I'm eating at 500-700 deficit and walk 10 km a day, is it possible to lose at least a bit with this?

Went low carb lads, nothing I want more now than to murder a pizza

tonight its chicken thighs

>>42046957
yes

>>42046957
no

>>42046957
maybe

>>42046957
Well, 500-700 deficit off 12k isn't much better.

>>42046957
Could you repeat the question?

When do I actually start to feel like I've lost weight! Scale goes down every week but my body looks the fucking same clothes still fit the fucking same and I can't tell if the scale is just wrong now.

>>42046957
You're not the boss of me now

So when do you start feeling, well, less fat?
I've lost about 10kg but I feel I look like the same as ever. I've been told I look a bit thinner, but I really don't feel it, and it was Mom, so it doesn't count, right?

>>42047118
lel I hadn't seen your post.

>>42047118
>>42047146

For me it was when I climbed a flight of stairs I hadn't climbed in like a year.

Would usually feel winded by the time I got to the top, but that time I didn't feel anything. It was kind of surreal.

>qt from work notices your weight loss

It's time for me to accept that my weight loss isn't slow or gradual, but non existent. At least I figured out what it's like to eat at maintainance.

I'm going to stick to 1500 kcal per day now.

Eat up to 1500 kcal and walk 10km.

By deficit it could mean I spend 600 kcal in cardios but I end up eating 2100kcal, So you'd be better off doing 1500 kcal day, and sometimes 1800.

>>42047332
I ate half of pastry yesterday. I even had troubles just eating half and was starting to feel full when I took the last bite. What have you done to me, /fat/?
I think I'll take a small bite today just for the taste and throw the rest into the trash.

Ate too much sodium today

Is it okay to eat at maintenance on workout day, while on other days i keep a deficit?

>>42030476

>>42047118
Same. I'm down 30 pounds and feel fatter than ever. I took a before picture though and when I compare my pics now to that I can definitely see the difference.

>>42047942
Bunch of teens who think that losing weight is a fast process.

>>42047332
Usually have cheese stick and apple for snack at work. This time though I bought a 170 cal bag of pretzels and a 320 cal bag of trail mix. I'm still under my calories but just barely.

>>42047509
Chicken and veggie stir fry. 1 chicken breast cut small. Saute. Add in about a cup or more of frozen mixed veggies. Use plenty of oil. (Make sure you track the oil though because the food absorbs some of it.)

This meal costs like $1.

>>42047825
Consume fewer calories.

>>42047942
>we need to bully people on 4chan
What a newfag. I've been on 4chan since 2005 and I guarantee you nothing he could ever say could phase me, or anybody else, to the point of leaving the board to protect my feefees

>>42047848
Welcome to how normal people eat. You put food in until you're hungry and throw the rest away. Go full Stacey mode, take a couple sips out of a small Starbucks frappe and toss the rest.

>>42047918
>Huh, where did those 2lbs come from?

I'm sorry for your loss.

>>42047928
How fast do you want to get thin?

>>42047509
Buy 5 small containers for easy transport to school work. Fill them. You can do it with whatever you want but some mix of protein, legumes, vegetables and rice. My current mix:

>1 chicken breast, diced
>Roasted broccoli
>Red kidney beans
>Rice medley (brown, red and wild rice mix)
>Soy sauce or coconut aminos for flavouring

Fill your containers. Throw them in the fridge or freezer. Microwave and eat. Track your calories and fit the fillings to your macros

>>42047928
The advice I've always received is to not "eat back" the calories you burn during exercise. It's really hard to know how much you're truly burning so it's very easy to over-estimate your calorie allowance and end up gaining instead of maintaining.

It feels good to think of exercise as bonus gains instead of putting yourself through the strain and ending up the same as you would have if you ate your normal deficit and sat on your ass

>>42048024
>microwaving stuff
Isnt that bad?

>>42048046
The only arguments against microwaving are hippy muh radiation bullshit

>>42048046
Eating more calories than you need is bad

>slap that shit it into mfp

Can't say i haven't thought about purging

>>42048046
No. In fact, microwaving vegetables is the best way to cook them. Also, don't trust a chef without a microwave in the kitchen. It has MANY uses beyond reheating day old macaroni.

>>42048024
why would it be bad?

>>42048077
Sodium won't kill your gains, just delay them

Learn and move on. Purging is unhealthy behaviour

>>42048005
No way I'm spending that much for their shit coffee, and just a few sips at that.

I don't even like most of the worst shit, mostly it was I had gotten lazy, ate too much at meals (mostly healthy-ish but fucked up quantities) and had started snacking to compensate boredom.

