Weight loss plateau

[arkmuscle]

I've reached a weight loss plateau. I'm 190 pounds and 6 feet tall. I eat a very very strict diet and cant seem to lose the last 5-10 pounds to get really cut. I lift five days a week (Chest,back,legs,shoulders,bis and tris) and do cardio at least 20 min a day for 5-7 days. My diet almost every day is the following:

Breakfast
5 egg whites and 1 yolk
1 package weight control banna nut oatmeal
cup of coffee, no sweetener

snack-half handful of almonds

lunch
1 turkey salad-all veggies, no cheese with fat free italian dressing
1 apple

snack
handful of carrots


dinner
2 cans of tuna
2 pieces of whole wheat bread
package of steamable veggies

or salad again

before bed
1 container of yogurt

any suggestions on how to lose the last bit of weight I need for spring break?

Fat is your friend, you need more of it. what are your daily macros?

[arkmuscle]

macro carbs or fats?

How long have you been at the same weight? Your calories certainly look low enough by guesstimation, but do you estimate/count daily calories currently?

I would take a break for a week and eat at maintenance. Then go back to your diet. You'll most likely start losing weight again. It always works for me.

I've been the same weight for almost three weeks now. I count my calories everyday and its around 1800 cals daily.

1800 give you alot of room man... go down to 1700-1750, just make sure to get your protein in and adjust your calories intell you loose weight... easy as that.
