re: Weight loss 50 pounds: UPDATE: Consuming 3000-3200 calories/day the last 10 weeks Page 6

Well you started too low. Now where you gonna go when you stall. It's fine now, just ride it out and you can slowly reverse when you stall.

You always want to start at the highest you can to lose weight.

For most people that work an office job TDEE is right at 12.7*BW. Almost everyone is between 12.5-14. figure that number out, subtract 500 and that is about where you need to start daily. We don't include exercise calories in tdee.

Especially in keto, people tend to be able to have less metabolic slow down in my experience (just my experience as studies don't bare this out completely), so we are able to start calories higher. When you stall, lower by 200/day or increase neat or Conditioning. Do that everyone you stall for two weeks until you get down to 1500 Cal's. A male shouldn't be taking in less than that unless they are really small especially if lifting like they should be. At that point when you stall again, you reverse out of it, adding 200 Cal's every couple of weeks.
