I really don't want to lose too much size considering I wasn't big to begin with but I suppose it's part of cutting.

IMO you looked good when you started. There is always time to put on size just get to your goal of 'Hot Bod' for your vacation. :7_1_106v[

Re: 8 weeks until vacation log
How's your energy on the tren? And do you plan to take after pics? I'm anxious to see your progress.

Re: 8 weeks until vacation log
I'm short on breath. Cardio has taken a hit for sure. Even bedroom cardio.
I will take another round of pics soon and again right before vacation.
I get a new assessment tomorrow. Body fat %, and measurements on body parts. I'm down to 156lbs from 165lbs in 25 days.

Finished the day with 30 minutes of moderate cardio. 2.5 miles in 30 minutes. Seems like I'm getting slower.
