Dieting questions/protein intake

I've been in a deficit and lifting for 6 months, and I've lost 30 lbs. I haven't tracked any macros and feel like I've hit a stump. Could I simply be lacking in protein, and that's why I'm not seeing any more progress? I do progressive overload lifting 4 days a week. How important is it in my phase to be tracking everything I eat rather than just calories?

Anyone else tear out new flooring

We our renovating bedrooms and after installing lvp in 2 of 3 bedrooms we realized we hate it and want carpet. We can feel all the imperfections in the subfloor and it's not a cozy feeling either. So we're gonna pull baseboards and pull the flooring and install it downstairs in the rec area. I feel like an idiot but better now than trying to live with it.

4 months in

4 months into my journey, and my goal is to lose 10 more pounds. I'm just lifting 3-4 times a week and a calorie deficit. I feel so much better than I used to.

First time installing floor

We recently started renovations in the bedrooms and didn't realize until we finished that we don't like the finish on the planks. It feels too matte/dry. Is there anything we can do or just have to live with it?

One month period on combo pill normal?

I was on the mini pill after giving birth but found my periods and hormones to be too eradic, so I went back to the combo pill after breastfeeding. So far, I get my period every 6 weeks, but it lasts about a month. The brand is tri-cera lo. The doctor said to continuesly take each pack with no break ( these don't have the sugar pills ). Is this normal? i feel like my body should be adjusted after 5 months. I was on them before birth and everything was fine.

Roof rack mounting solution?

I bought a roof rack for my 2007 crv, but they didn't include hardware. After some back and forth, they just gave me a refund and said, "Keep it." Problem is it requires special hollowed out like bolts to mount to my roof studs. How can I securely mount this. Thanks

27M I've been in a deficit and lifting for 8 weeks, and I've gone from 251 down to 231 pounds. I had a high cal weekend and ate all the old foods I used to. I'm finding it really hard to continue my deficit now.

I replaced my compressor, did a leak test, and the system held pressure for the 2 hours I tested. I did a refill with leak dye and had cold air for about 2 weeks then the system was empty again. Tried to find a leak with a uv light at night but no signs. Where is my refrigerant going?

It's my first kayak and I really enjoy it but due to the seat I can only do 2 hours on it. I was wondering what would fit best in there. Preferably stadium seat style.

I have a 2007 crv, and it's a beater. I'm not really looking to spend $200+ for a roof rack and kayak mount. I'll mostly be taking it to my local lake, which is 10 minutes away. Any ideas appreciated
