Advice on weight loss

Hi everyone 👋

I'm a 23 year old 6ft guy that currently weights 220lbs. I've basically been in a bit of a rut fitness wise the past year. About 18 months ago I was walking around at a comfy 180lbs but dropped off with watching my calories for 6/7 months and boom, 230lbs.

For the past 9/ 10 months I've been a lot more active than I ever before. Find myself doing weight training at least 3 times a week and either run 3km or cycle roughly 20km 3 times a week.

I count my calories a whole lot more consistently and although on weekends I'll have a few beers and get a takeaway I'm puzzled as to why I've been stuck gaining and losing the same 10lbs the entire time.

There's been periods where I've cut down my calories intake to 1500 per day for a month at a time but the moment I go back to a normal amount of 2200 calories a day, it bounces back.

Naturally I fast most of the time, by going the whole day without eating and then having one high protein meal at the end of the day with some spare calories in case I fancy a nut bar or something.

Ultimately, I have absolutely no clue why this has been so hard and wondered if anyone has any idea or suggestions to how I can turn the tide on this?
