I'm definitely not rushing the losses this time around.

My last cycle of fat loss, I slashed the calories from a daily average of 3500 to 2600 which resulted in fast loss, but also dropped muscle 😭

This time, I'm watching my conservative daily output and keeping it only 100-400 less than that (looking like ~3000 calories/day so far).

I'm much more energetic and less hungry which is making this a lot more enjoyable - which is great because it needs to be sustainable to carry me through the end of Spring 🤞

This way, if the weight increases, it's surely muscle gains! 💪🏻
