Weight Gain

[rickb17]

Hello guys, I am super new to this so please be kind.

I have been working out for 4 months now, I used to weigh 224 lbs and now I'm 175 lbs I've lost a total of 49 pounds of fat. I plan on getting down to 160 but in the past 2 weeks my progress has completely stopped and I've started to gain weight. I am in a caloric deficit taking about 1300-1500 cals a day and I am supposed to be taking at least 2300 a day. I do a cardio session of 25mins everyday 10 mins straight running and 15 mins incline walking. I also lift 5 days a week for about 1 and a half hours after cardio session. I try to keep my protein to 40% carbs 45% and fat 15% throughout the day. I probably burn twice the amount of cals I eat in a day but I've still gained 3 pounds I super active and I don't understand what's going on. Please help!

You are 15.

Welcome to the hormones of adolescence.

Probably a combination of that and water/sodium weight.

You're eating more than you think and are at your new maintenance calories.

Thanks for the props but it's fairly simple to keep it together physically as you age if you're smart about things
