So if I got a bit of strangely tough tissue beneath my man tits, that's gyno then? My tits have decreased in size by a lot since I've lost weight but now I'm worried I'll end up keeping them by the time i get to my goal weight.

Doing ok. Averaging 1450-1500 calories a day. Upped my workouts from 3 days a week to 7 days a week.

lost 30 lb since february. averaging about a lb to a 1.5 lb a week.

>>41669575

>>41669524
Nothing to confess here. Kept under 1000 calories the whole week.

>>41669542
Fry some garlic in a tablespoon of olive oil, add fresh spinach (300grams for me)
When sweated remove from heat and try to squeeze as much of the liquid as possible.
Chop them and add to the ricotta (250 grams) and 20 grams of Parmesan.
Boil cannelloni pasta and fill up with the ricotta mix.
I made 17 cannelloni total, served with tomato sauce on top and some more cheese, bake in the oven until the cheese is golden.

Sticking to my diet on a trip sucks but I'm feeling good. Haven't gone over once this week even with all the excess food and drinks around.

>>41669703
thanks anon you inspired me to do something similar with spinach and vegan cheese, but I am afraid I can't eat too much carbs from the pasta.
What's the macros for one cannelloni ?
I'm trying to think of other carb free alternatives to cannelloni pasta, preferably vegan any advice is most welcomed!

I know, Anon, my mom does the same thing. Matter of fact I had saved a celery for making vegan lentil stew yesterday night, and when I get to cooking in the kitchen it's all gone. I ask where it is, she says she made some sort of flour based carbloaded traditional third world soup with the macros of a fast food meal combo drink included. Protip mom, it's not because you throw in a couple celery branches in there that it's going to be healthy. Whatever man, I am moving out soon anyway and I won't have to deal with this shit anymore. It's not like I don't cook for myself and buy my own groceries, it's that there are literal goblins raiding the fridge to loot my gains on a daily basis. My brother is guilty of that too. I always keep a water bottle to get cold in the fridge at all time to rotate when I finish one. He comes along the other day, can't be fucked putting one for himself, and takes the water bottle to bring it to his room. I put my foot down and said, hey I am saving this bottle to drink I need it, and proposed to give him half of it in a jug because I am nice. it's like I live in a fucking barn where everyone serves themselves only, no one has the fucking consideration to think, hmm who put this bottle/celery here? do they need it? are they looking forward to consuming it?

oh wow, I expected much more carbs for a serving, I could realistically eat three servings and not fall out of ketosis. I won't consume any more than that since I will probably have to share with my family, and by sharing I mean them eating a decent amount at dinner, then sneaking into the kitchen late night to scarf the whole 10 servings left in a binge. so realistically I will have 3 servings of it. I don't care really because I love cooking more than eating in some sense.

I just thought of this, but isn't freezing cola zero like the best summer treat for dieting that exists?

>>41669859
No. No it is not. Not in the slightest.

>>41669859
Yeah, make coke ice cubes and put them in the blender. Its like a sluhy

>>41669817
I recomend serving them with tomato sauce, you could use bechamel sauce ( and it could potentially go better together) but it adds too many cals and carbs

>>41669524
Had texas toast instead of just buns on a meal from Waffle House, knowing it would put me over my calorie limit.

Spent another 30 minutes on my bike though to make up for it.

>>41669954
thanks for the tip, I was going to go with tomato sauce on instinct, but the taste profile alliance with bechamel got me thinking I could experiment a bit more.

Alright lads, I have no fucking self control. I was at 1k cal and only had 500 cal to eat yet I fucking binged on cookies and chips. How the fuck am I going to fix this issue? I make up 2000x reasons to eat something and it's killing me.

>>41670089
Well if I were just cooking for myself it would be lean meat + stir fried veg + salad. We ate out on Thursday so maybe I'll see if I can convince him to stay in and cook something not terrible for us.

