My goal is to be about 18% BF since that's what doctors often call "superb" and that's what I believe is perfect for me.
I tried to google up pictures to get a better idea of how you look with that amount of BF (yes, I also know this depends on the person etc.) but it was hard to find. I hope you girls here could post pics of yourself to show us? :-)

    I think I was around 17-18% here.

    Thanks :) I just do 20/4 IF and lift. Really though, the most important factor in weight loss/fitness is time and patience (especially for fitness). I did four months of a strength based program (5/3/1) then started eating big and went on to a hypertrophy program (DC) and I'm almost 2lbs away from my cutting goal weight. Once I lose those last two pounds I'm taking new pics :)

    Awesome results! That's what I'm aiming for! Now I'm even more sure 18% is a perfect amount of BF! I can't wait till I get there!
