I read that a person should not be in a large deficit for dieting more than 12 weeks at a time and that one should eat at maintenance for a couple of weeks in between deficits. I have no idea if this is grounded in science or anything. I have been in a consistent deficit of 500 to 250 calories for about a year now. Supposedly this deficit raises the cortisol (stress hormone) in the body which hinders weight loss, this the need for a maintenance break. If anyone has experience with this or knows of its true, I would like to hear about it.
I am a 46F 5’3 and 130 pounds down from 171 pounds a year ago.
