So I just started cutting again in preparation for summer. I’m not trying to lose too much, and my calories really around that low for my height and activity level (1400-1500). And oh my God, I forgot how hard it is to go from eating maintenance to being in a caloric deficit!
Your whole body is like “what the FUCK are you doing right now???” Your hunter hormones are whacky. Your sleep schedule gets disrupted. It’s absolutely miserable.
But it’s just an adjustment period. After about a week things calm down. Your body gets used to it. You stop feeling like you’re gonna die. You’re no longer hungry all the time.
So for anyone who just started and is feeling terrible, know that it’s going to get easier! Seriously! You’ll adjust. You just gotta make it through the first week.
(If it’s been longer than a week/week and a half and you’re still feeling awful, though, that means something’s off. You probably aren’t eating enough.)
