I have never been a morning lifter, let alone fasted. I honestly don't know where it came from, but I love it. Has me on a closer schedule with my wife, too, which is a plus. Gets me home for dinner on the nights I don't have obligations and usually she'll cook for me if that's the case

I'm down 20+ lbs. from the start of September. Haven't done any bf% measurements, but definitely leaning up nicely. I've been doing weekly progress photos (from the front and side; standing in the same position/location in the bathroom at home each time for accuracy). I can see huge differences from the start to now and even subtle differences week to week (more pronounced now even with less fat lost as the cuts are coming in more).

I'm sure I've lost some muscle; no doubt about it. But the way I look at it is if my lifts haven't gone down at all and may have even gone up in some areas, I'm not too worried about it. This is where I normally would have an emotional/mental yo-yo and freak out and want to get my size back, but I'm pushing forward and "trusting the process" to steal a term used in sports all the time. I know I want to be at a lower bf% and I'll appear bigger even if I'm really not. Also gives me more flexibility in clothing options LOL.
