Diets with high activity levels.

So I'm generally active. On a good day I'll go to the gym for an hour. Run (6.0 mph 3.5 mile) and lift. Then if I have off work I will skate, bike, whatever for a good 5-6 hours. If I have work I still get in about 3 hours of active time and I stand all day at work Some days I'll gym it, hike for 3-4 hours then do more stuff.

So here the thing. I used to eat around 1700 cal and I was only going to the gym. I dropped weight like crazy. 250 to lowest was like 197. 203ish now idk why.

I started doing all this extra exercise cause I like it. Well I tried so hard to stay at 1700, but it didn't work.

So I upped to 1900 and lost minimal weight. Then I started to figure out why I couldn't see numbers drop. Someone suggested I eat more because my body was working so hard and not getting enough food. I also swicthed to mostly non processed foods.

I upped to 2500, and since this site I now eat even around 3500. That's because on certain days I see myself burning 4500+ cals in a day.

Me eating more is recent so I'm not sure if it's going to be steady. I'm sure I could handle eating less but I'm worried I will stay stuck.

I just would like opinions on whether I should keep staying active and drop my cak intake again or stay in the 3k+ zone on days I burn 4k+.



THANKS!
