either gained four pounds (down to a pound and a half) this weekend from substantial eating and drinking of booze, however I don't think I had THAT much to eat since I was still watching what I was eating the whole time and only got blitzed one night. 100% out of ketosis but could it be more than waterweight? Could I be eating at enough of a deficit to slow my metabolism (1500-2000 cal.deficit) and thus actually gain when I exceed my TDEE?
>>
>>41864467
Yeah, I had some pastry the other day trying to be polite and it tasted bad. It was too sweet with the strawberry jam and the bread just tasted like nothing. I don't really feel like I'm missing much anymore.

Sometimes I get a taste for chocolate things, but if I eat too much it makes me sick.

Whenever I binge I end up weighing a bunch more. It's the carbs and salt causing you to hold water. To find your weight weigh yourself every day, first thing in the morning before eating or drinking anything and after your morning piss, then take the average for the week. Don't pay too much attention to the individual weigh ins.
>>
>>41864467
Something similar. I cut out a lot of dairy and whenever I have a bit of ice cream or some shit like that, my stomach and bowels punish me these days.

Back when I started, before the dieting and weight loss, I was fine with dairy. Now my body struggles to process it.

You won't. Regarding your metabolism, I'd recommend integrating some days where you skip breakfast at least to improve your insulin sensitivity, that way when you do have carbs your body will react to them better.

Insulin resistance is a reaction against excessive insulin, so basically you just want to spike your insulin levels less. That can be from having some fasted periods, reducing sugar consumption, avoiding simple carbs when you do eat carbs, having meals that are free from carbohydrates (protein also raises insulin, but not nearly as much). It's about getting your body used to switching from burning glucose over to burning from your fat stores. Reducing snacks can also help, eat meals that are big enough to get you to your next one. Increase the span between meals.

It doesn't have to be a black and white thing where you have to be in ketosis all the time, just watching your sugar intake helps. The easiest and most effective thing to do is some intermittent fasting.
>>
I know there are probably some /fat/ties who are pre-diabetic or diabetic. Like people discussed earlier, keto is a great way of stopping insulin spikes. Even with insulin pills/shots, having high blood sugar all the time destroys your body.

Treating insulin resistance with more insulin makes little sense to me. I'm sure doctors do this for a reason, but, it escapes me why they wouldn't just tell people to intermittent fast, do keto diet, or at least avoid sugar?

If diabetes is like a heroin addict who has tolerance, only instead of opiates it is too insulin, then raising the dose is the same as raising a heroin dose, right? Wouldn't it just make you more insulin resistant and make the cycle even worse? Then by being insulin resistant, you'd get fatter, which would then further promote the bad cycle?
>>
If you're cutting and not doing keto, you're wasting a lot of time. The fatter you are, the better it works. Come join us in the rejection of carbohydrates today! What are you waiting for?
>>
>>41864855
I don't know if insulin dosages make you more insulin resistant, since it has to do with fucked up pancreas. I think the goal is the stabilize your sugar levels for a while until they drop. Doctors always used to prescribe really carby foods like bread, rice, pasta, and not to do keto, but I think it's had an awful effect on the health of many diabetics. Basically you just up the dosage and keep eating a bunch of sugar that doesn't get absorbed, so it flows around your bloodstream, little tiny shards that tear up your nerves, eyes, and veins, slowly killing your from the inside. Most doctors now recommend keto, and some recommend fasting.

What keto is: a good way of lowering empty calories, making some people more energetic, introducing more dietary fat into your system, and treating diabetes

>>41864897
I guess what doesn't make sense to me is that if insulin resistance is diabetes, then adding more insulin I'd think would just make it worse. Again, not trying to play doctor and I'm way over my head, but, seems counter intuitive to me. It's like "well your body can't get an affect from insulin in normal doses anymore because you are too tolerant to it, so we're going to mega dose you!" Seems like that would work, until the body just builds up more resistance and then you have to increase the insulin dose to keep up. What a terrible cycle. Maybe it doesn't work like that?

Recommending keto and fasting does make sense. I have a coworker with diabetes I always want to bring that up to, but, it feels out of place/rude/invasive.

It's not that you're insulin tolerant really I think, it's that your pancreas get so overworked they shut down and stop producing insulin effectively. Don't quote me on that though.

Large specimens have more glycogen stored in their fatty livers and thus are more prone to fast water weight losses which will motivate them to continue a strict diet. Less blood glucose swings can fight off cravings also increasing motivation.

>I don't want her to feel like she wasted her money.

But she did. You should want her to feel like she did what she actually did. Which was waste her money. It's bad for both of you to try to adapt to her mistake in this sneaky, passive way (by eating the food).

