Yes, I had a bit of banoffee pie and a beer last night. I wish I had better motivation. :o(

I keep having that beer I say I won't have, eating some desert, or just snacking over my calories. I can only stay where I want to be in calories when I do 23:1 intermittent fasting, but my dad yells at me then.

I want to know how many of you guys have obese family members.

Personally I have quite a few but the fattest is my little bro who has a gut twice my size even though I'm 245lb 5"10

Apparently, he's less heavy than me but then again he's 5"8.

anybody here have any family that is obese?

>>40759356
Not him but also been eating at 1500 for a month; IF, a lot of coffee, a lot of water, and low carb.

lbs. I'm 145-lbs 5' 10"

I want to be about my weight but with a bit of muscle, but my back is fucked up so I can't do a lot of exercises. So either want to get to 140-lbs and then try to add 5-lbs of muscle to get back to 145-lbs or so...

>>40759373
What's your eating window?

Yeah I've been trying to avoid the carbs because I found out those just make me more hungry. I swear eating rice just makes me hungrier at this point.

>>40759356
I eat 800 psmf type diet, just fill up on low cal veg, cottage cheese and lean meat. Also do IF so I consume all my cals in the evening and go to bed full.

>>40759392
I don't stick to a general timed regimen, I just cook a massive dinner and count the calories. I guess it's generally from 7pm-11pm. Yeah, do avoid rice for that reason.

anybody else never been thin their entire life? I was always fat and I am looking forward to losing the rest of the weight i need to

>>40759379
Thats too skinny, you need more muscle than that. You should do a lean bulk, you'd look way better than being some stringy looking guy.

what can you do if you have thin friends and they want to eat fastfood?

I'm exercising as much as I can getting six days a week. About 25 to 40 minutes a day, the only problem is I don't know how to eat well. Every where I go is meme diets and mom's science. I just need to eat at 1800 calories. Where could I go to get good recipes, meal plans and other things to help me finish slaying this beast I'm almost there im so close but zip believe I've hit a wall.

>>40759444
Thanks for the feedback. I didn't think it was that thin...I'm like right in the middle of a normal BMI right?

How do I lean bulk? Eat my TDEE and exercise? I don't want my waist size to go up / have to buy new clothing.

I've been trying to do bodyweight work, but my job keeps me so busy I'm exhausted at night.

>>40759356
>is there some trick to not being extremely hungry?

At the very least you can control when you're hungry by controlling when you eat. By concentrating most of your eating into a smaller window of time you can avoid being hungry during that time, if you get to eat enough. If you make this window of time the latter half of the day, you won't have to be hungry when you go to sleep. This is what intermittent fasting is.

Another trick is to just be hungry. Hunger doesn't force you to eat. You think that you can't withstand the hunger. But maybe you can. Keep reminding yourself that you control your eating and not your hunger. Maybe it'll affect how you actually feel about being hungry. You might stop considering it a problem that needs to be eliminated.

There are choices of foods, drinks and activities that can reduce the actual amount of hunger your diet causes. But this is really hard to predict as people react differently to things. A starting point from which you can begin experimenting to see what works for you is to drink more and eat more fibrous and watery foods. Protein and fat are usually more satiating than carbs. But carbs come with fiber which also increases satiation.

You can of course combine intermittent fasting, meditating on your attitude toward hunger and trying to satiate yourself more efficiently.

>>40759456
Fastfood is easy to fit in. Just get a burger, no fries, and water. Or a salad or w.e. Check the nutritional guide, Kcals out > kcals in.

Thanks. I wish I could do a tighter eating window, but I have to entertain people at work for lunch most days. I eat small amounts, just enough to look like I'm eating, but just that bit of food generally gets my appetite going really hard.

I've been for sure trying to eat foods that keep me fuller longer. For example lunch I try to eat no - or very little - carbs, which does seem to help a bit.

It sounds like I need to practice accepting the feeling of hunger.

