I'm 18 years old, 6'2 and about 190lbs. I've been workin out for about a year and a half. I started at about 180lbs and 10.6% body fat at about the same height, got to about 185 with 3.5% body fat, and am now at 190 with probably somewhere between 3.5-7% body fat.

I've had great strength gains in some places, and decent ones in all the rest (40lb dumbell presses, 100lb barbell curls, 245 squat, 360+ incline leg press, 135 bench - yea the bench has to get better)

However, I still look like I have "baby fat" on me. I heard that it may take up to 5 years at the gym at such a young age to get that cut look outside of when you're actually working out.

My back is nicely defined, as are my arms and my pecs are getting there. The baby fat I was talking about is in my abdominal section. I think I need to eat less in order for this to get more defined, but I have a rediculous apetite. I'm talking hungry an hour and a half after a huge meal. I basically am eating many times I'm not at class, asleep, at the gym, or playing basketball.

I guess my question is, should I continue to feed the hunger my body has or should I have restraint? I'm sure the common answer is to find a happy medium, but I'd just like to hear some other opinions.

(Currently I think I should continue to eat when I am hungry because I am so young)
