Fat bodybuilder wants to be thin bodybuilder

I am doing the same thing. I was at 205lbs. I want to get to 180lbs. I am currently @ 196lbs. It seems like a certain amount of cardio is critical to fat burning. The more cardio, the better. I am taking Nitro92 Extreme which is a zero cholestoral protein drink. I try to drink three per day, then one serving per day of low fat meat like shrimp or fish. This diet meets my protein needs so I am still building muscle. I try to go as vegan as possible on the other meals. Lots of fruit like apricots and pineapple and cooked vegetables with brown rice. If you do cardio and use a similar diet, I think you will have some good success. I have lost 9 pounds since I have been on this site, and am more muscular than ever. For some reason, the weight loss on myfitnesspal.com doesn't corelate with the weightloss on my scale. I think I am more active than I give myself credit for.
