Pseudonym Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 Hey Nmilo, good plan on keeping the journal. What's your current BF%? I guess we'll see when you post pics. Like Maccaz says, 1500cal seems really low to me. I'd be concerned that such a drastic caloric deficit is not going to help you retain muscle. How have you arrived at that number?
