Chevrolet Corvette Stingray C7 Forum - View Single Post - NEW YEARS RESOLUTION WEIGHT LOSS THREAD 2012

I'm slowly remembering why I hate my cutting phase. The fat loss come so slow now. I actually "gained" a half pound this last week somehow. Obviously I didn't really gain anything, but I realized that carb cycling is needed now

My body is stuck at it's "comfortable fat level", so it's time for a little more coaxing. I'm doing a re-feed day today. Another 1/4 cup oats this morning, another 3/4 cup of pasta with lunch, and another 4 ounce of sweet potato with dinner. Hopefully that'll help coax my body back into doing what I want it to do.

I know it's not a calorie issue. My diet didn't change, and I added an extra two days at the gym (both cardio days). That means that most likely, my daily calories are now too low for my body to want to cooperate. Ran into this last year too, but I don't remember hitting it quite so early. Gawd I hate this sometimes...
