Hi All
OK, so I am doing ok on the fitness side of things, my diet isnt too bad, I could do with cutting the crap out which I really am trying to do. I have a decent amount of muscle but its hiding under a layer of fat.
Any top tips for busting the fat off and reducing my body fat % to reveal my muscles. I think my body fat % is around 21% already.
Thanks

Cut out all junk food COMPLETELY. You should even stop soft drinks. Maybe one or two a week.
Have as much healthy and filling veggies as you can --> broccoli, cauliflower, carrot, green beans, celery
Have a decent amount of HEALTHY protein with each meal. By healthy protein, I mean no processed protein of any kind.(I.e. no minced meat)
Have some fruits between meals. But not too many, remember, you are tying to lose weight.
Reduce Grains to as little as possible. No rice, no bread. Get your carbs from veggies and fruits.
Finally, to keep the hunger in control, divide your meals into six smaller meals. This means you literally have to stop eating a meal halfway through, keeping in mind that you will have another small meal in a few hours. Ideally every three hours.
Let me know how it goes.
