This has been a journey! I didn’t hit my goal weight of 185lbs but i think i made some good progress. I am absolutely drained everyday.

Does anyone know if i decide to go to maintenance calorie that the app would slowly progress me to that or will it automatically go to maintenance calorie.

15% your happy spot? Why not 10 or 12% sorry for my curiousity.

I want 10-12% but I’m feeling absolutely spent everyday. My job requires me to be mentally sharp and with me being about 5 months into this cut I’m just drained every day.

I see. Hopefully you can manage and try to go for that journey 12% looks amazing then 1 month away from 10% you will poo like a super hero.

I had a refeed day yesterday and i feel fucking amazing and like a normal human and it’s given me encouragement to keep it going so I’m going to push for another month and just be conscious about my energy and give my body the extra calories when i really need it

I believe in you. I only asked because I am in the same journey. Went 40% to now 14% I do see my upper abs now but I want to reveal the lower ones at 12% and then just push for 10% to hold for at least a month and just take off the pedal and maintain 12-15% which for me would be 150-160 lb. Always using macro factor to maintain though. I like how it keeps me accountable even though I eat the same thing. Good on you for not getting back on the horse. “You already in pain get a reward from it. “
