    New here. 22%BF. Tips?

    My fitness pal

    With the excuses and ready to commit.

    Well as long as you're hitting your macros you will lose fat given that you don't eat more than you burn.

    Is it a problem that I have high calorie meals in the morning but I don't have the chance to workout until 4:30?

    Depends on who you talk to. My opinion is meal timing isn't important until you get into the elites.

    you should be losing if your calculations are right. When you become stagnant, drop some more carbs. Easy

    I would drop the starchy carbs at breakfast and lunch. Keep them around your workout. Unless you start to feel flat, then carb up a little and get your energy back, monitor your food and results closely, see how your body responds, take notes, give it time and persevere. 22 to 15 is no problem.

    Thanks you Mr. FQ, appreciate it...So basically just protein in the morning and lunch? And have a carb filled preworkout meal?

    And carbs after workout to refuel, right ?

    Swap protein shake at 10pm to something more solid too, cottage cheese or these protein yoghurts
