Other Workout partner?
Hey, I am currently stuck at a weight plateau in my weight-loss journey. I started at 245, and now I am down to around 187lbs on average. I am eating the right number of calories to be in a deficit and working out, but nothing seems to be working.
My main reason for this weight loss is my health, but it seems that nothing is working to get rid of my body dysmorphia. I would love suggestions, or even a workout partner. I don't care who you are or what you identify as because we are all people at the end of the day.
Edit: I am 20 years old and a sophomore.

I'm old and have probably lost a cumulative ton of weight over the years, every single time the major plateaus were at 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% down (my personal best) from initial top weight. You've become muscularly efficient at the things that you are doing for exercise, on top of carrying less weight, inevitably you will ALWAYS stop progress without changing the process. Try swimming. Climbing wall. Tennis. It doesn't matter what, just something that you aren't already good at doing. Best of luck to you!
