key is pushing what a reward is

fries, sauce, pasta -> "normal food"
chips, ice cream, candy -> "special food"

greens, vegetables -> "normal food"
fruit, nuts, yoghurt -> "special food"

im trying to get into the second catagory, once fruit starts becoming your new candy you're on your way

How about you fat faggots just stop the sugar rollercoaster and go keto at least till you're in a healthy weight?

Sugar is addicting, if you are fat the obvious thing to do is cut it completely.

Might suck to browse these threads however might be comforting seeing how dysfunctional most people are with food.
Having a good relationship with your body and food in general is hard, I don't have it as bad as most (I'm normal weight now) but all I do is think about food and my next meal.
I don't even feel hunger anymore.

>>42507623
I don't disagree with that anon, I've been on keto for only 2 weeks to get rid of some stubborn fat.
Just decided to get off it and ate grilled chicken on a piece of bread with swiss cheese.
Swear to god it was like candy, one of the most delicious things I ever ate and it was shit white buns.
Once you respect sugar that much you could easily have yogurt as a desert.
>>
>>42506974
what was the reason you started?
>>
>>42507623
I did, I was giving you a better plan. It is a lot easier to move to better carbs (and portion control) when you're no longer a carb addicted fatty fuck.

I think the dense one is you m8, if you're not at a healthy weight fruit is candy, grains are a bad idea and sugar is poison.

Have you tried keto?

>>42507665
The funny thing is I tried getting of keto a couple of times in this last month (since I started lifting I wanted to be sure to get my noob gains) and don't really liked bread over my usual eggs with coconut oil in the morning.

Also, even 80% dark chocolate tastes sweet, it is outrageous how much your taste buds change.

>>42507740
I know it was only 2 weeks but it was mostly to see how I would feel (I didn't feel bad after just 2 days) and wanted to get a lot of fat for a while since I have a problem eating it.
I'm not comfortable eating the amount of sat fat that it seemed to require (probably a way around this) and I'm too poor to get good fat and protein sources that aren't bacon.
Main reason was I got bad acne with it.

Don't have a sweet tooth so I should be fine, thinking of getting on the natto train (fermented soy, less carbs) and going low carb for a while.
God tier macros and lots of Vitamin K2.

Sat fats being bad for you is mostly a meme (if you really do read the serious researchers behind low carb this gets very clear) and since I'm not doing it long term (only till 15bf) I don't worry about it.

What fats did you use? My grocery bill is a lot cheaper nowadays, I mostly do coconut oil (for anything besides meat) and olive oil/butter for meat/toppings.
>>
>>42507804
I've read the studies and I'm not thoroughly convinced, there needs to be more research on both sat fats and cholesterol for me to treat them like they are healthy.
Not terrified of them but the amount I was getting was RIDICULOUS, coconuts are comfy but are sat fat too.

My fat intake was pretty much coconut milk, sausage, bacon, and olive oil.
I don't like butter and am lactose intolerant so didn't have too many options.
Was thinking about going low carb still though, maybe eating nuts/seeds as my main fat sources (to be on the safe side) and only eating fruit before working out so I can hopefully take advantage of the quick energy.

I'm doing TKD currently - 10g of dextrose before workout and I'm good (also a bit of an endorphine high after lifting which is nice). Fruit is not a good preworkout on keto since fructose goes through your liver first. There is also CKD if you are a more experienced lifter (I can't handle the volume required yet) where you allow carbs once a week.

Just need to remember that there are no really well done studies saying that sat is bad. It's moslty word of mouth and media having to extrapolate shit to sell.

Honestly, just do what you feel is right and works for you. I've read things where you're supposed to watch the amount of naturally occurring sugar and carbs you consume because of it and then I've heard you can have 7-9 servings of fruits and veggies a day and be fine.

>>42508498
If you're 350 lbs. Otherwise, you're going to wreck your shit and cause your body to freak out. You'll lose hair, your nails will become brittle and you're most likely going to feel fatigued, tired and like absolute crap all the time.

O-ok, that sounds much worse than I imagined. What would be a realistic lowest calorie intake then? Sticking to it is not a problem. I'm 6'1 250lb btw.