Trying to not to lose muscle, everyone says lifting and fuck loads of muscle, pretty hard going trying to get like 150 grams of protein into 1500 calories. Doesn't leave much room for anything else

>>42048115
dude chicken breast ahaha protein shake lmao xD

>>42048018
I'm already down from 150kg to 84 my goal is 75, so time is no problem for me, i just want to avoid those urges to binge after working out, so i thought maintenance might work atleast on those days

>>42048115
Muscle loss during cuts is a meme unless you have both a lot of muscle and fat. If you're a regular overweight or skinnyfat guy, you probably don't have any significant muscle mass to begin with. You can cut 50-60% of your tdee and not lose any muscle mass depending on your body fat percentage. If you're at 20-25%+ bf, almost all of your weight loss will be fat.
Worry about muscle during and after a bulk.

>>42048121
Aye exactly I guess this is my life now haha, everything I eat has to be high fucking protein

>>42048141
wow congrats dude that's an amazing loss

What factors causes loose skin? How much you'd have to lose to develop it?

>>42048153
Ok thanks, I'll try and keep protein up anyway but not worry too much about it, I'm 5 11, 208lbs down from around 250. Have lifted before and been making good progress all throughout my cut so just want to avoid hitting skinnyfat and at least have a decent base of muscle to bulk from once I hit a low body fat percentage.

>>42048168
stretch marks, generally
if new skin has grown to accomodate the fat, then it's gonna sag when the fat in gone

>>42047332

I had a McFlurry Salted Caramel yesterday.

It was really good though.

>>42048158
Thanks

>>42048153

What would you consider a "lot of muscle"?

>>42048046
It makes the food feel worse. Heating is uneven and everything is soggy.
It's fine. You're not eating a chef meal. You're eating to lose weight. If you don't have the willpower to cook everyday, it's absolutely fine. Losing weight should be your focus.

>>42048196
I have a lot of stretch marks on biceps but they dont look that bad

>>42047319
buy one as a sample. Try it. Figure it out yourself.
Myprotein is a renowed quality product site, the composition will be good by health standards; the taste might not suit you.

>>42048218
Significantly more than your average skinnyfat or overweight numale.

>>42048199
I don't even have those anymore.
Local McD used to do them with pieces of local biscuits in, and with melted white chocolate. They stopped both options. What's even the point anymore?

swear Im going to eat something from the market at the weekend so fucking hungry.

>>42048218
Unless you have been lifting for a significant amount of time before deciding to lose weight you almost certainly don't have a 'lot of muscle'.

I'm a bit above an overweight numale, but I probably shouldn't be worried?

>>42048237

The only time I go to McDonalds is to try seasonal stuff. The McDonalds in my country almost never has any good stuff though.

>>42048271

I used to be lifting before, but it has been very much on and off since then. I don't even do a 2plaete bench or 3plaete squat, so I shouldn't really think about it too much.

>>42048115
I get my 90 grams of protein from around 900 calories, I think the most I got was 107g protein out of it. Still could do much more if I only stuffed myself with meat/egg/milk/cottage cheese (which is basically what I do, save for adding a bit of fruit to my cottage cheese, and veggies to my meats). If you need carbs with protein, try whole wheat pasta - if you really need to- and beans.

>>42048292
I just make it my cheat meal once in a while, I guess. Reasonably, still.
I don't know how some of you guys manage to eat 2000, 3000 or 4000 calories in one sitting.

>>42048292
calculate your lean body mass from your bf%.

You probably don't have to worry, but it's better safe than sorry. No real reason not to eat enough protein.

>>42048318
The meal simply doesn't stop when you are full. And fat people have a much higher mental barrier for full.

I still know I could finish a 15" pizza with ease in one sitting but my days of doing that are done with.

>>42048318

I could probably pound down 2k calories in a sitting, but I've never been much for soda, so I would probably have a harder time.

>carbs
>lose muscle

I blame the ketofags for this. You lose muscle if your caloric deficit is too high. Carbs if anything will help maintain muscle seeing as they are the things that assemble the amino acids into muscle.

>>42048591
How come you lose less muscle on keto than a diet with carbs included then eating the same amount of calories?

>>42048636
There is no scientific evidence of that.

Are complete proteins a myth?
E.g: beans must be eaten with rice, corn or grain to form a complete protein, otherwise it's useless to eat

>>42048683

That's a muscle building issue, not a losing fat one.

Imagine fat as a square of toilet paper on a roll. The first squares you take off does very little to make the roll smaller but as you go down it gets more noticeable. Fat loss is the same. You will notice very little difference at first but once you grt down low enough the changes are dramatic.

