chill out m8, its not great but its no way close to as fat as most of the people on here. just cut and exercise responsibly and you'll be fine

How much weight do you have to lose to see the changes on face?

I'm losing weight so I can feel like I'm being physically dominated by my boyfriend during sex. I just think the contrast between a small girl and big guy is hot. That's one of my motivations for losing but it's so pathetic.

you could suvive on much worse foods for months, but that diet will leave you hungry as fuck and you'll probably overeat or order a pizza or something like that.

Cooking not my favourite thing to do either, thats why i cook for a week, 2 different types of meals

Chicken, brown rice and vegetables is easy and god tier macros.

Same here bruh. Ate some shit I can't even begin to count the calories of. Going to practically fast the rest of today since I know it'll leave me under maintenance if I stop here.

>>42200292
Happened to me to. Managed to avoid ALL shit food for 3 months straight. Kept hearing that cheat days can actually be productive and help in the long run so I decided to but few shitty items and ended up having cheat days several time a week trough out the month and didn't make any weight loss progress.

Does addiction run in your family, anon? I'm just curious, I ended up in the same boat. I became addicted to calorie counting and exercise.

Do you get obsessed with things for the short term? Then switch to a new obsession every few weeks, maybe months?

thanks anon, on a related note, I also did plateau all through this week, after gaining some water weight. I'm only now starting to lose it again.
I haven't had a binge since I started but I am weak, in the sense that I am still tempted.
I know it's not bad to be tempted as long as you resist successfully but still I wish it would completely leave my mind. Good job on your 40's in 4 months. Are you getting closer to your goal?

Why do so many of you fat fucks have so much problems with cravings? I eat fast food quite often but I fit it into my calorie count and still lose weight without feeling like total shit 24/7. Anyone ever told you fags that only eating a jogurt a day is not a sustainable diet measure?

a really good example of counting calories:

Why is Apple strudel so good

Good thing it was a lift day so i was able to burn it off

Do any of you /fat/ties use a wearable fitness tracker? I'm using a Samsung Gear Fit 2 and I'm enjoying it. It is helping keep track of a few things that wasn't really paying attention to.

>>42200618
yes, I was wondering where you went.

>>42200788
My mum gave me a fitbit surge when I was recovering from an operation last December. Pretty much all I could do was walk owing to the aches and pains, and it was interesting to watch the steps add up.

It's been neat to see my heartrate average go down as I lose weight too.
It's pretty neat but you can't lean on it too much.

>>42198402
I tend to eat bad foods like chocolates, and 2 times a month cheese burgers, but mostly always keeps to maximum intake of calories allowed to me (1500kcal, though I normaly eat up to 1000kcal daily)

Don't drink your calories! Could've been a 2000 calorie day.

I've heard that cold turkey on junk is really bad for like two weeks but after that you'll never want to eat them again. I need to be drastic or I'm going to keep making excuses for myself like I've done before ykno?

I'm 6 ft and 215 atm, working on a cut, trying to get more protein. Decently physical job and gym 5 days a week. Am I supposed to be shooting for 1g/lb of bodyweight or 0.5? 200g seems excessive.

>>42202240
It's lean body weight, try 150 at least

anyone has vietnam smellbacks?
It's when you suddenly get a whiff of a food you used to like even though it's nowhere near or in sight, and the smell alone makes you salivate.
It's strange how without any physical stimulus the brain can synthetically recreate a smell in your mind, even though it's not there.

>>42202426

disabuse yourself of the notion that you *need* to exercise in order to lose fat. yes, you should exercise because it's good for you. but you should modulate your diet immediately and lose fat. you can get that anon's results with zero exercise whatsoever.

don't let your lack of exercise induce you to put off dietary changes. implement them immediately.

I'm 10lbs away from where I want to be, but I don't think I can keep this up
I've been binging more and more lately, so much so that it's starting to wear down my spirit.

Even if I do get there, I won't stay there.
I never did in the past, and nothing has changed since.
I can watch what I eat, try to eat healthily, but I'm still just a fat guy in a thin guy's body.

I'll keep going for as long as I can, maybe that will be forever, maybe not.

>>42202548
You can do it in half a year just eating a 500 cal deficit.

Just did a 10 day water fast, 10 more days to go. Dropping loads of weight and has changed my perspective on hunger and food. You should research into it. Make sure you are medically able to though, that is very important.

