I'm looking to drop body fat. Currently at 23%. I recently adjusted my calories from 2100 to 1800. I lift about 5 days a week and do cardio the other 3. I guess I don't know where to start to learn about dropping bodyfat. Any help would be appreciated

try a high protein diet.
I am currently on a high protein diet. I usually shoot between 150g and 175g daily. I don't know if I need to increase that but I feel its hard to get that much protein and still stay within my calorie goal0 -

What's your cardio like? HIIT tracking is AWESOME for fat loss! Also, how's your sugar content? Sugar is a fat loss killer! Also, how long have you been doing this for? I know with fat loss it can seem like it takes forEVER to see results but as long as you stay consistent you'll start to see progress over time, take lots of photos!0

I see a lot of protein bars which are high in carbs and probably sugar. You should probably find a better source of protein. I use an unflavored no sugar added protein powder when I have trouble hitting my protein levels.0

yes I've read it and that wasn't a very productive thread. mostly my fault0 -
Maybe just adjust your timeframe expectations. If you're working out and eating at a deficit, you'll drop body fat.0

Ummm....well, sounds like you're eating at a deficit of calories...thus you will drop body fat. That is all. That is how you do it...it just takes time.
Also, keep in mind that the closer you are to a healthy BF%, the tougher and slower it's going to be. People can quite literally spend years working on their gut.0 -

8 days in a week? What is this black magic?!0