>>40759356
>>40759312 here
I'll tell you how I do it
Go IF - I eat around 11am then snack @14 and for the rest of the day I just dodge occasions to eat and drink fuckton of water/tea/coffee. By fuckton I mean fuckton, yesterday drank 2,5l of water + 3 cups of tea and 2 cups of coffee.
Also chewing gum helps to have something in your mouth.
Don't eat pasta - you won't ever get full, it's a lot of calories and you will be hungry an hour later.

I love plain brown rice 150g cooked + 120g steamed broccoli + 100g steamed carrots + 200g chicken breast boiled without skin. Veggies are hard to swallow at first - Ive never eaten vegetables before in my life and they tasted awful, but after week or so forcing they become an acquired taste and I kinda like them now.

Drink water to your meals and remember to chew - just gulping down won't make you feel full and you'll use all your calories.

Don't sit bored and browse web - I find myself prone to eating when I'm bored, so I constantly read books, watch movies, work, sleep or workout.
This works for me and I wish you success too, anon

Oh, also COUNT CALORIES.
I find myself overeating when I dont add entry to myfitnesspal. I don't feel hunger, I'd call it urge to eat, so I force myself to eat only as much as I need and I eat even when I dont feel hunger - always 11 and 14

>>40759572

yes you're a normal bmi but normal guys look like shit. If you're worried about waist size maybe cut another 5 lbs of fat then start eating tdee+250 cals and lift weights. In 6 months you'll have a decent base.

>>40759282
Started to cut 2 and a half months ago at 105,7 kg 193 cm tall BF 22,7%.

Currently I'm between 90-91 kg, around 15-17% BF and still eating 2300 kcal per day while going to the gym and doing regular cardio.

I haven't really lost any muscle which is great but I'm at a loss right now. Should I keep cutting to 85 kg or bulk and cut again after 2 and a half months?

>>40759496

Now i love going to the grocery store, i feel like i'm buying adult food for the first time in my life. Half of the stuff i buy is fruits and vegetables, the rest is rice, oats, milk, eggs, lean meats, fish and generally foods that are considered healthy.

When I see a fatty at the grocery store buying healthy stuff I think really positive of him/her. Yeah they //might// stuff their face later on, but, everyone has their struggle and as an ex-fatty I support them trying to get going in the right direction even if they fall down along the way.

Where I get a bit triggered at the grocery store is when I see a fat guy buying mostly healthy shit, but then I notice all the pitfalls in their cart too like fruit juice or "low fat" snacks.

I'm sure there are others that think exactly what you said, but, they are assholes.

and you get insane sweets cravings instead, cool trade off for people with willpower weak enough that they binge on normal diet

>>40759896
At 285 and 6'3, fluctuating five or six pounds is fucking nothing. You let one data point in a highly variable system convince you to change the method. Now you're letting a second data point convince you to doubt again. You need more time for the sake of consistency.

Stick with the original plan unless you are actually feeling wrong from lack of nutrition, at least until you can observe a trend.

>>40759968
true, either way think one cup of coffee is like 100mg of caffeine and you are suppose to do 200mg with E

>>40759878
don't fall for the ssri trap. Learn to meditate and read on stoicism.

Also, no one gives a fuck what other people buy in the grocery store. The real world isn't an FPS thread.

>>40759968
>and you get insane sweets cravings instead
Why do you say that? Not that anon but I've been doing keto for a while now and one of the benefits I've seen is lack of cravings not more of them. I don't have any interest in chocolates and shit now, and the few times I do have them I end up getting a tummy ache because my body isn't used to it (I'd say that's a downside of keto, the rare times I break it with a rich desert or something like that I get really ill)

>>40759986
I thought you take E + caffeine in pills + coffee and don't see effects
then yeah, maybe calorie free energy drinks/moar coffee/caffeine pills

>>40759992
Not that anon, but, what's the best thing to read to introduce my to stoicism?

>tdee calculator
I always wonder what setting I should pick on these things for the exercise question. Most of them say 1-3 hrs a week light exercise and 3-5 hours of moderate exercise. I lift weights 3 days a week at ~1 hour a day and I do some fairly intense cardio 3 times a week 20 min each. That's 4 hours total. Should I choose moderate? Because I don't see myself expending many calories while lifting weight so idk if that can truly be counted as "exercise". Enough to raise my tdee that is.

