should i do a whole week of a high carb diet to fix leptin so i can boost my fat burn again?

I been cutting for 10 months straight and I plateud back in august and my weight loss slowed down. Im constantly craving food and i just want it to stop!!! Its getting aggravating! I hate food... So thats why i hate craving food. So should a whole week of high carb fix this? Also i have been cheating for the past few weeks.but didnt go over maintenance and still nothing changed. Also been doing refeeds guess what... Still no results still craving! I just feel like i m getting fatter and fatter. So should i do this whole week high carb will it fix my hormone imbalance issues?

    has a doctor told you that you have hormone imbalance issues?

    your craving could be mineral/vitamin deficiencies, or as a result of having a very large calorie deficit for a long time. maybe just eat what you're craving...

    You know im going to be honest with you...no my doctor hasnt told me that. As a matter of fact my doctor dosent even know i lost weight. He didnt put me on a diet plan. I put myself on one. See i started at 225 now i weigh 158 and my weight fluctuate to 162 sometimes 163. The thing about it is im not even below 20% bf yet and im constantly craving anything in sight! Whether its healthy food or junk food... I WANT IT!!! And its driving me insane (I hate food always have always will) I just want to stop eating lose the rest of this fat and go on with my life thats all.

    Im eating atleast since im trying to cut... 2,000 calories a day to lose a pound... But it just wont work my body just wont allow it it just keeps making me eat more making me eat at maintenance. Once i get to maintenance im satisfied. Now thats just crazy! Im craving i guess for anything i just want to eat anything nothing really specific. When i first started cutting i was doing just fine. No junk food really. Because again i hate all food in general i dont think we need to survive by putting things in our mouth. Also im a person with alot of will power thats just in my mentality. I didnt need nobody to drive me or help me lose weight and my my body is taking my will strength away by making me eat food. Which i hate! I also do kickboxing and workout everyday. No rest days really. But im trying to incorporate some. But hard to. I just love working out. Its part of my lifestyle! :)

    What? This is something you should discuss with your doctor. Your body makes you eat food the same way your lungs make you breathe air.

    Ok first of all i always hated food since day one. The reason why i got fat is because i have to keep this stupid body alive otherwise i wouldnt eat period. I wish there was a way the doctor could reprogram my body to survive off something else. But yes i hate food and im thinking about starving myself and i dont care.

    Starving yourself won't stop your cravings. You have cravings when your body needs something it's currently lacking. It's trying to tell you something, and I think you should listen ... have you thought about talking to a nutritionist? They might be able to shed some light on getting you the nutrition you need while helping you reach your goal.
