if you've been on a plateau that long, then you're basically maintaining. Its likely you are eating more than you think as for a guy 1670 cals are low.
(I'm small and maintain on 2200 cals)0 -
You're already at maintenance, and more than likely eating more than 1670. (I'm a small elderly woman, and I maintain on 1775.)0