I've been having awful diarrhea on keto. I've been on for about 2 weeks. It just really started today. I'm seriously considering getting off and just doing a normal diet and watching my calories more closely. Especially considering I've barely lost any weight since 4 days ago.

it was one of those layers biscuits with the flaky crust, sometimes during ketosis you need a recarb cheat day, that was my breakfast. its odd how keto cheat days involve like normal healthy stuff regular dieters eat

>>41670172
If you have no self control, don't buy this stuff in the first place ever. Throw out whatever junk you have now, preferably dump everything instead of just throwing the bags in the trash so you aren't tempted to be a fucking raccoon.

When I was a lot fatter I basically had no self control around nearby junk food either, but found it was pretty easy to avoid purchasing bad food in the first place. Fortunately now I have the discipline to occasionally buy this stuff and enjoy it without binging. In time, you can reach this point too.

yeah you might take me for a stuffed chicken if you think I'm going to believe there wasn't any other alternative to the fried chicken in your house. Who only has chicken, oil and spices in their house? Nobody.
It's time you start acknowledging that you could have found a way if you really wanted to bad enough, you just were demoralized to find that one of your attempts at bettering yourself was sabotaged by an enabler. I am not saying this to shame you or anything, I want you to realize that you are in the end a master of your own decisions, and you had it in you to resist the fried chicken. Good luck Anon. Get a minifridge in your room if you have the budget and lock it.

Normally happens. Your body runs on carbs your whole life and your body converting to ketosis will usually have short term effect (LBM, Lightheadedness, Keto Flu, etc.) But once you surpass a month or two, you will be reaping the benefits of Ketosis.

The best diet is the one you stick to it religiously. Don't change it every time because you're not seeing results for a week.

Not been feeling good today. Recently been getting really bad mood swings from not eating much, felt practically suicidal yesterday, today in a really bad mood too. My breakfast is 3 protein weetabix, coconut milk, sweetener (o calories). I then wait most of the day for my evening meal of mostly vegetables, which I'm fine with except when I'm out and about.

At the very least, ask them to keep the food in grocery bags or clear out a cabinet and put all the junk food in there, out of sight.

When my mother used to bring home junkfood and put it on the kitchen counter, I would just throw it into her room and forget about it. My point is, it may be time to put your foot down and make them respect your diet.

Not sure what I'm doing wrong, it's been 7 weeks since I've started dieting and exercising. For the last 3 weeks I've had no weight loss: I'm stuck at the 83kg/182lb to 84kg/185lb range.

I'm eating about 1700 calories (300~ deficit), and 3 times a week I'm doing about an hour worth of weightlifting exercises in my house (I got those adjustable dumbbells and every session I try to increase either the reps or the amount of weight on them).

I THINK I'm seeing some visual progress (a little less fat around the waist, slightly bigger arms), but I might just be deluding myself.

tl;dr My weight hasn't changed for the last 3 weeks, even though I think I'm doing every thing right. Is it possible I'm gaining an equivalent amount of lean mass while losing fat weight?

How do you feel right now, anon? It may be worth taking a few minutes to meditate on your current state of mind. Do you feel in control right now? Are you worried you may binge?

Instead of trying to keep yourself from eating, maybe try a snack high in fiber and nutrients, but also have a nice healthy fat with it. I find myself getting kind of nutty and pre-binge-y because I haven't had enough fat in my diet the previous couple days.

Want to start Keto, still scared of making a proper diet plan since most of my life I just ate whenever I was hungry, which I am not actually most of the time, so the idea of getting the daily necessary intake seems rough for me.

Hey guys, /fat/ contest organizer here.

I still have one slot available for the main contest. If you're active, you can join the July tournament. I'm pretty sure most of you are aware of what it is, but just to reiterate...

Weigh-in every friday against 40 other people, try and lose either the most pounds or the highest percentage in the week. If you win then I post about it and you get to have the biggest nuts for the week and the satisfaction of competition.

That said, first come first serve. I'll need the following details -

Name -
Height -
Starting Weight -
Current Weight -
Goal Weight -
Pounds to lose (If more than 20 lbs, just list that first 20 lbs for incremental purposes) -
Losertown Goal Date (For that first 20 lbs or less) -

From there, I'll update all your values and you're set to weigh-in come Friday.

Document can be found here -

anyone else here watch secret eaters and really empathize with the people there?

i used to be just like it. I would eat tiny bits of loads of things (a fun sized chocolate bar, a cookie if someone offered, a piece of bread with ham on it, etc) and forget all about it. so when it came to tallying what i ate throughout the day, i would only count the big meals and be super confused as to why i was so fat.