Don't eat the food, and tell her that you aren't going to eat the food, and if she says you will burn it off then tell her you won't burn it off because you aren't even going to eat it. If you think you'll feel badly about this then do it nicely and use "I statements" and be gentle and stuff. If you do it and still feel badly then just accept that you feel badly.

If you can't handle any of the above, then try instead the ultimate passive solution, the one that (unlike your solution of eating the food) actually works: murder-suicide. (This is an active solution, in a sense, but it's passive in the important sense: It does not require you to open your mouth and say how you are feeling, which of course is much harder for us adult babyboys than choking somebody to death in the middle of the night.)

Type 2 beetus here.

Is there any proof that ketosis can put T2 into remission?

My doctor seems reluctant to believe that i can get off the medications he's put me on. I've lost about 11kg since my diagnosis 3 months ago.

I was interested in trying an 800 Cal diet which is also supposed to lead to quick remission, but he cautioned very strongly against it and suggested 1200cal instead.

It's pretty simple. Losing weight helps with diabetes, keto helps a lot of people lose weight. Eating less sugar makes you spike less. A lot of people can significantly reduce their insulin dosage, and a few (after losing a significant amount of weight excercising, and eating healthy) go without insulin completely. Good luck anon. Excercise is also good, it lowers youd blood sugar.

Dude, I was diagnosed with Type 2 two years ago when I was rushed to the emergency room due to acidic ketoacidosis. Almost died.

You don't necessarily need ketosis. Dieting and exercise will do the trick for you. It's been a year, and my blood sugar has been blood stable around the clock. As long as I keep up this lifestyle, which I've adapted into comfortably, I can safely say that I've defeated type 2.

Just wanted to let you know, that even with ketosis, losing weight and being healthier will do the trick. Good luck anon, it's fully possible! Don't listen to the doctor kikes, they want you on insulin and metformin, and they want you coming back. But you can cure it on your own.
>>
>>41865449
Doctors teach you stuff they learned back in med school in the 80s. People don't adapt with new information really. Diabetic treatment is getting better but a lot of people are still stuck doing the same thing they've been doing their whole career. Surprised they don't drink diabetic pee still to check for sugar.

Nope. He's a very typical, set in his way man. Was raised and still is to this day a devout JW; there's a real "this is the way things are" sort of mentality to him. I'm really worried because he's gaining weight too and had a stroke like 3-4yrs back I don't wanna lose him before I'm 30 but it's a likely possibility.

Just three more hours then I can eat my daily 8:20 pm meal. I'm practically bedridden so I only eat one big 1000-1500 cal meal a day. Gonna get 15 strips of bacon, 4 eggs, and some veggies.

Thank them, make a really big deal like "holy shit this is amazing! I love it etc" have a small sliver to taste. And then say you'll take it home and have it for desert after dinner as that's your "sweet food time" while you watch [generic tv series that's popular]. Take home, bin it, you've just gotten yourself 2-3 weeks of "free time" while you can say "oh jeez, I still have the last one!"

This. Stop eating food altogether, just drink water, eat cake, and take supplements from Taiwan or Brazil. Steal the sups for max frugality.

Same BMI here, my mom told me I'm too thin too. Luckily, she doesn't hinder my progress by bringing home fast food or anything, she often asks if I want something to eat, but I just decline.

I posted this in a QTDDTOT a few minutes ago but

currently weigh 196 lbs 5'4 tall (used to weigh 320)

My Fitness Pal says I should be eating 1500 calories at sedentary

But on the TDEE calculator I put in my stats and it says my sedentary calorie limit should be 2145
>>
>>41865571

"I'm sorry but my doctor told me I should stay away from sweets."

Give them a medical related reason. They won't fight back bc they don't want to seem insensitive to something so serious.
>>
>>41865659

think mfp is your tdee minus the calories that would get your calculated weight loss
>>
>>41865640
Pic of what man?
>>41865649
Oh shit son! You may be onto something!
>>41865659
Are you a boy or a girl?