So I went from 220 lbs to 180 lbs @ 6'2
I started lifting, but still no muscle to be found anywhere, still around ~15% bodyfat.
Should I just keep on cutting with 1500 kcals/day? Or just eat maintenance and lift more?

>>42049558
You could consider a short bulk I think but I can't say without seeing pics

I completed my first non-machine routine today (had one a few days ago with a trainer to show me how to do it) - complete babby weights, bright fucking coloured plates, 5kg for clean and press and 10kg for rows. I noticed I was being watched by some of the people in the proper weights section, has anyone else had that? It felt pretty bad for a second but everyone's got to start somewhere.

>>42049639
Can't speak from exactly the same experience but when I started jogging I got looks. Just ignore them, and defy their expectations.

Speaking of swimming, I joined a gym recently. The staff member showing me around suggested I try walking in the pool.

I thought it was just something for the elderly? Why would you do it instead of just swimming?

>>42049089

Be strong fellow fatty

220 pounds at 6'2" here, not that high BMI but I still feel severely fat all the time. Just snacked on 2 different high sodium vending machine treats in the same 6 hour period. I'm not gonna make it bros. ;_;

i have been in a heavy deficit for a while, so i had to work around reduced work capacity/fatigue/time. i broke my workouts from essentially SS+accessories to an upper lower, and really trying to emphasize smaller muscles and posture training. i didn't expect to gain a whole lot of muscle, but i knew i could even out some of the weaker muscles in the chain to make things better and safer.
lots of ab work, focus on your weak points, and do yer cardio. fasted, preferably.
>hunger suppressants
water, brotein shakes, gum, and more dietary protein than needed (i shoot for 150-160g a day)
>motivation
desu /fat/ was the biggest aid. the competition and weekly weigh ins helped push me a lot. also, don't be afraid to use a bit of caffeine if you're really dragging your ass.
stay honest, and stay active. if you overeat one day, do your best to brush it off and not let it happen again. shit happens, but one mistake leading to forfeit is a huge risk factor when losing a lot of weight. find a type of cardio you like the best, and do it. find a routine that will keep you in the gym, and follow it. find a bunch of meals you can fit into your needs, and track every piece of food you eat.
you can definitely do it, all it will take is a bit of consistent effort and honesty

Even if i manage to drop all the weight( 1/3 of the way there) i'm still autistic and incapbale of making real friends. I used to have "friends" but i can't stay friends with someone longterm as they always annoy me and i rather am alone instead of hanging out with them. Don't even get me started about girls, i think i'm hopeless in that department, once i hit normal weight i probably just start fucking a prostitute.

Why? It's basically a 0-calorie super sugar.

>>42049936
trying to gain more confidence to start having a social life is not the only reason i'm trying to lose weight. And the prostitute is more like a reward for dropping the weight.

>>42049955
I'm pretty much the same way. Use this to start eating healthy for fuel instead of eating crap for enjoyment.

>>42049987
the thought of removing the only thing that brings me any enjoyment is pretty daunting

>>42049960
I use cinnamon on some stuff but I don't put it on everything all of the timeItit gets a bit boring.

I've started following strictly the sticky 3 weeks ago, so far I've lost 4kg (I'm 177cm x 91kg).
Of course I can't see this loss in the mirror, so here's my question: what should I expect, if I kept losing this much weight during time? Are there any progress picture that could show me some sort of progress that looks reasonable, given a young body and lots of dedication?

>>42049955
What is portion control for 200 Alex.

>>42046905
I got below 80kgs for the first time in like 3 years. Pretty happy

>>42049998
Think of the satisfaction you'll have when you know you have control over what you put in your body. Maybe you will get enjoyment from that, I know I do. Also, I don't know if you're overweight, but this is /fat/, so maybe you will enjoy being fit or less fat (which will come from eating healthy).

>>42050665
Of course it does, and that's an awful excuse.

What you eat matters. Staying under your calories is a good thing, but you are still eating garbage. If you really want to make it "this ice cream is less bad for me so it's fine" has to go. Eat it infrequently, in moderation, as part of a good diet.

