I still cannot see the photos. But I would just keep the same split you’ve been running and make your leg day more ham vs quad bias

Are you doing any rehab / prefab work at all, stretching daily, foam rolling, massage work, etc ? All these little things add up to improvement in this you just have to be persistent and religious with it

Patience as you are just starting your training journey. I would continue training and see how things tighten up over time.

If it is severe loose skin, then surgery may be the route to remove it if it is that important to you

It matters yes. But to what extent,
depends on the person.

I prefer fasted

The more you advance into your training over the years the more this will matter. But right now just nail the set up and movement pattern and crank on with it!

Back on plan and see how the next two days go and adjust accordingly from there. They should be in a lean enough spot at 4 weeks out that one day shouldn’t ruin the whole prep

First off I’d encourage you not to have that mindset of losing progress. Just use it as a positive time to rest your body, work on stretching, mobility work etc, everything to improve your performance once you are back in the gym.
2 weeks total rest besides walks, then you can ease into light exercise that doesn’t cause a lot of pressure
4 weeks you should be able to be fully back in
I’d just have diet at maintenance and stay clean with your meals and no junk

I’ve had periods of 7 and 4 months off at a time. You won’t lose progress in 4 weeks, just fullness, which comes right back once you’re back to training
