I'm in my second cycle of Lyle McDonald's UD2 and implementing 50mcg of T3 this time.
I started at 25mcg for a few days and now I'm at 50mcg. I don't plan on exceeding this dose and this T3 cycle will last 4 weeks.
After these 4 weeks I will go back to maintenance, however I know that my thyroid will be suppressed. If maintenance calories are usually set by multiplying bw x14-16 (I usually hover around 14 mark), can I assume that I should be eating at bw x14 with a 10% deficit or should I just do bw x13?
And yes, my diet is on point. I track everything through myfitnesspal. Carb sources are always low gi (beans, oats, brown rice) and protein is always lean.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
