I'm good once I'm up, haha. But I feel like I might not be getting enough sleep for fat loss.

The 6 to 8 hours of sleep thing doesn't matter for everyone. Some can do with 3 hrs sleep. I personally get 6 hours. Your natural rhythm is yours and probably wont work for someone else. As long as your sleeping no worries.

It'll go. You should do a little bulking too. Building up the muscle will help fill your skin out better when you get rid of the fat
 
I'm a little late, but my sleep schedule is 2130-0330 M-F, 2300-0500 S-S, and it doesn't bother me *that much*. I'm making gains and cutting fat at 23-3000 cals.

Never too late bud! That's good man, I'm going on around 4 weeks and I've only dropped about 5-6 pounds. Give or take a couple, the scale is acting silly. Some strength gains though, so I can't be too mad. I've just always had a big stomach and I'm getting sick of it.

Just cut until you don't feel like it anymore then switch to a 300-500 cal surplus per day for a few weeks. Lift heavy and hard. Then you can go back to your cut.

Just a suggestion to try. Doing it that way might not work the best for everyone

Haha, I'm always sick of it. How should I redistribute my macros?

Depends what u respond best to but typically a boost in complex carbs and protein is best with some extra fat and protein before bed (I like a casein shake with a whole raw egg personally)

I look the same, haha. That last picture i posted looks the same as the one from the week before I believe. I feel like I could be spinning my wheels? I do feel like my muscles look "fuller" than usual though.

Big changes take time. Stay the course man you're doing fine. How much cardio are u doing?
 
I hate the scale lol. Do you use a tape measure? I thought I looked the same a while back, weight was the same. However, I had lost 2 inches on stomach
 
It took me two years to go from this

Damn bro. Good work! I don't do much cardio, but I'm doing cardio basically all day at work, haha. I know my stomach has gone down some but it just gets old to look at. Thanks for the words brother.
 
Dropping my carbs on non workout days. At 102 for the day, and will bump the fats up to around 90 grams or so.
 
soul0wner said:
Thanks bro. 183 says the scale. Chest today! Te question is, how much saturated fat is too much?
Click to expand...

You're good with up to 25% of daily fat intake at your current macros so 20-30g is fine. Try not to eat hydrogenated oils tho just natural sat fat like nuts, butter, coconut oil etc

Okay, well I had a decent amount of cheese yesterday so the sat fats were higher.
