    In context of keeping a caloric deficit + no strength training routine, yes.
    After you are depleted of all glycogen stores, your body relies on fat + muscle for energy. Do too much of it, and you become skinny fat! (if the person in your picture is you you then you know this already)
    lol, that's not me. that's what i'm working towards :-)

    I agree with others on the lift now and take supplements. Both do make a difference. I do some cardio but lift too. I also started supplementing a few weeks ago and am loving the way I feel and look!
