10 week deficit wrapped up.
Stuck with it, started doing weekly refeeds every Sunday from week 7 to keep things moving and not burn out. Down 5kg total, 6cm off the waist, 5cm off the thighs and somehow kept all my strength and muscle through it.
Now moving into a slow lean bulk. No stuffing my face, just small surplus + actually pushing harder on the workouts. Chasing big muscles though hahah.
Next update in 10 weeks.
8 weeks ago I decided to do things differently.
In the past, I’ve done the crazy diets. The ones where the weight falls off quickly, but so does your muscle. I’d end up smaller on the scale, but I’d look soft, feel weak, and honestly never be happy with the end result.
This time, my focus was different. Instead of just losing weight, I wanted to lose body fat while keeping as much muscle as possible. So I stayed in a calorie deficit, kept my protein high, moved my body consistently, and trusted the process.
So far I’ve gone from:
61.8kg -> 57.9kg (-3.9kg)
Waist: 71cm -> 66cm (-5cm)
Thigh: 58.5cm -> 55cm (-3.5cm)
The scale is great, but what I’m happiest about is that I don’t just look smaller I look more toned, stronger, and healthier than I did before.
There were days I wanted to give up, days I didn’t feel motivated, and days where progress felt slow. But I kept going, and that’s what made the difference.
I’m really proud of how far I’ve come already, especially when I compare these photos. And the best part? I’m not finished yet… I’ve still got 2 weeks left.
Here’s to finishing strong and seeing what another 14 days of consistency can do.
