If you've been on a deficit for a while then maybe your stomach is just not quite as used to gorging on a bunch of food like it used to be. But I don't think the fact that you can't finish 2 double cheeseburgers in one sitting is a bad thing if you're trying to lose weight. I wouldn't worry about it and just eat when you're hungry and make sure you don't neglect your fruits and veggies. And if you haven't already I would suggest going low on the carbs too.
Also what is your workout plan like? Are you pushing yourself in the gym? That will help boost your metabolism and help with appetite. I know after a big squat/deadlift day I'm usually pretty hungry by the time I get back home.Last edited by StankyDrawz; 01-19-2013 at 02:11 AM.

Thanks alot for the feedback man!! Yea it aint bad. Im really loving the new me. Even though i just started my diet i already feel the effects. (My energy skyrockets all day, I dont piss 24/7 Anymore, and yea i guess eating less in a sitting is a good thing!
and yea i tend to cut down my carbs and bad fats. I focus just on a good calorie Def with ALOT of protein. When im hungry i usually go for about 3 Clementines with a large glass of water. Although it doesnt take the hunger away it eases my mind and lets me focus on other things.

I'm incredibly tempted to neg you on recharge.
Since when do Squats boost your metabolism?
OP, don't listen to this or the rubbish about the carbs. Doing cardio every session isn't necessary, and it'll take its toll eventually. Cardio is optional. Your weight loss will be decided by the amount of calories you eat at the end of the day. It's a good for overall health, but that much is overkill. What you're doing is fine.Currently cutting.

Enjoy my negs, I'm sure others will follow too.
If you can point out where I said he should donuts and cheesy poofs, whilst skipping on the protein, I'll refrain from negging you.
If it fits your macros and caloric needs, eat it. A calorie from McDonalds and a calorie from salad are the same. Does that equate to 'Eat only McDonalds'? No.
OP, don't listen to this guy. Squats boosting metabolism? Low carb diet the way to go? Cardio after every session? Did you qualify top of your bro-class, bro?
OP, get your protein, get your fat, get as much carbs as your calories will allow you to. Why? Carbs are tasty. Life was made to enjoy carbs. Want some chocolate after your steak? Eat it, if it fits your macros, why not? Don't make it harder on yourself.Currently cutting.

I have everything to contribute, and I have offered better advice than you. I'm bashing on you so you don't send some poor guy in to a carb depleted depression as he busts his a** on a treadmill every day. I see broscience being thrown about, I make it my personal mission to stamp it out.

I'm not throwing around low carb nonsense idiot. Would it have been better if I said go lower on the carbs? Probably not because everyone here seems to think that eating 3000 calories of twinkies is the same as eating 3000 calories of nutritious food. The only reason I said go lower on the carbs is because I assumed that the OP probably got a fair ammount of excess calories from empty carbs in the past. But I'm through trying to be helpful in this thread and have everyone take everything I say out of context. **** this.

Its basicly similar to starting strength just with added volume for those that want to do more exercises in the routine. 3x a week , mon-wed-fri etc.
OP: If you are doing them 4-5 times a week that might be a bit overkill to start out with, unless your recovery is fine and able to keep increasing on lifts. If not then doing 3x a week and cardio etc. on rest days might be better.
Just my recommendation from personal experience, no wizard on workouts so if anyone wants to correct that feel free.

If you are doing squats 2 or more times a week and starting strenght workout i would not do cardio.
Starting strenght is awesome but if you like lifting more than running then you need to prioritize getting stronger over doing cardio, if you have enough strenght after lifting to do cardio, then you are not focusing on your training enough.
If you are doing squats properly and aim to lift more and more, you simply cant do cardio. After my squats i feel just like after cardio, maybe really light jogging would not be a bad idea for you (if needed correct me on this one guys, i only tested HIIT on rest days and it gave terrible results) if you really like cardio and want to spend your time doing it instead of watching TV.
I was doing HIIT on rest days and found that not only i cant recover for my next workout but also my knee started to hurt. If you like doing cardio then dont push yourself so hard on strenght training and concentrate more on cardio and outdoor exercises, but if you like lifting hard and seeing that you can lift bigger and bigger weights on every week/month (i know i do), then drop cardio completely.
It is really debatable how much good comes from doing cardio with intense strenght training, there are just too many factors to measure it, from my experience, doing additional cardio when you are pushing yourself hard on training days is a bad idea.