I can't wait to make it guys. Just got turned down by a girl that actually likes me, she just "could never be physically attracted to me". It depresses me, but adds more fuel to the fire. Been doing great at staying under my calories. I'm down 70lbs with 100 more to go. I'm only a pound away from my all time low (which I should easily reach when I weigh in tomorrow). Starting tomorrow I'm also going to start working out hard core and watching my sodium better. This bitch turning me down has been that last bit of motivation I needed to go all out. Was planning to go to the bar and get trashed on sunday as my reward for putting in ten 16 hour days in a row in at work. Was also gonna go for chinese with a friend (it's been my monthly cheat meal/social outting) but I'm done with that too. Straight clean eating and days full of physical activity are all that lie ahead for me. By this time next year, I'm going to be the man I want to be both physically and mentally. You guys give me so much motivation as well. I'm so glad I found you all, and I love you all. We're all gonna make it.

Woke up about 6pm (depression life), had a chicken + ham wrap, and made this at 11pm, not planning to eat anything else.

Is this too large a portion? Pringles can for perspective.

how do I stop the temptation to eat on my days off?
when I'm at work I'm too busy working to actually eat, not to mention I can't actually eat on the job

when I'm at home on my days off, the pantry is a step away and it's really tempting

don't call it quits dude, if you give up for one day you'll find it easier to quit another day, and then another and another, eventually you'll be back to your old habits. You're strong enough to resist dude, don't let a bad day stand in the way of becoming a better person.

Portion size is relative. You should be tracking the calorie content. None of us have any idea what you've put in that so we would be guessing.

Do the work yourself if you want to see results

>>42050958
go ahead dude, just this once it'll be fine. You'll feel much better and motivated to keep going after you let yourself go just this once.

it's pretty healthy, I think it's only like 400-500 cals per 'serving' but it's a pretty large serving. I'm asking because I need to get into portion control

because you can keep doing it for longer, since you're a fatass.

Im slowing down on weight loss. At first i was upset but then i realize that even if I were at my goal weight id still be a khv so at least while im fat i can claim my weight is whats preventing me from getting a gf.

Yea this is getting too hard to handle right now
I'm going to grab another bite to eat but will cut it off early today

I do IF and I have a few more hours to eat, however, I'm going to grab something right now and if I do get hungry in another 4-5 hours might just grab some water and apple cider vingegar for the night'

Same. I have a few friends though, but I feel completely detached and ignored whenever I talk to them. It's just not the same as it was in high school.. and I feel you on the girls part. I'm in the same situation too. Landing a 5/10 seems like a dream to me at this point.. I'm such a moron when it comes to socializing even for small talk. But you'll find that none of that shit matters in the end. All that mattters is you keep progressing and you build yourself up to be the best person you can be, and then the girls will come effortlessly. Then it's way easier to make friends. believe me

Because this is /fat/ and if your TDEE is 1700 then you should be eating under that. That and you should be exercising which also adds up.

How do you guys exercise without going outside? I live in a place where it's getting to the 100 degrees (38+ Celsius) and it's awful to try and go out for a walk/jog. I'm too poor to afford gym passes or gym equipment, but I want to lose 50lbs as soon as I can.

What do I do? :<

I just don't exercise. This shit isn't even 90/10 diet/exercise, it might as well be 100% diet.

If you are worried, go with the lowest one. If your TDEE is higher, you just are even further below it.

>>42051577
Of course your body will change based on what you do, but we don't know what you are doing to begin with. Exercising is obviously better then not and you said you already were anyway.

I'm trying to do Insanity because I was able to lose about 20lbs (not much, but quickest I was able to do), but because of my housing, doing Insanity (with all of it's jumping) is impossible.

So, I was trying to find a new workout routine that can give m e that same amount of exercise but without all the jumping until the days become bearable.

Went from 300 down to 185 over 6 months to join the Army and got back to over 300 about two years after getting out...No excuses(Muh setpoint!), I just didn't care.
Down 25 now...why the fuck did I let myself go like that?

>>42051691
There's a reason for that. Fasting is a bad idea, and totally unnecessary.

>>42051715
Why's that? My starting weight was 300 lbs last summer and I'm just sick and tired of being a cow. I want to be free

>>42051691
You're depriving yourself of necessary nutrients and could end up in the hospital or dead, especially if you weren't eating enough potassium before this. Stop.

>>42051731
You'll be free if you put the work in. There is no quick fix, and anyone who goes on an unsustainable crash diet is more likely to fail, because they don't understand how to take care of themselves.

If you want to lose the weight and keep it off (which is far harder than losing it because it's forever) find out your TDEE and subtract 500 calories and adjust at you lose weight. Start exercising regularly, even walking is very good exercise of you do it consistently (aim for 10k steps every day, or more).

Learn healthy food macros, dividing carbs protein and fat. Learn how to eat healthy, so that you know how to BE healthy when you lose the weight. That's how you keep it off. That's how you win.

