Plateaus are a normal part of weight loss. Tracking the right details helps you and your prescriber decide whether a change is needed.
Confirm it is a real plateau
Weekly trends over several weeks — not a few days — confirm whether progress has truly stalled.
Review the inputs
Check protein, nutrition, activity, sleep, and adherence before assuming the medication needs adjusting.
Bring data to your prescriber
A clear record makes any dose or plan conversation far more productive.