I'm assuming you're a guy, and yes that seems right for a TDEE. MFP automatically takes in your goal of "lose 1lb/week" which means it'd bring it down to 1500cals, where as the TDEE calculator is just your straight TDEE. Make sense?
>>
>>41865649
not >>41865633
but what kind of taiwan sups are you talking about... curious since i live in taiwan..
>>
>>41865695

Where in Taiwan?
>>
>>41865695
Fish oil and magnesium, cialis, caffeine powder mixed with B12 all the good stuff. Gotta get your daily 40 grams of sodium too.
>>
>>41865668
>>41865688
yes i'm a guy, 20 years old

so basically MFP is right? I should be cutting at 1500 to lose weight? (that's the setting with goal to lose 2 lb.'s a week)
>>
>>41865742
Run at 1500 for a month, but don't sweat it too much if you go above it by 100-200 a day; 2lbs/week is at the high end of weight loss. Especially with that BMI you may find the sudden drop in calories giving you some mad cravings. Aim for anywhere between 1500-1750, obviously the closer to 1500 the better. Remember it's not a race, but a change in lifestyle. You've got this man, I'm rooting for you!
>>
>>41865742
At a 500 cal deficit every day you lose 0.5 kg, at 1000 cal you lose 1 kg, at 1500 you lose 1.5 kg. That's fine if you're e x t r a t h i c c.
>>
>>41865767
I forgot to mention that by "a month" I mean be a little bit lenient on yourself during this transition phase. After you've gotten into the groove and you've seen the first 5-8lbs lost, you should be in a mindset and routine to strictly hit 1500cals.

You've got this man, and remember we're here for support!
>>
>>41865773
You lose that a week, I mean, You can't lose that much in a day.
>>
>>41865767
>>41865773
thank you anon's, after looking at TDEE carefully it says my cutting calories should be 1672 which sounds right from what you guys are telling me

do you have any pictures from when you were that weight?

I ate more food in the last 4 days than in the last 3 weeks combined. I have now given up hope on conventional dieting and I am ready to repent and accept the teachings of Father Fung into my life, starting tomorrow I will be fasting untill I am lean. I walk now looking like I am pregnant and I am more bloated than an alcoholic with chirossis or whatever its called.
>>
>>41865815
That sounds about right man; if you've made it this far you know what you gotta do. Remember to keep adjusting your TDEE as you come down in weight.
And don't be upset if you're like this anon >>41865846 and you find you have to keep going. My original goal was 80kg, but being only a few kilos away I realise I will probably need to hit 75-77kg to really be at where I want. It's all a journey, don't fret about the destination.
>>41865840
Vitamin D is also extremely helpful; apparently a lot of people are deficient in it. I work nights so I know for sure I don't get enough natural sunlight.
>>
>>41865566

with huge amounts of fat, your surface area is larger, which means your volume doesn't change as much when you reduce your fat.
as you lose weight your bods surface area gets smaller, making it's volume over all smaller, which makes it way more noticeable to lose weight.
meaning losing 20lbs as a 500lbs tub of shit will look less impressive than losing 10lbs at 180
If you're using a calculator and a measuring tape it's probably just not very accurate.

Might as well ask here, but what is the 'better' exercise between squats and seated leg press.

Squats. Always squats. Learn to squat properly and it doesn't impact on the knees as much. Otherwise, start at a lower weight to condition your knee joints or use knee straps. Squats are so much better for several reasons; posture, core, glutes, depth, power, stabilisers, etc etc
>>
>>41866303
If squatting hurts your knees and you don't have a previous knee injury diagnosed by a doctor, it's hurting your knees because you're squatting wrong.

same here except was overweight and for some reason locals think im philipino which is like being mexican in burgerland. i lost the weight so now im mostly just ignored, but the fact that im lifting and have some gainz makes it harder to convince the grils that im not philipino but rather hispanic. so im learning 2 chinese since i have another year to go here.

>>41865159
I had Type 2 until just over a year ago, dropped 60 odd lbs and officially in remission doing a low carb diet with pretty much no sugar whenever possible - not quite keto but it did the job. Took only a year as well.

I should also mention I exercised and took supplements to help like vit d, omega 3, zinc, vit k2 and magnesium.
>>
>>41866391

Nice. I regret not getting a local tutor while I was there but all the hiking I did through Taipei, Kaohsiung and Keelung made up for it since I got to shed some weight while eating a bunch of Chinese and japanese food.

Those are quite normal to supplement with and are good etc..

the thing with omega 3s there are many sources of omega 3, do you just use fish oils or something like cod or kirll oil?
>>
>>41866486
It depends on the body fat % but with 150+lb at 5ft 9 it isn't too bad but you're probably pretty soft and have some fat stored up, I''d focus on lifting, and eating a little better without focusing on becoming full on cardio bunny, just lift and you;re good..

