Hi!

Been using MFP for about 8 Months now! Hit a plateau recently! Can't seem to lose much more weight, or strip the fat from my waist line! My defecit is 750kcal a day, I'm about 20% body fat and It just doesn't seem to want to go lower than that! Macros are 45 carb 25 fat and 30 protein. Any one got any tips??

I walk at least 10miles every weekday and I train 5 times a week, 1hr weights and 1/2 hour cardio (elliptical or treadmill)

Also if anyone wants to give me an add for a bit of motivation!

Gennaro!

    I'd toss this into the General Diet and Weight Loss forum if you don't get any additional replies. How are you measuring out your food - packages, measuring cups, scale? How long have you been on the plateau? Have you added or removed any additional exercise lately?

    All my food is measured out in grams and by portion sizes on the packet, I have a pretty decent set of scales and I'm quite anal about quantities! For example if something weighs out to 82g il put 82g I won't round it!

    Ive not lost weight for about a month! And tbh I'm not too worried about weight, it's more my body fat percentage! Which won't come down from 20%

    if anything I've upped the exercise! I do waaaay more cardio than I used to!

    Thanks for the advice I'll chuck the question on that forum now!

    Gennaro
