[quote=Anonymous]OP that’s odd. I have almost your exact stats in terms of exercise routine, and 1500 for me is definitely a deficit (though I would probably go a tiny bit lower if cutting.) But I am only 5 foot 1, and at 44, I stay between 111-113 lbs (maintenance probably around 1800). When I lost weight and toned up in my thirties after babies, I started lifting weights, and tracked my calories in an app. I still do that a couple times of year when or if my weight creeps up. All of which is to say that it does seem like you would be losing weight at 5 foot 7 if you are only consuming 1500 a day. Have you had your thyroid checked? Other possibilities: -You aren’t tracking food properly and need to start weighing/measuring with a scale. This makes a big difference. -You have been eating in a deficit for too long and your metabolism adapted. You can raise it again. Google “raising metabolism after long period of dieting” and you can find info on this. [/quote]
