If you were tanking your metabolism by eating too little for too long, try eating maintenance calories for a couple weeks to reset your metabolism, then recommence with your diet, albeit with no more than a 500cal deficit from TDEE.

+1 for MyFitnessPal app. I've never had a problem training (love getting out on the bike or going for a run) but food control is 80% of losing weight and an app lets you manage this. You don't know exactly how much you're putting in your mouth until you start recording it.
