    I gives you a pretty close guideline as to what you have to eat to reach certain calorie intake. After about 2 months of tracking, you can pretty much do it on your own, but I would definately recommend it cause missing a meal or certain intake of your required daily P/C/F can really slow your gains whether it be muscle gain or fat loss.

    Im not an expert on this stuff, but its a good place to start. Much of what I did I learned from reading in the diet section
    great job bro, glad you took the time to learn about diet, it always works out well for those that do

    What was your goal when you started? What were your cals/day while lossing weight?

    I bet you have turned your life around - really impressive.

    Well, I'll take this as a compliment if its that astounding. I didnt do anything spectacular aside from letting myself turn into that sack of fat. I was 170lbs 5 years ago. By the latest numbers, I only put on 8lbs of lean body mass during almost 6 months. Nothing special there.

    Thanx Phate. I knwo I didnt ask you directly, but I read a lot of what you posted to others. It helped me change up my diet where I thought it was lacking.

    I use to box years ago and I was always in decent shape till my mid 20's. All of a sudden, I looked in the mirror over Xmas holidays and almost cried. I had bigger t i t s then most the women Ive dated.

    Anyways, I work along side another member on here (knockout power) and he pointed me to this site and told me to read everything I could and when I had some questions, go and re-read till I got it. Then he put me on a routine and I started at the same gym as him.

    As for calories, I was around 2100 to 2500 depending on the week and intensity of the training.

    Originally I was thinking of cycling when I lost a bit of the weight, but it turns out Im pretty happy with what I look like now and a little more cutting should make what I have look pretty big. I dont think I want to bulk up more.

    Update

    well, roughly 6 more weeks of training and diet and this is where I got myself. Im not sure how accurate the electronic Bodycomp test was but it has been really consistant over my weight loss. It said 10% right on the dot. I was aiming for single digits before I left on vacation, but I think I did enough for myself. I will continue my quest for single digits, but for now I am taking a couple weeks to eat and train a little less vigorous so I can let my body stabalize after 7 months.

    Thanx for all the previous comments boys, it really helped during that laast 6 weeks of cutting down to 192lbs.
