I'm pretty frustrated. I have been cutting down from 270 for several months now. I started stalling out at 240 about 10 weeks ago. I'm now 230 @ 10-11% body fat( calipres). I'm trying to get to 215 so that I can cut water and make 205 for a sports event. I am supposed to be there by mid December but it looks like I'm screwed now. I was losing 2-2.5 pounds a week when I was taking in next to no carbs( 75 daily) but I was overtraining very easily. I upped the carbs and performed a bit better but my weight will not budge. I have actually been gaining over the past week. Take a look at this and help me out. I hired someone to help with my diet a few months back but just called it quits when I went several weeks without losing an ounce.

7:00 / Meal 1- 6 Egg Whites, 2 Yolks, ½ Cup Cream of Wheat(dry), 2 tbsp Fat Free Cream Cheese

7:30 / Alternate-:30 Lift + :20 Cardio(hiit) or :45 Cardio(moderate intensity)

8:30 / Meal 2- 2 Scoops Whey, 1/2 cup oats

10:00/ Boxing gym - 1.5 hours

11:15/ Meal 2- 2 Scoops Whey, 1/2 cup oats

12:30 / Meal 4- 5 oz Tuna , 1 Cup Brown Rice, 1 tbsp Fat Free Mayo

4:30 / Meal 4 - 10 oz Canned White Chicken, 2 cups lettuce, 2 tbsp Fat Free Cream Cheese

7:30 / Meal 5 - 2 scoops Whey w/ 3 tbsp Flax

Totals
Calories- 2485
Fat- 63 g- 24%
Carbs- 192g- 30%
Protein- 278 g- 46%

This is my Mon- Fri, Sat I only do cardio, Sunday I'm off and have 1 cheat meal, usually Lasagna

i am no pro but here is a shot i would do cardio on empty stomach
trade the yolks in meal 1 for 6 more egg whites and up the cream of wheat to 1 cup
meal 2 you need more time to digest meal 1
you need to eat brocolli or other green high fiber low gycemic carbs in meals 4,5, 6 if you hate veggies use benefiber in meal 6 also i would ditch the canned chicken major sodium and probably msg
i would also change your last meal to cottage cheese,or chicken or lean beef equal to your protein needs and no flax if steak is on that eve
eat more whole foods your losing thermic effect of your foods and banging your thyroid for it
add in a gallon of h20 and green tea extract 2 x's a day, guggul for thyroid support.
fish oil caps at last 2 meals better fat than your yolks.
you may want to throw in a cheat meal to wake up your thyroid just dont go over board.
just trying to help no disrespect meant i am not a pro but have really researched over the last while, your probably in much better shape than me, your on a timeline so i through in my 2 cents respectfuly as so many people have helped me. If i off someone please correct me.
you can do it.
