I am definitely trying to lose bf. The reason my fat intake is so high is because i thought that you either burn fat or carbs depending on which is the highest. If you have more carbs you get hungrier and therefore eat more. With the opposite happening if you have more fat. Plus my body is pretty sensitive to carbs. The only 'diet' that has ever worked for me was an atkins knock-off.
Anyways, cod and tilapia are my staples. I never eat salmon because i dont like it. I throw shrimp and tuna in on days im low on protein.

I actually never eat walnuts, i was on the go that day and hadnt eaten in 4 hours so i grabbed a handful to tide me over until i could get some real food. Plain almonds are what i usually have.

I will definitely try and see what i can do to lower the fat intake though. I worked on it today and my totals were

1014 cals
51.1 g fat
97.9 g carbs (45 g fiber)
60.9 g protein

came out to 42% (F) 35% (C) 22%(P)

So should I switch it and try to do more carbs versus fat to lose bf?
Thanks guys.