What are some good beans to try and cook? Don't Know a thing about the different kinds.

>>42202637
>Make sure you are medically able to though, that is very important.
What do you mean?

>>42202571
You need to change your mindset m8. You're binging more now because you're very close to your goal and feel more secure in cheating some.

Lower your goal another 10-20lbs. That way you won't be able to slip right back into disappointing territory. For me my "true goal" is to maintain weight somewhere in the 160 range. However I'm not going to stop cutting until I reach 150. That way I won't slip right back to borderline overweight territory right away.

>>42202426
Just walk. 10k steps minimum every day, 5 miles or more if you can.

Its easy, you can listen to music or even play with your phone while you do it.

But really ,try many different kinds of exercise and find something you enjoy. Go to ymca and try swimming. Join a cheap gym and fuck with some machines, or an exercise bike, or the elliptical.

Asking other people what we do won't teach you what you like, and that's the only exercise really worth doing because if you don't enjoy it you won't do it anyway.

>>42202640
I recommend buying them canned before cooking them from dry. Beans take a long time to prepare (if you don't have a pressure cooker) and it sucks to put a lot of time into something you don't end up liking. Cans are plenty cheap too.

This is purely water retention and sugar.

I REPEAT FOR ANY FAT FUCKS READING THIS, IT SHOULD BE A BANNABLE OFFENSE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT WEIGHT CHANGES THAT OCCUR UNDER A WEEKS TIME.
DON'T FUCKING WEIGH YOURSELF MORE THAN ONCE A WEEK, THE WEIGHT YOU SEE ISN'T REAL.

Protip: Your body cycles through roughly your own bodyweight of ATP a day.
You 210 pounds?
You produced 210 pounds of just one molecule today.
Day to day weighing means jackshit.
Complaining about a binge and saying "yeah it took me 4 days to get back to where I was" is stupid.

It's about the journey m8s.
If you want map out your progress in excel and right click your line and allow it to show your R^2 value.
1 is perfect linear relationship.
Anything above 0.8 is substantial and should tell you that without a doubt you are doing it right.

Sorry for the caps but assholes need to read this post, weighing yourself all the time doesn't create more data points since the data is invalid.

Shoot for low body fat. If your are anything like most people here your original goal weight will probably have you looking skinnyfat. Getting your body fat % lower will cut that lower, and then building muscle will feel more rewarding.

>>42202841
>that would put me at underweight

No, not at all. If your goal is already to be at borderline underweight then that should be good.

>>42202883
I meant to quote more. What I mean is that you should not aim for being underweight.

>>42202833
Try it, but if your don't like it don't force yourself. Exercise shouldn't be awful, and most people seem to think it should be.

One flaw in C25K is that it doesn't have repeat weaks or strength training. If your current week is too hard, repeat the previous week. If you start getting into running, add strength training to improve your running even more.

>>42202774
>DON'T FUCKING WEIGH YOURSELF MORE THAN ONCE A WEEK, THE WEIGHT YOU SEE ISN'T REAL.

That's exactly why you should weigh yourself every day. Your weight fluctuates due to various factors. How much food is being digested, whether or not you took a shit recently, how much water weight you have etc...

The best way to get an accurate idea of your weight is to weigh yourself daily and be aware of your highs and lows and what factors seem to contribute to where you currently are.

The key is to UNDERSTAND this and not freak out because you went up a pound or two from the previous day.

>>42198402
I went drinking with friends tonight and drank at least 800kcal worth of beer, according to MFP.

I've stalled for two weeks after months of consistent weight loss.


Option A: stay the course at 1300cals, about a 900 cal deficit

Option B: eat at maintenance for 3 days, to "reset"

Option C: eat 800 cals for a few days to kickstart weight loss

What's the best option, or try each one and see if it sticks?

Or: now that I'm on a linear progression strength training program, are these noob gains?

>>42202979
If you are stalling for 2 weeks straight, you should take a good shit.

>149lbs this morning

>>42203084
Unlike many people here, apparently, I do not have problems shitting. My weight is fluctuating but hasn't dropped below 92kg for two weeks. I'm eating at the same deficit and exercising daily, so what gives?

>>42203193
>impromptu binge/purge
>I can't keep doing this...

If you mean that, you really should get help for your eating disorder.

Should I continue to cut, lean bulk soon or just do keto to lose the fat quickly? I'm 178cm tall, weigh 71kgs with a bf% around 20-24, have love handles and some fat in my chest.

