And the plateau is just the body doing its job.
When we look at the body as an adaptive survival unit, then homeostasis is a big part of that.
So if the body achieves homeostasis, then hallelujah, we're gonna live, we're gonna survive.
So if, for example, somebody has a lot of weight to lose, let's say somewhere to the order of over 20 pounds, 20, 40, 60 pounds to lose,
they have to understand that multiple plateaus will be encountered en route to their ultimate goal.
And the way that the body changes is always going to be this surge, slow, stop pattern.
And it just continues this way.
And with every progressive plateau, the surge part gets shorter.
and the slowing part, and then the plateau part gets longer.
So you can think of it as staircases and landings.
So with each successive plateau, the staircase gets shorter, the landing gets longer.
But it's supposed to go like that.
And the plateaus should be getting longer because the ultimate goal, after all, is a plateau of sorts.
And when people come to realize that, then they can look at plateaus as what I call...
maintenance practice.
So if they have that mental shift from seeing plateaus as this negative thing where I need to go sniff out the next great diet or the next great product, they can look at it as, all right, so the plateau is a good thing.
The body is doing its job.
Now we have an opportunity to practice maintenance.
And think about it this way too, Steven.
Anybody can get weight off.
