Kudos to the anon that recommended lentil pottage, i made the Israelite lentil pottage and that stuff tastes pretty amazing and filling. Made a giant pot of it for next week meals.

TFW got my degree in teaching and while I would enjoy doing it.

>Fat, not woman = Hard as shit time landing a position at a school that isn't super low economic population.

Really should have just went and got a comp sci or at least cisco/support certs instead.

I'd probably make more money but soon my savings run out and my college apartment lease is over December so I have to find some job by then.

/fat/ bros do not go into teaching unless you're ok with poverty.

Hardest side of things is most companies treat my Bachelors degree like it's trash since they think current education degrees are still super easy cake walks like they were in the 90s.


/fat/ side of things I had too much to eat today and still didn't break 2.5k calories. I'm ok with that.

Last day of vacation. I've enjoyed eating at TDEE. Hopefully this will help me break out of the stall I've been in.

We're looking for 12 people to fill up all the vacated slots in the contest. I now only need the following information to join and participate -

Name -
Height -
Starting Weight -
Current Weight -
Goal Weight -

From there I'll calculate your pounds to lose and then you're in for the 13th weigh-in on Friday and guaranteed a bracket in the August Weight-loss tournament.

what should i get for dinner? all i've eaten today is lean protein and it's making me want to kill myself

i still have 1400 calories to play with

>>42322930

Yeah, friend. Save it for after a cut.

>Creatine isn't natty

How does this excerptanything about CICO? It's claim is that this type of exercise is more effective in losing weight, not that CICO isn't important.

>keep burning fat after you've racked the bike

Burning fat is burning calories, it's just saying the nature of the workout means you keepburning after you've stopped actively working out. That isn't news, every workout does that to some degree, though this article is saying this exercise is particularly effective.

This isn't saying anything about CICO.

>>42323159
I like to run on the treadmill for 5-10 minutes, about the time I takes to get myself to a really high HR which burns out 30% of my breakfast, which is basically oatmeal and cinnamon and walnuts and then start my fat burning elliptical workout where I lose 600 calories in 60 mins with 1 break and I also drink plenty of water as I'm doing it to get rid of ketones. At the end of my workout I eat 35-40g of protein.

Rate my cardio workout.

>>42323463
>elliptical workout where I lose 600 calories in 60 mins with 1 break
Hrm

I still stand by my stairclimber routine.
>13 minutes including cooldown
>Do well over 250+ calories, but never quite 300 unless you really cheat in the cool down
>Repeat x4
1k in less than an hour.

I go to PF and use the stair climbers there. I don't play around with the programs, I just liked using the "Kilimanjaro" one and rationalized that it'd be good training for hiking. Intensity levels here are meaninglessly subjective, but if you're doing the same machine, I have it on 13, maybe 12 for 18 minute stints.

Disclaimer: I use the machine's estimate of calories burned based on your weight.

Ellipticals have always felt fucking odd on my knees. I hated doing them.

How did you manage that? The sodium will probably cause you to have more water retention. So your weight will be a bit higher for awhile, but it's not weight gain

Don't eat back exercise calories. At most 50% of what a calculator says you burned. It's fine to track it on an app, to know how much you are doing. But don't assume it's accurate.

>>42324701 Me at 250lbs and ready to be held accountable. After incredible encouragement from a friend, I knew I had to start to lose weight. I was over the 300lbs mark and didn't have any love interests/anyone interested in me so I never really cared to lose weight and look better. I have very low self-confidence (especially because of my man-boobs) but my confidence has been climbing the more I lose weight, take pictures of myself, and accept and love my body. I gave up pop/fast food (I'll have something maybe once/twice a month but I can't stand fast food now). I haven't weighed 250 since high school and as fat as I am, I feel so skinny right now. Those like me that have lived their whole lives fat don't know anything different -- the daily grind of eating. This is my first day on /fit/ and I'm ready to leave my old life behind.

>>42325010
You might wanna go down to 150lbs, there is a lot of fat stored there.
After that you can bulk bulk bulk.
But yeah, looks like you're gonna make it if you already lost 50lbs

Sometimes I think what's the goddamn point of getting in shape? I'm still going to hate myself. I'm still not going to be able to form a meaningful connection with another human being. I'm not going to get any quality women.

I've been on my diet for a week and have lost all desire to eat anything. I have to force myself to eat now. Is this a sign my metabolism is crashing?