>>42202571
It's easier to maintain once you're there than it is to get there. If you're on a 500 kcal deficit to lose your last 10 lbs, that means you'll be able to maintain at like 450 kcal higher than what you're eating now (I subtracted the 50 to account for weight loss decreasing your TDEE a little bit, this may not be exactly accurate). An additional 400-500 kcal a day is a huge difference. That can be a pint and a half of Halo top, or a couple chicken breasts, or like 4-5 bananas, or like 4 servings of greek yogurt, or even 3-4 cookies or some shit like that.

Just reach your goal anon, then it gets a bit easier. You just can't completely let your guard down, or you'll balloon up again.

>>42203265
It depends on what your goal is. Since you mentioned fat I assume you want to be rid of it, so keep cutting.

Keto while cutting might speed it up but it isn't necessary.

>>42203266
>a pint and a half of halo top

I get that people are excited about halo top, but tone it down.

>>42203255

And your description of impromptu doesn't mean you lost control? Then why was it impromptu? You just felt like it? What's the difference, then?

You know it's bad, you claim your should stop, and you did it without previously planning to. This is a a problem, and you should stop.

Tech/exercise hype.

Hopefully I can actually receive it today instead of having to reschedule, they always try deliver when I'm at work.

>>42203421
after my first esophegal tear, or tooth extraction, the message might sink in

It's hard to describe the mentality, but it's like once you've comitted to it then you're on autopilot until it hurts to eat any more.
And then you throw up until you can taste the first thing you ate (sorry to get graphic).

I recently reduced my deficit too. I'm eating almost at maintenance level and I'm still getting urges to binge.

>>42203494

Oh, but you can control it. You're having a lot of success, I see.

Just stop drinking. I went from 6-8 beers a day to zero and I couldn't be happier about it. My face is no longer red and bloated, I'm losing weight way faster, I'm getting more restful sleep and I'm saving money. It has been six weeks now and the cravings still come and go, but I just remind myself that how I feel and look now is a lot more satisfying than having a few drinks.

Outside of leafy greens what are the best ways of getting fiber? Plus that was last week I'm guessing pasta is a food that I'm gonna avoid.
>>42202774
But that was week, meaning I gained 4 pounds. That being said I did just get some dumbbells to lift, could that have something to do with it?

>>42203447
Is that one of those Fitbit things? What do they do?

>>42203984
Yeah, it's a fitness tracker / limited smartwatch by Garmin.

This one is more for runners. It has GPS and a heart rate monitor to track your runs, but it also counts steps, resting heart rate, inaccurate estimate of calories burned, let's you control smartphone music and read messages from your phone.

It also has apps, so I'm going to use it to track strength training too even though that isn't built in.

I used a Fitbit band that only counted steps, heart rate, and inaccurate calories, so I'm excited to upgrade.

They aren't necessary, but I found the fitbit was a big help when starting it giving me goals to hit and then quickly surpass as I got more serious.

>>42202764
Thanks Anon, will do this instead.

Worst thing about losing weight isn't even eating

Its getting to see how all the clothes you were wearing don't fit and look huge on you

Its time to go a size down and get some more clothes senpai :)

We're going to make it

>>42200593
Here's a good analogy. When Buddhist monks meditate they aren't trying to find the most quiet place to relax. They are actively training their attention and focus. Every sudden noise in their environment is a new temptation to block on the way to a calm mind.

The same can be said about dieting. You must focus your attention and notice when temptation comes. Your mind will wander naturally, maybe settle on a Cheeseburger, or Pizza. You have to catch that thought and analyze where it originated. Consciously beating your mind is the most difficult task a person can do, and when you successfully take control it will feel like climbing a mountain.

All Peace to You,
Disco

probably a combination of convenience, habit, and compulsion for some. I don't crave much fast food myself, and if I do it's something like Chipotle or somewhere where I can get a salad.

I ate Chik-fil-a today. I had their chicken wrap with their apple cider vinagrette dressing (only half a packet) plus their superfood side. Delicious stuff.

>>42202920
That's just useless and causes stress.
Week to week can still be skewed if you aren't consistent, like eating salty food before weighing in one week.
This can be accounted for by just knowing you counted calories correctly and looking at the trend.
Weighing yourself everyday is indicative of mental illness and I'm not shitposting, this is obsessive behavior that will lead you into either anorexia or catapult you back into obesity.
Counting calories on the other hand can be done with good mental health, the only thing /fat/ needs to understand, which most of /fit/ does, is that eating something you are not sure of is okay every once in a while.

