After.....am I not eating enough?

Back up the program. Go back to what you were doing when the fat loss was still happening.

There probably are things you could do to successfully accelerate fat loss a bit, but in your case your body's reaction to the additional cardio would suggest this ain't it.

You could schedule some intermittent fasting if you want to try something to ratchet up the rate a bit.

Hmmmm....thanks you guys....I'll see what I can do.

Rather then a cheat, you could do a structured refeed. It's essentially the same concept as a cheat meal but you control it more then a cheat meal and still count the calories and adjust your macros.

I agree with Willow...more cardio is not always better. I've had that experience too where the weight started coming off again after I cut back cardio. You could push that back for a couple of days and see if that makes any difference as well.

It's hard to adjust myself to realizing that more cardio isn't always better - you'd think I'd know that by now, but I guess a lifetime of habit is hard to totally undo in just a few months.

I have switched up my workout times, and am making sure I am eating enough for this week (another habit I have had to break) - we'll see what happens. I have also added weight to my lifting program.....
