Chris, My main goal has definitely been cutting my body fat. I haven't been weighing myself all that much lately, but I started at 194 and have been at 184 for the past week or two. While I haven't had a bf measurement for a while the old pants test tells me I've lost a bunch around the middle. (I'll say the mirror has been kind as well.)

For workouts I've been doing HGM phase 7 and HIIT, and I'm going to guess that I haven't had any increase in my lean body mass. But then again my workout is a cutting workout.

I was going to stop after 8 weeks but I am continuing since I haven't reached my totally arbitrary goal of 180 lbs, and the fact that the "diet" doesn't feel like a diet and fits well with my lifestyle. On the other hand, I am looking forward to those late phases of HGM for strength and growth. Maybe I can add a couple of pounds of muscle.

I hope this helps!