Switched routine from lifting 5 times a week to lifting 4 times and doing cardio on off days.

nice progress man.

ive always had problems(go up and down between 250 and 160 over the last 15 years) with the obliques retaining width as i lose weight,

Is there anything i can do or is it just how my body stores fat? I dont have alot of front, but i get wider as i get heavier(from 160-200+)

>>42325468
looks like loose skin

>>42325364

>>42325468

Most of the fat left on me is in my lower belly/love handles it seems, no idea why. I'm assuming i'm almost at the point where it will start to go because my arms and legs don't have a tremendous amount of fat left compared to months ago.

Could be because of my super wide hips or something i guess.

>>42325533
don't worry bro, as you get closer to about ~160 it will fix itself, keep you the good work and stay motivated!

This is spooky as fuck but I started at 220 a month before you, same height. 161 now, I have pretty much the same fat distribution too, don't know whether I regret not taking any progress pictures or not, I abhor being in photographs. Still have belly fat to lose at 161, my original goal was 170, but I guess I was more fat than man. Good work anon.

go for electrolytes+minerals senpai

Just alternate using the two products.
Also if you guys like the taste of salt but can't handle too much sodium, try the potassium salts mentioned above.

>>42325227
no anon, this is a sign of early remission of the eating disorder you used to have. Past a couple days, the habitual circuitry of mindless eating will start not functioning as well, your stomach will shrink, you won't crave food as much because your appetite is reduced by less intake fueling leptin production...It's all very natural. Just maintain a healthy relationship with food as much as you can, don't go all the way to end up an anorexic/bulimic skelly who can't stand the sight of food.

this is why you gotta start working your core (abs/obliques/serratus) since day 1 lads. Sure most of his pouch is still fat/loose skin, but if you don't do what I mentioned, you'll keep cutting and cutting expecting your love handles to melt, or your lower belly pouch to shed, but it'll be the last thing to go. For people like him (and me) who store fat in their mid section, this should be the wakeup call that this is the area to target with exercise the most you can so you can (not fat spot reduce of course but) develop a muscular outline that'll make it so much more easier to appear leaner even at higher bf% than goal weight. Let this be a warning, I've read through my share of "my love handles/pouch won't go", it's time someone addressed it.

Pretty sure you just need to keep losing weight and eventually they'll start to go

>>42325364
Start hitting pull ups, chest and traps, you want to make your upper body look bigger because you have wide hips. Good progress though, keep at it.

>>42325942

I was actually able to a single unassisted pull-up just a week ago for the first time ever, super excited about it, so i'll definitely be doing plenty more upper body stuff. I'm hoping working my upper back will help save my shoulder posture from years of shitposting and a desk job.

>>42325641

damn you must be feeling good, keep it up if not only for the health benefits

Friendly reminder to everyone here -

1. If you want to achieve efficient, healthy weight loss you WILL need to learn how to cook
2. Eating out, even at the healthiest of establishments, is incredibly difficult/impossible on your most efficient diet
3. You need to read up on your macros (macronutrients) and starting giving them as much attention as you give caloric intake
4. One cheat meal can make you retain a lot of water and stall your weight loss progress. Figure out if that slice of pizza is worth it.
5. You need to do some soul searching and figure out if this is really what you want. A half-assed effort will yield virtually zero result.
6. We're all going to make it.

>>42326153
>A half-assed effort will yield virtually zero result.

Not entirely true, there are some 300lb people here who will lose an astonishing amount of weight at the very start just by eating like 200 calories less than they normally do because their bodies have no idea what's going on

It does get significantly more difficult the lower you go however

The strangest thing I noticed is that for most of my life I wondered how people could sleep on their stomach or side when it's so uncomfortable, it didn't take me long to realise I couldn't physically do it because I was so fucking overweight and now sleeping on my stomach is my go-to position and I sleep better than ever

That's a good incentive right?

>>42326173
If they're 300 pounds, they're probably used to eating over 3,500 calories/day. At 3,300 calories/day, I highly doubt they would lose anything. If they did, it would be incredibly minimal and defeating, and therefor not sustainable.

I see where you're coming from, just making some general observations.

>>42326195
I'm not the anon you replied to

I'm 30 pounds down, and come to think of it, I am comfier on my stomach, but still don't like sleeping on it. I am, however, sleeping on my side more. It's a whole new world.

But surely it wouldn't matter in the long run right? Taking up extra water weight isn't going to reduce the rate at which your fat used up.

I'm just thinking its more of a waste of time more than anything, get the exercise over and done with and move on with you day.
Break long enough to recover your breath.

Hey /fat/, should I exercise with the AC on? A friend told me I shouldn't turn it on so I'd sweat more, but I get tired much faster if it's off.

