After almost eight months, I have finally reached my goal of getting my BF % down to 15.

I started weighing in at 185 lbs with a BF % of 25. This meant that I had LBM of 138.75 lbs and BF of 46.25 lbs.

Reaching this goal took almost three times longer than I planned, but all of this time helped me to develop a better long term diet.

I am now at 157 lbs with a BF% of 15. This gives me an LBM of 133.45 and BF of 23.55. So, of the 28 lbs of lost weight, 22.7 was fat and 5.3 was mass.

I am going to spend the next few months, maintaining the 15% BF level and work on "clean bulking" back the muscle that I lost.

Thanks to all of you who commented and checked out this blog. It was an amazing motivator to know that so many people were paying attention. 

So far, I have reduced my BF by 36%. I lost two more pounds over the last couple of weeks. My weight is now down to 156 from 185. This is great!!

Unfortunately, I remain at 16% BF, so I still have 1% to go to reach my goal. I’m just going to keep at it, it’s got to happen eventually, and I like my current diet an exercise program.