>>41670412
put 315lb on and don't stop pulling until you get it up

I watch some episodes as well as obesity documentaries, but not entirely for the same reason. I am doing psychocognitive therapy on my psyche by eating my meals while I eat this so I appreciate the true value of food, as well as disgust myself enough not to overeat and basically to keep a mental image of what I could live like if I did not keep healthy habits.

I feel a lot better since I lost weight, my face gains are amazing and I look decent with clothes on, but I somehow manage to look like I have >20% bodyfat even at the low end of what is considered normal weight for my height.
I don't fucking get it, I don't mind losing weight its easy at this point, but when will i finally look good?

I love cardio but I fucking hate strength training, probably never going to look decent without it though.

my PE teacher told me back in the day that when you start losing weight you won't notice for a long while, because the fat stores in and around your organs disappear first.

i can't seem to find a source for this, though. anyone know if it's true?

walked 2.5 miles on threadmill did 5x5 sitting leg presses 150 stairs and about 5 minutes on elepitcal.

A few hours later, sore as shit, (in my shoulders) legs chaffed and my foot hurts.

I want to goto gym tomorrow. Wat do

>>41671376
Go and once you start working out the soreness goes away.

>>41671376
last resort solution is to take BCAAs. They work about two weeks after starting intake and take away the muscle soreness after effort. A minimal dose is needed and you can find it at reasonable prices at myprotein.com.

Hey fellow fat
I know it's slow. I've been in this for nine months and only lost 15kg. that's due to not really paying as close attention to it as i should have (if i was more strict with myself i would have easily been 20kg down by now), but don't let that get you down!
Getting healthier is extremely long-term. In fact, it's a lifetime decision. You will cheat and feel shitty about it, you will swing a little in weight, you will have random stops in weight loss for several weeks and have to troubleshoot your own body to find the source and fix it.

You are a soul in a brain piloting a fleshmech, anon. A fleshmech that needs to be upgraded, checked and maintained. If you have enough dedication to become your own mechanic, you will see stable, long-term results.

My best advice to not get discouraged by how slow your life is moving is to take progress pictures and measure yourself.
Weigh yourself every week, on the same day, at the same time, naked.
Measure your neck, hips, waist and thighs every month on the same date. Then take progress pics and write your measurements on them along with your weight.

Looking back at those pictures a year from now will be incredibly satisfying, i promise.

There are 8 bars of chocolate in my fridge. Those I can handle, I get them for free every 2 months when I donate blood - half of them go to the office drones upstairs, half of them go to the working stiffs downstairs.

But this time there was also a cola-flavoured lollipop and a chocolete covered wafer biscuit.
The lolli is gone.
The wafer is still there.
Nobody will know if it's gone.

>>41671444
listen anon, it's not much you're working with in terms of overlaying fat tissue. You can shred that if you go on a more drastic cut, but I'd recommend starting weight lifting and sticking at it for at least a year eating clean and sufficiently before you decide to shred that fat. Why? Because then you'll have muscle to show for underneath and not fat and bones as it is now. This is the result of going from fat to skinnyfat bud, you need to work on muscle building now to "look good" or get the look you've vizualised starting this.

>>41671177
>but when will i finally look good?
When you do proper bodybuilding training.

Not the meme '3 reps is good, 5 reps is a lot, 8 reps means you up weight' but 12-20 work sets and 30+ reps for legs.

You haven't done proper training untill you know your 25RM squats and can bench press your weight class for 20+

help /fat/

i'm down 30 lbs and i've completely cut out eating candy and drinking soda. i really don't crave it any more.
However, i still very much enjoy cooking and baking, so they way i've managed that is by baking something extremely delicious and bringing to work or giving to my room mate.
My roomie has also gotten a bit fatter since I moved in two months ago.

i like the guy and i don't want anything bad for his health. Do I need to stop baking so he will stop eating it all, or is it his responsibility to limit himself when i bake?

