When I go to gym I feel tired, weak and can't do progressive overload.
I feel like I should be cutting but also that I look like a skeleton at the same time.
I primarily want to get rid of chest and belly fat.

You definitely need to gain some muscle. Cutting now would achieve nothing.
Up your calories until you feel better (make sure you have enough fats), if necessary take a deload and start ramping up again.

You have zero reason to cut.
You’re already very thin.
Gain muscle, worry about cutting in a few years once you’ve built a base.The power of carbs compels me!

Basically thats not possible for you right now because you have virtually zero muscle on your frame, cutting further would indeed having you looking like a skeleton.Originally Posted by meshgrid
You need to eat enough so that you can gain about a pound a month for the next 12-18 months while following a novice lifting program like Fierce 5, Stronglifts, Starting Strength, etc.All it takes is consistency, effort, proper nutrition, good programming, and TIME.

I have a feeling you're going to continue spinning your wheels just like the last time you asked this.Originally Posted by meshgrid