How do people feel about when to take progress pictures? I took mine in January when I was weighing around 181lbs, now I'm around 167lbs with another 20lbs to my first goal weight.

I know there is a change because I can see it and clothes fit differently so I don't see the need go take another until I've got down to 145lbs. I'm more interested to see if my anterior pelvic tilt fixes with weight loss.

Do you prefer to do pictures along the way or only once you've reached your goal?

Also, for people who haven't done pictures and who frequently feel discouraged by not seeing differences in the mirror - I strongly recommend you take pictures. No one has to see them but you and they can help you visualise the change.

I don't think taking them too close together is a good idea because you might compare the two and if it isn't a good amount of weight difference then physically speaking you might still look similar, which can be disheartening for a lot of people

I work firefighter duty for the counties largest city, then work EMS for the county, then do ER rotations 20hr weekly
So usually it's two 24hr shifts a week for the fire brigade, three 12 hour shifts for the ambulance corps, and two 10 hour shifts for the emergency department

I can't carry food with me in the ambulance really, and my county is pretty busy. In a typical fire shift I get about 18 calls, and in a typical EMS shift I get 8-12 depending on the weather.
A call usually takes 30-60 minutes
I rarely eat anything from anywhere out-I had McDonalds on Thursday, but I was only able to eat like half of a McDouble because it just didn't taste right. Usually what I do is grab a protein bar from a gas station, but subsiding off of between 400-600kcal in a physical job like this is dangerous to myself, my crews, and the patients. Plus, by not eating sufficiently all I do is just make my body store garbage when I do manage to take in more than 1,000kcal.

I guess meal prep would be the way to go? I got into this state by eating like trash for two years after joining the fire brigade, but damn if I don't feel like a porker. I don't want to be the hypocrite telling overweight patients how bad off they are when I myself don't exactly look the part.

Yeah, 104 hours a week. Sometimes 94. Usually the summer is extra busy, November to May I usually just work 72, two 24s at Fire and two 12s at EMS.
Pretty typical for most paramedics is two jobs. Usually a county EMS or fire service and a private ambulance service or shifts in the ER. I'm fulfilling clinical hours for a different certification right now, and my instructor won't take my Paramedic hours as patient contact hours for some reason.

>>42326606
I mean why would it? You'll weigh less due to the increased water loss but I can't see the lack of AC burning more actual fat. Just because you sweat more doesn't mean you burned more fat. You just lost more water.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong tho.

Can be. Not to get into it because this isn't a /feels/ thread but it also helps me escape.
It's kind of hard to explain-but being on the knifes edge keeps me from having the spastic and sporadic meltdowns outside of work, so to keep the mental anguish away we generally work the the point of near exhaustion, and then work a little bit more, so we can just collapse and sleep when we're done.
Going back to the gyms been helping though. It gives me a healthier outlet then eating or being otherwise lazy.

Plus I like what I do. I love helping people. I like being a Paramedic a lot. It's all I ever wanted to do in life was to help people who needed it most-and I get to do that every day I work.

I have been eating rice and chicken breast every night but i put tomato sauce on it.
Is that acceptable for weightloss?
I so far have lost about 1.5kgs in 1 week.

>>42326633
Okay, thanks. I'll believe you since I want to, I hate exercising without the AC since it's freakin exhausting.

>>42326677
That's pretty brutal.
I'm glad you like what you do, too many people do mind-numbing physical work of which they only get noticed if they fuck up, at least you can say you make a difference in the world.

>>42326710

Just add lots of spices and herbs to your meal, you won't need sauce then.

Ive already lost over 35kgs.
Im just curious on peoples thoughts about sauce.
Makes it easily edible and cals are around 1500 a day.

Some of these gifs come from a web site where they're set up with ambient sounds and some viewing options, pretty comfy.

>>42326740
If you've lost 35kg's why are you asking if it works? Clearly it does, and if you only just started why would you switch up a winning method?
Sauce is drinking calories and should be avoided, but I'm too partial to bbq to follow my own advice.
Just do your best to count the sauce calories ok?

>>42326732
herb recommendations? what's good for chicken? I use all sorts of sauces and they really are pretty unhealthy, still low calories though of course

>>42326756
Lemon, Thyme, Chilli, Paprika, Rosemary, Garlic, Masala.
Chicken is so generic you add basically anything and it will taste good.

>>42326776

If you want to improve your diet, eating solely chicken and rice is NOT a way to do it lol

>>42326791
I know. But its lower cals and filling.
While also hitting a decent amount of protein.
I can sustain my weight no issues so its not a "diet" kind of deal.

