Hi there! I'm new here, first of all, apologies for any english mistakes :)
So it's hard to know where to begin explaining but I'll try to do my best.
Height: 192 cm
Actual Weight: 96,5 kg (111,5 before summer)
Age: 19
/////////Introduction (skip if you want)//////////
I've been fat all my life, my parents once took me to the "doctor" (I don't how is it said, but the one about nutrition and all this stuff) and that didn't work (during that period of time I was 104 kg lbs top). When I was 18 I stopped going there so I was on my own, and I got more and more fat, until 250 lbs. Then I deciced I was going to get healthy and lose everything. I've been dieting all summer, and I've managed to lose around 15 kg, but I feel like there's still a lot of things I'm doing wrong, so I came here looking for advice.
/////////////////////////////////////////////////
tl;dr of intro: I've been fat all my life and lately I've been eating healthier and exercicing, in 4 months I've lost around 15 kg, but I'm struggling to lose fat.
Based on what I've read around these forums and what some friends have told me, I'm basically doing a high-protein diet, something like the Paleo diet, so you get the idea, but not exactly the same. Exercice: Cardio (I usually read bad things about it but it is something I really enjoy) and started doing bodyweight exercices.
I did that for around a month, I had no problems doing exercice/sticking to the diet so there's no problem with that. But it got to a point where I thought it was better if I stopped doing the bodyweight exercices. I basically thought it would be better to lose all the fat I wanted to lose until I looked "good", and then start building muscle. But it's been another month and I still look nearly the same. I've noticed some differences but not a big deal. I was afraid that I'd end up building muscle but still keep a lot of fat, and then when triying to lose it I'd lose muscle as well.
tl:dr of the whole post:
I'm here more or less -> fat and with almost no muscle: (Image 1)
And I hope one day I'll be here (not more "muscular") -> not fat and with some muscle: (Image 2)
What should I do? Keep losing weight and (hopefully) fat? Or start working with the muscles already? And what about the diet? High protein?
