How to put on weight (but continue to lose fat)

torizia

Hi all,

I'm a clear example of 'skinny fat', and have been eating healthy and exercising for the past 6 weeks. As a result, I've lost 11lbs and am down to 103lbs - which is just into the underweight category for my height (5'3).

I still have lots of fat to lose off my thighs in particular, but am tiny elsewhere. My goal is to end up at around 110lbs, but to have more muscle and less fat. Since I am currently losing weight, should I continue doing what I'm doing and then try to build muscle once the fat is reduced, or should I be doing something differently to build muscle now?

I'm currently aiming for 1200 calories per day (eating back exercise calories) and am doing the following:
- 30 day shred (currently on day 6)
- 2 cardio classes per week (body combat and spinning)
- 1 weight class per week

Any help would be appreciated
