Cutting but not hungry

I just started a cut as well. Bout a week in, dropped my calories from 2700 (maintenance) to 2450 daily.

If I dont lose weight in two weeks at a steady rate, ill drop another 100 cals. I'd recommend the same. Patience on a cut will yield saving muscle in the long run.

Keep going with that amount of calories, you should get hungry soon, if you never do, drop the calories by 100.

Your metabolism is adjusting, don’t cut too fast. Go for another week, then weigh yourself & if no progress then reduce 150-200 calories. Do that until you don’t see any more progress for another week, then repeat until you’re happy with results

Go by the scale not your hunger and I’d cut 500-1000 calories depends how it works for you. Stay at 2500 for another week and see how much you weigh compared to when you started. If the scale isn’t moving your number is wrong. What are your stats height and weight?
