      I was curious if anyone knew how to use the IF calculator or knew about macros because I have been losing a little strength after 1.5 weeks of IF but I have seen fat loss also.

      6'5"
      183 Lbs
      19 yrs old
      n/a BF

      I want to continue my gains but also lose my remaining visceral fat. Lower back and lower ab fat.

      How many calories are you eating and what are you macros. Post a pic too, I doubt you're 6.5% body fat.

      Those are not accurate. Also, answer my previous question. How many calories are you eating and what are your macros?

      I havent calorie counted yet. I do like 100g from whey /casein shake a day, and 100g from chicken breast. Carbs I do whole wheat tortillas so like 100g from those and 100g from brown rice. Fats are usually about 70g from Peanut butter and other ****.

      200/200/70 it looks like

      If I'm losing a little strength could it be from not enough Protein or carbs? I can eat a lot, I just didn't want to overdo it.

      You said you were 6.5% bf, you don't know your calories exactly.

      Take Darth's advice and come back in a month.
