In December I decided I was tired of being heavy and in the past I have done wel with weight loss by introducing new things as I go.

I started with just diet and exercise before I hit a plateau.

Then I introduced a four mile interval jog which took about 50 minutes.

Then I started a diet of 300 calories 5-6 times a day while still doing the interval jog.

My interval jogs got better and up to 39 minute jogs. I even ran 6.25 miles in 62 minutes.

I am down 30-32 but appear to have hit another plateau. Any advice to maybe get past this next one.

(I should also note I only drink water and a glass of unsweet tea a day. I drink a protein shake with almond milk after every jog too). Thanks in advance!

What's your height and weight now and the weight you want to be at?

What kind of diet are you doing now? Just counting calories?

Now I am 5’10” 250-252 depending on the day.

I first set the goal at 220 but if I get there and want to go further I may keep going. But let’s just say 220 for now. Started at 282.

Current diet is 300 calories 5-6 times a day.

Interval jog each day on the weekend if work schedule let’s me schedule it during the week I will. Probably average 16,000 steps a day at work and work involves a lot of physical work.

Thanks I tried the HIIT this morning. The first few reps I was not really feeling much but after about seven minutes it caught up to me and definitely felt the burn by the end.

Im always a fan of keto. If you are working out regularly you can get away with a few more carbs so you dont have to completly cut out all breads. Really depends on your dicipline though because its not a great diet to do for less than a few months at a time. Low carb works well too its just a bit slower.

Less than 30 carbs a day for 2 weeks, then fast for 24 hrs.
