Okay, I will make this as short as possible. I have been back in the gym now steadly for 3 months, after a 6 month break, the first 2 months I had a semi clean diet, most days I would eat clean, but occasionally slipped with a cheat, noticed some fat loss but no changes in scale.
At 5'8 and 220, since my diet has been on clean now for a month, meaning no slip ups, I have a cheat meal once every two weeks, and that cheat is usually Hooters wings , so nothing TO extreme. I have stayed at 220 for months, what the hell am I doing wrong? I wouldnt complain about the scale because I know that really is not important, but my clothes are not changing either. It is very frustrating, even my SO who is a bodybuilder doesnt know what the hell is wrong. I am beginning to wonder if my thyroid is wacked, I have had a few test and I am slighty hypo, I am going to the DOC next week.
My diet looks like this :
8am: 4 egg whites 1 whole egg, 1/2 cup oatmeal
11am: after training 2 scoops of whey with glutamine
1pm: Chicken , fiberous veggies, brown rice or sweet potato
4pm: 1 scoop whey with 1 tablespoon natural pb
7pm: Chicken, or lean beef , veggies
10pm:1 scoop whey
I train 3 days a week Mon: Back/bis WED: chest/tris Friday:legs CARDIO
I do SS cardio after I train, except for leg day, I can barely walk, let alone get on a treadmill, the days I do not train I do 45 minute intervals on Precor. I was training heavy weight low rep 6-8, the past month I have done moderate weight with a higher rep 10-12.
I was told to add some PROP 50mg every third day, to assist with keeping my muscle and kick starting a little fat loss.
What the hell is wrong? I am not training for a comp, but i do want to cut before spring gets here, at the rate I am going i will not be cut anytime soon.
Any thoughts and advice is welcome.
