I have been cutting for 5 weeks and have lost 8lbs, Thats including a couple of cheat days i had that set me back a fair few days each time, i was running a sizeable deficit, I lost on average 2 reps on all my lifts and this happend withing the first week, after week one i haven't noticed any further strength loss what so ever, i just can't seem to do as much volume and sets which is understandable.
I am really happy with my results i can see a huge difference but i feel like i have suddenly come to a point where the diet feels really hard, energy and motivation has dropped, libido seems to be down also. I tried making my deficit smaller for the past few days but its not really helped and today i had another cheat day unplanned and out of the blue, only a 600kcal surplus, but i am frustrated with my self because at the start i could stick to this easy, motivation was high and i felt really good even after a few weeks of dieting then it was like i hit a brick wall and every day was super hard.
I can see the final goal in sight now its like its within touching distance Part of me feels like my body is telling me to take a diet break, regain the little bit of strength and reps i lost and also my libido then go again for the final phase, another part of me is saying thats just me making excuses and quitting.
