Not Losing with Cut

Uncategorized Oct 15, 2020

Question: When I calculated my TDEE, it was 1996 calories. At 20% deficit, I got to 1594 calories/144 P/133 C/54 F. I have been in a cut for 2 weeks and haven't seen any progress on the scale. I work out 6 days/week doing a mixture of weights and cardio on alternating days. I am wondering if I need to remove more carbs? Fat? It's hard enough getting in the protein, so I can't imagine adding more to that.

Answer: Great question and this truly needs some back and forth conversation/coaching. You mentioned no progress on the scale, what are your measurements doing? The scale is one tiny part of the picture and doesn't accurately show how your body is responding. How consistent have you been with hitting your numbers? I recommend watching module 4.1 and 4.2 on how and when to adjust your macros. If you still have questions after watching those modules, I encourage you to post in the private Facebook group so you can get a higher level of coaching.
