My previous coach dropped my calories as low as 1450 kcals, and even then, I stopped losing weight. I've tried it on 1200 kcals but also on 1750 kcals, but always with the same outcome: a huge plateau moment around 75 kgs followed by quitting. I've been so unhappy with how I feel in my body, and mostly, I just want to lose the fat to feel energized and be playful with my gorgeous daughter. I also want to feel confident in my body so that I can project confidence and ensure she won't ever feel insecure due to my own insecurities.
How would I know the difference between eating too much, which would explain the weight plateau/gain, versus still overtraining/under eating?
Every time I hit that 75 kg mark, I plateau for weeks on end and eventually quit, letting myself go (over and over again) up to 80 kg, starting the horrific cycle all over again. I've been doing that for three years now.
