    Keep working out, try to shift from traditional workouts to functional workouts. Do more of body weight exercises and it will do wonders on you. For example:- Do pull ups and shift to dips or parallel dips without taking a break. focus on deep breaths as you lift or do any moment. I feel your diet is perfect just consume more of anti oxidants and other essential minerals. Have more of proteins. Practice Yoga and power yoga. Do more of cardio and other fitness activities like zumba, aerobics etc. Good luck

    If you are accurately weighing all your food and are hitting your deficit amount of calories/macros daily, does it really matter how much you burn during your workouts?

    Your posts have all been very insightful for me, particularly regarding calorie burn. How do I determine my calorie burn for Crossfit without a Fitbit-type tracker? Thank you.

    There are factors over "calories" that impact whether your body is getting to store fat or burn it. These factors include stress hormones, sex hormones, liver function, gut bacteria, thyroid function, insulin, the nervous system and emotions.

    Check out the ATP project podcast https://atpscience.com/podcasts/ it seriously changed my life
    Broscience. Especially on a site that sells a lot of broscience products.

    If you really think this, you 100% have not listened to any of the podcasts. Every single product is backed by science.. as per the name of the company. If you honestly think that something like gut health and hormones doesn't affect weight I cannot understand how you studied nutrition

    So I had to look. LOL. OMG. That's not a product store, it's a broscientific woo factory of derptastic proportions. Absolutely craptacular.

    OP, don't even waste your time clicking on the link to that site. The only place any of those things will help you lose weight is in your wallet. That stuff makes Dr. Oz look like a nutritional genius by comparison.

    Are you eating quite a bit of wheat and/or dairy? What about sugar and salt? Have you tried cutting out wheat or switching up the makeup of your calories - it could be about the quality of your calories, not the quantity.

    If you understood what a calorie was you would know that they can't have variable quality standards.
