Weight loss plateau

I want to start off saying I used to be very large for my height, I am 5”10. My heaviest weight was 245lbs Jan 1 2019, throughout 2019 I dropped all the way down to 175lbs however never saw abs and had a “flat” belly button and somewhat man boobs (biggest insecurity)

Then I found my healthy weight of 185lbs (still no abs & somewhat man boobs). But overall I loved it, felt great, great eating & workout routine. Always been an athlete, played sports throughout high school (2015 grad) into college (2019 grad). Big CrossFit guy, runner, did an ultra trail run, 3 triathlons, 3 half marathons and one marathon. Very fit lifestyle.

Current workout regiment is about 4 days of cardio/crossfit/swim/run/bike and 3 days heavy lifting. At the point I take a Rest day when my body & whoop tells me.

I joined the Marines in 2022 and have been to many courses where my weight fluctuated up and down granted I was living off 2 MRE’s a week due to high tempo in the jungle and field. However haven’t been in the field since October 25’. Noticed however my weight started going up and after a nice Christmas home I was 205lbs (Christmas cookies and alcohol hit hard lmao)

However Jan 1 2026 cut out alcohol, set a diet of 2400 cals same workout routine. 4 days cardio 3 days weights, rest as needed. I even have an Ironman 70.3 this month and my training plan has been great.

I’ve plateaud so hard… I have been 202-205 for 3 months. I cut out alcohol, diet is nails, eat good Whole Foods, lots of veggies, fruits, meats, carbs. All of it. Meal prep weekly. Weigh out my portions. Minimum gallon water daily

No results at all….

I even took it so far to get my blood work done. I’m 30 this October I thought damn maybe I’m aging fast lmao. All my levels are perfectly normal. Test, cortisol, blood work was flawless, VO2 max is 56, whoop age says 22😂

What the hell is wrong with me… please help
