break Through
After reviewing his food diary, weekly activity, and energy levels, I noticed a few key things:
- His calories hadn’t been adjusted in several weeks
- He was walking less due to a busier work schedule
- Protein intake had dipped slightly without him noticing
We didn’t overhaul everything we made targeted, sustainable changes:
- Reduced calories slightly to match his current weight
- Increased protein to improve satiety and recovery
- Added 10–15 minutes of walking per day
- Kept resistance training as a priority
These simple tweaks brought progress back and fast. Within two weeks, he dropped over a kilo and reported feeling leaner, more energised, and motivated again.
⚠️ Why Most People Stay Stuck
Most people don’t break plateaus because they don’t know what to change — or when to change it. They either slash calories too hard, overtrain, or give up entirely.
That’s why having a coach matters.
You need a second set of eyes. Someone to adjust things for you objectively, based on data, not emotions.
