Hey all.
I am a 28 year old male, 186cm (6'2"). my goal is probably to get down to the 90-95 mark.
I started off a few years ago at 160kg(350lb) and through CICO I got myself down to 100kg (220lb) but ground to a halt 9-12 months ago, maybe longer
I figured with everything going on both globally and personally at the time I would just leave the plateau alone and see if It was one that was just going to end on its own.
but here we are, a new year, and instead of losing weight I am slowly putting it back on again, woke up one day noticed my shirts were tighter than I remembered...Shit.
My biggest problem has been and continues to be finding a calorie intake that works for me, all the TDEE websites seem to spit out a maintenance number in the ballpark of ~2500 but if I start even eating remotely close to the 2000 mark I start gaining again.
I work 6 days a week so I find finding time to actually get off my ass and exercise a significant amount to be a real struggle.
So I guess after all that rambling what my question boils down to is, eating significantly less than my TDEE works, but is unsustainable and miserable, eating anywhere near that 500 under mark that is recommended doesn't seem to work for me, so what should my next steps be to push through another 5-10kg
