I've cut out all junk food, I don't even eat bread anymore. My macros is 25 carb, 35 pro and 40 fat. I am a paleo dieter and this is what is best for endomorphs. Ive lost 30 pounds and progress has stopped. I work out daily, doing 21 day fix extreme and now I am inter grating max 30. I get 7- 9 hours sleep. I drink a lot of water. I eat at 1710 calories a day or a little less. I have done refeeds. I have given my body a break from work out, I have changed put my work outs.p going from p90x3 to 21 day fix extreme. I have had a whole week were I ate at maintain economic I have done intermittent fasting. I have changed my macros around and yet I cannot loose weight. I need help. I've followed all the advice online and nothing is working.

Weigh your food on a digital scale, log your calories with care, double checking against other databases
Endomorph is not a thing in terms of dieting
Stop chopping and changing and just commit to a calorie defecit9 -

I have a food scale I weigh everything that goes into my mouth and double check the macros and nutrients of food just to make sure. Endomorphs struggle with fat loss because our body is so well at storing for energy which makes weight loss possible but harder.0

Somatotypes are not a scientifically sound concept in weight loss
They were developed in the 1940s by a psychologist on a subjective visual guideline
You don't struggle any more than the next person ..don't buy into the derp it won't be helpful10 -
I guess I'll have to go to my doctor to rule out anything. But I got a full blood work done when I was 30 pounds heavier a few months back and he said everything was fine0

And it was an extensive full blood work0

Someone posted the other day that if your calories are on point have faith in the system it will work .. others have talked about exercise calories .. if your eating those back cut some back for a few weeks and see if things change ..
Good thing is your not gaining that's a win in its self .. I'm 5 8 and around 220 .. MFP has me at 1560 cals to loose 1.5 pounds a week .. some time I loose Less or more but overall trend is spot on
Good luck2 -
Open your diary for specific advice
But if you've already seen your doctor and and already lost weight it's probably down to issues with calories in vs calories out1 -

Hey you don't have to agree with me on body types. I am here to find a solution for my weight loss stall, I am not here looking for a debate. If you have anything else to add to help me loose weight I would appreciate it.

I'll keep at it, I don't eat back the calories I cut. So I'll just keep doing what I'm doing and hope for a change. Thank you

Sue is right, she has tons of insight. Open your diary, maybe you are not getting something wrong in your logging.0

I've already added it and suggested you open your diary
There's nothing to debate on somatotypes ..just knowledge to share1 -

Upon review the calories I'm taking in is anywhere from 1600-1776 90 percent of the time. with a few 1500 days one 1400 day and one 1830 day. For this month thus far. Last month was I was eating less mostly 1500-1600. I increased my calories by 100 because of 21 day fix extreme. It recommends I eat 1779.0

Change the setting to make it public, so others can view it and give concrete tips.1 -

What does MFP set your daily goal at for weight loss ? How much weight are you trying to lose a week ? How long has your weight been at a plateau ?0 -

According to stats, your BMR is approximately 1655 calories. Dependent on your physical activity, I believe your TDEE to be about 2100-2300, so you should be in the right range of calories for weight loss. If the information above is accurate, then it may a stress issue (stress can hold back weight loss) or your calorie expenditure is not that high. Personally I'd have to see how you workout to assess if you're being efficient. Besides the BB workouts, do you do any other physical activity on your own?

MFP says for lightly active I would need to eat 1330 and for moderate 1660. I work out every day from 45 min to an hour but I'm a stay at home mom so I don't know which one I would fit into. I just decided to follow what my work out program says into the which into 1779 though most of the time into eat 100 calories less than that.