>>40759968
>humans build tolerance only to __stay awake__ caffeine effects as far as I know

I think the more accurate belief in this case would be that the tiredness alleviation is one of caffeine's effects that humans build tolerance to. Not necessarily the only one.

I also only know of the adenosine receptor adaptation that occurs with caffeine use. But caffeine affects other receptors in the brain too and I have no knowledge of how that works. So I can't be certain that I know all of things you build and don't build tolerance to with caffeine.

Meditation changed my life. I used to have such bad anxiety and used to overthink everything which would create many problems in my life. Meditation teaches you to not get too caught up in your thoughts and just live in the present moment without judging every little thing you do or thought you have. It made me realize that almost everything I was insecure and anxious about were all in my head and were just holding me back. It's very simple, yet freeing.

Years of consistently snacking and eating just a bit too much. I've never been thin, really.

Weightlifting does burn a lot of calories. You can set sedentary as an 'extra buffer', but you'll probably end up running a higher deficit than you think. If you get super hungry and lose weight fast, you should adjust your target after a few weeks or so.

>>40760090
I managed to hit normal weight two years and half ago hoping it would fix my shit and it turned out I didn't hate my life because I was fat but the other way around.

Calculators can only give you the general ballpark where you can begin guessing what your actual TDEE is.

>>40760548
Try the meditation and therapy before you take the pills. Give yourself a couple months. I can almost guarantee you won't need them. Pills are the easy way out and don't fix anything. But if you take the easy way out first they will ultimately become a crutch for you and hinder your real progress.

I've been drinking milk with vitamin D pretty much for vitamin D. Now I need to consume even less calories so I'm cutting milk.
I've seen my local pharmacy the had prescription free vitamin D and some general daily vitamins for men with vitamin D and whole bunch of other stuff. Is it worth picking that up or just vitamin D is better?

>>40759297
I literally took a sip of juice during IF. I fucking hate myself.

>>40760604
if you get plenty of vitamins from your diet you might not need them, but I doubt they'll hurt either.

>>40760635
Irrelevant if it doesn't lead to you pigging out. IF is great but don't forget its only there to make your hunger easier. You can break it every now and again

>>40760663
You don't fucking understand, I took A SIP of some fucking JUICE. You can't go back from that, there's no way I'm making it now, just leave me to die bros.

Hey /fat/ how y'all doin. I need you to lose another 30lbs before i can approve you for surgery okay. How much you lose since last time?

What degree is a skeleton mode, and if I go from fat to low bf% without building muscle will I hit it?

>>40760745
fit>thin>fat. So chances are higher yea, but you still aint godlike

>>40760745
if your goal is actually from fat to skelly with no muscle gain then I hope you know that you're gonna have tons of loose and horrible looking skin. I hope you got money for some surgery.

>>40760329
>Few hours after lunch I can legit get faint secession if I stand quickly and head just feels dizzy in general

Consider the possibility that these could be caused by things other than your caloric deficit. For example. the symptoms of hypothyroidism include both weight gain and low blood pressure. Dehydration is the most likely suspect though. Postural hypotension could also simply be a thing you've always had but just haven't noticed until now. Low blood pressure could also be induced by not getting enough sodium, though that's unlikely, if you eat anything like average people do.

Not everything revolves around food. But do get checked out by a doctor if drinking reasonable amounts of water and not depriving yourself of salt completely doesn't fix your dizziness.

>>40760745
If you diet and exercise you'll retain a decent amount of muscle.

My family, I've literally been fat since I can remember. My family tells me I would always cry when I was a baby and they'd give me some food. Funny thing is that in my huge fucking family I'm the only one who's fat. There's more to the story but that's basically the big reason.

>>40760797
I'm trying to avoid skeleton mode. I just feel like now that I'm down to skinny fat mode that I just look to pathetic and small.