>>42508498

Yeah, but only if almost all of it is protein and you take a fuckton of vitamins, minerals, fish oil and other essential stuff. I think it would also be wise to do nothing else than lying on the bed or sitting the whole day so you don't pass out.

Fasting for short periods (24-48h) is actually good for you. Resets gut cultures and health, boosts HGH, concentration, etc.

Even fasting for an entire year, under controlled studies, without supplements, and no one had those effects you mentioned.

>>
>>42508816
Thanks anon, I won't let you down. But could you elaborate a bit on the fucking around part?
>>
>>42508861
Depends on your goal.

I do full day fast once a week, and the rest is Intermittent Fasting 20:5.

For fat loss IF is a good technique.
>>
>>42508789
This is a difference, updated pic. I'm trying To be part of the community.
>>
>>42508861
you could lose some weight quickly doing it yes. the issue is that your weight loss needs to be a consequence of a healthier lifestyle, with better diet and exercise. such lifestyle changes take a lot of time and effort (potentially years) to develop and are best worked on slowly, if you want to succeed for the long term. if you try and cheat your way to the goal you'll most likely gain it all back again later because you won't have made the changes you need to make.
>>
>>42508861
Both benefits and consequences.
You will hear differing opinions, maybe start a thread or two about it before just getting advice here.
250 at your height is imo not someone who should do it, it's stressful for the body and you aren't that obese.
At 2 pounds lost a week you could get to a good weight in half a year if you lift and do cardio, why not do what's best for your body?

>>42508870
I didn't mention those effects and no way someone this size should fast for a year.
For a day or two?
Sure, I do it sometimes and I'm at a normal weight now.
A week or two is unneeded, works for some but will make most people fuck up and binge, not good advice for newbies.

>>42508884
Fucking around as in having less motivation for a week, saying "I won't cheat but I won't track calories" which is just justification for cheating.
Not exercising like I should, my body looked like shit when the weight was gone because no muscle.
A strict regime will have you see the results in half my time with a better body, learn from my mistakes and have a cheat MEAL (not a cheat day) every month (still count the calories) and actually run/swim/lift if possible.

>>42508905
If true then dismorphia.
>>
first - Lily Collins is perfect.
second - how do I add things like butter and olive oil to myfitnesspal? Say for example I used butter to fry my eggs, 1tbsp to be exact. Then would I add a 1tbsp butter to my dairy? or would I add like half of that? (because some of it left in pan and such)
>>
anyone here have experience with extended periods of fasting?
>>
>>42508913
>I didn't mention those effects and no way someone this size should fast for a year.

Fasting for a year is a different beast. There are definitely better and safer ways to lose weight. I wouldn't recommend it for sure. IF and one day fasts is the extent of the fasting I would recommends (not to children or pregant women of course).
>>
>>42508913
You think dysmorphia? It does kinda make sense now. I hate myself so much that I regularly have thoughts of committing suicide, I think I'm so ugly that I don't look in mirrors anymore, almost wanting to cry when I do see myself. And I've began to fast for two weeks to lose some fat. Are these valid symptoms? Should I see someone about this?
>>
>>42508937
yeah
it's called sleep
>>
>>42508945
honestly you're not fat at all and you're not even bad looking. if anything you need to gain some weight by working out. it sounds like dysmorphia to me. regardless, suicidal thoughts are always a reason to see a doctor. i'd quit the fast if i were you.
>>
>>42508939
Guy you are responding too and that's what I do, I do IF out of necessity (long hours with no breaks) and occasionally don't eat for a day about once a month.
Fasting longer is imo not a way to get into a healthful habit.

>>42508945
Yes, you can objectively look at your height/weight and see that you are not overweight, you can objectively see that if you were to accurately measure BF% that you are not fat.
Acting like these facts are untrue because your self-esteem is textbook body dismorphia, see a therapist, /fat/ is not for you as these men are often 300+ pounds.
>>
>>42508926
personally i log the entire tbsp when cooking with butter/oil despite what's left over, to be safe. it's pretty much impossible to work out how much is left in the pan.

