I'm struggling to get a straight up answer from the "experts" and there's too much ideology on this subject. Since I know you'll be honest and you've obviously done your research on this subject, I'm asking you what you think of the following or what has worked for you. I'm currently weighing 124 lbs and trying to "lean out" with the goal of reaching 115 lbs. I eat at a deficit. My daily calorie intake is 1200. I workout 6 days a week (I lift and do moderate cardio). My biggest struggle at THIS TIME is this: I watch my protein macro and it's s bit of a struggle to eat 100-120 grams of protein while keeping my fat macros at 20%. On an average day, 30-35% of my daily 1200 calories ends up being fat. My question is, does it matter for leaning out? I'm losing about .5 to 1 pound a week but I still look kinda "thick" albeit, fit, if you know what I mean. Will the "fat" intake part of my diet keep me from looking leaner?0

It doesn't matter how much fat you eat so long as you are in a caloric deficit. Many people lose weight eating 40% or more of their calories in the form of fat. Just stick to your deficit and you'll be fine.

Im only 16 in highschool and 5'8 my mom is about 5'7 and dad is 5'6. I weigh 160 lbs and i want to lose weight and be fit (130) but i dont know if that is appropriate at my age. I also want to grow taller,but to grow taller i have to eat alot. At the same time i want to lose weight. What should i do? Will dieting affect my height? Should i start working out and dieting until im 18? I exercise and i do 15 minutes of vigorous boxer style jumproping everyday, but not it has gotten boring and i feel no change. What should i do? Thanks0