Honey Sriracha Turkey Meatballs(A shit ton of spinach in these but thats optional)
Roasted Sweet Potato and Red Onion

Chicken Burrito Bowls
(Baked Chicken Thigh/No Skins, Small amount homemade spanish rice, shitton of black beans, avocado, roasted veggies, + lime)

>>41866568

Ho damn she's a cutie, if that what you want anon more power to you. But at least incorporate a calisthenics routine if not weights; having a good base for strength will really make you "pop" in the sexieness category at that sort of frame

That's like...a good chunk of men everywhere. Also, I'll give you props for not being those "6"+ only men" sort of girls.

Just go for an average look, keep a decent 18-22% bf, cardio and calisthenics. From there, you'll attract 99% of guys. AFTER you met yourself the bf you want, and you know it's something you both want, then you can discuss with him what sort of body he finds most attractive, and work together to adjust your goals. But remember this is so fucking true it's not even funny >>41866721

I'm not a he, and what I mean is men are less picky than women and, just like women, different guys find different aesthetics attractive. Some like thicc, some like medium, some like sticc, some like downright fat.

Partially. Anyone overweight in my family has it, but I don't because I eat well. It's literally insulin resistance as someone said earlier, so, don't spike your insulin a lot and it won't be a problem.

kek, a christian that doesn't understand the power of fasting as a way to absolve and stray from "sin"...what has this world come to? fasting is an essential founding ritual of the abrahamic religions.
>admit [...] you will binge in 2 days
what is this the spanish inquisition? you're no better than the "christians" (aka the catholic church) who lives on the confessions of others, if you already have lost "faith" in people before they even try.
Good luck with your "religion" pal.
Oh ye of little faith

I can't stop obsessively checking my weight multiple times a day, I'm so scared of gaining weight back I'm giving myself a complex
>>
>>41864924
Hi anon, I was in this exact situation, and I loved and appreciated my mom so much, I knew she was making an effort to bring me home something to eat, and I would feel awful for not eating it.

So I sat down with her, thanked her, told her fast food was bad for me, and asked her if she could bring something healthier. When she said "you'll burn it off at the gym", I carefully explained to her how it doesn't work that way, and she understood.

Actually she started helping with my fat loss, and eating healthier herself. Don't be afraid to talk to your family is what I'm saying.

Yeah. 15 strips of bacon=740 cal, 4 eggs=400 cal to 600 cal or so, plus veggies.

Yup. I was actually looking at where I'll be in a year, and it's crazy to think I could lose 100 lbs between now and then.
>>
>>41866084
I don't know if i should eat more or less. Being 2000 below tdee has fucked my metabolism and water weight when I don't sustain it.
Should I aim for 1000 or more calories a day instead of 300-600?
>>
>>41867124
You shouldn't go under 1000 ideally. Slow and steady wins the race.
>>
>>41867124
Depends on your height and current weight. But generally speaking there is no reason to eat less than 1200 calories a day.
>>
>>41867139
But i feel like a fatty ding dong when I eat more, especially since it's been all low carb veggies and meat. Even avocados don't seem worth the calories anymore.

Hey guys, 212lb here, down from around 250. Can't see a difference at all in my body, still got lots of belly fat. Everyone is noticing how much weight I've lost and I've lost 6 inches off my waist, none of my clothes fit, but clothes off I still look fat. Is this normal? I'm gonna cut another 20lb at least and hope that it's starts visibly coming off my belly then, my brother is 40lb lighter than me l, 4 inches shorter and he looks ripped as fuck so I'm hoping I'll start getting that sort of change. Have to make it eventually haha

You need to be eating more man. 1500 should be fine.

You and me both need to lift more and lose more.

I've been trying to add fat to my diet, but, feels like I'm just adding calories. I avoided the majority of the rice though. Just ate the chicken and cheese, maybe a bit of the rice that was stuck to the chicken/cheese.
>>
>>41866567
calorie control + lifting
>>
>>41866684
I did 16:8 when dieting and it helped a lot, mostly because during my eating window I could have a decent sized lunch, be full enough to hold me until dinner, and then have a dinner that would fill me up until bed, without snacks or going over my calorie limit. Now maintaining I do more 14:10 I guess. I just don't eat breakfast and then just eat whenever lunch lands without much concern.

Just to raise this because I hate misinformation and I believe people need to be educated on the differences. Type 2 diabetes may be insulin resistance but in Type 1 our pancreas is not overworked, we just lost the genetic lottery as it is an autoimmune disease. No prevention.

That's not to say that insulin resistance isn't an issue for Type 1s, but I've found RDA limits for carbohydrates haven't lead to insulin spikes seeing as I am a manual pancreas - weighing all carbs and protein, considering my activity for the day and calculating my insulin dose accordingly.

The biggest cause of blood sugar spikes for me is weightlifting and caffeine, nothing carb related. People never realise the trivialities of Type 1.