You can still eat something grandma cooked you or go to the bar every once in a while, counting calories shouldn't make you develop a need where you have to know EVERYTHING, it should help you know how much you eat in your normal life 95% of the time.

>>42204703
I do a fair few days. You will have times when its really easy, and times when its really hard.

>>42203973
Chia/Flax seeds are healthy and have good amount of fiber.
Fiber One cereal has a very large amount of soluble fiber for the calories.
You also have different kinds of beans/lentils.

Also misread your post earlier and assumed your weight changed in one day, apologize.
Try to be healthy both mentally and physically when losing weight bros.

>>42202568
Just have solace in that beer makes you retain water and shit food also has a lot of sodium.
It's okay to go out socially and have shit eating habits once or twice a month (as long as you aren't truly feasting on 10,000 calories) but weighing yourself the next morning is just going to make you have a bad time.
Your body is going to be retaining water and all the extra food is still swimming around in there, just give it a few days.

>>42204345
Doesn't look too bad with certain styles so you might have to change it up a bit.
Most of these styles are considered by people here probably hipsterish or "slacker" but it's honestly one of the few things that works with ill-fitting clothes.
If you are losing weight and people notice they won't care or judge as much, you're gonna make it.

Maybe search the /fa/ archive and see if they have experience with it, might be interesting with what those /fa/ggots have come up with.

Not sure if this is the right thread.... but;

Currently I'm 165lbs @ 5'8" and I'm supposedly 20% bf... pic related.
I am eating 1800 calories everyday and working out 3days a week full body with some light cardio on rest days. However.. I am stalled at 165lbs and idk what to do? Btw I'm also IF as well. I don't think I should go below 1700 calories as that cuts into my BMR. Any suggestions?

>>42204929
You arent eating enough

>>42204929
Curious what you are covering on your chest, a tattoo?

And yeah wrong thread, /fit/ is more knowledgeable than /fat/ generally, /fat/ is more for emotional support (not hating).
Increase you calorie intake to maintenance and keep lifting.
You'll still lose weight and stop stalling, if you start stalling again then just very slowly increase intake up to 300+ calories above maintenance.

>>42202647
If you have naturally low potassium, or iron, you might run into some issues. Also heart conditions and diabetes can be problematic. If you have any of these issues limit fasts to 4 days. If you go longer than 5 days use a refeeding program or you can die.

How long can I live off of 1000 or less calories before my body metabolism gets obliterated and I start gaining weight again? I just can't muster up the energy to make food and I don't want to order out because every fucking restaurant has a shitload of carbs and saturated fats.

>>42204703
I think about all the other times I have given up. I remember 2 years ago when I broke under 300, I slowly just gave it all away until I ate my way back to where I was when I started.

Then I think about all the time I lost by no longer trying, because it was so difficult, or it seemed so difficult in hindsight.

I'm getting closer to under 300 again - back at my lowest that I was at 2 years ago. I'm not giving it up again. Hopefully I can get it before I go on vacation for the mental victory. I won't go crazy on vacation as long as I keep counting.

>>42204703

>>42205235
When people say "stalling" they mean they aren't able to lift more usually, that's what I assumed you meant since plateauing is what people use when they can't lose more.
It's just semantics really but a bit confusing, especially when you aren't that big.

Different bodies react to different things, I've seen a few sources indicating that carb refeeds might work but it doesn't seem to help everybody.
Personally it works well for me, if I'm stuck the best thing to do is eat 500-1000 calories above maintenance for 3 days and make sure it's mostly carbs.
It honestly works better with shit food like an entire little caesars pizza, I practically shit myself and somehow I start burning fat again.

I see. I've thought about doing a carb refeed or "cheat day" I had some tex-mex last night which completely diverged from my standard meals and were definitely carb heavy and I lost a pound this morning even though I definitely ate over 1800cal yesterday. But I disregarded it as a fluke. Thanks for some advice though anon

I'm trying to replace my high sugar/processed food diet for this. Is this OK? I don't know how to cook and have very little money. What can I improve? I looked into brown rice but I don't want arsenic poisoning.

>>42205874
1. Learn to cook
2. Know what your macro needs are
3. Corn is worthless
4. Buy in bulk when you can, you can get huge bags of rice dude.

