So I was cutting pretty nicely. 200g of protein. Little to no carbs. And low calories. Basically I lived off of canned tuna, eggs and protein shakes. My body showed difference after 1.5 week. My face also slightly. Today I felt like utter shit. Not really hungry. But I just didn't wanna prohibit myself to eat a Lil more. So I ate a Lil more. Felt Hella good ngl. I feel 10x better. After so much cutting, giving urself some room for less deficit. Feels 10x better than eating everyday maintenance. It makes life better. And the cut more enjoyable. I am defo jot done cutting. I'll cut more but a lil slower than past week. Where I had a pretty bgi deficit. Although I didn't lose muscle and only fat. It just felt shitty. I had loads of supps btw. So no health issues. But still it felt shitty. 500 cal deficit is where I'll cap my cut at. After 1 month I'll slow it down more to 500 cals. My cut for now is 700 to 800 cal deficit. It was 1k plus beforehand. Didn't lose muscle cuz U ate only protein jfl.

Yeah cutting should be very aggressive in the beginning and then U shld slowly slow down. I'd say that's the best approach to minimize muscle loss.

I mean it worked for me ngl. My biggest motivation to lean down more was how my body shape became better and better and my face looking more human

yeah, it was lowkey easy for me to get ~150 grams of protein on like 1400 cals but the cravings were a bitch to handle lol
 
I thought you meant cutting your wrist 😂
