Glycogen stores + water weight after cut

[Pasha33]

Im on a cut currently and I feel and look really deflated and skinny. Someone who experienced being on a cut, how was it when you started eating properly again? Did you look much fuller and less skinny?
If you have any pictures of when you get that water back and you look a bit fuller, please share

Well I didn’t see any significant changes. In fact I thought i looked better at times. First weeks I absolutely loaded up on carbs e.g. like 500g of potatoes a meal and so on… after that I rolled it down a bit to like idk 150-200g of rice each meal (Had 2) and loaded up on water like 3/4L. I kept this up until now. I‘ve only eaten at maintenance which I recommend since maintenance is enough to gain muscle and general growth

im experiencing the same things its brutal
I js try to remember in my mind that it will come back once I eat normal again
I take creatine and that's helped a little bit but kinda bloated me a lil too

and the thing is even after I’ve cut I’m still not happy with the way I look so it feels like a big waste of time
