320lbs down to 240lbs, weight loss stopped.

[Tyr01]

I let me self go and got up to 320lbs. So begging of last year I start my new eating regimen and work out route that i switch up often. But I've hit a plateau at 240lbs. Ive been stuck at this weight of months and I can't seem to kick start it. I got my BMI done today with the calipers at the gym and over all body fat is at 9.87% which she tells me is excellent but all the weight has gravitated to my gut. Everything else though is tight. My ideal weight is 190ish. Any good advise would be helpful.

Meals

Breakfast

4 egg Whites + 1 whole egg
1 medium advocado
(if I work out I swap out the avocado for 1/3 cup of oats with flax)
+ CLA, and Fish oil capsule

Snack

Hand full of dried fruit and nuts

Lunch

Romain Lettuce + Chicken breast and 2 tbls of extra virgin olive oil
A babybell cheese wheel
+ CLA, and Fish oil capsule

Snack (perwork out)

Ephedrine Stack
Small sweet potato
Portion of meat (fish, lean beef or chicken)

Post work out

Protein Shack
1/3 cup of oats
+ CLA, and Fish oil capsule

Before bed

1/2 cup of fat free cottage cheese

I drink a shit load of water

I'm working out 5 to 6 times a week doing heavy lifts, then 45mins of cardio but figured I would calm it down and do every second day only compound exercises and try to do 45mins cardio every day

Welcome to the board. Congratulations on
your loss. We need your stats to give
a more informed answer. eg;
Age, height, waist, legs, chest, arms,
neck, calves.
It sounds like loose skin, or the stubborn
remnants from your past or both.
You may want to consider the times you
do cardio, what you consider cardio is, and
how what your diet is meal to meal.
You stated above you are 240lb at 10%
With that much lean mass your body
should be a furnace.

Awesome dude. Just tremendous.

I'm a FFB (former fat boy) and I tip my hat to you.

Sorry I figured I would have forgotten to list something.

age 27
Height: 6ft

Anthropometric Measurements (inch)

Waist:42.6
Thigh:26.9
Calf:17.8
Chest:46.2
Neck: 17.4
Shoulders: 55

I'll toss in the skin fold measurements also.

Skinfolds(mm)

Tricep = 8.9
Bicep = 6.8
Subscapular = 21.2
Lliac Crest= 26.2
Medial Calf = 6.3

%BF (0.1051 x 69.4) + 2.585
= 7.29 + 2.585 = 9.87%

My cardio that I do is usually 30 mins of running, then 15 to 20 mins of either biking, stair master, or rowing. I rotate between those.

Thanks for the replies I appreciate it.

im not gonna say your diet is horrible.. but i think ur undereating.. and i dont think ur doing a refeed... that usually stalls weight loss pretty well
