    I don't really have before pictures of my heaviest, because I didn't intend to stay at that weight... But here are the results of starting a cut (TDEE-20%) after two weeks: (And for some reason AFTER is on the left and BEFORE is on the right. It made sense at the time... :P)

    Over 3 months of eating at TDEE and lifting and then 2 weeks of cutting at TDEE -20%, I dropped from 27.7 to 22.3% body fat... And only lost two total pounds...

    Most of the muscle mass I put on seems to have been in the replacement of my bingo-wings with actual triceps and delts.
