I'm a 5ft6, 17 year old male, I weight 64kg/140lbs and according to my not-so-reliable scales I'm approximately 19% body fat.
My BMR is 1600 calories and I eat about 1400 calories a day, usually composed of a wholemeal wrap with chicken and avocado in it (400 calories), a salad with olive oil and balsamic vinegar (200 calories), chicken, rice and veg (300 calories) and anything else to fill up the last 400 (usually two snack bars).
I walk for about an hour and a half every day, burning 300 calories, making my total deficit 500 a day.
I want to get to 15%-12% body fat so I was just wondering if what I was doing should work and how long it should take to get me there? Otherwise what else should I do to get there/what should I change?
Thankyou for any help or advice.
