After your routine becomes habit your muscles get used to the routine and become more efficient at losing weight and burning the fat.
Most weight loss plateaus occur because our bodies become used to our new energy intake, and now require less energy to maintain the new weight. Once you reach this stage then you should increase your exercise and re-evaluate your diet to ensure that you are eating healthy things and moving more.
