I am struggling a bit with that now in the challenge. part of me wants to go full bore, restrict calories more and really lean out, but I hate that diet feeling.

But that's the thing you won't lean out so much as stunt your progress, because your body won't have enough fuel to do what it needs to do (and repair itself).
