Hey all,
I have been trying to lose weight for a little over 2 months now and just cant seem to drop from my starting weight. I think I am doing things right but every time I check the scale or look in the mirror I see no change. I was hoping someone might be able to look at my typical plan and see why I am stuck. I am sure I am missing something obvious.
Weight: 255
height 5'9
BF% 39
Calories per day: 1670
Aiming for a higher protein diet but usually split between cards and protein.
Workouts
3 days weight lifting in a circuit training fashion through the fitbod app (3 exercises for 3-4 sets, done twice, usually hitting failure on final sets) followed by cardio
Every non lifting day some form of cardio which has mainly been through VR using beat saber with exaggerated/dancing movements and Fit XR boxing/HIIT classes that do leave me winded at the end.
Workouts will typically be 45 min to an hour. 30 min if it has been a rough day but usually in the upper ranges.
I track my calories pretty close and have been using a food scale to help lock down calories. When looking at burned calories I always subtract 100-200 from what fitbit/vr tracker says. I also try to over estimate how many calories I am eating.
When I have burned a lot of calories I do tend to eat a little more, but still keeping the combined total eaten and burned under the suggested 1670.
My water intake could be higher, but I usually fall back on MIO water enhancers for a glass or 3 during the day for caffeine or electrolytes.
every Friday or Saturday me and my wife do have a cheat day which when we do my calories can shoot to around 2,500 for that one day, but usually keep it lower than that.
Of course I do falter here and there on workouts and eating, but then try to make up for it the following few days. But have been pretty consistent overall.
So is there something obvious I am missing or is the process just taking time to show results?
Thank you all in advance.
