Plateau at 1200 calories?? Can someone help me?
Hey guys so ive been in a 1200 calories deficit since January and successfully lost 15 pounds since! Super proud of myself bc if was fs hard at first but now its a lot better. I’ve found my body to honestly just feel full after a day’s worth of 1200 calories, unlike before where I felt like I would be starving when I fell asleep. Here’s the problem. I’m about 109 pounds now (5 foot girl so I still want to lose some weight to lost the chubby belly and thighs) and I haven’t lost any weight for a month. I haven’t changed my eating at all and I’ve been using the lose it app to track everything. I researched about it and I think I’ve hit a plateau but I didn’t even know that was possible at a 1200 calorie deficit.
I’ve heard I should eat at my maintenance calories but I’m worried I’ll gain back all the weight I’ve lost if I eat more. Not to mention it’s lowkey hard for me to eat more bc of how easily full my body gets now. I would appreciate any advice!