For no reason, here is what I've made recently
>Dark chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter filling and a blanc beer frosting
>Apple tart filled with apples, walnuts and caramelized almonds (half eaten at work, other half eaten by roomie)
>standard white chocolate-dipped cake pops
>Eclairs with a chocolate drizzle and standard vanilla cream filling
>several portions of banana bread (with or without nuts)

>>41670647
Thats how I stayed fat for all my life. Until about a month ago when I got home from Uni I said no more. They offer me snacks and I decline. They leave them on the kitchen counter, large cookies and brownies.

Stay strong anon, and just say no.

>>41671559
cook healthier things that look good so people will still eat them but not know and nothing will go to waste. that way you're like a secret super hero making people around you healthier in secret. Be like the opposite of a gains goblin, be the gains wizard.

t. someone who made her mom lose a lot of weight by cooking healthier options so much that by default the binge eating fatty got healthier. Still a work in progress.

>>41671514
Yeah, slow clean bulk is probably the only way out, just gotta get my fat ass up to do it.

Gotta find a gym with good trainers, my posture sucks and if I just start lifting without a decent trainer I will probably fuck myself up.

Seconding what the first anon said: get a tape measure and record your measurements instead of weighing in. Also, how do your clothes fit? I'm also doing strength training and the scale says my weight hasn't changed but I've dropped a pant size and everything fits looser. Weight is not wholly indicative of your health.

Cauliflower rice (140 calories for 300g)
Tin of tomatoes, eggplant, zuchini, mushrooms, chicken pieces, and some curry sauce/seasoning. I'd guess around 500 calories all together. Fucking delicious and so filling.

I do aim for under 25, but i still live with my parents (until college is over atleast), and my mom is an italian so shes really having none of it.

You reach a plateau because your BMR has lowered due to your lowered calorie intake. If you do IF or fat fast, you'll see your weight drop off again.

When will I make the social gains? I don't know I am just focusing on physical health for now, thinking it'll make me change my aspie ways.

2 weeks of PSMF+Lifting everyday 1.5h+IF and I look bigger in the same t-shirt, feel amazing (more alert and focused + productivity increased) and I gained abs?

I have to be missing my count somewhere. I'm never reaching maintenance calories, I'm still at "1lb/week" loss calories.

>>41672199
Same. By the time I realized just how fucking bad my diet throughout childhood was I was already a fat fuck teen. And by that time you just don't fucking care because you're always hungry as a teenager.

>>41672203
It's not on me. I had no control over it. I ate what was put on my plate and in my lunchbox and now that I'm a young adult I'm a fat mess.

In college I went on a permabulk lifting spree for a year and a half which didn't help either. After that I went on a weight loss diet doing cardio and maintenance lifting but stopped lifting because I felt so fucking tired all the time. Now I'm just the basic not-so-skinny skinnyfat.

What's funny is it's not like I'm unactive. I run 2.2 miles Monday-Friday and do 70 situps and 50 pushups every M/W/F. I just don't look like I do anything but sit on the couch all day. Is there something more I can do?

That sounds tempting, if only for a week just to see what happens and get back on the normal weight loss diet again.

Nowhere am I seeing your height/weight, that'd help to know what we're dealing with here. Your problem sounds to be you were bulking without doing exercise... as in you ate too much like everyone else here. No use in making excuses, you need to own the mistake yourself, no one did this to you but you.

>>41671652

just don't. one day of above average hunger wont kill you. but look at yesterday's intake and see if there's any triggers there. such as an abnormal amount of carbs, or maybe some junk, or even something youre not used to eating.

6'2" currently 193 pounds. It may not sound that bad but let me tell you, if I relax my belly I look like an S-curve.

I lifted plenty during my bulk. I ate at no more than "1lb/week" gain calories and did SS w/o GOMAD the entire time.

That isn't that bad, all you're doing is losing weight for an aesthetic improvement, your BMI/health isn't going to be that bad from being at that weight height combo.

It's slow for me too and I weight over 10 pounds more than you, once you get below a certain threshold weight loss does get very slow, and if you eat less than 1200 calories you're also fucking your body over.

>>41672329
Ah, that's good progress actually, 30lbs over that time isn't that bad. If you wanted to make it much faster you'd want to do a lot of cardio to burn more calories, but really nothing unusual here.

