b'On average, only nine to twelve percent of people keep their New Year\\u2019s Resolutions. When it comes to weight loss in particular, many people get discouraged when the number on the scale doesn\\u2019t drop as quickly as they\\u2019d like \\u2013 but a plateau is often a normal part of any weight loss journey. Dr. Chris Mohr, registered dietitian and ambassador for Nutrisystem -- the leading provider of health and wellness and weight loss solutions \\u2013 can offer a number of tips to overcome these hurdles. Among them:

\\u2022 Get Enough Shut-Eye -- Lack of sleep can disrupt weight loss. If you\\u2019re having trouble getting some shut-eye, try sticking to a regular sleep schedule and limiting your caffeine consumption and screen-time in the hours before bed.
\\u2022 Don\\u2019t Skimp on Protein & Fiber -- Protein helps to preserve lean muscle mass while losing weight to help maintain metabolic rate. Also, protein and fiber are strongly related to satiety, which keep you feeling full longer.
\\u2022 Keep a Diet Journal \\u2013 Track your food intake including all eating occasions (even nibbling), portion sizes and ingredients. This way, if you notice the scale is stuck, you can look back at your journal and see where you may be overdoing it. Nutrisystem\\u2019s NuMi app is one way to organize your meal plan throughout your weight loss journey.
\\u2022 Overeating \\u2013 sounds obvious, but remember that weight loss is dependent on \\u201ccalories in\\u201d being lower than \\u201ccalories out.\\u201d Meal delivery programs like Nutrisystem can help eliminate guesswork by providing the right balance of nutrients at every meal.'
