Thanksgiving Friday marks the start of cut season. Who's ready to get started?

I'm stuffing my face with pie and all the leftovers I had from yesterday right now. Shit is fantastic.
Going out partying with my bros tonight and then tomorrow I'll nurse my hangover and start work on this cut. Currently 185 including the food and water I'm holding. Goal is about 170.
I don't wanna.
But I'm getting sorta fat tbqh
Guess it's that fucking time of the year again
how is the winter cut season? I just finished cutting. I'm lean bulking so that I won't have to barely cut at all for summer. If you have to start now that doesnt make it cutting season, it just means youre on a perma-cut
20lbs to go, 1 month for the beach trip, guess abs will have to wait till next year (again)

Since this is cutting general....
Skinny fat 160lb 6'0 male here. I bulked up from 145 in about 2 months. While I'm gaining strength and muscle mass, I'm really starting to notice some fat gain, and clothes that were once loose are now too tight. Should I cut or continue on bulking to exit skinny fat mode?

Oldfag here, it's cut season because my metabolism has slowed down and it takes longer to work off Thanksbulking.

I thought cutting season was late winter, early spring.

Either you're cutting "season" is just a month or you're cutting over Christmas like some fucking retard. Christmas is the home stretch of the bulk. It's where you let it all out and eat like a pig.

Maybe decrease your surplus a bit? 15lbs in two months seems pretty fucking aggressive, youll hit a level where your muscle:fat ratio spirals out of control(you probably put on mostly fat unless you're on dat dere cell tech). I personally would've cut first and then built up from a lean frame, but I'm also a former fatass. You'll make it brah.

6ft. I can still see my abs right now for whatever reason but the scale is saying 14.9% so I figure I'll cut while I'm still ahead.

The plan I'm on is lean bulk lightly (not really a lean bulk) until thanksgiving when I have that last godly cheat meal provided free of charge by family that's literally forcing me to eat huge amounts.
Day after that the cut starts and I keep going until I reach the goal I've set. Hopefully I'll be done by February or march. For certain I'll be shredded before summer gets here.
guys i just started 2 months ago and ive been cutting and doing hiit on my rest days, my lifts are going up slowly, hold me please
I'm nearing week 9 of a 10 week bulk. I'm gonna fuck up these thanksgiving leftovers and then some before I go back
I start my cutting season on Monday. Gonna spend my weekend eating all the leftovers.
Gonna do keto with an EC stack. Might consider IF within a couple weeks

Why is keto a meme? I've literally never felt a difference between keto and a say 40/40/20 style, the only difference is less water retention keto from no carbs. IF is legit though, especially when you set it up correctly and you feel like you've eaten like 5k calories.
How long does it take to go from 15% body fat to 10% body fat? I'm not even close to cutting yet but I've been ~15% for the past year of lifting so I'm wondering how long it's gonna take once I finally start
>>35060289
12weeks conservatively since you've provided no other info
>>35060575
I'm 5'9 161lbs 15% body fat (maybe lower, but I'd rather overestimate)
