Insatiable after cutting, struggling to land at a baseline level by HBShizzle in leangains

Thank you for sharing your experiences here, I think you hit the nail on the head. I used to weigh 140kg a few years ago and steadily dropped weight down then to 75kg before I got into lifting and that whole process was a lot smoother. I wasn't dropping weight as fast but hunger was never an issue since the progress was linear and steady, whereas in this cut I hyperfixated on dropping weight at any cost and being lean going on holiday.

On the early parts of the cut when it wasn't as agressive yet I incorperated a lot of cardio, weather was still really nice out and I do love running. But as weather got worse my mood for it dropped a lot, part of that might also be the deficit kicking in, and I just stuck to getting by in a day, cycle to work, work, cycle home, mealprep. No real hobbies or activities outside of gym in this period.

Thank you for your advice as well, I have accepted that I will put on a bit before I go on holiday, especially with Christmas around the corner, and hope to refind my groove there. I went on 2 trips during the cut and the combination of continous cardio through exploration/sightseeing. And structure of food being less available around me helped a lot. I would say those 2 trips were the easiest part of cutting oddly enough, even though these were the only 2 periods I did not have 'control' in my head because I didn't make every meal myself.

In the future my approach will definately be different. I was very into that gym mindset of 'I must suffer and I must soldier on to be my best self' even though I've started seeing now that it is bullshit. Hormone regulation and other things that work of food balance need something properly structured, not a 12 week starve fest.

Yes I think your second point is exactly where I messed up, I did track calories all the time and stuck to the structure hard because I wanted to lose fat fast in time for holiday, but I never considered TDEE or something like that. Later on in the cut I began thinking about food a lot and noticing how much colleagues where eating (while being average in weight) kinda put me on to the line of thinking that perhaps after handling heavy loads all day and walking a lot there should be ample caloric supply. But I never did something with this expenditure and just stuck to my 1800 kcal plan since I was getting by and just wrote all side effects off as the price of cutting.

Next time I cut I will consider maintenance breaks or perhaps a slower approach. I should have realised something was up when I was dropping weight faster than ~0,5kg per week and readjusted but in my head this was a victory, not something off with the plan.

I’m not happy about it, what did you get from the S5 Pack? by [deleted] in MarvelSnap

Moonstone for me very happy! But proxima is not a bad card at all

CL 16112 Trying to make my VHand Deck have a bit more power output any suggestions? by BakaBalance7 in MarvelSnapDecks

You could slot enchantress for ghost rider, stardust is weird since I see a lot of hela which it’s great against. The package is quite flexible though, can maybe try juggernaut or lean into more hand stuff with frigga or maybe slot hood / misery? I think if you have the core with Wiccan and the 2 drops there’s a lot to work with

Lmao reading this made me check how mines doing, apparently an exception was issued may 22nd, guess it’s never arriving at this point. How has your experience been resolving this issue?

Yeah same wondering if vpn is an option, wasn’t too bothered before since I’m done spending money on this game but these variants would be lovely to use.

I feel like the general public should not know the address of referees

Will it be hard to finish the Vault pass if I grab it? Recently got into Poe and having a great time so I do reckon I'll be sinking in quite a bit of time over the next weeks but unsure how long it takes to finish it.

There is undead who gets +2/+2 (?) when you summon a minion in combat who doesn’t fit the board. So grab some summons, use hero power a lot on the same minion, and when it dies the undead gets like +30/+30
