So I’m 8 weeks into the life style change of diet and exercise. And for the past 4 weeks I am tired most of the time and just blah.
Quick stats:
38 Male
6’3”
336 lbs - started at 350 lbs
Calorie deficit is around 500 kCals
Exercise: 1 - 1.5 hours of strength training 5 to 6 days a week. 20-30 minutes of HIIT 5 days a week. 10,500 steps daily on average. Outdoor cycling 20 miles a week. My 6 year old just learned to ride without training wheels so he’s hooked to riding.
Diet: Protein average is 180 grams a day, sometimes more because I am a sucker for lean chicken and turkey.
Fat is 73 grams per day avg.
Carbs are 155 grams per day avg.
Sugar is 55 grams per day avg.
When I started this change I had energy for days, weight was dropping nicely, muscle mass was increasing steady so on and so on. I hit a plateau at 340 so I adjusted to the deficit and the weight has started coming off albeit slowly.
The past 4 weeks I have just been zapped of energy. Did anyone else experience something similar? If you did how did you get around it?