>>40760183
Your TDEE goes down with your weight. So you need to re-calculate it after you've lost a significant amount of weight, which you did.

>>40760029
Fat packs on slowly. I went through stages of fat and skinny my whole childhood. My whole family except me is in amazing shape, I was the antisocial autist who always ate seconds, and after 23 years of that, here we are.

>>40760302
Recomping works if you're new to lifting, but I'd just eat 200 calories or so less than you're eating now. Make sure you get enough protein and keep lifting. You'll lose minimal muscle mass, if any.

One of my brothers was killed by a drunk driver when I was in high school and I shut myself away and just ate and ate and ate while sitting on a computer all day. Then a few years later my mom died of cancer and shit really bad and it took a long time to pull myself out of that rabbit hole and take responsibility for myself. Been working out 5-6 days a week and eating clean for a long time now

>>40760959
Fucking hope you're not an american. Even in europe an extra large pizza is at bare minimum 5000 calories. Fast for at 2 days, 20 hail marys and don't do it again, my son.

Haven't eaten more than my BMR since jan 9th. Started the gym on jan 19th. Down from 257 @ 6 ft even to 229 this morning. Been eating 1400 calories a day for so long this feels like the new normal.

Hello.
I'm trying to lose weight for the first time. I switched to a low carb diet and lost 4 kg the first week. Is that surprising or unusual? How do I deal with that information?
180cm/89kg now, 2600 kcal every day.

>not swallowing 6 laxatives and shitting out your lower intestine just in case

>>40761218
That 4kg would have been mostly water weight, but some fat too. It's normal to have a big drop at the start of your diet from less water and food being absorbed in your system. Still, it's quite a good start. Keep it up, fatty. But at 180cm 89kg, you might have to cut at 2000cal if you want to see any real progression in a good time span, but if you get lots of exercise then don't worry about it.

Doing leangains ie intermittent fasting just eat one big meal a day at night between 6 and 9 pm. No calories from soda or refined sugar. Lost 8 lbs in a week. Doing SS type routine.

Will I be shredded in a few years? I don't want to be scrawny or skinnyfat when I'm not fat.

Goal 175 lbs at 3 or 5 percent bodyfat And I'm 204 lbs right now so 29 left to go.

Slowly but surely, seeing results in my clothing. I bought a suit almost 2 months ago I couldn't fit into the pants but the jacket was nice and snug. As of yesterday I can fit the pants and the jacket it still quite nice on the shoulders. Despite my falls, I'm still progressing.

Need another 8ish kg off and I'll be happy.

>>40761218
Low carb means low fiber usually. Withing a few days of starting any diet the amount of poop you carry around is reduced because of this. The amount reduced is greater if you reduced your fiber intake a lot. So most likely the 4kg was just poop AKA "water weight".

But continue counting calories for two weeks and see if your weekly average weight has dropped. If not, reduce calories and monitor weight for another week. Repeat until you find the amount of calories that makes you lose weight.

>>40759536
Chicken instead of beef/pork
Sweet potato mash instead of rice
In a bowl instead of a tortilla.

Here's the nutritional info page from my local place for reference: http://www.burritojax.com/nutritional/

>>40761381
Thanks. I can't believe a cup of rice is 200 calories. That shit is off the table for me now.

Wheat tortillas are pretty bad too. When I order burrito bowls though, they always seem to come cold. I'll have to try it again :o/

Salads always come with guacamole and shit from those places.. so those are fucked.

Hey /fat/, first time posting on this board.

Moved abroad to be with a a girl, got married and then was told out of nowhere that she didn't wanna be with me anymore because she never found me attractive. All of that aside, i'm overweight and cant seem to find any way that works.

Since then i've been comfort eating and not getting myself in any proper direction. Any starts i make have crumbled to shit. I genuinely want to make a difference but don't know where to start.

My goal is to become so alpha that i'll never need a person like that in my life again. My weight is the biggest obstacle to that.

I want to change, /fit/. And now i feel like the support/abuse of a community of strangers is my last straw to grab.

I'll answer any questions you need.

