[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm 5.3, 24 pounds, trying to lose 10-15.  54 years old.  Been between 114-125 for the last decade. Definitely getting harder to lose weight as a begin menopause - I'm just now having hot flashes and fewer periods.

I am doing weights 3 times week and cardio 5.

The protein thing is new to me - I came of age counting calories, obviously,. So what should be my goal as I try to get to 112 or so and what should be my maintenance goal.

Thanks[/quote]

It's not the grams but the % you need to watch.

Macros for muscle building should be around even split 33/33/33 carbs/protein/fats.

To lose more fat and not build as much muscle bulk, you want to up the protein and fat %. So say 15/35/50 carbs/protein/fats.

To really lose fat fast, even go 5/35/60 carbs/protein/fats.[/quote]

Tell me you don’t have a degree in nutrition without telling me.

OP do NOT listen to this nonsense. [/quote]

2/10 troll attempt[/quote]

Considering the OP was a troll does it even matter?  [/quote]
