Without seeing pictures to compare, nor having actual measurements to quantify if there was actual loss, it's hard to say. Most likely, your body responded well to your initial training and now you've plateaued. While you may not have lost actual size - the tight, full, pumped feeling you felt when you began is no longer happening because your body has become more tuned to your new size. Another issue could simply be dehydration. Muscle volume is largely based on water, so drink fluid and see if that helps. And by fluid I mean not just water, add electrolytes.Remember any form of bodybuilding is basically like building a sand castle. It takes constant effort to maintain, and even more resilience to improve. Your body will want to reduce itself to be a more efficient organism. Just as waves keep trying to take down the sand castle, age and the vicissitudes of life will try to take down your body building efforts. Just enjoy the process and don't give up.
