In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Many people will experience one or a few stalls in their weight loss. This is normal and to be expected so don't give up on your plan. Weight stalls are when you've been actively losing weight and for a week or more you notice that your weight has not decreased. There are a variety of reasons behind weight stalls. Review your exercise patterns, food journal if you've been keeping one and any other lifestyle habits. If you've been slacking at exercise or snacking more than usual, this may be the cause of your weight stall; however, even if you've stayed 100% on track, it can be normal to experience a stall. When you've hit a weight plateau, ensure you're sticking to your plan and be patient. As your body adjusts to your new weight, you should see your weight loss restart. Any big lifestyle change can be difficult to follow long-term. Journaling can help you keep track of your progress and be a place to vent frustrations or write about exciting progress. Studies have shown that journaling can help dieters in a variety of ways. Keeping track of your food will help keep you accountable. Also, seeing your progress can be a motivating factor to keep you on track. Dieting can get lonely, especially if the people around you lead unhealthy lifestyles. Having a friend to diet and exercise with can help you stay motivated and actually make dieting fun. Ask friends of family members to help you stay accountable. Share with them your diet, exercise, and lifestyle plan. You may feel less tempted to slip up around people who know what your goals are. It might also be a good idea to go through weight loss together. Studies have shown that when you exercise or diet together with friends, this support group helps everyone involved be more successful long-term. Adults should be getting seven to nine hours of sleep per night. Being tired can impact your weight in multiple ways: you are more likely to make bad decisions when tired (like getting a pizza instead of something healthy); you may be more likely to go for late-night, carb-heavy snacks; you may crave junk food; and on top of that, you may lack the energy to exercise. . When you are stressed, your body releases a hormone called cortisol, which tells your body to conserve energy (i.e., hang on to fat). If you're exercising, that's a great way to bust stress, but look into other methods as well. Consider yoga, meditation, positive visualization, going for a walk in nature, laughing with a friend, or doing something creative to help reduce your stress.
Summary: Plan for a weight plateau or stall. Start a journal. Find a diet buddy. Get enough sleep. Reduce stress

Problem: Article: Depending on your audience, some formats might be more effective than others. If this decision hasn't already been made for you by your employer, pick a format you think will be appropriate for your audience. If your audience will be reading your document while carrying out a task, a technical manual or instruction sheet made up of bullet points and possibly diagrams may be most effective. On the other hand, if you are hoping to inform professionals about new research in their field, an article or newsletter format might be best. Before you actually write your document, create an outline to organize and plan your content. This will not only make writing easier, it's also a good way to ensure that the information you have deemed most important will all be present, and that it will be organized in a way that will make sense to your audience. Outlines are also a good way of developing headings for the different sections in your document, which will be useful in helping readers identify the key pieces of information they are looking for. One of the most valuable things about audience analysis is that it allows you to select a writing voice that will be compelling and effective for reaching your audience. The right choice of words and sentence structure can make a big difference in getting your message across to your audience. For example, if your audience is highly educated and/or well versed in the topic you are writing about, the use of highly specific and technical vocabulary may be acceptable or even helpful. If your audience is not well informed about your topic, such language should be avoided. Likewise, if your audience is likely to be reading your work while carrying out a specific task or in a work environment with many distractions, the use of short, simple sentences is advisable. If they'll be reading your work at home and giving it their undivided attention, varying sentence length and structure will make your writing more compelling and enjoyable. Most importantly, knowing what your audience hopes to learn from the document you are crafting will allow you to make sure that the information they need most is presented in a way that is easy for them to locate and understand.
Summary:
Consider your format. Create an outline. Set the tone. Address the audience's needs and objectives.
