Agreed. I plateaued and I exercise 6 days a week, yet I was only eating 1200 calories. I realized my deficit was away to big. I've been slowly upping my calories, 1400, 1500, now at 1600. Guess what it worked. Losing better than ever. Give it a shot, I was scared to do it.

The extra calories, are you upping Protein, veggies etc.

I'm not really upping anything in particular, but one think I've done is I have upped my protein by adding in a protein drink. I also aged in a trail mix, so upped healthy fats in the form of nuts. I had been slacking on protein and only getting like 70 gm, no I try to aim for 120 minimum.
