I want an opinion

in Health and Weight Loss
I hit my initial 2014 cut goal weight of 175 today. I'm pleased with the results so far, but am not quite where I want to be BF% so I'm going to continue at 2100 calories (with a TDEE w/out extra exercise of ~2700) for a while longer with a new goal of 170. Will plan to bump up my calories by a few hundred and transition into maintenance over the next 3-4 weeks. I hope I can get there without getting much smaller overall...and then back to maintenance+ for the summer.

That is all.


(Hmmm. Guess I really didn't want any opinions after all. *shrug* :ohwell: )




edit: because I didn't know this was English class...and people are mean.

    So I can have an opinion, even if you don't want it.

    To the first part...duh...of course I do...I'm on MFP, aren't I???


    ...and to the second part...duh...of course not...I'm on MFP, aren't I???


    We're all here for the same reason.


    I just need to figure out what uniquely works for my body.


    Also, I thought MFP was for support.


    Something something something Thumper, what did your father tell you this morning? something something.

    We are about in the same place, I cut to 170 and am very happy with the results but would like the BF to be a tad lower as well. I have just switched to a slight maintenance. Hopefully I will see some results, still going to try to build muscle and lower body fat, difference is I am eating another 800 calories a day than I was used to eating. Lets see what happens.

    (Rare serious moment:

    I bulked for three (or four?) months at ~3000-3700 calories...went from 168ish to 188 (on 2/1/2014). Transitioned to a deficit, at at 1971 calories for a few weeks, losing too quickly and struggled to hit macros, so bumped to 2100 and am doing much better there. Losing about 1.5 pounds/week on average but am closer to 1 pound/week most recently. Need to take some measurements (tape/caliper) and reevaluate the next phase of the plan. Am really looking forward to resuming eating like a grown man again. (disclaimer: All numbers and dates from memory as my notes aren't in front of me right now.))

    Okay, now back to the main point of this thread, which is:

    That's preferable to the actual reference.
