Hello all, Im new here as well as being new to being diet conscious. I am 5'10 and currently weigh 166 pounds. Now I am fairly active being a stay at home Dad. However I have noticed recently I am starting to get a little soft around the middle and im not getting any younger (37). I recently started using MFP, and Im currently doing 1940 calories a day. I am also running 4.5 miles 3 days a week and doing calisthenics every day. Im really trying to get that body I've always wanted.

My question is the following: Obviously, I'm not overweight but my goal is to reduce the fat percentage on my body. Am I going about this the right way? Im very sore...lol...and hungry...Is it important for me to hit that 1940 intake everyday? With the excersise Im up around 2600 a day and I havent been eating that much, is this bad?
