I've been training for years and my weight has been up and down. I am very uneasy about food and how i eat even though i only eat about 1200-1400 calories a day. I have a block against carbs and i reduce them where I can, I know this is a problem.
I'm 5 ft 9 about 67 kgs 21yr old female, i train 5 days a week and i am a uni student and work part time as a receptionist.
I train 2 weight days, 2 -4 HIIT/crossfit days. My heart rate is about 45-55 and bp is 100/70.
I have managed to drop to 66 kgs but i fluctuate so much. to even about 69 kgs. I am still trying to lose weight. (everyone says i don't have to ) but i want to. I want to drop body fat and i have been like this for about 2 months.
I do suffer from PCOS.
I am tire of training so hard and getting no more results. I am strong and fit but not where i want to be. I don't take supplements, would protein powder be an option?
This is a break down of my diet and training
pre training
apple and 1 table spoon of peanut butter
post
rolled oats and soy milk/ mixed berries and a teaspoon of honey
lunch
1/2 a cup of brown rice, 1/2 a cup of mixed veg and about 120grams of tuna./chicken
snack
apple and 1 oz of almonds
dinner 120-140 grams of meat steak/fish/chicken and 1 cup of mixed veg
late night is usually a handle full of almonds or peanut butter or soy milk.
By morning I am starving
weight days are traditional weight training
HIIT days are something like
10/9/8/7/6 etc reps of
burpees
push ups
pull ups
mountain climbers
split jumps
200 m row.
I've struggled with my eating for ages and I have no idea where I am going wrong.
Do you have any ideas? I know this is a very individual question but I am truly stuck
