Hello I've been cutting for almost 5 months now and would like to share some new pictures. I have been intermittent fasting since the start and plan to continue intermittent fasting until I am in single digits.
I understand some of you will respond to this thread with "do u even lift bro" "should of gained more muscle" "time to bulk" "why have u not gained massive amounts of muscle u were obese" etc etc, but I've only been lifting once per week since I've started cutting as I've been aiming mainly for fat loss.
I've recently increased the intensity and I am now working out 3 times per week -

When I was around 200 lb my calorie intake was roughly 2,200 per day but now it's 1,800 on non workout days and 2,000 on workout daysOriginally Posted by Riflemancho

I'd like to weigh under 10 pounds too it'd be great!
On a serious note, you've made amazing progress for 5 months. If you can keep up the fasting + lifting, you'll be ripped in no time. I understand that you don't lift now, I wouldn't want to either if I couldn't see the muscle, but you are at the point where lifting would be good for you so you dont have to start from the ground up when you're done losing weight. Then again, you may just want a slim body, if so just keep up the good work bro!

My energy levels are great, after a 16 hour fast I can easily perform a workout without feeling drained or demotivated. When I first started cutting I thought that I had to follow a 6 meal per day plan and not eat anything before 8pm lol, I educated myself by reading a lot on this forum and decided to try intermittent fasting. I honestly believe that my energy levels are better than what they were when following a standard diet and it's so easy I could follow it for life!Originally Posted by gdope

If your body isn't used to the bad food it will reject it and you will be ****ting all day. After 3 days it will become used to it, I'm guessing a 3lb gain.Originally Posted by Henchasfk
Very nice work losing that gut though, shave the chest and work on the tan lol

Cheat for the three days, then do a 24 hour fast. It's usually what I do.
IF is the shizzz... only thing I've noticed is I'm not as motivated to do Cardio..but who needs cardio when the fat just melts off with IF right?
Keep up the good work!

Thats a lot of cheating and don't be surprised if the scale is up 10lbs, srs......it'll mainly be water weight from all the carbs, but most of it will drop off in a few days. Id reconsider and only do 1 day if you have tooOriginally Posted by Henchasfk
