    Plateaus can be VERY frustrating! Sometimes just keeping on keeping on works. Other things that I have heard and I have had success with are:
    Try a new exercise
    Up your calories
    Add a cheat day (eat an extra 100-200 nutritious calories)
    Bump up your water intake
    Have a rest day

    The goal is to keep your body guessing, so it doesn't have time to adjust to a routine and cause a plateau.
