Hey guys,
a fat beginner here, 2 months in. Looking for some advice.
First of all, I did read the STICKY and everything.
I am currently trying to lose weight. According to a BMI calculator I'm just inside the first stage of obesity class.
Anyway, I am eating at about 1400 - 1600 kcal a day, going to gym 3 days a week and running 3 days a week (my runs only burn about 300 kcal per session)
The thing that I'm confused about is, should I even go to the gym? Apparently you can't build muscle while in calorie deficit and my main goal right now is to lose weight.
So, should I continue this gym/run split or should I just focus on diet and cardio completely, get to my desired weight, and then start lifting and eat at maintain/surplus to gain muscle?

God dammit fuck you guys and fuck spinach.
>finally decide to get my shit together
>buy spinach, carrots, and a bunch of other veggies
>restrict my diet to 1800 calories a day to start with
>first day of eating spinach I notice that I've gotten more tummy rumbly
>take a liquid spewing shit
>no clue what caused it or how serious this was going to get aside from my obvious change in diet
>today have a steak, baked potato, and a bunch of spinach
>about two hours later feel the rumbly again
>think it's just more gas
>sitting at my desk
>let it rip
>I fucking shit myself
I FUCKING SHIT MYSELF, FUCK SPINACH AND FUCK YOU GUYS FOR SUGGESTING IT. I'VE NEVER HAD THAT HAPPEN TO ME BEFORE. I HAVEN'T FUCKING SHIT MYSELF SINCE I HAD A FEVER OF 104 AND THE FLU WHEN I WAS SIX YEARS OLDS. Fuck. I know my pride won't recover at this point but will my stomach stop with the rumbly?

why did you go commando to work?

If it is a radical change in your diet, your body is just getting used to it. Did you use to eat a lot of processed food before?
It should be gone after no more than a week's time.

I'm going to begin using Dianabol. I want to do a 4-5 week cycle. I'm going to be taking 10 mg a day during the cycle. I plan to start my PCT one week later on 20 mg per day of nolvadex for 2 weeks then 10 mg a day for 2 more weeks. Does /fit/ think this is a good schedule, or should I start my PCT the day after? Any other suggestions?

hey /fit/, does anyone struggle with a lot of self-doubt or self-hate when they lift?
after a month of consistently hitting the weights and eating lot's of food, I suddenly can't stand the sight of myself getting huge in the mirror. like i become so miserable
this happened to me last year when i tried to lift as well. how do i deal with this?

MY opinion is should should continue posting the set until you get a good sample size of answers
>>
Just try to get all your carbs from veggies, its pretty hard to eat too many carbs from that shit.
>>
>>37941022
Yes. This is exactly what you should do.
Don't even think about cutting from protein, and try to cut as much carbs as you can.

That's definitly planned. Still in DYEL mode though.

>>37941019
How's the fit-guy-ratio at conventions? Like how many percent are fat, average and fit.
>>
>>37941019
No. I'd like to go to one in regular attire though.

Is nofap worth it?
Has anyone on here ever done it for an extended period of time?
Or is it just a meme?
OR does it ONLY HELP people with certain genes that make them shitty autists if they masturbate constantly?

Don't fap too much. Don't watch porn. That's it. Maybe you can ditch it alltogether for the placebo effect.
>>
>>37940762
I wasn't aware being a NEET was a genetic disorder
>>
Never done nofap for a long period of time, think best I did was 2 weeks, I was horny less often but when I was horny I was almost rampagingly so.
When I finally bust a nut it was like a nuclear warhead going off in my head and my dick.
It's probably worth doing nofap just for better wanks. I'm doing it 1-2times a day at the moment and it's about as enjoyable as having a spoon of mediocre icecream.

is it pointless trying to get change diet / follow a exercise routine when there's an external pressure going on in your life?
I should get that under control first, yeah?

Stop coming up with excuses and exercise faggot. Something is better than nothing. At least do a body weight routine and try to eat as healthy as you can, even if it's not very healthy. Just try your best until you get your shit under control.
>>
>>37940734
yeah mayne I'm not gonna completely ignore it, but I feel like I'm being too rough on myself rn
I'm currently 18k EU in debt and my source of income is becoming more illegal by the day

I started lifting / counting macros as a 24 year old high-school drop out NEET.
I am 30 now. Got my HS certificate at 25, finished degree at 28, now working full time as a corrections officer and now I get to deal with the absolute scum of society.
Makes me realize I wasn't so bad after all!
Also, I earn more than other officers who don't have a criminology degree, so I get paid more than other people who've actually been working full-time during the time I was NEETing it up in Azeroth back in the day.
