Am I plateauing?

hey!

I think I am plateauing and tipps on how to progress in this situation would be very much appreciated.

Long story short: I've gained 6kg (13lbs) one year ago and now want to drop it but could not challenge the number on the scale since one year.

currently I weigh 71kg (156.5 lbs), I'm 170cm (5'7')

I started out with changing my nutrition first, but didn't get any results - so, november until april, I did cardio 3 times a week (running 6km outdoors (3,7 miles)) and I noticed that I got hungrier but was not confident enough to weigh myself.

Since May I measure everything and track it all, my current routine is Natacha Oceane's CUT program - currently, I'm in week 5, I do one hour of plyometrics, upper body, lower body and full body, one day of cardio (cycling) + 20 minute HIIT sessions – I'm not afraid of lifting heavy, I work out as hard as I can. I'm planning on continuing with this program until I reach my goal (either GW (~62kg / ~135lbs or I want to fit in a specific pair of pants of mine (a 90s mom jeans for people with no butt :p).

I have lost several inches, my measurements at the moment are:
waist: 66cm (26 inches)
chest: 74cm (29 inches)
hips: 92cm (36 inches)

My weight still is the same (71kg / 156.5 lbs) and I am afraid of gaining more weight. I track my food intake since 60 days (with "Lose it!") and my daily calorie budget is 1.670, I'd say 90% of the time I remain under. I know you should not pay too much attention to the number on the scale but I am so frustrated and ashamed. I really want to at least go beneath 70 kg. I thought about adding more cardio to the routine I am already doing and increasing my proteine intake / starting to track my macros.

What are your thoughts about this? Any other tips?

All the best,
F

P.S. I'm 22 - no idea why my profile says 48 :)
