Still sick. Totally a bummer when the scale hovers or goes up when you have been in a deficit. So annoying.
It may just be that between water retention caused by illness and your weight reduced state, in general, your maintenance range is in the 1400-ish calorie window unless you're actively burning more. Building lean mass will help, but I wouldn't say that is off target for your current weight range (with your history, I have this issue as well.). You may not be at much of a deficit for your body's current energy needs, the more weight you have lost the less accurate the BMR formulas tend to be,
ReplyDeleteOr your body just need a break. That's the simple answer ;)
