    Logging calories in, calories out (CICO) can get you there!

    Hi!

    The good news is that, whether you're trying to lose 10lb or 100lb, the mechanism of action is the same: eat less than you burn. That said, if you are already within the normal weight range for your height, you might look into what's called "recomposition" or "recomping" - there are threads about it if you search for them.
