Hmmm plateau

Well June 17th 2024 I was 380lbs. Today with intermittent fasting I'm around 190. Amazing but all this month I haven't dropped at all. Seams like body fighting the weightloss. Any suggestions?

    Are you counting your calorie intake or not? Intermittent fasting is just a way to be in a calorie deficit: if you're not calorie counting - having lost that much weight, your body now needs fewer calories - simply intermittent fasting perhaps isn't getting you into a calorie deficit anymore.

    Aside from that, if you've been in a calorie deficit since June 2024, I think you are overdue on taking a diet break. A calorie deficit for that long a period is stressful for the body. If recommend eating more for a few weeks to give your body a break.
