Hey guys hows it going? I used to be 110 kgs(243 lbs) and am now around 87 kgs(192 lbs), I've been working out for around 5 and a half months and I kinda feel like I've hit like a wall not letting me lose any more weight so wondering if anyone could give me some pointers as to what I'm supposed to eat or specific workouts do to.

Would really appreciate the help.

You're eating too much or you aren't doing enough cardio. If you know what your TDEE is then adjusting your diet shouldn't be difficult.

Why are you trying to lose more? How about making some gains

It's Bahrain. Just hover your mouse over it.

>What the fuck is Bahrain?

Not the slightest, Latvia. Must be what the guys over in Bhutan mention when they make jokes about obscure countries.

Basically, you've hit a plateau. I started around a similar weight and have been plateauing around 200 lbs, although I think I've broken through it. I'll give a few suggestions:

1) Consider recalculating your TDEE. As you lose weight, the number of daily calories needed to maintain your weight is also going down. If you haven't been readjusting as you've gone along, look into this. Remember also, that as you've been losing weight, the amount of calories you burn exercising has also gone down

2) How long has your progress been stalled? If it's under two weeks, it's possible you have some issue with water weight. Just keep plugging through it, and you should get a sudden drop one day.

3) Speaking of water weight, check how much sodium you're taking in per day. A huge amount can cause water retention. If you think you're taking in too much, lower your sodium intake and drink more water.

4) In terms of exercise, I'm not sure it really matters what you're doing so much as how the number of calories you're burning relate to your intake.

5) Some people report that even while their weight is plateauing, their measurements of their waist, chest etc. are still going down. Your weight is not the only indicator of progress.

You're going to encounter plateaus when you lose this much weight. You have to keep pushing through it and not give up.

I don't even like geography.

I'm trying to lose more because I believe that based on my BMI I am still in the overweight category, although, last time I checked I weighed around 93 kgs(205 lbs) and was in the obese category so I'm trying to get rid of the rest of my fat so that I could be in my normal weight level.

Bahrain is a middle eastern country, we have petrol, that's pretty much it…

It's nice to see someone else in the same position I am in.

I've never really calculated my TDEE because I don't really know how and consider it a bother to research(stupid of me, I know).

I drink about 1.5 litres of water a day and I don't really intake in much sodium.

I think this started when I started taking fat burner pills (LIPO6 Black Ultra Concentrate) because my original plateau happened when I was on them as well, although it just meant a stop in weight loss while fixing my figure so I think that's just happening again.

Thanks for the help, good luck.

> using BMI

use fat percentage you faggot, get a fucking caliper and start measuring your subcutaneous fat percentage.

Redo your macros, it's all about how much calories you're putting in. When you lose weight, you also need less calories to maintain it.

Look up Alan Thrall. His videos have detailed form tips. I've got a new powerlifting coach (Olympic competitor in his day), he put me on to thrall.

The fun part about it is that most of us Bahrainis don't give a shit about the revolution or the government, we're fine with our country the way it is.
