I can train like a beast but my diet sux :(

Me too! seriously took me a long time to get a handle on things. Here's to you finding it faster than i did;) LOL

In the Army they preached losing fat/gain muscle was all about physical training. They never touched diet. I then took that past my days in the Army and put fat on... fast. 45 years old, 40% body fat and wondering what I was going to do. I then learned you gain muscle in the gym and carve abs with a spoon. Ding! A light went off in my head. Here I am four months later, down 38 pounds and not a lick of exercise.

I am now trying to following a version of paleo (the Wild Diet), no empty processed foods, no sugar, no grains and doing great. Looking at the macros actually makes the calories just fall into place. I must admit, I really don't look at the macros either. I know the kind of food I should eat and stay away from the other stuff. Well that and Intermittent Fasting. Can't wait to get my body fat percentage down so I can go back to exercise (my feet are shot). Started at 40%, down to 30% right now and my target is 18%.
