I am 6'8 240, 31 years old. I began cutting in September at 273 pounds.
I work out 4x week for an hour (weights +15 min cardio, one day of just cardio on the 5th day)
It feels like my weight loss has stopped over the last few weeks. My lifts are increasing, but I am still trying to get rid of the small belly that I have worked so hard to get rid of.
My Diet:
Meal 1: scoop of protein, banana 200 cals
Workout
Meal 2: Two eggs, three whites, 1/4 oatmeal with a few raisins. 500 cals
Meal 3: Greek Yougurt, 1/2 piece of fruit 200 cals
Meal 4: salmon or tuna, bit of mayo, spinach salad, few nuts 550 cals
Meal 5: Lean chicken, spinach/dressing or mixed veggies 550 cals
Meal 6: Cottage cheese 220 cals
Meal 5: 2 scoops protein shake 220 cals
Total cals are 2440 and protein is right at one gram per pound of body weight.
So, what can I do to continue to burn this stomach? I have a great workout based around compound lifts. Are my cals too LOW?
I would be grateful for any tips/suggestions/thoughts