>>40761426
>3 or 5 percent bodyfat

Forget it. This about the absolute lowest a male's bodyfat can go. 12% is already athlete-level shredded. Also, the lower your BF% is, less calories are portioned off fat tissue in a deficit. It gets harder and harder the lower you go.

Otherwise, you're doing well if you're already counting calories and lifting. Your first week of weight loss shouldn't be counted as that's usually just a reduction in the amount of poop you carry. Keep monitoring weight with weekly averages and adjust calories as needed to keep losing weight.

>>40759536
Burrito bowl, no rice, no corn. Hold back on beans if you want. Everything else is low cal but filling.

I usually do lettuce, chicken, sometimes barbacoa, hot salsa, guac, cheese, and sour cream. It's like no carb except for the salsa.

>>40761500
Why would we care enough to ask questions. Lose weight fatass and don't blog until there's some progress worth blogging about

You are eating junk food, but you know that. It's not healthy, even if you are below your calories. But you knew that too.

Probably not. Depends on water weight really

>>40761514
Thanks. I thought guac, cheese and sour cream might be pretty calorie heavy though? I know guac and cheese have good fats in them though, which might lead to being more satiated?

Well i mean... If there's anything you needed to know about my physique or what i eat. Literally taking all the help i can get, even if it's shitposting.

>>40761532

Dated for a year and a half before i proposed, i was in the UK, she was in Sweden. Moved over after 2.5 years together as seeing no potential for a future in the UK.

Got married after living here a year, we were married for 2 years before she decided to get a boob job and got super egotistical from all the attention. Eventually she just said she didn't want to be with me anymore, despite me having moved to another country and dedicated my life to her.

In the space of about 3 months i went from happy and conceited to losing my wife, my home, my cat, and slipping into a really downward spiral.

Now it's about 5 months since the split, 2 months living alone. I've pulled myself out of the depressive spiral and want to become fully ripped. To marry somebody only to have them tell you that they were just kidding about finding you attractive is cold. I want to get slim enough to never need her or anyone like her in my life again as an emotional support, so i feel like i can look after myself.

The irony is that i feel like i need to turn to you lot first...

Appreciate the change of heart, anon. She really was my everything and to have that happen to me was painful. It's taken a lot of time to even get to the point of blocking her out or just talking to other women in the same way.

I cleared everything i had from my computer and facebook a couple of weeks ago. However i was able to rustle up this picture from before the boob job. We'd been married about a year and went to the wedding of a mutual friend in Bulgaria.

Also part of my problem is that i'm way heavier than i look. Other people who are my weight have been way bigger than me. It gives me encouragement in that when i actually lose weight i'll be built like a tank.

The rage part is true though. My entire motivation is to get so good looking that she'll ask to have my back, only so i can tell her to go fuck herself. The emotional abuse since the breakup has been horrible as well.

>>40761838

Thank you, Anon. It is wonderful to feel welcomed.

>>40761593
Are you keeping track of your progress in a way that lets you clearly and succinctly visualize your successes and failures over a long period of time? Recording your daily calories and macros along with your workouts gives you motivation to stay consistent when you look at graphs or tables that summarize what you've achieved or not achieved in the past.

Impulsive feelings push you toward actions that aren't in line with your goals. You feel guilty afterward but only momentarily. Looking at your past track record brings back the memories of your failures and gives you an emotional push that helps you resist your other non-helpful impulses. Also, looking at a clean record of consecutive successes over weeks will make you feel like wanting to protect that streak which is another emotional support for resisting impulses.

So, if you don't have spreadsheet or use some app to hold your statistics, start using one now.

Entirely hers. She'd been pushing for it for years but i was always scared of the idea of her getting more attention like that. Eventually she just booked it and went for it and pretty much everything i thought would happen happened.

What hurts more is how she was my first for everything. First fuck, first wife, even first kiss. I put so much into it that i dunno how i'm gonna find somebody else now that i'm now "Somebody's ex husband." I'm only 24, but i've had to deal with 5 months of thinking "Holy shit, my life is over" repeatedly before reaching this point.

