why do we stop losing weight after being on a “diet” for a while if we still have body fat to burn?

I heard that “metabolism slows down” and that our body becomes “more efficient”…how? What does this concretely mean? Also, how can we get out of this loop and start losing weight again?

I wrote “diet” because I’m talking about a DIY one, but I guess diets made by professionals also have to be adjusted every now and then.

because you’ve reached the size you’re eating for.

If you were 200 and you lost 50 lb by eating the proper amount for a 150 lb person, continuing to eat that same amount will never get you any smaller. if you want to be 125, you’ll have to start eating the right amount for a 125 lb person.

this is why diets “fail”. Narrator: they don’t. the person wants the same diet to do something different
