[QUOTE="backyardsniper, post: 1106439, member: 20657"] Changing the eating plan up a little bit. After talking to some guys who are pretty seriously into the workout and fitness business, apparently I am not eating enough calories to support my Lean body mass. They recommend 2500 calories at least for a guy my size to lose 2-3 lbs a week. I am also coupling this with a pretty intense lifting program so I do want to be able to support my lean muscle.
