So I’m 33, male, 185 lbs, about 22% body fat. 5’10.
I have an office job. I sit all day.
3 days a week i lift for 60-75 minutes, plus a 10 minute elliptical warmup. Two to three days I do 50 minutes elliptical, and maybe one or two days of CrossFit.
I’m trying to get down to 166ish by February 24th (a little more than three months from now).
I’ve been on this same diet for the past three weeks or so. About 190 grams of protein, and between 1850 and 2000 calories total. No sugar or junk aside from some sugar In my morning coffee. I don’t know what my other macros are precisely but it’s all clean food.
One day a week I allow myself to get to 2700 total calories as my “cheat” day. I don’t always eat that much on the cheat day, though.
Most TDEE calculators put me at about 2500-2700 total expenditure.
But I haven’t lost a single pound yet. I don’t understand. Has the weight loss not shown up yet? Or do I need to drop down to 1600-1700 to start losing weight? I think I need to start seeing 1.5 pounds lost per week to at least know I’m making progress.
Are my goals realistic?
