Yes. Nutrition is a science.

Can't tell if you're serious, but that may just have been the dumbest comment I've seen in my life...

Point is that you might try the recs on this board, but none are coming from a qualified health professional that takes your health history into account and has a professional job to know about what foods does and how the body reacts. While people may adopt things that work for others, if it doesn't work for you - what now? Do your recs apply to someone who is anemic or hypertensive? One kid in my old gym was recommended by a gym rat a red bull diet. He ends up having chronically high blood pressure and ended up passing out while lifting weights. Suggest no breakfast to a the guy that is diabetic? You can do common sense things, but if your stuck, see a pro. Some gyms in NY have nutritionists on staff part-time. The reason you don't see them too often in a gym is bc of pay.

Tell this to zillions of male Asians.

Would you consider a 160lbs 5'10" woman underweight?

On a population basis, men and women share the very same BMI. They are not different male or female.

My target as a 5'10" is to be between 132-140lbs. At 47 I have the body of a teenager. And yeah I am suscribed to a gym, not to gain weight obviously.

lol, BMI is a stupid means of gauging anything. i've never met anyone who's 5'10" 160 with any decent sort of physique, they are always skinny or skinny fat with no muscle at all.

yes, 5'10" 132 is incredibly skinny for a man.

The real thing is % of fat. But BMI is good as a reference, population-wise. It is only stupid if you don't understand what it is and its limitations.

Read about nutrition yourself, no need to see a nutritionist.

Combination of correct fitness and correct nutrition is important. Somet imes, professional help is needed to search for right balance.

Are you serious? Dr. Oz? He's the biggest fraud on TV...

And LOL at BMI being a good reference. BMI is useless in this argument. We aren't talking populations, we're talking about ONE person wanting to lose weight.

Here's a good picture for you:

suck? try Intermitten fast (google it), refeed or change your marcos. More fats, less carbs or more carbs, less fat. Protien should remain the same 1gram protein/1lb of LBM

Diet- not the best, i watch what i eat, try to stay away from bread, junk food, i am a very picky eater and usually only eat chicken lol, i was 197 and went down to 190 and stayed their for about a month now, my goal is 180 so 10 more lbs, i do not count calories

Work schedule is 8-4, i wake up and dont eat, i never really eat breakfast nor have the time in the morning

Any help will be great

Eating straight Paleo for a couple of months really worked for me as did counting the calories.

I found that if I really wanted to see results, it was important to know where I was at. That for me, meant tracking food and the impact of my workouts as well.

Do something simple like track things in myfitness pal for a couple of months. If you keep it up, it will keep you honest. Just set your goal and log your food and calories burned from your workouts.

Eating a high calorie meal before going to bed will get you there .
