    Howdy!
    27 years young
    5'10, 165 lbs.


    I've been off and on with my nutrition and training, but due to a recent wrist injury I've had to take time off from lifting. That onset brought me back to the importance of nutrition and how it affects our body. Since I am limited to just lower body workouts and abs, I have to be even more careful about watching my Macros. I have also never had full 6 pack (occasional 4 pack here and there) but now I am on a mission to achieve a single digit body fat percentage before I reach my 30's!!

    Here are what my macros are for those that are interested:

    TDEE(Total Daily Energy Expenditure) = 2700cal (approx.)

    Carbs = 184g
    Fat= 70g
    Protein = 184g

    Each week I steadily reduce my caloric intake by 100-200 calories to continue to maintain muscle mass but slowly decrease body fat. I have days where I try to consume more protein than carbs for better body fat reduction. As long as I am below my TDEE I will definitely see results. It just takes time. A lot of time. Most people consider me skinny but body fat takes a while to really remove and remove correctly. I emphasize muscle mass as a crucial part of reducing caloric intake SLOWLY. I have been active on my diet for about a 5 weeks now. I plan on being at this cutting rate for about another 15-20 weeks. Comments, crits, appreciated and good luck to everyone!

    Hey I'm Whitney. Im 27. I just had my third baby 10 weeks ago. I'm almost at my prepregnacy weight at 165 but I want to go 18 lbs lighter than that. I'm 5'8. I realize that older you get how much harder it is to lose. My previous kids the weight dropped off but this little guy changed all that lol. I'm 168 lbs and looking for support to keep me going. Feel free to add!

    I ran away and decided it'd be a good time to get bigger instead of smaller!

    Few more weeks though and I'm back to the losing game.
  • (ahh at the later end of the twenties) 28 and only just now starting to figure out this healthy. Great that people start to get into this at a younger age. just trying to research some good meals to try out.

    Hi! I turn 23 next month. I first joined almost 2 years ago to lose the 15lbs I put on in college. I lost every thing (and then some) and still wasnt happy. I was on a 1200 calories/cardio 6x per week diet.

    In the last year I've reformed myself! Im eating 1700-2000 cals a day, follow 40c/30p/30f and i lift HEAVY. I am not looking to lose weight & don't mind putting some in while getting my BF% into the teens.

    I welcome requests from others (male & female) are who doing similar!

    I'm fairly new around here. Have had an account for a while but just in the last few weeks started to use MFP. I'm 25 and looking to be healthier. I would ultimately like to loose around five more pounds but if I don't or I gain from muscle I'll be happy. I want to feel healthy and have an outside to match. I don't just want to be skinny and squishy, I want to be lean and toned. Feel free to add me, I could use motivation and I'm pretty good at being positive!

    Hello there!

    I am 21 and just had my second baby 2 weeks ago and I have about 59 lbs to lose to hit my GW! About 20 more to go to hit my first milestone. :)

    Definitely adding! :)

    I'll be 21 in about two weeks and I'm looking to get back on the wagon. I lost 40 lbs and gained 10-15 back, so I'm hoping to get back into shape and feeling good! Especially when I'll be of drinking age soon :)
