Hey guys,
Currently:183cm (6ft) and 118kg (260 pounds)
December last year I underwent sleeve gastrectomy and in 10 months I have lost 150 pounds so really happy. Yes, I was super obese :D but now I am training 4 days at the gym with a PT and 1 day of golf on the weekend.
I am getting so much stronger, squatting 100kg-105kg with good form, dead lifting well, my back is getting strong and same with my arms. I have a goal weight of 95-100 kilos as that was the weight I was when I was super fit, athletic and strong.
I am currently consuming on average 1200 calories per day including on the days that I am training My weight fluctuates a bit but for the last month or so has been around the 120kgs-118kg despite training hard, eating clean, drinking loads of water and being very active.
My questions are:
1) Is it possible for me to be gaining muscle/size despite being on such a low calorie deficit?
2) Does my body think its starving itself still and retaining fat instead of burning it?
3) Do I have to change my macros to kick start or aid my weight loss progression? My macros at the moment are 100-110g lean protein, 60g carbs and 15 grams fat.
I am getting so much stronger, getting shape and still good size legs, I am just wandering if its worth taking any supplements or any other things I can do to aid my weight loss or am I being stupid and greedy knowing I have already lost 150 pounds in 10 months and I am by far the strongest I have been lol.
Thanks guys.
