My diet progress, with pic

[timhsvwalkinsha]

I've been dieting (cutting) for 14 weeks now, which consisted of a 10 week initial stretch, 3 week maintenance break and so far I've done 4 weeks in this second cycle of dieting.

My maintenance was approximately 3300 kcal/day so in my first cycle I cut calories to approximately 2700-2800 kcal/day and didn't change anything with regards to training.

In general my maintenance tends to be ~ 14 cal/lb bodyweight and I'll cut at 12 cal/lb bodyweight.

The second dieting cycle I have been hitting ~2500 kcal/day (~12kcal/lb)

I am down 10kg (22lbs) & 10cm (4 inches) on waist

To be honest at first I was deceived by the different lighting in your pics. You can definitely tell you have lost some size on your sides, looks good, but I bet you can see a much better difference with the same lighting from the first. That is really good weight loss if you lost most of it in the 10 weeks, congrats! Have you gone to a nutritionist or anything to determine your bf%?

Nah, I have no idea what my bodyfat level is. You're right about the lighting; must get a better picture. Hopefully I'll be able to come back with a more dramatic transformation in a few months
