Protein and bf:/:

[dmk777]

Hey there , i need to get shot of some bf do you think I should drop my protein intake. I'm currently taking 150g a day may b cut to 100g? I understand it's supposed to be 1.2-2g per kg of lean body (I'm sure I read that on a thread on here) if that's the case I think I'm taking a little to much.
My bf:/: is 21.5 weights 157lbs lean body mass 62.8

Thanks people's any advice you can offer would be great.

Remember chika that you are building muscle and that muscle weighs more then fat. So do not rely on your scale.
Go online and check out AccuMeasure. I swear by mine.

FISH!
And for you I think its cheap too. Never fry it, always bake or broil it.
I use Fisl Oil caps cuz here fish is not cheap.
PM my pal RADAR and give him the full details on your diet. He will take good care of you chika.
