hey everyone

I am 5'9 and currently 156 lbs. Over the past 5 months I have lost 10lbs. I was 166 lbs. I hope to lose that stubborn belly fat and my loves handles. I would say im currently about 20% body fat. I wanna get to about 12%. I do not wanna get that bulky athlete/body builder look, I enjoy being slim and toned. over the past few weeks nothing is happening. I feel like i need to change something but im not sure what.....

I really enjoy exercise. I love cardio and do about 45 mins medium intensity 6 days per week and i currently do a 45 minute full body weights sessions twice a week.

my diet is high in lean protein, fish, turkey, eggs. a lot of vegetables and, healthy fats and fruit. not a lot of carbs. maybe some brown rice.

what got you guys to your goal body fat precentage?

cheers.

ps i love chocolate and candy and am finding it really tough to avoid them. aieeeeeeee. help in this area is most welcome haha
