Trouble meeting macros while intermittent fasting

I was stressing over my diet. I always eat clean, but I hate breakfast typically. Plus, I only eat twice a day. I am in a caloric deficit and can make it lower if need be. My protein is high, fats are decent, while carbs are low. I'm going to be starting my first SARMS only cycle, so I wanted to also try IF, but seems as though I really don't need to stress over it.

Moreover, for a cycle thats geared towards weight loss and also muscle gain (using S4), will being in a caloric deficit be okay? I feel like being on S4, I would need to be eating more? Please let me know your thoughts.

Intermittent Fasting is a only a tool. I use it always when I cut but if you can’t handle it no need to do it. As long as you are in a caloric deficit that alm that matters. I use IF because I don’t eat breakfast also I like big meals in one sitting. My advice is always stick to something that you will be consistent and persistent with it. Do over stress if you are not doing it.

I have used S4 in a caloric deficit and I held on to muscle while eating low calories and as for muscle gain I’m not sure as I was running other compounds while running S4. I will let the more experienced Sarm user chime in. I would suggest starting your own thread so more ppl can see it

That part in my post is a typo on the example of 60/30/20. It should be 50/30/20

Also I'd be willing to bet your metabolism is a little slower if you are 260. You probsbly 2ant maintenance to be more like BWx11 or 12 in my opinion. You can always adjust from there up or down. Those are all ju st general guidelines

No doubt bro lol
 
500g protein? Damn bro. How’s your kidneys holding up? And are you shitting ok? Lol.
 
300g sound much more reasonable lol. I would have to rely on liquid meals to hit that for sure.
