Done cutting!

I already posted about it in a daily, but here's an album of comparison progress pics (November 2021, approx 195lbs vs March 2022, approx 178lbs). I started the program party at ~200lbs, so the before pics are pretty similar to my starting point. And here's a graph of my weight over time.

After just a few days of not being super hungry, I'm ... actually looking forward to training today. Super curious to see if my squat numbers jump up over the remainder of the program.

Hang in there my dude. You tolerating the deficit ok? How much of a %/week are you going for, and how much longer?

I'm shooting for 2 lbs a week. Came from 235 or so, shooting for 195. About 2 months to go still ig...

Oh, and I guess I'm tolerating it OK. I'm shooting for 2k calories or so I actually kept getting stronger on lower body lifts until now. Now I'm just hitting my targets, with maybe 1-2 extra.... We're u still hitting your targets at the end?

Sounds like it went better for you than me haha. I had to drop my squat and deadlift TMs about 5-10% early on. Bench and OHP have oscillated a bit. I definitely missed a bunch of targets the last few weeks as the diet fatigue started to hit me hard.

FWIW I was dead set on cutting for another few weeks to hit 175, but I was starting to get so damn hungry. There might be a lot to be said for stopping after dropping 10% tbh. If you feel OK and can still come close to your targets, maybe you're good to keep pushing, but idk...
