At the gym a couple nights ago, I used the little X-box-like controller-thingy measurement tool to see where I stood.

I'm 30.4%, which means I have 158-160 lbs. of lean body mass. I'm going to try a 4 week cutting phase.

As of tomorrow, I'll no longer be lifting heavy. I'll be doing 4 sets of 12 reps of each muscle group (lighter weight). Before lifting (Su-Th), I'll be doing 30 minutes of mid-intensity on the elliptical trainer. On my days off (F, Sa), I've been running on the treadmill at home for a 1.5 miles.

My question is this: Right now, I'm on the Keto diet (low-carb, low calorie [~1700/day], high protein). For the simplicity of things, should I just keep my diet the same?

Thanks,

- Dustin
