I haven't had the chance to look through all of these, but I hope to soon. Some of these I am familiar with, and they deal mostly with crash starvation diets rather than weight loss plateaus. People on a true starvation diet don't plateau or stop losing weight (as shown by these very studies).
Are there any that deal specifically with increasing calories with respect to a weight loss plateau?0
