that's much better
but remember, you still need the fat. you don't want your fat intake to be too low.
just make sure that you're not loosing muscle. too much cardio can do that too.
you'll do fine. just see how your body responds to your diet and start changing things as you see fit.
i descoverd a couple things while i was dieting.
one of them was that i can't go by what the books say. i need to diet off more calories than someone my weight is supposed to. for 150lbs which is what i weighed at the time, i was supposed to stick around 2100 calories. but i was loosing muscle by the day and i hardly did any cardio. i also lost a lot of fat too though.
so, personally, if i were you, i would try the diet that you posted originally and if you don't loose anything in 2 weeks, start changing stuff up.
but you don't want to make drastic changes. maybe by subtracting 200 calories from carbs can be a first step.
good luck man. i wish you the best |