>>41672340
Yea...you're right man. I hadn't even realized how much I had lost until I posted that.

I remember back in 2014 when I started getting into lifting I was 185lbs. I want to see if I can get down to that again, I know I'll look better at that weight than when I started. I just want to feel comfortable in clothes and not have to suck in my gut to not feel fat. It's something I can't remember experiencing.

>>41671180
I'm not sure if that's true or not. I think of it as a toilet paper roll effect. Like when toilet paper is unrolled, tiny layers are removed. This causes the loss to not be quite visible until a substantial percentage has been lost.

>>41672386
Yeah it's a lot harder to go from 225 to 193 than even going from 300-250 imo, I managed to do that pretty casually last year, but getting down to nearly 200 has been a real struggle, and I've been really focusing hard on my diet. Good progress man, I have no doubt you'll make it if you keep it up.

Thanks man. I needed that. I shouldn't have such a defeatist attitude. In fact, I think I'll go on a bikeride right now.

You'll get there too man. You've already lost almost a third of your original bodyweight. That's fantastic.

>>41671743
Yep. Good job, man.

>>41672438
I started even higher than that, around 310-20 I would guess, my scales broke and I had to lose some before it showed me at 300lbs. Started losing weight last summer so getting up to my one year anniversary soon. If I can make it I think anyone can, only thing that fucks up weight loss is medical issues.

>>41672099
haha, thanks for reminding me of this recipe idea. For some reason it reminds me of this bit and I always chuckle when I cut the veggies now : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vhOjmwlB2g

Starting a PSMF as of today to lose the last bit that I want to. Got all my research done and plan laid out.

That in mind and the /fat/ contest in mind, Mister B do you have any issues with that since we're matched up? If need be I can move my name to face against Pieman as I believe he's still fasting for the week.

Pieman, Mister B and BBC get back to me. If you all approve of it, it would change the bracket to...

Pieman vs. Apple

Mister B vs. BBC

You don't need all of that shit for fasting, lol. Salt does help will nausea and dizzyness, so it's fine if you mix it in your first water of the day. Unless you're going 7+ days, you just need water and salt.

Oh, and what I just described is WATER fasting. There are different types of fasting.
>Liquid fasting - any liquids, including juice, soup, stock, and milk; thin solids such as yogurt and peanut butter don't count.
>Zero calorie fasting - any zero calorie liquid, including coffee, tea, broth made from zero calorie bullion, and commercial drinks.
>Water fasting - WATER, including electrolyte water if 7+ days, and some salt if needed.

Fuckin denial m8 you're responsible for yourself can't let your parents be your mental crutch

when I have cravings I watch fast food reviews videos and just eat with my eyes and taste it in my mind, like actually recall the taste. then the craving leaves, and I feel disgusted to be watching a grown man binging in his car so I associate the fastfood with the cringe and shame and never actually go there. It works for me, I guess.

/fat/ contest update -

As a fallible human being, I made a mistake and missed a Friday weigh-in that impacted the bracket. I've since rectified it and that mean's the following -

Our 'last chance' bracketers have been updated. The lowest percentage person was removed to vacate the slot that was filled by the winner of their bracket. That means that our last chancers are goingnowhere and broteinfordays. Apologies for the confusion.

No other changes have occurred. But I also stated that I've switched to a PSMF.

Since Pieman is also fasting I've switched the bracket to reflect this. That means...

Duna vs. Mister B

Pieman vs. Apple

This change has been updated on the bracket and should square us away for the week. Hopefully this will be my last post until Friday.

Thanks y'all.

Willpower is a muscle. Seriously, new research shows that you can train it and make it stronger. But it's also limited. When you exhaust your willpower, you lose control.

Things that increase willpower:
>Mindfullness meditation
>Consciously and slowly performing an activity

Things that decrease willpower:
>Stress
>Making too many decisions in a day (this is why meal planning works, no decisions to make. The decisions are made once and days ahead of time.) This is called decision fatigue.
>Not exercising willpower causes it to atrophy

Willpower is really a mental skill like any other. You get better at it when you practice and you lose it when you don't. When you start you will have small amounts to use sparingly. So don't be harsh, just keep practicing and setting small goals each day to work towards.

