Not dropping weight, but dropping clothes size.

I've been doing keto now for 3 months. I dropped some weight but really saw the drop in my clothes size. Currently 6ft 260lbs and feel like I have stalled completely. I do 2 miles on a 7 percent incline for cardio and lift heavy at least 4 days a week. Any suggestions how to get things jump started again I'd like to get into the mid teens for body fat.

    If you're not dropping weight then you are eating at maintenance.

    Drop a few hundred calories a day and start to see a small drop.

    The WOE doesn't matter.

    If you are getting smaller, wouldn't that indicate body fat is being reduced?

    You're putting on muscle mass and losing fat! Even if the number isn't budging, your clothes are an excellent indicator of how you're doing. At a certain point, you will start to see the numbers budge on the scale.

    Get a cheap digital food scale and start weighing your food. If you aren't losing weight you simply aren't in the calorie deficit you think you are in.
