I dont care how much weight is on the scale too much, cause i know there are many many other factors, i used to be 179lbs and 20% body fat, so the scale doesnt say everything! (ive bee nreading these boards for a couple years). My problem well i want to lose body fat, get toned, even if mybodycomp says 14% i really dont look good in jeans at all. I need advice for diet (maintenance after is different), Im planning on doing weights 3-4 times and cardio 3 times a week. Is this good?

I periodically measure bodyfat for members at my gym and A few times I have plugged the numbers into mybodycomp and compared to what I got with bf calipers and found that mybodycomp was higher. Diet is simple. Lean meat, whole grains, fresh vegetables and fruit, and healthy fat. bbifit has a list of food that is o.k.
