140 #, unless you grow more muscle.

Today weight = 157 bf % = 17.4 how much fat do I need to lose to get to 8%?

Currently, you have 157x.174 =27.3 lbs of fat
so if your BF was 0% you would weigh 157-27.3=129.7

but you can see how it is a tricky formula

So, I would guess if we half the 17.4(say to 8%) you would be around 157-13.5=143 lbs.

So me and hidngod concur.

157lbs and 17.4%BF = 27.3lbs of fat and 129.7lbs of lean mass

If you keep your muscle mass you should weight 141 lbs

that 16lbs of fat to lose

Yup in 16 weeks.

Do you know that posting photos (before after and in-between) is good for your motivation?

Apparently you suck at grammar too, don't be afraid to mix in a comma in your thread title
