Hi my name is Giovanni I’m 22 currently weighing at 280 at 5’7 and I’m trying to lean out because I have a lot of hard mass that I want to see what I built over the time of six years but I would just eat and lift and I wouldn’t eat too bad just mostly at home cooked meals I’m trying hard to get down to 260 as my first goal but I’m at a standstill at 280 my calorie intake was 2200 for two weeks and I still haven’t moved my workouts regimen looked like this Monday legs, Tuesday chest, Wednesday back, Thursday shoulders, Friday arms and all those five days I do 30 minutes of moderate cardio on the stairmaster on level six recently this week I moved my calories up to 2900 and I forgot to mention I tracked my calories via Apple Watch and it says on average I burn around 4000 cal a day I’m a cable technician at Comcast so I move around a lot and I train hard but am I training too hard? And also to mention I’m on GW-501516 and stenabolic to help my endurance and I’ll tell you I definitely feel the effects from those two because after a 10 hour day I can go on forever at the gym my macros right now look like this carbs- 369 protein-184 and fats 84 @2955calories can a nutritionist Or an experience person take a look over this and see what I’m doing wrong or what should I start at and work from there I’m currently going through a painful break up and I’m just very confused.

So I take it you are actually weighing every meal and not estimating? also dont take that apple watch at face value as far as calories burned. I have one but only to compare my activity from one day to the next.

Im a little confused.. you were stalled at 280lbs and in order to lose weight you added 700 calories to your diet?

Eat less do more cardio.. 30 mins cardio is nothing. double it. and take your calories down to 2000 but to be honest I dont think you were ever eating a true 2200 calories... thats like 2 hamburgers..
 
I am eating a true 2200 I track everything by scale and my fitness pal I’ll try 2,000 this time and see where I get I’m strict on my self and I’ve only had 2 cheat meal through out the month not cheat day I mean a meal

Should I turn cardio up to 45 min 5x a week?

Heading into summer i do an hour of cardio 6 days a week. its the only way i get abs. you are 280lbs and 5'7" my guess is that you are long ways from abs. But yeah in short if you want to lose weight you have to burn more calories and eat less of them. I personally dont eat a lot of fats. the only fat i eat is in red meat meals. I like to eat and fats mean less food.

You dont have to be a nutritionist to solve this problem. Other things you can look into that I use are alpha yohimbe caffeine and injectable L carnitine and the shredder both sold by amino asylum. There is also clen and T3 which can be very effective also but I dont use them any more. they make me feel like shit.

How much carnitine do you inject and how many times a week
 
Do you measure any sauces/dressings that you use? Calories can add up fast with sauces and dressing.

Also on my fitness pal if you're weighing cooked meat make sure you type cooked and use one of them that says cooked. Uncooked and cooked meat has different weights.

What does an average day of eating look like for you? What all foods are you eating on average?

What is your main carb source?

I meal prep every Monday so I mainly eat chicken breasts with sweet potatoes or Jasmine rice and I make three meal of those a day and in the morning I eat 300grams of egg whites with 1-2 scoop of protein sometimes I even drink the egg whites and at the end of the day whatever left I have to hit on my macros I’ll eat but usually it the protein

5-600 mg before cardio 3-4 days a week I usually pin that and shredder every other cardio session... You get to feeling like a pin cushion is you do it every day. but I use two slins and dimple them into my quad.
 
This has to be bullshit.
Your body burns calories just to exist.
At your height and weight you’d burn over 2000 just sitting around all day.

👀😳🤔

Im not understanding a lot of this. If your cardio is in line, you’re in a deficit…. you should be losing the extra weight.

At this point if this isnt figured out I doubt throwing compounds and AAS at it… is going to be the answer. It just sounds like something isn’t right. I would add HIIT training into your program and really pay attention to what foods you‘re eating.

welcome to the board
 
Assuming this isn't all bullshit, I had a buddy who was obese, 300 plus pounds, not fit, etc. Was around 6'2. Doc gave him some sobering information on what was in store for him if he didn't get his life and health in order. He was 38 at the time. Anyways, the guy got prescribed phentermine for a year (couple months on, some off, etc.), followed the dosing to a T, followed a strict diet and fitness regimen and the transformation was startling. Dropped a clean 80pds over the course of the year, had to buy all new clothes, etc. Granted, having gone from little to no fitness to a high powered prescription fat loss medication (a C4 controlled substance no less), concentrated workout and diet regimen, he would, of course, see dramatic results. He got the script from one of those medical weight loss clinics. Phentermine is anorectic and suppresses the hell out of your appetite, cranks you the fuck up and is to be respected. Buutttt, from what I have seen and studied, it def works if utilized properly.

Given your apparent fitness dedication and, what seems, kitchen discipline, perhaps phentermine could be of help to you.
