I'll check in myself.
Weighed 74kg yesterday, though 1-2kg is carb and water bloat for sure.
Got down to 67kg (true weight 69kg ish)with a mild water and weight cut for a single day at the beginning of December for a martial arts fight that the opponent pulled out of, and since then have eaten like I've discovered Christmas for the first time.
Calming down the eating and drinking over the next few days as I'm honestly feeling a bit fed up of cooking and eating.
Diet starts on Monday, I'd like to get to a stable 66kg.
68kg by end of Feb (approx 3 kg a month)
64kg by end of May
Aiming to have a small deficit of about 400-500 calories on my maintenance. However, based on my height and weight and BMR calc, thats about 1300 calories a day. I do a lot of martial arts training, which burns about 3500 calories a week, so although I will fuel a little more on training days, I want to keep the overall calorie deficit high to cut a significant amount in the first 2 months.
Typical daily food: (focus on high protein intake, for decent recovery from training, and minimise muscle loss)
Breakfast: 3 egg omelette / scrambled
Lunch: Huel black (if rushed for time or on the move) / Chicken, rice, veg
Snack: Skyr snack (Lindahl pro probably) / fruit with fibre
Snack: Protein shake
Dinner: Protein with veg, homemade coleslaw, cabbage, broccoli, etc
