Please help. I've been exercising 6 days a week for 1 hour 15 minutes. I do dumbbell (4kg/8pounds - 7kg/16poinds) full body workouts 3 times a week. 1 day spinning, 1 day HIIT run/walk and the last day tennis. I have toned really nicely but I've not reached my goal weight. I was eating 1650 per day and lost 12pounds but I hit a plateau and decided to set my activity level at inactive which reduced my calories to 1410 hoping this can shake things up a bit - but now I feel so tired. I don't feel energyless but I just feed tired yet with only 1410 I can't afford not to excersize coz I need the extra calories to play around with. Should I slow down, take a break or just continue. Please help coz I still need to lose 10 pounds to reach my goal weight.

    soooooo are you using a food scale and weighing everything? I mean, literally... everything?

    You're not limited to either 1410 or 1650, you know. You can pick a number in between those two.

    You might also want to select one of those 6 days and just walk. There's something to be said for 1 day off and 1 day of active recovery (activity where you're "smelling the roses" like walking).

    What are your stats? Height weight age gender
    You might be trying to lose too fast. The closer to goal the slower it goes.
