Im 5’4” and weight 128 lbs. I want to lose 5-8 lbs I think I look the best at 120-ish. I lost the weight earlier this year by gradually increasing my calorie deficit and eventually got down to 120 lbs but I really didn’t start seeing any weight loss until I was at ~1,400 calories a day. I work out 4-6 times a week and eat healthy. I started feeling really run down though and had some health issues so I went back to eating 1,900-2,000 calories a day and my weight slowly went back up to 128. About three months ago I started doing a smaller deficit, at 1,700 calories a day but it’s made no change and I’ve just remained at 128 for about five months now.
I don’t have it in me again to go back down to 1,400 calories it felt like so little food. Is my TDEE really ~1,700 calories even with strength training and working out everyday? Im tracking all my food by weighing it out. Am I just destined to be this size and never be able to lean out? Why is this so hard??? I’m feeling so frustrated.
Can anyone relate? Any advice? Does stress and cortisol really matter, could I just be overthinking it and stressed out? I don’t know what else to do.