Bullion isn't bone broth. Contains none of the collagen from cartilage or the calcium from the bones. That's the real benefit of bone broth, it has essential building blocks of healthy bodies.

Bone broth is not the same thing as normal broth/stock.

Bone broth has thousands of calories.

Last weekend I went on a bender, getting drunk and definitely ate over my maintenance.

The good news is I've maintained 1200-1500 cal per day since Monday. Doesn't seem to have stalled my progress much at all but I'm gonna stay clean and straight this weekend. Weighed it at 203 this morning.

>>41672751
This happens sometimes. You can plateau for weeks at the same weight and then have a multiple pound drop in weight in a single day. I've heard of 5 pound drops in a day after a plateau of two months. Most I've ever done is 2 pounds in one day. And it wasn't a fluke. I weighed even less the next day and the day after.

Are walnuts the best nut? I love them, I wish nuts weren't so highly caloric

>>41672940
That's great anon, you're doing a wonderful job. Everyone slips up but you just have to keep moving on afterward

>>41672960
Could be just inconsistent weigh in practices. I am >>41672940 and I am 209 on a scale right now because I have eaten breakfast and drank several cups of tea (sick/congested right now) as well as drank some water. Went up to 209 in a matter of 2 hours.

The way I handle my weigh in is to always do it in the morning after I shit and before I shower. I eat on an IF schedule (16 hours fasting after 6-8pm) with 2 meals a day so it should keep my bowel movements a little more consistent and thus limit the crazy fluctuations you can get. That shit can be discouraging if you aren't aware of how much of a difference weighing yourself has depending on time of day.

>>41670993
yo apple, GetSirius here, I already hit the first goal this week but you have my 1st goal as 230 and not 235

Guys, I need to lose 15 lbs by Monday, or else my doctor will surely tell me I've gained too much weight...

I personally think some of it, hopefully most, is muscle, but that doesn't show up on the scale...

>>41673004
Me too. Weigh in first thing in the morning after pissing, shitting if I have to and before eating. I don't want to measure water or food in my stomach/bowels/bladder. But even with that I have some drastic drops in weight when I'm deep into a strict diet. One time when I was really fat I lost 1.5 pounds every single day for 10 days. It was pretty freaky. But then I hit a plateau and didn't drop any weight for three weeks. Had same calories and exercise every day.

>>41672751
Don't weigh yourself so much. The only reason you should weigh daily is to get a weekly average.

Hey Apple, I was looking at the spreadsheet, and maybe you could add dates to the area where it says "Percentage Lost Winners" and "Pounds Lost Winners"? Like on the last one you would put 6/2/17. Just a thought.

>>41669575
Oh shit are you me? 1400cals a day, 5'9 started at 210 in Feb down to 177 as of today, losing around the same rate.
Don't listen to >>41670818, as long as you're increasing the weight on your lifts consistently, your muscles are gonna be fine, especially if you're a beginner.
Also if you're a beginner, 3 days a week fullbody is probably gonna get you better strength gains, and allow you to work in more cardio, but in the end its up to you, the best routine is the one you stick to.

>>41673051
Have to count everything you cook with. The oil sticks to the carrots. Although it's difficult to measure how much remains behind in the pan. You could get real anal and try to weigh that too but it would be tricky, especially because the carrots would weight less after cooking because some water would evaporate.

Most of you seem to eat the completely opposite what you should. It's like you are trying to gain weight and starve instead of lose weight and feel fully. Take 80% of daily calories from white rice, pasta and potatos you will be fine and your bloodwork will be fine withing weeks. Cut all dairy and fatty foods. Little meat is ok.

>>41673091

>Don't listen to >>41670818 (You), as long as you're increasing the weight on your lifts consistently, your muscles are gonna be fine, especially if you're a beginner.

Mister B here, no problem with me, this is more just to keep me honest on my progress than it actually is to compete.

>>41673183
Red is people who lost their match-up, Yellow is people who didn't update their weight on Friday. Gold is for 'last chance' tournament placers. Those that lost their match-up but had the highest percentage of weight loss got a second chance with empty slots.

