So I can’t seem to break 200 lb marker and wanting to lose 10-15lbs in a few months. I need advice as to what to try. I believe I get about 120g protein through food daily. Is this my issue? I don’t eat until lunch and have a coffee w zero sugar in the morning. I always eat a perfect macro lunch. Meal prep. Dinner isn’t super clean but never bad. Usually a protein and veggie. Snack at night might be a few cookies or something small. Maybe a few bowls of cereal. How can I improve. I heard ab insulin resistencr and didn’t know if that is occurring or is it the lack of protein ? What items are good to eat at night to get the metabolism going. I generally workout 3-4 days a week. Lifting and working out for 17 years consistently
 
“A few bowls of cereal” adds up quick!

Ask me how I know 🤣

A cup of oatmeal mixed with a scoop of whey protein and some cinnamon is a good option I use a lot....(I use hot water usually from a keurig like the middle setting if I remember correctly) ...Microwave makes it cake like which is good too.
 
Yes, oatmeal is about the healthiest carb there is! I go with Quaker Oates 1 minute.
It’s a pretty satisfying ‘meal’ that can also reduce cravings...What I described is the ‘base model’ lol...

You can add raisins, craisins, cashews, peanut butter...(I’ve also dumped in some liquid egg whites for a lil extra protein)

It’s not a bad breakfast or pre workout either.
 
Agreed with what others have to say. I'd even recommend starting the day off with some oatmeal and protein powder. Then you're lunch looks good. Try not to snack during the day and late at night.

I’d recommend using the FitBit app to track your calories and macros; that way you’ll have a better sense of where you should be in relation to your BMR and TDEE. Plus, the app is easy to use as it allows you to scan food labels for easy data entry. I’ve been using it for 3 years and it works like a charm.
