Female
Age: 37
Height: 5'4"
Weight: 167
TDEE: 2329
BMR: 1502
No weight loss in the last 8 months. Have tried (all for 2 months at a time) 1500, 1700, 1800 calories. Did a metabolism reset over the summer @2000 calories for 8 weeks. Gained 3 lbs. Dropped to 1300 calories lost 3 lbs in 3 days and nothing since.
Started lifting 3 days a week following New Rules of Weight Lifting for Women (next week I'll add cardio back in, too sore this week) and gained almost 1 lb.
Need to lose a minimum of 20 more pounds just to be in a healthy BMI range.