Feels good to be over it finally and actually taking a step to make a change, even if it is turning to 4chan...

So ultimately you'd like to get yourself to a point where you're not as hard-up to slam a huge volume of food in your body like you've been used to for so long.

But starting out when you're struggling you can look for food that's not calorie dense so you can get that volume of food you need to feel comfortable. like a salad.

Just for example, have you had the whole size salads at panera bread? The bowl is fucking massive and there's a lot of salad there. Caesar Salad with Chicken (- Curoutons) (+double chicken) is 450 cals, and only 370 cals if you go light on the dressing.

Former 455lb planet down to mega fatty here. Hovering around 350lbs at 6'4". Was trying and failing to lose weight on 700-800 calories a day. My doctor practically slapped me when I told him what I was doing and he said my stupid choices reflected in my bloodwork. Low in all B vitamins, K, D, my Leptin is off the charts, and something to do with a super under active thyroid. (According to his observation)

Long story short, he recommends ketosis diet. Didn't even give me a calorie limit when I asked and said to just eat strictly on the diet, eat until I'm full, not stuffed.

Related, has anyone been "shamed" when food shopping? I'm putting my stuff on the belt at the super market and I just so happened to be put behind a vegan I think. All he had were fruits, vegetables, tofu, and a bunch of shitty looking snacks from the organic hippy section. Gave me a dirty look while shaking his head. I've been targeted for bullying long long ago, but this shit was petty. Made me just laugh.l as I was loading my steaks, chicken breasts, eggs, sausage, and full fat Greek yogurt onto the belt.

>Somebody's ex husband

You have no kids.

You're not even 25 and you've already fallen in love with your first girlfriend and got married. That's the impossible dream most people envy here.

You not only lived the dream... you then realised, if not by choice, it was a sham in such that no one can ever hurt you worse than this woman again.

You have not, or at least are not contemplating suicide. Seriously.

You got out of the sham with no kids.

No woman approaching 30 is going to think twice about a faithful divorced single man with no kids who supported his wife so much to follow her abroad as damaged goods. (Provided he is not deluded he is a beast under 100+lbs of flab)

You're ex wife has got fake tits. Literally bags of silicon sown into her tittays to make her feel better about her pudgey self. You think there are men lining up to date divorced chicks with fake tits. She's gonna get passed around like a hot potato, as much as that hurts.

And finally... And most importantly.

You're in complete denial about being built like a tank under your fat because you have 'big calfs' and 'quads' which are only big because they've been lugging your fat around for best part of decade because fake tits have been calling you bigboy since your teens.

Your honestly is appreciated. I feel like i made the right decision in coming to you, /fit/.

As much as it can hurt hearing, it's that hurt that's gonna get me slim.

I've lurked a couple of threads and got an idea of what to start with.

I'll start with taking a run tomorrow morning. I'll keep track of my weight on a spreadsheet and take a few pictures for the sake of before and after. I'll cut my portions down and get some simple weights so i can do some easy lifting at home.

I'll post my progress once in a while and be sure to take my lumps for being the fatass i am.

Thanks for making me realize that i have more ahead of me chaps. I'll make sure to update my progress.

Praise Kek, keep your fats away!

I'm a poorfag, should i buy:

a) rice cooker that can also be used as a steamer
or
b) a microwave

a) would allow me to cook rice fresh every day, i have been meal prepping and rice that was frozen is awful. It would also allow me to prepare meats without oil also would make it easier to prepare some vegetables fresh.

b) would allow me to reheat my meal prep stuff, also would allow me to cook potatoes and frozen vegetables quickly without using the stove.

>>40763720
proper rice is really good, go for that

>>40763903
because it takes 20-25 minutes for boiling water and another 15 to cook the rice. A ricecooker takes 10-12 minutes and you don't have to pay attention to it.

When i feel hungry i look at myself in the mirror
I remember every time ive looked at a girl and felt like i wasnt good enough for her because of my disgusting body
I remember every time i felt left out and ostracized and separate as a kid. Every time i was the last one to get picked in gym class
And then i dont feel hungry anymore

>>40759356
>but is there some trick to not being extremely hungry?