>>42326807
you think you can eat chicken and rice for a month straight? what about two months? what about three months? you are on a fast track to failing your diet out of sheer lack of variety. have fun

>>42326827
Easily. I am a man of repetition.
I ordered the same thing everyday for 2 years.
Part of how i got to such a heavy weight to begin with.

>>42326756
find your favorite sauce, look up it's aromatic composition (the herbs, spices used), and recreate it by mixing it with equal proportions.
Add vinegar, lime juice if you want to make a no cal marinade for chicken, or use the herb/spice mix replica as is.
Basically just get rid of the oil/sugar base of the sauce, and recreate it in either liquid or solid form.

>>42326996
Hmm, that's actually not bad advice.
Maybe I'll try that.

I used to be like this, but after I start IF and got through the first painful week or so I stopped being hungry in the morning. Now I only get hungry when it's time for lunch and a few hours after work. I guess my body "learned" the new times or something.

Guys, I'm switching to calorie counting.

Keto worked, but I swear it fucked up my immune system, and I don't mean I got the keto flu.

It's going to feel good not to be on a meme diet anymore.

>>42328778
you do know nobody actually takes these meme diets seriously, right?

Alright folks, contest is filled up at this time so no more applications for the time being. I'll determine the August brackets on Wednesday and update the document at that point for you all to review. I was toying with the idea of a power bracket for the August 11th bracket match-ups but I may just purge that to keep it uncomplicated.

That aside, everyone who joined recently remember that you're required to weigh-in on Friday or else I gotta give you the boot. No free passes for the first weigh-in, so make sure I get your numbers between 0000 and 2359 CST on Friday, same as the last 4 weeks. If you can't post to the thread, add google drive to your phone and leave a comment on the document which can be found at...

Happy cutting, /fat/s. See ya Wednesday.

>>42328772
I'd have to agree. It is a hell of a lot easier maintaining a great constant deficit while crafting your own food, plus if you batch cook on weekends you have a nice weeks worth of food already made so its not obnoxious anymore trying to cook.

hmm, I could see that

You finally make it to sub 10% bodyfat but now have to deal with loose skin.
A genie appears to give you 1 of the following:

>Free surgery to fix loose skin except nipples and bellybutton look out of place and you have obvious scars from the procedure

or

>Skin it perfectly tight and no stretchmarks except all excess skin has moved to your scrotum, you can never have it removed

Which do you choose?

>>42329035
cringe
thank god I never let myself get THAT fat. obviously I have some stretch marks, but the "looser" skin i have only appears if I am pinching hard at a place like my hips, and it looks wrinkly. Doesn't show up any other way.
If I had to choose though?
>free surgery with botched nipples/bellybutton

>drink juice
>often eat great helpings of vegetables, but only with cheese
>chocolate is my biggest vice, live with grandparents, grandfather is a baker, grandmother always cooking

Please give me some help here I want to lose weight so bad but I can't control myself and I don't know how to stop.
I need help.

>>42329158
>drink juice
The nutrition from juice is laughable, it's pretty much sugar water.

>>42329035
i've gotta assume it's possible to remove excess skin from scrotum through surgery easily, so second option.

Only the fat will ever know this feeling.

A week ago, I weighed 118 kg. In the past week, I lost 2 kg, without going overboard at all. Homemade meals for lunch and dinner, light breakfast and a light snack. 1600-2100 kcals a day (except the day work had cake for quarterly recognition). Some very light exercise.

I haven't felt particularly hungry, but a couple of times I had to stop myself from snacking just because I could.

My long-term goal is to get below 90 kg, but in a bit shorter-term, I think I can get under 110 by the end of August. I know I won't be able to keep up a pace of 2 kg weekly, but 2 kg every 10 days ought to be doable while I'm still starting out.

>>42329158
Not sure how to help, losing weight takes a lot of will power and a wanting to lose the fat. I got my determination from just seeing my gut in the mirror after a shower also my 600 lb Life inspired me a bit.

Once you find the will you will rarely have these cravings. Also i think a little self hate goes a long way.

Just wanted to let you know that you all can make it. I started my diet one year ago. I was 133 kg and i m now down to 107 kg. Im 190 cm which means i m no longer considered obese but "just" overweight. Feels good.

>>42323019
Sent ;^)

A daily reminder that the fatter you are the easier it is to lose weight. It's those few kg in the end that are the hardest. So until you look at yourself in the mirror and like what you see don't be too happy.

Sorry fellahs, we're jam packed for the week.

