Your peds are good to retain muscle. You’ll lose easily multiple lbs of water the first week along with the fat. You could lose 5-7 lbs the first week because of water and be cool not losing muscle. Unless your under 10% bf I don’t think you’re losing muscle at the rate you’re at. I’d only suggest out of the 1860 calories that you get 1.5 grams of protein per body weight and don’t reduce that. Any additional calories dropped have to come from carbs and fat. Do you know approx what bf % you are right now? I can tell you once I hit 12% it was 1 pound a week , if I wasn’t at zero due to muscle replacing fat lb per pound but I have hgh to thank for that.

I'm under 10% I know that. Core is veiny and I can see abs

You can drop 3-4 lbs for a week or 2 due to water and thats def not muscle loss. After that itll slow down because at 10% you dont have much left to go. Im at 10% as well and im at 1/2 lb or so a week although its hard to tell cause the hgh is making me build muscle too so a pound lost is countered by a poubd gained right now for me.
