I'm really struggling with my weight. I've been cycling daily, but the scale seems stuck at 60 kg. I want to get down to 54 kg and I'm not sure where to start with my diet. Do you have any advice on a diet plan that could help?

To support your daily cycling routine and achieve weight loss, focus on a balanced diet with calorie control, incorporating protein-rich foods (lean meats, fish, eggs, legumes), complex carbohydrates (whole grains, fruits, vegetables), and healthy fats (nuts, seeds, avocado), aiming for a daily calorie deficit of 500-750 calories to promote weight loss, while also ensuring you're getting essential nutrients.