>>42205874
This is fine, corn is worthless. Add some chicken and just make chicken and rice in bulk

>>42205874
frozen veggies are good too

>>42205890
Why is corn worthless?

>>42205923
I can't afford chicken.

>>42205927
I tried frozen vegetables before and they were pretty bad. I liked these canned ones.

>>42205558
Carbs aren't essential while the body needs fats and some essential proteins.
Fat is great for hormones and satiety, that's pretty much it.
I don't demonize carbs like a lot of people but they do tend to not be very filling.

I recommend (don't ever base your life choices on one post, google shit) eating high protein, high fiber, moderate fat, low carb.
I'm talking a bowl of fiber one or something equivalent to start the day and eating greens with every meal, will be full as fuck with a shit ton of vitamins.
Healthy fats too, like from fish.

>>42206023
Did you steam the frozen vegetables?
Because that's what you should be doing.

Corn has little nutritional value and satiety, a shit tier vegetable that is only eaten so much because of the US having so much of it.
Buy a bigger bag of rice.
Buy bags of dried beans, super cheap but you have to soak them overnight before cooking.
Beans are high in protein but if you need help google seitan and vital wheat gluten.
You can get 4 lbs of gluten for like 15 bucks online, almost pure protein and is cheaper than chicken.
Only problem is it's missing two essential amino acids but as long as you eat beans and other shit you should be fine.

Eggs don't go bad very fast so buy in bulk, at least 18 count cartons but you can get much larger.

As far as kitchen shit goes everyone should own a steamer basket, crockpot, and kitchen scale.
Crockpot is GOAT for making food taste good and last a long time, fill it with spices and beans with seitan and you got a gains train lasting a week.
Drink your water btw faggot.

>>42206283
any good crock pot recipes?

>>42206321
I literally just throw stuff in there, I'm on the other dark side of /fat/, I enjoy all food.
I could eat raw vegetables for every meal and be happy, if it's food it's food.

>>42206283
No I didn't steam them. I will try that. I will also ditch the corn and get either nuts or more beans. ty

>>42206333
Nuts are another food that can be bought in bulk, try look for ones with not too much sodium.
How else could you eat frozen vegetables, boil them?
Boiling would just make them soggy and gross.
Steamer baskets that just go in your pot are incredibly cheap so get one.
Google "poor healthy living" or something, some blogs are just people posting their weekly budget (like sub 25 bucks) and they actually get quite a bit for it.
Don't be scared of looking at vegan or vegetarian ones either, I'm not vegan but they have some good food choices though.
Any meat should be the cheapest cuts you can find at the store, but honestly I would just go with eggs.

Also general fatty reminder, if you like your bread you can add vital wheat gluten to it if homemade.
This will make the macros far more sides with protein, try it.

>>42205570
So basically if I eat enough eggs and take supplements, as long as I'm below TDEE i'm golden?

Shitty idea don't do it. Learn to eat good food appropriate to your TDEE.

Take it a day at a time, and don't give up. Eat under your TDEE, and if you feel like you need junk food have some. Just fit it into your TDEE. You'll see the calories aren't worth it and want it less and less.

>>42202918
Addendum: just finished day 2 week 3 and it was SO MUCH more enjoyable than week 1 and even week 2. That first week sucked hard, because I didn't have the strength, conditioning, or cardiovascular fitness, but having pushing through, I'm so fucking glad I did. Discomfort should be carefully monitored so you don't hurt yourself, but also so you don't give up if it's in the normal range rather than the threatening-injury range.

>>42202979
I recommend option two. Did it accidentally with a weekend binge and saw a whoosh the next week. Just don't forget to decrease your calories again after the refeed (maintaining the willpower for this is the problem I aways have!)

>>42203318
This is what I told myself in the months leading up to my fully fledged ED. I recommend nipping that shit in the bud senpai; it can get nasty quick, and I don't think anyone ever sees it coming.

>>42203494
Another thing that helped me to stop was understanding how quickly the energy is absorbed. A good 1/3-1/2 of the calories will be absorbed by your body before you can finish throwing up, unless you are inhumanly efficient at purging (protip: you're still binging, so you're not)

>was down to 201lbs last week or so
>scales today say 203lbs
>probably due to all the bad shit I've eaten basically out of comfort/due to stress

I have the same problem, everytime I go eat with friends I gain ~5ibs the next morning. Usually goes away within a week, but I had to learn to not hang out with my friends when dinner is involved :(

>>42205120
I'd like some source on that too.

