Hey y'all, I'm new to the forum and I'm looking to change up my diet to slim down and cut up.  If anyone has any meal ideas or plans that would be great.
Please and Thank you

Diet = keto diet

Routine = push/pull/legs

Cardio = HIIT

Thanks for the advice.

Here's a little more info, I hope this info makes sense.
I've been doing weights for awhile now and I'm looking for some solid advice. I'm 29, 5'4" and about 160lbs. I used to dance a lot and teach  but now that I'm not dancing anymore, I've put some fat on top of my muscle, especially my legs. I have recently changed my workout, so that I am training more intensely. I start with a light weigh @15 reps and increase my weigh by about 10-20lbs each set of reps until exhaustion. I'm noticing that my arms, chest and back are responding well to the change but my legs are staying the same. My legs are getting stronger but staying the same shape. This is what I'm doing: workouts for monday, wednesday, friday....alternating CHEST: barbell flat, decline, pec flys and push ups BACK: chin ups, lat pulls downs(close grip), rows, rear delt flys SHOULDERS: dumb bell press, seated or standing shrugs, dumb bell front raises and sometimes. ARMS: bicep machine, dips, dumbell bicep curls, barbell skull crushers, LEGS: lunges, hamstring curls, leg press, calf raises tuesdays & thursdays wide lat pulls downs squats flat bench decline press leg ext single arm dumbell rows military press lat pull overs

I looked up keto diet and I'm going to try and tweek my current eating habits to the diet.

Anyone have any thought?

Sounds good. How is your cardio? That should help a little with the fat burning.

I try to get cardio in but I train intensely and I'm only in the gym for maybe about 1 hour and then out. I just bought a new bike and I'm hoping (weather permitting) I can bike to work so that would be and hour of cardio each day.

I hate running and I'm since I used to dance, cardio sucks! Ya know!!
