My diet so far has been good old fashioned calorie counting, targeting a specific mix of macros.
Targets:
1800 calories per day
>= 30g fibre per day
50% carbs - 225g carb
25% prot - 112.5g protein
25% fat - 50g fat
Doing well so far, losing 1.4lb/week.
I just did some reading about IIFYM (If It Fits Your Macros) and since that's basically what I've been doing, I decided to try out the calculator on iifym.com. Guessing that my body fat % is 35% (which is probably too low), I got these new targets:
NEW Targets (after a bit of rounding):
1600 calories per day
>30g fibre
43% carb - 172g carbs
30% prot - 120g protein
27% fat - 48g fat