>>42206721
Why would you care? It's just water weight, it's not fucking possible to gain 5lbs in a day dude.

When you're eating really really small, there's not a lot of food in your intestines and stomach. Then when you weigh yourself in each morning, or however often you do, you get the lowest possible weight for your body. So when you go out with friends and eat much more than normal, the following morning there is more in your stomach and intestines than normal, and the number is higher. You didn't gain all that as weight. Just don't do it too often and you'll be fine.

>>42204141
how quickly did you lose the weight? and how much water did you drink everyday?

>>42204515
>>But like should i try to do X amount of push ups or something
Without a doubt, you should start hitting the gym to get more muscle mass and cardio if you feel like it.

That's not how it works, dummy. Your body is burning calories. It TDEE is how many calories you burn in a day. At long as your calories are below that amount, your body will burn them. You'll lose weight slower, but your won't be gaining.

Did you just plan to never eat again, you idiot?

I'm not sure that's possible anon. How long have you been plateauing? Either way I wouldn't suggest fasting for that long like that.

I ate 1000 cals one day and gained 1kg and haven't been able to lose it again I just stay the same, haven't even lost 0.1kg, and I'm not lying about what I eat or anything which is why it worries me a ton. I didn't plan on doing anything, it just happened.

>started hard (not that much, to be frank) but gradually became quite enjoyable, as long as i had adequate songs on my ears
Now I'm going back to my appartment, and am remembering that some asshole broke the one i bought last year during a party. Never found out who it was since the coward never admitted anything. I barely used it but it's done.
I don't really have the kind of money to buy another, guess I'll have to start saving again.

you could reasonably cut 3-5% bf more.
In the end it depends if you want to lay the ground work now and have a good starting base for a long clean bulk, or if you're ready to start now and will have to cut later a bit deeper than you would if you'd have shed those last % beforehand. If you're "dirty" bulking, it doesn't matter you'll have to cut deep anyway after that.

>>42207310
thx anon c:

300 pounds isn't that fat, right?
I mean I'm still skinny.

>>42207320
No worries man. Keep it up.

>>42207329
I hope you kept lifting, and most of it is muscle.
It would explain how you would feel "skinny" still at such a weight, since muscle is less dense than fat. Do you have a picture? I'm curious to see the results. Also could serve as a good reminder for anyone prepping for a bulk to take some good measures regarding how to bulk properly.

>>42207344
No, I had to stop lifting. It's mostly fat.

>8 more weeks to go till end of cut according to losertown
>roughly 4 kg
>on a 800 calorie deficit
Lord help me be strong for the final laps...

After that, maintaining will feel like feasting which will be good to build back up a healthier relationship with greater portions of food without indulging, I think. I think if it went on for much longer I would probably have developed an ED like some of you here, though it'd be anorexia because I can't fucking throw up for the life of me.

>>42207348
well, at least you probably already have an idea on what to do in terms of weight lifting, maybe you already have been through a linear progression program, know the basics lifts form and such. That's some time saved being ignorant. Your downfall seemed to be discipline in diet, which probably led to no results, and as a consequence abandoning ship for lifting too.
Focus on fixing your diet now, I mean hitting your perfect macros very regularly, and improving the quality of food you eat to get your micros in too.

Read Lyle Macdonald's "The Rapid Fat Loss Handbook" even if you're not crash dieting (which you shouldn't be)

Literally just up protein and try to reduce everything as much as possible, try to get enough EPA/DHA

>weight increased by 0.1kg this morning

AAAAAAAAAAAAAA MY 5 DAY STREAK IS RUINED REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>42207449
kek you're a lightweight dude.
I just came through a week long plateau after my weight increased by a kg in one day and I had to gradually lose all that water weight throughout the course of a week before going back to previous recorded weight, then wait another week to see some actual progress.

0.1kg should be the least of your worries. Actually even 1kg of water weight isn't bad, it's just a mental setback because of the hit your motivation will take if you don't rationalize it.
Take it easy.

>>42206653
I've actually talked to a med student about this
that claim is total bullshit
the bulk of the calories are absorbed in the lower intestines, not the stomach
the stomach just digests the food so it passes through the intestines easily as liquid mush

I agree with you that vomiting to stave off weight gain is dumb, but I have to correct you on this because I see it parroted often by people who hear it and never bother to check the validity for themselves.

