The real answer is varies person to person. But it seems like the amount of pounds to lose an inch off the waist is lower the lower your bodyfat % for the most part.

Personally, when I was fat...

I'm 2 weeks into my second cut and it's not bad either even with a 750-1000 calorie deficit. It started out like that the first time I cut, but slowly got worse with time. I don't know how much of...

I'm sure technically some calories are burnt off when you cook anything, but it's a slippery slope of miscounting your calories. Include the calories in all your ingredients and credit yourself at...

Did you start lifting again recently? I think it's pretty common for noobs to get really hungry/low blood sugar when they start lifting. At least for me anyways, I was starving the first 3 months...

If you're 33% bf than you should be able to lose a pound a week at least on diet alone. Psychologically, it might be easier to hold off on cardio until you get leaner and your metabolism slows down....

Yeah, after a couple dozen failed attempts to explain calories in/out, this is now my default answer. The weird thing is how people won't even let me go a sentence answering before throwing in...

Both. You goofed by not lifting during your diet. Even when you get to 150 I don't think you're going to be thrilled with how you look without a shirt on. Congrats on the weight loss though. ...

Damn man, good job. It is hard to give a good guess on your bf% because of the extra skin, but I would say you are under 15%.

15-20 depending if you're flexing or not. Higher end if you are, lower if you're not.

14-15% is a good estimate. Your goal is doable and I don't think your deficit is that crazy at your size. It is a world of difference being on a big deficit when you're fat and when you're lean...

I think they're considered breakfast foods because of how quickly they can be made in the morning as opposed to the 30+ minutes it takes to prepare/cook your dinners. I think the carb heavy...

I read a bunch of these stories when I first started cutting from 230, so I thought I'd lowered my expectations to a realistic endpoint of a jacked 170, lol. I'm currently at 160 and thinking it...

Could use a little more info like what are your goals?

Assuming you're a skinny guy looking to add some muscle than I would at the very least be lifting weights while you try to find your...

I'm not claiming to be an expert on this but there are plenty of guys like Lyle McDonald that think your rate of muscle gain is higher in the 10-15% range.

The general rule of thumb is six pack at 8%. If you were a big jacked guy or lucky genetics you'll see it at higher bodyfat. If you're not even lifting or really unlucky on genetics who the hell...

Man, you're not going to like any of the answers that are forthcoming.

1) You're higher than 15% bodyfat, maybe 20%. Those bf scales are useless other than giving you a trendline.
2) Are you...

You didn't gain 4 pounds in 4 days unless you were eating a carton of ice cream for every meal. And those are some tight ass clothes to begin with if 4 pounds of mostly water requires tailoring.
...

Firstly, you lost mostly water weight out of that 15 initial plans. Most of that is either going to come back when you come off your diet or just slowly come back during the diet.

You'd have to...

I was going to take this one to the grave, but since the OP brought up the topic. I thought I might be constipated for the first time in my life during my latest cut. I take little rabbit turds...

One of the key things I discovered was how to structure my diet and workouts to avoid the low blood sugar drops. Those things were deadly on my deficits when I first started and are really currently...
