Hi, you can try it this way. Start taking more proteins in your diet from natural sources. At the same time decreased the weight you lift regularly. Yes I mean decrease the weight, not increase. This is supposed to help by adding more muscle mass and at the same time maintaining the tone of the body. You can try this for 2 to 3 months to see the results. Also do not do weight training more than 3 to 4 days a week. Good luck.

try my suggestion above and try this eat 50 grams of carbs 150 grams of protein and about 150-200 grams of fat. your menu 3 egg cheese and mushroom omelet. lunch roast beef slices wrapped in colby cheese  dinner baked salmon, broccoli with butter and a salad with dressing. after a workout refuel 20 grams high quality protein ( small can tuna) a 3 ounce serving of meat or a protein shake made with whey and casein the amino acid leucine stimulates protein synthesis  also have 1 teaspoon of Mega BCAA from ProSource
a good snack is Macadamias (nuts) they don't need refrigeration they are packed with nutrients have mono unsaturated (good fats) and low carbs. try this first

P.S. lift 80% of what you can lift for 1 rep. then do 3 sets of 5-8 reps with a 2 minute rest between sets
