you are mentaly ill, seek help

>no mention of calories

You've got to count.

Lowball your TDEE and calories expended. Highball your calorie intake. Weigh weekly, same day, same time. Be ruthless with yourself. Report back to us in six months.

You have to actually exercise in order to burn calories fat ass

christ, you want results in 4 days
give it a month with discipline and real calorie counting and if you have lost any weight you might just be an android.

haven't*

this is the truth, even with food scales and highballing calories I really only lose if I'm under 1800 kcals. my lowball TDEE is 2600

>>42460133
no you don't. 95% of it is diet. exersize can burn calories, so if you don't eat any extra and add exersize, you will lose weight. it takes a fair amount of time to burn off an extra 300 calories a day.

Lmao dude if youre not counting calories it doesn't matter if you eat a meal a day.

Not OP, but what is the best choice to count your calories? An app?

>>42462005
Myfitnesspal. It's an app that pretty much does all the work for you.

>>42462005
The "best" is to weight your food with a kitchen scale and look at the nutritional info of each food you eat, but it takes more time.

I've heard people here use myfitnesspal.

Thank you bro, you really helped this skeleton on the beginning of his journey, I had already tried two different apps yesterday and they were fucking shite

I use Fat Secret on iOS.

I'm 6'0 and I started at 240 and am currently 223. Gottta count your calories, man. It took a lot of fooling around at first... I don't think my TDEE is 2700 with moderate activity or even 2400 which is what most sites told me. I think its closer to 2100. I mostly sit around all day if it isn't gym day so I suppose that is accurate. Just don't give up and keeping trying until you figure out your expenditure.

>>42462058
this is how to figure out the calories of food: scale

>apple is 52 cal. per 100g
>find an apple, take out the core, weigh it
>it weighs 125g
>1.25 * 52 = 65 cal.
>weigh some ground beef
>350g
>112g = 200 for 90% lean beef
>350g * 200 cal./112g = 625 cal.

it's middle school algebra dudes come on!

Or, you know, just use an app like myfitnesspal and there is no need to calculate anything.

Just search the food you are eating and enter the weight. Done.

High or lowball if you have to guess (going out to eat) depending on your goals. Weightloss = highball, weight gain = lowball.

For me it worked better to write down what I ate in a journal, now I can pretty much do it in my head since I eat a lot of the same foods every day
