1st week cutting-Diet + Questions

[LiftingKid]

After stubbornly bulking for about a year and a half, going from 116lbs to 174lbs, I decided it was a good time to cut. Anyway, I have been logging my foods on fitday for the past 3 days and would appreciate a critique. http://www.fitday.com/WebFit/PublicJournals.html?Owner=LiftingKid

I did lose quite a bit of weight this week, about 5lbs. Should I be concerned with this and bump up my calories or is it just water/glycogen? Would you reccomend I do a refeed once a week?

your fitday looks pretty good, assuming that 2500 cals is under maint. I wuld try to add some veggies in there also.

As far as the 5 lbs, it's more than likely just water and stool. I wouldn't suggest a refeed unless you were doing more of an extreme diet.