>>42207475
I know senpai I just get a bit autistic when putting the numbers into excel every morning and I hate it when anything breaks a nice streak downwards I have going

Longest streak was 20 days and that was 2 months ago

>>42207205
>almost two weeks.

That can't be right. I'm assuming you're drinking plenty of water right? And you're always weighing yourself after you go to the bathroom? I cannot fathom how anyone could eat nothing and stay the same weight for more than a few days..... let alone 2 weeks.

I want to be 125 pounds by mid October. I am 173 right now :(

I need help guys. I've been doing OMAD basically for like a couple months now, but lately I have started to feel hungry as fuck during the day, even if I eat a sufficient amount during my meal (dinner).
Anyway I've made enough fasting gains now that I can safely go back to eat 2 meals a day and doing IF 16:8 for the rest of my cut.
Any fasting anons here can tell me what to expect going back to more meals? I don't think I'll binge or go over my deficit, but I'm honest to god scared I'll fuck my shit up now that I'm used to one insulin spike a day. Will the hunger increase as I start to eat more?
tl;dr give me the rundown on what to expect in terms of adjustments when reintroducing two meals and more a day.

>>42207515
I'm sure he ate lots of "nothing"...that's the only way to explain it. Gosh I hate when people use exaggerations, especially when to minimize the proportions of things. He's a secret eater. Or a sleepwalker. I heard stories of people that would go to the story, buy, stuff and bake thanksgiving turkeys while sleeping.

>>42207505
I get it anon, I'm autistic with numbers too. I like to see in patterns, make trends, have an overview, that kind of stuff. Just don't let it turn into an unhealthy obsession, as in let it lead you to eating disorders or something.

>>42207515
Yeah I drink between 1.5 and 4 L of water a day plus 1L of green tea every few days, weigh myself in the mornings after bathroom and nothing. My weight fluctuates 1kg up and down and that's it.
I don't completely fast, I eat a few pickles every day for breakfast and an apricot for lunch. I am going crazy desu.
Should I exercise more? I'm scared of feeling dizzy and faint and still not lose anything.

>>42207527
>Will the hunger increase as I start to eat more?

Initially yes, at least that's what happened to me (especially in the morning) but your body will adapt quickly

Just make sure you weigh your meals and count the calories properly and you'll be fine

>>42207112
I feel like I've just stepped out of a time machine.

>>42207565
10lbs in 2-3 months should not be that big an issue. What's your TDEE and what have you been eating at lately?

I know it gets harder to drop weight the lower you get and that everyone is different but I've been losing weight steadily sub-200, I'm currently 186 and still have been losing several pounds a week roughly. my limit is 1,700 calories but some days I will only eat around 1,000. Plus I do IF fairly consistently which I am assuming helps but I really cannot be positive as to how much.

>>42207522
>>42207565
You girls can make it, it's fine to give yourself timelines and to go by deadlines to reach but don't let it become a fatality. It's a journey. Honestly, you'll start liking what you see very soon, just keep going and don't...weigh in the cons as bad as the goods. Remember what you're doing it for.
I started my own weight loss 1st of may at around 142lbs and today I weighed in at 113lbs.
Going for 100lbs. So it's not impossible to make a 29pound loss in about three months. I did work my butt off and make a drastic deficit to achieve it, but it's just because I was in a time crunch. Now that I've made 3/4 of the way, I'm going to relax and lower my deficit, and just cruise for a good three to four months to lose the last 13lbs.
Just keep going anonettes, you'll get there. It really doesn't matter when. Halfway there you'll already feel good about where you're at.

>>42207543
I've passed out already once, am very weak and my stomach and head hurts, how is that being a secret eater

>>42207598
okay thanks for the advice. If it's anything like the hunger I already feel doing OMAD, I can take it, I'm a big girl. I'll reintroduce other meals progressively. Probably go for a small snack, then a couple snacks and then a full meal into my eating window.
Don't worry I have a digital scale I use adamantly, and I track calories autistically, often overestimating.

>>42207616
do a refeed idiot, instead of literally killing yourself.
You have to kickstart your metabolism, your organs are probably shutting down, your stomach included, that's why you're not losing weight anymore. Eat for a couple days (I'd suggest at least a week in your moron extreme case) at maintenance, and then gradually reintroduce a deficit. And hit your fucking macros and micros, or else you're on the fast track to nutritional deficiency city and that's bad news, anon.