How accurate is the Body Fat Percentage calculator in the OP? According to my measurements I'm 6'1 215 pounds and only 24% BMI, that puts me at normal instead of nearly obese that most BMI calculators tell me when I just enter my height and weight. I definitely look like a fat slob, I don't get it.

>>42051709
Did you have any loose skin when you joined? Thinking about joining myself (not the army though) after about 40 more pounds.

>>42051963
I didn't do any exercise on my way down so I was still in the high 20s for bodyfat and had a pretty gross stomach. Not sure if it would have tightened up if I got a bit leaner but It's hard to say that the issue is loose skin until you remove most of the fat.

>>42051998
So you still being a bit flabby wasn't a problem for them I take it? You think they'll care if I have gyno or some loose skin? I don't care if I get made fun of but it won't disqualify me or anything?

>>42052282
You shouldnt anyways, its hard to accurately measure how many calories you burn in a workout and most of the time its like 200-300 which is not much

How true is this, really? How much of loose skin is actually remaining fat?

>>42052282
That's... Yes. Good. Obviously.

>>42052294
See above. Cardio, even walking, is good exercise. Improving cardio improves overall health. It's certainly arguable lifting and gains are more important for fatties, but cardio is also important. We're all out of shape, HAES is bullshit.

>>42052294
cardio will also make you healthier in general, you sleep better, makes your bones stronger, reduces risks like heart disease and cancer, and generally a stronger heart and lungs

Okay guys I'm a poorfag, but I have a small set of dumbbells, a jump rope and shoes.

I was thinking something like this:

>Monday: Chest/arms (bodyweight + dumbbells)
Tuesday:HIIT Jump Rope
Wednesday: Legs/Butt
Thursday: HIIT running
Friday: Core
Saturday: Mix of Jump Rope and Running
Sunday: Day of Rest.

With 30-40 minutes of standard cardio (jogging/casual skipping) twice a day aside from Sunday to supplement it.

1600 calories in per day.

Don't give up, you won't die early if you put in the work now, right?

Love, a Pajeet

Is it actually possible to transform yourself in 30 days?

I have a BBQ 11th August, and I want to show everyone invited to it how much dedication and shit I'm putting in, as well as do it for myself.

6', 185lbs. Is it possible?

I don't think I've ever been out of overweight category since I was like 5. Hell most of my life I've been just obese.

>>42052736
The day when you no longer have to think... Have i made it? Is the day you'll have made it.

>>42053205
You have only been fat for nine days?

>>42053187
yes, but don't lose weight TOO quickly or you will have stretch marks.

It's much better to show a gradual-or-moderate change rather than a drastic change that will leave you with after-effects.

Do you want to show your hard work to others? You have to show your consistency, over time, and progressive effort.
Far more impressive imho and shows dedication, perseverance and persistence

So basically being an ex smoker is like playing The Game for the rest of your life

We don't know where you started, but no. It isn't.

Losing weight is a process. It takes time. They won't be amazed next year, but eventually they will be amazed, if you put in the work.

>gave into hunger and just binged ate a bunch of carrots

How much is half a bag of baby carrots?

>>42053295
probably 100 or 150 kcal, if it's the same size bags I usually get

>>42053295
Assuming a 1-pound bag, 80 calories give or take.

GUYS!!!

I work in an office, I have my own office, but I share it with someone else who I get along with really well, but they are often not here when I am and vice verse.

Today I took the six flight of stairs to my floor not once, but twice. Then at the end of the day I walked all eleven flights of stairs up and down. My legs felt like jello. Then in my office I did that thing where you pretend you're sitting in a chair, but you're leaning against a well. I did ten push ups and some lunges. I also took a long lunch and just walked around where I work. It is a sprawling campus with a lot of nice walk ways.

I think I did well! I've lost 4 lbs since the 27th of June.

>>42047332
I was on a road trip for a month and did not stop myself from eating, and did not exercise regularly. I have gained 10 pounds in less than a month, weight which took me a long time to lose.

Might be sodium/water weight. Drink a lot of water and go heavy on the cardio.

Think I can drop another 30 pounds by Christmas, is it doable? 5'10 230 pounds atm

Turkey chili filled with as many veggies as possible. One of my favs and you can make a shit ton that lasts a week or more

>>42051691
what's the big fucking rush? you could easily cut 37 lbs in a few months. extreme bullshit fad water fasting "diet" is only going to make you miserable.
try intermittent fasting. 16-8 is best one. you fast for 16 hours and eat within that 8 hour window.

185 to 135 since January. 5"7'

Things are slowing down very much but still seeing weight loss. Think i'm gonna make it you guys

>>42047973
