Has anyone else ever massively overdone a cut lol?

I was laughing about my first ever cut I did back in 2016

First time I ever started lifting, was 6'0" 214lbs skinny fat, I was a bit more on the fat side but I looked like a rotten pear, no arms, shoulders or chest but a jiggly pot belly and fat butt.

Anyway I jumped on intermittent fasting and a bro split and I remember the first couple of weeks I was losing like 0.5-1lbs a day, then it started to slow down. At the same time I got impressive noob gains at the gym and I remember my upper body filled out fairly quick.

Anyway intermittent fasting made me lose my appetite and I kept pushing it out further and further, eating like 800 calories some days lol, I'd go to the gym 7 days a week stimmed out of my mind on monster zero, preworkout and creatine.

After about 4 months I was down to like 170lbs and I actually had abs showing and honestly Ngl I looked pretty damn good for only 4 months of work.

But I got obsessed with getting my abs to like really show fully and kept cutting until July when I weighed 152lbs at 6'0" ayyy lmao.

I thought I looked awesome but I literally only looked like I lifted when I had a pump, I looked like a damn zombie most of the time. I did not have the lean mass to go any lower body fat.

Long story short ended up getting the flu, body was too phucking drained to fight it off, was sick for like a month and had post viral fatigue for 9 months after and could not lift.

All in all that was dumb.

Currently on a crash cut, fasted up to 3 days straight, then 1000 or less calories a day

Lost 8 lbs in four days lmao

Full steam ahead. It’s perfectly fine if you know what you’re doing

really OP, you were skinny fat and decided to lose 70 pounds, what did you think would happen


and 6ft 215lbs with twig arms, that isnt just skinny fat that is plain fat, you just store your fat like a woman on the hips, probably a hormonal thing