Stock your fridge with food that is low calorie density.

Try to focus on eating as many vegetables as possible and less processed carbs.

>>40763997

I'm feeling this.

I don't want to get too far ahead of myself, but I kinda want to see if my old clothes I haven't worn for years fit me yet

I probably shouldn't though because I'm terrified of getting complacent and going back to old ways

>>40763102
Going really low in calories has that risk of not having enough micronutrients since you'd need to get the required amounts from a drastically smaller quantity of food. I strongly recommend eating a multivitamin, additional vitamin D and, as you apparently need it, a vitamin K pill too. Multivitamins don't have K usually as there are idiots who take 2-3 of multivitamins per day and might overdose on K like that. Look up the recommended intakes for these and make sure you get enough of everything.

I've got a spreadsheet where I keep track of all macros and micros. It was a little trouble setting up but now that I've figured out the foods that give me complete nutrition I can just eat the same stuff every day and I no longer spend any time thinking about whether I'm getting everything.

Exactly this.

My grandmother & grandfather (who didn't balloon up like the rest of her generation; and are 89 and 94, respectively) always said that whenever you get a hunger pang (not pain, "pang"), just drink some water.


They almost out lived me ffs, I nearly died last February from an impact, if it wasn't for telomeres shutting down cellular rejuvenation, those two would live forever.

Got fat after some medical procedures that fucked up my diet.

Lost 40 pounds and was just above overweight.

Another medical procedure and medicine caused me to bloat up and lose all of the progress in like three months.

Next year I would lose 20~ pounds then gain it back every few months a few times just to keep me in the 190 - 210 range.

Year after that I had major surgery on my leg that made me immobile for six months, coupled with a shitty diet I ballooned to 250.

As of today I am 225, excited to see what the future holds as I haven't had any medical emergencies in a long time.

>>40759282

Used to be 340lbs @ 6ft 6in tall

Lost 110lbs now 230lbs and trying to get strong as fuck.

Time to pray to the Bogs that height and facial aestheics can compensate or I might just decide to get surgery with GBPs because my parents have offered. Don't really want to right now for a few reasons though.

BIA handhelds and scales are no way near this accurate. You might as well eyeball your BF%. Their problem is that they don't analyze the entire body but only a part of it and estimate the state of the rest of the body based on that. They're still shit.

There's apparently some newer stuff that combines the handheld and scale. I don't think it's cheap and the info of its accuracy comes from the company making them, so you can't be sure they aren't just bullshitting.

The best thing about it is it's really, really filling, super delicious, and if you ever want to eat more you just add another tomato for only 50cals.

I don't know what kind that is. If it's the kind of BIA that's like this https://www.inbodyusa.com/pages/inbody570 where you step on the scale and hold the electrodes then it's probably better than the ordinary handhelds or scales. But even if the military has enough budget for the latest and greatest gadgets they won't necessarily focus on accuracy in their BF% measurements but rather speed since they have a need to measure lots of people. So, it makes sense for them to use BIA despite it's inaccuracy because it's simple and quick.

Well, if you normally control your sodium to be at a constant level every day and that amount is different than normal, then you shouldn't bother. If you don't control it, then tomorrow's no different from any other day in that your sodium is a varying factor and you should measure your weight.

all the pain i suffer for those 6 days is to compensate for this one day. i must be stronger next week to try to stay under 2kcal.

Don't restrict yourself to "healthy foods" as ingredients. The healthiness of your diet depends on the total sum of the nutrients you eat. Enough of some, not too much of others, etc. Choose whatever combination of foods that achieves this.

Don't bother looking up recipes. All you need is 1-2 main ingredients and 1-2 ingredients for taste, usually oil and salt. Fatty and salty food is delicious. You can use unflavored whey protein as ingredient in things like oatmeal. Fresh fruit and vegetables don't need to be cooked and are delicious. All you need to know is how to fry and boil things. There's really no need for anything fancier.
