Post cycle, I gained a little unwanted weight around my abdomen (where any weight I gain seems to go) so i'm keen on shedding it especially as I'd like to start my second cycle sometime next month.

In the past as a natural trainer, I always ate in a deficit, adjusting my macros to a low fat and moderate carb ratio, in addition to incorporating fasted am HIIT cardio. The trouble is I find I begin dropping weight dramatically as soon as I drop the calories even to maintenance level. I wondered if any former skinny guys had the same issue and could suggest some pointers for successful cutting.

Thanks.
