Thanks @steveko89 that has been a massive help I will just keep eating at maintainance and lifting with progression and give it time
-
Thank you that makes a lot of sense so if I just eat at around maintainance and lift heavy I should lose the last few bodyfat % as I build muscle slowly ?
-
I’m still holding a little body fat around the mid section so still have a bit to lose hard to tell what is lose skin or the last few lbs
-
Just to add I’d say I’m about 15/17% body fat from visual indications
-
I have just taken measurements this morning and I have lost 5cm off my waist (can’t remember when I last measured maybe a month ago but my weight has stayed the same between 10st7 and 10st8 in that time. I don’t lift weights I walk a lot and obviously the exercise I get from my job
-
Think this might be the best approach mfp gives me 2790 for maintain at very active so will just eat at that all week and hopefully the days I work will balance out and make the small loss I need
-
That’s what I was wondering I work 9 hours a day lots of heavy lifting and pulling of pallets on pump trucks around 15000 -18000 steps a day
-
I should add I feel like I am losing weight just not showing on the scales
-
Thanks for all the reply’s I feel like I understand it a lot more now! I guess it’s the slight freak out of being in a deficit for so long eating more seems kind of scary somehow haha
-
Thank you I did read this but was still confused about how it actually works with no deficit and if i should still be eating back my excercise calories as I had been
-
I should add I have been dieting since September last year and working out recently started lifting heavier weights and eating at a 250 cal Deficit per day but I can’t seem to get below 161lbs for the last few weeks