Kek I did the opposite. I studied in the US and did engineering work in Taiwan. I was living like a king with work provided accomodations and an American engineer salary. At least Taiwan has lots of natural beauty and a great transportation system so it's cheap to explore. Go out to Yehliu Geopark this summer if you haven't been it's awesome.

This is really interesting. I love to find out what triggered people's T1. I met a guy who had a particularly bad beating session from his father that triggered his Type 1. I know a lady who fell over in the playground and started getting her symptoms after that. Myself, I got a really bad cold / sinus infection and developed Type 1 straight after. The same thing happens in people with other autoimmune diseases. They remain dormant in you until a particular stressor triggers it.

Leave your father to work out his own management. The idea of ketosis scares me, I don't understand how it would work as a type 1. My bloods drop massively after long periods of activity but if I tried to stabilise myself I would need to break ketosis. It can be stressful enough on the current rollercoaster ride.

It is, 1500 calories can keep you well fed but it depends on the food you're actually eating


Good food = harder to cheat
Easy calories from carbs, fats = easier to go over 2k a day, try adding in grain/bread into the mix and your diet is fucked

Yea, he fell out of a tree when he was like 12/13 and broke his arms and leg. Pancreas went into shock and he had to be rushed to hospital before they realised what had happened. That was back in the day before insulin was synthesised.

It's not so much I want him to do keto or anything drastic, just to be open to new ideas and potential advancements in science that can save him. Idk, I guess pinning has because such a part of his routine, and he is nothing if not routine. He won't even attempt to lose weight or lift with me, and it's just depressing to see a man you respect and think of as your hero fade away into nothing. Idk, maybe I'm a faggot but my dad was always my role model and it just hurts that inner child in me to see him like this.

went a few months back and it was indeed nice. so far i liked the trail that takes you from taipei county to yilan county through the mountains the most. dont remember the name but it was about 15km of mountain trail. second fave was taroko national park. reminds me a lot of back home when i go out so its nice for me. dont think im going to stay here though since pay is shit for IT. they only pay matterial science and IC well from what ive seen.
>>
>>41867589
Cool. I missed Taroko last time I went but it's on my bucket list. I also missed Mt. Qixing in Yangmingshan but only because it started pouring when I took the bus to the top and it was way too dangerous to get on the trail.

Yeah even skilled labor is cheaper out there, that's why my company offshores a lot of engineering work there. I was told that as an entry level engineer in the US I probably made more than my Taiwanese boss.

>>
>>41867573
Does he weigh his food and carb adjust?

I think the best thing I did for my control was to start weighing everything I ate because I then knew exactly how much to inject. I'll still get it wrong sometimes because we have lots of situational factors as well like temperature and amount of fat in the meal etc.

The most important factor for me was introducing exercise. I was scared about doing it since the type of exercise and duration can massively vary on how it affects my bloods but the improvement in my insulin sensitivity has been amazing and I have reduced my basal insulin intake by exercise alone - my bolus is the same ratio but I reduce it if I am going to do cardio or increase it for weights.

Chronic illness and depression/anxiety go hand in hand and its very easy to feel overwhelmed by it. Its very common for T1s to refuse help, it sucks having people try to suggest that you check your bloods or if you need to eat something. We don't like people nagging us but I would hope he can see that you're doing it out of love. The amount of times I've ragged on my mum for bringing shit up but I know she's right and I'm doing much better now.

Does he have a good diabetic specialist for appointments? I'm assuming you're in the states so care is going to be very different from where I am. I find that having a hard ass specialist who is blunt and brutally honest with me does wonders. My latest one thinks I have a chance of getting a pump on the NHS.
>>
>>41867704
Thanks.

>>41867709
Not sure. I originally figured it would just be going back in and nothing would be counted. But upon further reflection, it would be re-digested and there is energy stored in it that otherwise would have left the system.

>>41867731
>just weight it and calculate its calories with mfp
Okay, I'll tell him to do that.

So I took my library occupational exam this morning. Nailed the Dewey, computer and novels sections but the most important part (shelving skills) is what I'm the least confident about. Every question seemed tricky. And there are too many rules. But maybe I just feel that way because it took the most time, naturally.

The one thing that frustrates me about losing weight is that it takes so long, i have been counting calories for 5 months now, and i will need at least 7 more months to no longer be obese. And after that another 5 or so to get to a normal bmi.

you will fail eventually, counting calories is a dead end. simply switch your diet and you will be fine, no need for counting calories, feel of hunger or anything ridiculous like that. 80% of calorise from rice, potatos, corn or pasta. cut the fat, all dairy especially and you're done
