Fat loss advice

[Captainpotatohead]

Hi all,

Looking for advice from anyone who’s lost a lot of body fat.

I’ve been lifting for ~10 years but was obese as a child/teen. Now in my mid-30s, I’ve never managed to get truly lean. I’ve been stuck in a cycle of cutting, bulking, cutting, bulking but neither really successfully achieving either.

For the past 18 months, I’ve focused solely on getting as lean as possible before considering a bulk. However, as I get leaner, I’m noticing a soft, flabby texture in areas like my lower glutes and upper thighs. It’s not hanging/thin skin, but it feels stretchy and saggy/soft.

For those who’ve been through something similar, does this eventually tighten up? Is it just a matter of just keep going, losing all the stubborn fat and seeing what im left with?

FYI I am enhanced, currently running test/mast/var/HGH and will be adding clen/t3 in shortly. Weight lifting 5 days, averaging 20k steps per day and 3 LISS gym cardio sessions per week.

Currently sitting at 92kg, height is 5’11. I’m down to 1700 cals per day with 1 refeeed every 10 days where I’ll push carbs up to 500ish gram and limit fats to 50g.

Appreciate any advice!

I was at 325 2.5 years ago and am at 220 now from Ozempic use and 5-6 days a week at the gym. I am an old dude now but my body is looking like a young man as I lift and do 2 miles a day on the treadmill after every workout. I am only on test because I had AFIB issues and am addressing that currently. No booze in 2 years and I drank enough to fill a small lake and did my share of drugs also but my body looks solid so it can be done. Hope that helps a little

I lost a ton of fat. Yes certain areas start to feel mushy as the fat amount changes. Some areas are going to firm up, it really depends on how fat you were. I was obese so I'm left with some forever saggy parts. Beats the hell out of being fat though.

If you're already enhanced there's no reason to not be on Tirzepatide, clenbuterol is trash especially if it's sourced from a UGL...

Unfortunately it seems to be luck of the draw man. Some people have sagginess even after losing weight, others don't. I don't think there's any way for anyone to predict. Worst case cosmetic surgery is pretty inexpensive compared to what people think.

You could add fasted cardio. How much HGH are you taking? Clen is a very good compound for cutting, but only when you are lean. The skin should tighten up a bit. But if it was major fat loss, you may need surgery. Also, Tirzepatide has a lot of benefits for fat loss and anabolism. I would definitely take it.