Check in on Saturday? May have some open slots if some new people fail to show up. There's always at least 1.

I bought a half gallon of ice cream and ate half of it in one night
forgive me fatter for I have sinned

so for the past two weeks I've been doing alternate day fast but in a 2:1 format, so I fat two days, eat normally for 1 then fast 2 days etc etc

does anyone do a similar method? I find 2 days is usually all I can manage with a fast due to social events, office events, and boredom. I stagger it so I stop eating at 4pm, then fast the whole next day and until 4pm the day after that.

>>42329910
fasting is not how you keep weight off my guy

>>42329910
that sounds like a pretty stupid thing to do, do your own research on fasting man...

>>42330041
>>42330047
Oh okay. I'm just getting impatient, I guess. I'll go back to a regular deficit then

>>42329910
Unless you have an absolute self-control, fasting will only make you binge eat.

I lost 39kg already varying between eating only 500kcal, only 1000kcal and fasting for three days.
Usually Friday I go for 2000kcal, then I fast Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Then protein-rich <1000kcal diet.

If you CAN do it, then do it. Not many people manage to handle it.

>>42330238
I don't have any trouble with binge eating anymore, I just have ten more pounds to lose and progress is so slow at this point. Fasting goes pretty well for me if I do it during the work week, because I'm distracted throughout the day.

What are some /fat/ approved snacks?
I miss eating carby crunchy stuff like cheez-its

I'm thinking celery and peanut butter but peanut butter is just as bad as cheez-its

I could always do carrots and celery with a vinaigrette

>>42330314
popcorn is pretty low cal, popped without oil or just a teensy bit of oil. You can buy those 100 calorie bags to pop at home

I'm in the proper thread, now fuck off.

>>42323393
I know this feel Bro. Made so much progress and just keep throwing it away. The cycle needs to end

Does anyone else find themselves starting to be able to manage their "cheating" activities far better?

I fucked up two days ago, but I managed to stick to eating things which, although bad in excess, were not completely awful. I overate cheese and peanut butter. The next day I regretted my actions but was able to move past from that. I had gained about 0.2kg on the scale so I couldn’t have been binging that much because when I've completely fucked up I've shot up by several kilos before. That weight was lost the following day (today).

Makes me not feel like a total fuck-up.

>>42330785
Here and there. This last few days have been terrible though. Got super fucking high, ate a bunch of garbage for a few days, and reset my nofap.

On the upside I did get a pretty nice blowjob, and I'm sure the weight will just bounce back after a few days back on task anyway.

Food for thought.
>The researchers believe that for people with bulimia, food shuts down self-criticism or negative thoughts about the self. Food seems to offer something else to focus on, other than emotional pain, and or anything about themselves which is a source of self-criticism or self-loathing.

I would eat a lot of "negative calorie" foods like cauliflower, broccoli, and celery so that you're not miserable from hunger and might have more success maintaining or starting to lose again. Good luck.

>>42332347
Take care.

>>42332176
Okay

There are three pillars of fitness.
>Diet
Count everything you eat with MFP.
Get a $10 digital food scale and live by it.
Keep it in your bag.
Cook everything you can yourself.
Set a goal for calories, macros and water, keep to it.
>Exercise
Set a routine, and never skip a day.
>Commitment
Don't stop, don't take breaks.
You are doing this for yourself, your future partner and your kids.
Any breaks you take you are stealing time from them.

>>42332347
old man mires are a very accurate as an assessment of making it because they used to live in an era where athleticism was really valued.
Everybody was in top notch shape back then, and thus if by his standards, you awaken an old flame of passion for what he considers physical fitness/your aura or presence as a man, then you've achieved something.

>>42332393
Thanks dude, i am going to follow your advice.

>>42332428
Just remember.

Every day that you skip your diet, that you skip your exercise is a day that fat you wins.

Every day that fat you wins, your wife, your kids and your future self lose at least one.
If you fall off the horse, it's not lost, it's only lose if you give up.

Hey, does anyone here have one of the images floating around about the price of healthy food over the price of junk food?

>>42325812
o what are the best exercises for this?

>>42331807
Luckily you're not too fat to begin with. Calculate your TDEE and subtract 500 to 1,000 calories from that for your daily goal. Of course going to the gym will help too. Once you get to your goal weight or a place where you feel you're skinnyfat then I would start to bulk and lift. Remember you can't gain muscle while cutting, only maintain or lose it and you have to eat a caloric surplus to gain muscle.

Oh and be sure to eat lots of protein, even when cutting so you maintain what muscle you have. But definitely get plenty of protein when you start bulking.
