Stalled on keto or carnivore? Here are a few tips that might get you going again:

1) Try a month of no dairy, not counting butter to cook with. This accounted for 300-400 calories a day I was eating that I didn't need and broke my one and only stall. Eat to fulfill hunger, not macros.

2) Add some type of exercise into your routine. Whether it’s walking, aerobics, or resistance training, these things can only help improve your health, whether or not they get the scale moving again.

3) Relax! Being stressed out and not getting enough sleep can put your body into survival mode. It will not want to give up any precious body fat, because it perceives a crisis.

4) Stop using artificial sweeteners and especially quit the keto treats! When you use these things, you tend to want to feed your cravings and not your hunger. Make eating and drinking me the solution for what you need, not what you want.

5) Mix things up. Our bodies are great at adapting and patterns of restriction will be compensated for eventually. Feasting and fasting is a great combination to lose body fat and convince our metabolism starvation is not going to happen.

6) Conclusion: weight loss isn’t linear and not losing weight for a week or two isn’t necessarily a stall. Keep cool and make sure you’re not only not eating too much fat but that you are also eating enough! Always being hungry is a good way to slow your metabolism and stop weight loss.
An example of mixing things up:
3 days of one meal
2 days of two meals
1 48 hour fast