This might be a stretch, but any guy from here living in South Korea or with experience losing weight in Korea?

I'm going to be living there for a year. I have experience with Korean food and they really love their white rice, noodles, and when they make meat they use a lot of sugar. I don't know how to control myself eating there.

Is white rice really that fattening? Will I be okay if I'm actually used to eat plenty of white rice ever since I was a kid?

>>42207690
there are two Japanons that I know of that browse /fat/. As per foods you should have, focus on the high protein seafoods, the Korean barbecued meats (only those that are not seasoned with condiments, and that you can broil in those pots or grill on the hot plates directly). Eat the vegetables, focus on filling up on protein, then veggies, then carbs such as grains and wheat based stuff if you really can afford it calorie wise.

>>42207654
I can't I'm sad and I don't wanna gain weight

Been on /fit/ since 2007 when I was 293lbs at my max.
Just remember, fatties.
We're all gonna make it.

>>42207716
you won't gain fat weight if you eat at maintenance. How little do you know about weight loss, anon?
Most you can do is gain a little water weight because of the new intake of sodium, but that's something you can shed easily after that.
Also if you'd rather die miserably than gain a temporary pound to reset your system, you don't deserve being healthy.

>>42207723
I ate on Monday at maintenance but I didn't reset anything so idk if it can be possible

>>42207717
t-thanks anon, means a lot.
Been here on and off since 2010, but up until 2015 I was skinny or fit. Some circumstances in life, my own personal failures, led me to put on the weight.
I am only 8lbs from my "pre-weight gain" weight, though, and it feels fucking fantastic. Next is working on getting back in that shape, as weight is not so much an indicator of good body composition.

>>42207737
And so the "nothing" burger unravels to reveal more truth.

So technically, you've been eating pickles and apricots on your "fasted" days, had a maintenance day on monday, yet you claim to have eaten "nothing" for two weeks.
Here's a couple tips :
1. Pickles have high sodium. Depending on the amount you've eaten over the course of these two weeks, you will probably have put on a couple pounds water weight just because of them. It means you have lost fat, because of your deficit but it doesn't show because of water weight.
2. You ate at maintenance for a day. This is not enough to reset your metabolism when you've been eating less than <500 calories for two weeks. I suggest to try it for a week. Then gradually reintroduce a deficit.

Clearly you know very little about how weight loss works and just jumped on the fasting meme without doing your research. It works, you're not doing it right.

>>42207768
I said on my first post that I've eaten low calorie and fasted, not that I ate nothing.
And I said as well I didn't jump into any meme, i said that I didn't start on purpose. Lurk more.

Congratulations, you apparently have an eating disorder as your have demonstrated several times a fear of food. You've routinely expressed fear of eating due to gaining weight, but eating doesn't make you put on weight. Overeating above your TDEE does.

>>42208052
are you working out at all? Or just water fasting?

I think 40kg in 7 months is pretty amazing. Goes to show that weightloss is made in the kitchen. A gym is a good extra for moob removal and muscle building purposes.

>>42208157
Water fasting. I've always been around 80-85kg for a while and it feels great to be in the 70s again.

My parents always bought bread from ALDI.

Hey guys, did one of those electrical body fat check things, unknown they are inaccurate but I was curious, came out at 24% which I'd say is pretty bang on based on pictures and makes my goal weight seem realistic. Don't know if anyone could answer this but how much of weight loss is fat loss? I am lifting with high protein but I'm curious that say for everyone 10lb of weight I lose how much of that is fat?

fucking nice anon, and the tan really suits you.
You went from 2/10 on a good day to legit 6.5/10 (by my /fit/ standards - normie you'd probably be a 8/10). I'd suggest cutting a bit more, continuing to lift meanwhile, and then starting a bulk.

>>42209557
yep. I don't get why this guy keeps shilling his OWIAW (One Weigh-In A Week) stuff. I know he wants the people just starting not to lose their shit at the first sight of stagnation or regression, but really that's an important lesson everyone should learn, and one of the first few ones. Weight is not a constant, it's a fluctuation. By definition, any scale of grandeur, unit of measurement through time, whether it's quantum seconds or eternity is the same (really makes you think about life...), the same neutral object and holds the same function : measure.
So apply some good measure and pick a good time, so to speak, it should not be up to anyone else but you to determine at which speed/distance you wish to hold measurements on a certain aspect of your life (mass).
