Before and almost after

I started my diet around in late July at around 228lb.  I am 154.2LB as of April 22.  My height is 5'7 and my diet consisted of eating an average of 1800 quality calories a day and a lifting routine 3 days a week.  I also play racquetball and run on my off days. 

I am at 16% body fat at the moment and my goal is to lose 3-5 more pounds before i start bulking up.  I gained a lot of weight after my freshman year in highschool.. and im trying to get back to my old shape.   I attribute most of my success to CC and its great community.
