I am week 3 of cut and I am still just maintaining......I cut 267 cals (I have gone up to TDEE on occasion though) and I am still maintaining this awful 25lbs gained over the reset......I HATE IT! I am not at all comfortable in this body from a physical standpoint...not just visible. I am having very tough time with fatigue to a point I think I might go see a physician asap. Something does not feel right....I am exhausted to the point of crawling into bed again and again......Feeling the Debbie Downers......still sticking it out...but not happy :(

    :( Have you had your thyroid checked? Sugar levels and all that other stuff?

    I was up 6-8 lbs from my "reset" I started my cut last week. I was at 2K and dropped down to 1798...will I ever get to the 30 lb mark? It has been a long road and I am totally feeling your pain!!

    See if your Dr will check for vitamin/mineral deficiencies too! Adrenal fatigue--which many dr's don't even recognize as a "real" problem can be treated with big time nutrient pushes in what you are eating and supplementing.

    You can research on the web ways to treat adrenal fatigue.....I started taking a supergreen called green vibrance for this very reason. I also supplement Vit D 3 when I start to feel tired/down and it's been a few weeks since I have had my face in the sunshine. For me--it made a huge difference ( and still does!)!

    How are your workouts feeling???? Don't dispair!
