Diet help!

Hi everyone. I'm new to this so don't be to rough.

I'm looking to cut 20-30 pounds. Currently plateauing at 155 5'6. I've been trying to cut natural but having zero luck. I've tried everything from changing diet, routine, I've done keto and no luck. So I'm currently taking clen, 50 mg t3, and nova and still not having luck.

I actually just started a new work out routine.
Monday: legs/ calves
Tuesday: fasted cardio/abs/sauna
Wednesday: AM: fasted cardio
PM :shoulders, chest, back
Thursday: fasted cardio/abs/sauna
Friday: AM: fasted cardio
PM: arms
Weekend cardio/abs/etc or off

Diet: I basically have been doing a 40/30/30 with protein being the 40. I change it up daily but I get my protein from eggs, egg whites, chicken, lean ground turkey, deer meat, and protein shake. Carbs I eat in the morning and pre and post workout. I eat oats, sweet potato, and I've been recently starting to juice so a variety of green vegetables and carrots and been adding either a green apple or pineapple. Fats I get from the animal fat in protein, almonds, avocado, coconut oil. I try to eat around 1800 give or take. On the days I don't lift I try to cut the carbs down and cals.

I've done several different calculators and they all say around 1800 for cals.

Any advice would be great. Thanks in advance.

Diet and workouts look solid enough to not be plateaued if you truly have 20 to 30 pounds to cut. I guess I would get a full hormone profile included thyroid work up if you can't lose weight with your knowledge of diet and exercise and on t3 and clen. I wouldn't touch those two without blood work. Well, I wouldn't touch t3 without BW. I really wouldn't touch clen period anymore with what it's done to my heart. I'd rather be on a cycle to cut then touch clen. Nova? As in true Tamoxifen or Nova XT supplement? True Nolvadex is simply an androgen receptor blocker at the mammary gland site. It won't do much in the way of weight loss.

I've been in and out of the dr the past couple months. I've had blood work my thyroid was "normal" but they didn't do the test I requested. I also have estrogen dominance which is why I'm cycling thr nova.

1) Are you sure your clen and t3 are real?
2) I have never heard of anyone not able to lose when on both of those together. If they are real and you still can't lose I recommend bloodwork as something isn't right.

Yes I'm sure. My boyfriend is running clen and t3 also and is getting leaner.

As I stated before, Nolvadex is only an androgen receptor blocker at specific points. It will not balance out estrogen if you are trying to lower it. You would use Aromasin / Exemestane for that. I am NOT recommending that for you. You have much larger health issues at stake if you are using clen and t3 and dieting and training hard enough. I WOULD recommend to get the hell off them both until you figure out what is going on. Even then, there are better ways to shred. Safer ways at least. You are slapping your hormone balance enough. I'm not trying to belittle you, I would just be very concerned about things beyond weight loss if those compounds aren't getting the job done.

I think you need to consult with the doctors and do a blood test. With your diet and workouts you have to lose weight. Maybe you just need to give it more time. Maybe if you will be more patient you will see the result.

Yeah it does depend on time. Sometimes a month or so of consistently is needed to accurately gauge whether or not a specific diet is predictably effectively. However, I would still get a thyroxine panel and maybe full estrogen panel as well if it were me and the funds were right.
