It happens to all of us. After weeks or months of slow and steady progress, something happens and you're stuck. Raise your hand if this hasn't happened to you. <\/p>

Here are some suggestions that may help<\/p>

Love yourself, for real<\/h2>

Success in life isn't about avoiding failures, but about being able to get back on your feet after stumbling.<\/p>

It's easier said than done, especially when it comes to living a healthier lifestyle. Everything in modern society (and human biology) is set up to increase our consumption of fat, sweet, and salty calories.<\/p>

Acknowledging this truism is important. It will help you accept your humanity, your imperfection, and allow you to be compassionate with yourself. Practice self-love. Unwavering love towards yourself and your body.  <\/p>

Get active<\/h2>

It doesn't really matter what type of physical activity you do, but try to get your heart rate up. If you can do this outdoors in a park or on a forest hike, even better. Moving the body does wonders for the spirit, improves mood, and, yes, burns some calories too.<\/p>

Give yourself time<\/h2>

You may have had a target date, or a target weight. So what. Over the course of a decade, what's another month or two? Will you really be twice as happy if you lose 5 more pounds? <\/p>

Get some sleep<\/h2>

When we're tired and irritable, it's harder to stay disciplined. It's more tiring to cook. There's less motivation to workout. Conversely, when we're well rested, the sky is the limit.<\/p>

Reassess your food choices<\/h2>

Take a look at what you've been eating in order to lose weight. Is something missing from the equation? Maybe not enough protein? Not enough carbs? Could your daily allotment have been too low to be sustainable?<\/p>

By asking yourself these questions, and asnwering them honestly, you may get a sense of what to do next. Getting help from a nutrition preofessional can help as well.<\/p>

Bottom Line<\/h2>

Everyone has slumps. Don't feel too bad about it. Remind yourself that you're here to play the long game.<\/p>
