Here are some other threads about "refeeding" - i.e. REAL "leptin refeeding", not just binging:

However, I think it's worth repeating that a real "stall" or "plateau" is defined as "4-6 WEEKS of NEITHER pounds NOR inches lost". Most of us experience a slowdown or pause in weightloss after the initial 2 Induction weeks, before it starts up again, since the body often seems to need a small break to readjust. (I, for one, gained 1 lb week 3 and hovered w4-6 b/f weighloss started again.) That natural pause would better be addressed with patience and not by messing around with the metabolism as it could be quite counter productive.