Its more for my use than for any relevance.

>>41673067
>>41673097
That's what I thought. I already added to 120cals from the tablespoon to the recipe just wanted to make sure.

I've read a lot of people saying that the oil cooks out so you didn't need to count it. I knew it had to be a meme lol

Almonds are the best to me. They are pretty caloric, but I use them as a snack. Like, yesterday, I hadn't eaten breakfast and I was going to make some boiled eggs for lunch. While I was waiting for the eggs to cook, I had seven almonds (49 calories). It helped to fill me up a bit so I wouldn't be hungry after lunch.

>>41673208
He said he's losing weight at 1-1.5 pounds per week, indicative of a perfectly healthy deficit for his weight and body comp. If he's worried about losing lean body mass he should get some calipers and be testing it weekly just to make sure but I don't see any reason to be concerned.
The only point of concern is working out at twice the frequency as previously, but I wouldn't predict that would raise his energy expenditure above losing 2 pounds per week on average. If it does, then my advice to him would be to slow the cut down, but I assume he's smart enough to have that figured out already.

>>41673531
just keep in mind theyre high in calories like all the others.

There are few differences I see, but from what I can tell, almonds look like the better nut. I'll be looking for them in the grocery store to compare the taste and satiation factors with almonds.

>>41673575
It's really good to put an orange and some chicken in a salad together.

>>41673605
The only way I've eaten more is if the nutrition labels are wrong.

>>41673618
Are you using a scale? Measuring oil and butter? If you are try eating a surplus for a couple days then drop back down I heard that works

Spent the last two weeks perfect. 1500kcal a day, or under sometimes. Literally twenty minuets ago I walked into the kitchen and saw my family made one of those Costco take and bake pizzas. I only had one slice so it's probably fine since I didn't have much this morning, but I feel bad anyways. First time I've done something like that.

You're better off measuring your cooking oil by the gram. You don't need a whole tbsp to roast/saute most vegetables and you're just wasting oil.

>>41672751
Your weight fluctuates a lot throughout the day, depending on when and how much you poop/pee, how much and what you eat/drink, exercise and daily activity etc.

>>41673712
For sure not gonna do that. I got a bunch of different shit at the store today, so I'll have plenty of variety for a while. For the past few days is was just plain scrambled eggs in the morning with an apple and in the evening a salad with a little grilled chicken. I know that's definitely not enough for a day, but I'm towards the beginning of all this so I just want to lose some pounds fast.

The body lowers your BMR if you cut calories and eat less, which is why people stall and Yo-Yo rebounds are a thing.

CICO isn't true and you need to basically either move to eating Keto or do Fasting which helps keep your BMR high.

There's a ton of evidence of people eating 4000 calories a day on Low carb high fat diets and lost weight. How is that even possible?

The answer is insulin response. Eat no carbs if you want to lose weight, suffer and fall for the 60 year old meme about CICO which caused millions of people to become obese and lose their health thanks to it.

Intermittent fasting and Keto are the true key for sustainable and fast weight loss.

>>41673835
Can you go be retarded somewhere else?
I regularly eat 100-200 carbs a day and have lost 100lbs. Keto works but you still need to eat less.

>>41673814

I get most of my vegetables on non-carb days. Usually broccoli to compensate for the lack of pasta/lentils/etc, and mainly because I've read it actively drains the estrogen in your body.

>>41673688

Don't do Keto if you're just doing to 'cut'. Could potentially damage your metabolism if you keep switching to Keto and normal Carb intake in the long run.

>>41673799
He's kinda right. It's not as simple as CICO. It takes more energy to digest a calorie of protein than a calorie of sugar and even more energy to digest a calorie of fat. So someone on a low carb, high fat or high protein diet will burn more calories due to digestion than someone who eats the same calories of carbs. And even carbs aren't all the same. It takes more energy to digest whole raw food than cooked food of the same calories. Also takes more energy to digest high fiber than low fiber.

That's why high fat, high protein, raw food, high fiber, low carb are all recommended for weight loss

>>41674008
make mozzarella/ricotta spinach filling for cannelloni, or simply use it as a pesto base for pasta. Add basil, thyme, oregano, garlic and salt to taste.
