OK, I'm done cutting. I feel obligated to stick to my plan and tough it out to the end of the weekend, but...I was feeling ready to pass out yesterday by the end of the day, even on over 2200 calories.
But my wife agrees, I've reached my goal - there is just hardly any body fat left. I am probably around 10% after all, possibly even 9.
So, the long, difficult Stage 1 is done. I've shed as much body fat as I can at this point, and it's time to regrow, but this time with muscle instead of fat.
It's like rebuilding a house. The old structure has been torn down, a new solid foundation is in place, and we're going to do it right this time. I'm on the road for work this week, so I'll be taking it easy and recovering from the small injuries I've managed to give myself learning how to lift, doing some cardio and bodyweight exercises, and eating back at a maintenance level of calories. Then another week at maintenance to let all the leptin levels and metabolism readjust a little, and then the bulking.
6 weeks of "practice" lifting has already changed me a lot. I want to be downright unrecognizable one year from now.
The dieting is done, the body fat is all gone. Time to get strong :)
