48. "Lost 110 lbs since last Feb, but been stuck for three weeks." In response to In response to 44
I'm 6'5", and started last February at 395 lbs. I'm down to 285 now. The weight loss has mostly been because of intermittent fasting (started out doing 16/8, and moved to one meal a day or a four hour eating window at most a few months ago.) I mix in longer fasts of 36-48 hours a few times a month. On the exercise side, I lift weights 3-4 days a week (mostly squat, deadlift, overhead press, and bench) and I do HIIT cardio 3 days a week.
The weight loss has been very consistent - every week between 2 and 2.5 lbs with the exception of one week when I was on vacation and it stayed flat. Until 3 weeks ago when I hit my first real plateau - for the last 3 weeks my weight has been the same +/- one or two lbs.
I have around 40 more lbs to go at this point, and I was expecting the rate of loss to slow down because after losing over 100 lbs I know my TDEE (total daily energy expenditure) has changed greatly. I haven't done any calorie tracking at ALL, so I think I'll start doing that to be sure I'm at a deficit.
