I know you've lost some weight recently. Is this how you did it?

Kfisherx, you're a straight shooter. I like that. You're right, I shouldn't worry about strength going down. Fat loss is my highest priority right now. My problem in the past has been fat loss plateaus from cutting too many calories to see the numbers drop, but I'm hoping the zig-zag will keep that at bay. Thanks for your encouragement, everything is becoming crystal clear and I know what I need to do!
