Struggling with weight loss and getting weaker.
Hello, I’m a 23 year old who is 6’2, 182 pounds and roughly 20% body fat. I’ve been over weight most my life. Was 212 pounds 2 years ago then lost a lot of weight got down to 169. Then decided to “dirty bulk” (worst decision ever) back up to 205. I’ve now been stuck at this 180 pound mark for awhile, I’ll lose weight then have a travel week or go home for holidays etc and a weeks worth of bad eating off puts my progress. I count my calories, I weigh everything out, I lift 5 days a week and do incline cardio 7 days a week, I get 10,000 steps a day, I sleep 8+ hours a night. I eat 1700-1800 calories 150-190g protein a day. My lifts have been the same for over half a year maybe even gotten weaker. I’ve tried changing reps, exercises, etc. I get good rest. I owe it to myself to see my abs once in my life. I know they are overrated but as a life long fat kid I owe it to myself to have the discipline to get there. I’m so confused as to why I’m eating so few calories and still struggling to lose weight, I’m starving some days and don’t let myself eat.
I wouldn’t mind getting weaker if the weight loss results were there but they aren’t. So I’m basically getting weaker and not losing any fat.
Any ideas where I could be going wrong would be nice, as well as where I should adjust my caloric intake to? I’ve recently raised my protein to 200g minimum a day and still at that 1700-1800 calories.
