Hey all!
Background information:
In about October I decided to take health seriously and start focusing on weight loss. I think this is the point where I decided to "change who I am" vs being an overweight person trying to lose weight if you know what I mean.
I'm 5'11" and started at about 236 pounds. I now find myself at ~184. I've always been pretty active but the main thing I've changed is my diet (surprise!). I stopped tracking calories at about 205ish and just focused on exercising/training hard and not eating horrible foods. I ate until I felt "fueled" so to speak and made sure to modulate the workout intensity to the amount of calories I felt I was eating.
However, I find myself sort of stuck at 184ish. I still have a bit of a gut, and can feel my hard-worked abs underneath it awaiting to surface. How since I only have a scale, how do I differentiate between losing fat while gaining muscle mass, or just plateauing at 184? Is it natural to have a hard time at the end? Do I need to intensify my workouts? Begin tracking macros again?
Any words of advice to finish strong would be appreciated. I've been at 184 for about ~3-4ish weeks now.
Thanks!
