    i lost 13lbs in the past 2 month, one pound muscle and 12 pounds fat. I measured it with a Omron body fat electronic calculator. I eat protein and was in Ketos and walked about 12,500 steps per day.

    I watch my macros, aim for 120-150g protein per day. 100g carbs. 50g fat.

    Aim for a calorie deficit of about 500 per day (averaged over the week)

    Plus weight training 4 x per week on a split upper/lower routine.

    Sorry, OP, that your thread was highjacked, but the Prancercise topic is just too cute to ignore. Thanks to others for posting the gif and the urls! Love it!

    Lifting heavy and I started supplementing with BCAAs. I'm currently in a calorie deficit and training for a half marathon. My trainer had me start BCAAs since allegedly they help spare muscle tissue.
