What is behind it
As weight falls, so does expenditure. According to a review, appetite plays an even larger part, because the body works against further loss.[1] One calculation estimates that people eat about 100 kcal more a day for each kilogram lost.[2]
First check if it really is one
Weight changes even during a normal week.[3] A few equal values are not yet a plateau. The mean over several weeks says more. See Why the scales go up and down.
What you can do then
- Look at your needs again: if you log your weight, the app uses the newest value.
- Check your entries: portions often grow unnoticed, and drinks count too.
- Keep your weight: this is also a good decision if a further deficit does not fit your life right now.
If the plateau weighs on you or you keep eating less, read When to get medical advice.
The app does not replace medical advice.
