I hear this from many people, and experienced it myself, lose weight to a certain point, then level out. My theory: when you are over weight, you burn more calories just doing daily activities. As the weight comes off, your normal movements burn fewer calories. I guess a way to test this is once you plateau, start wearing a 30 pound weight around your waist. Then see if that makes you plateau at 30 pounds lighter.

The problem would be that people would get used to the amount of calories they burn while wearing the product, and would probably balloon up as soon as the stopped wearing it.
