T-13 and counting
Weight is relative. I have lost 17 lbs eating clean, adding cardio and being more disciplined. I may give up some mass gain but by trimming the protein back some I am realizing I have a very slow metabolism. Eating about 1200 cals or less a day 60% protein, 30% carbs and 10% fat the pounds are melting away. Yet, there is more to be done. Considering that my bone structure says an optimal weight is 190! But, I will see. When I get to 5% BF with continued cardio, diet and lifting I will see what I weigh and take it from there. So, if you are borderline hypothyroid with a low BMR cutting hard on the calories may work for you too. I have noticed that my stomach size-what I can eat-has decreased dramitically as well. That is a good thing. Oh, the best news so far is that my 34" jeans fit well and no "dunlop disease." Well, actually I squeezed into a pair of 33" but I may have to go get my jeans altered or they will fall off my butt.