>>
>>42509104
I googled intermittent fasting and now I'm a bit confused. I thought that it's supposed to be a permanent life change and that you always eat like that. But apparently it's only on a few days of the week, and the rest you eat normally. Why? Wouldn't keeping this regime at all times bring the most benefit?
>>
>>42509142
Who says you can't make it a permanent change? It's not even drastic, you're just timing your meals and going longer without food.

iF is like the default mode of our ancestors. They hunt all day (say 16-20 hrs), and eat at night. It's not even a fast it's like a timing your eating to have an empty stomach as long as possible.
>>
>>42509142
i've never heard of it being done only a few days a week. it can easily be a permanent life change and there's some evidence it's healthier for you. i hear a lot of people with five hour windows in the evening, every day.
>>
>>42509156
To add: most of your fast occurs in your sleep too. It's not a drastic change. We've just been accustomed to grazing all day, always keeping insulin high (which prevents weight loss) which is not what our bodies were made for.

Why does fitness have to be so complicated, /fat/?

>215lbs and 180cm, want to lose fat at a good rate
>take up Alternate Day fasting to half my caloric intake since I read it's effective and doesn't lose muscle mass as bad as water fasts
>cut all garbage from my diet as well just to be sure
>want to burn fat faster if I can and preferably not lose muscle mass, sticky says lifting is good for that
>now the websites and /fit/ are telling me that lifting while fasting is a terrible idea because you can't grow muscles on a major calorie deficit
>look cardio as an alternative but according to sticky and other sources, it actually increases muscle loss and is inferior to lifting for burning fat, and doesn't do shit while in a fasted state

I want to focus on weight loss, but now I don't know what to do. Am I just supposed to not exercise, and wait until I'm Auchwitz mode before I can start eating daily and building muscle? Too much goddamn conflicting information.
>>
>>42507576
I found that if I eat veggies alone, I'm hungry half an hour later even if I eat to the point where I'm unable to force down another spoonful. HOWEVER if I top the veggies with a slice of bread or a piece of meat, my stomach thinks it's full of bread (or meat) and leaves me alone for a while. What a moron haha.

You can't be worrying about muscles when losing weight. That is if you're a fatty, don't worry about muscles. Diet first, and exercise is second. Diet alone will make you lose weight.
>>
>>42509226

What methods?

16:8 (3 meals) is very doable. Then do two 2 meals. Then move onto 20:5, 2 meals. First few days will be hard since your body will not be used to a lower blood sugar.
>>
>>42509216
you're making it a million times more complex with fasting. just eat below your tdee.

it's often said that you can't build muscle while losing fat, but lifting will help minimise the amount of muscle lost if you get decent amounts of protein. cardio is always a good idea, purely for cardiovascular and general health.

>>42509226
the most important thing with IF is sticking to it. 16/8 is usually fine as far as i can tell, though it's not too far off a normal diet, try it and see how you feel.

Yeah I guess. It could take me a year at this caloric deficit to slim down to the 12% bodyfat I want. I have average non-lifter male strength right now, am I going to be a twig by the time this is done?

Stuff like 5:2, 24 hour fast etc.
>20:5
Did you mean 20:4?
I'm just wondering if just doing 16:8 be good enough without the need of moving to more restrictive ones. I think I could maybe squeeze in 18:6 if I tried.

That's the basic premise behind "negative calorie" diets. I'm eating one myself and losing roughly a pound a week even though I'm not strictly complying with the food list or counting calories. This is the book I used to get started, but there are other similar ones.

Anyone else using anti-obesity shakes to cut hard despite only having an 'overweight' BMI? I've used these for a week now and lost 15lbs but I've got another 40 to lose until I am skelly tier

I lift 4 times a week and try to do low intensity cardio on rest days to burn more but I'm so hungry all the time.

Basically my net calories each day are -2500 so if I stick to this schedule I could finally join the skelly club in only 8 weeks instead of 6 months

>>42509340
>24 hour fast

It's ultimately up to you and your lifestyle. One day I will eat one meal a day at noon. One day I will do 20:5. Some days I don't even fast. It's up to you.

I think 16:8 is good enough to keep.

It finally happened. Some Stacy blatantly took pictures of me while laughing. I was doing incline bench at the time. I know I was making faces I guess maybe that was it, I don't know.

I think a more appropriate question is are there non fat ketoers (which there are, search for ketogains and for some ultraman low carbers).

Volek and Phinney seem reasonable lean (not that easy to find good pictures of scientists desu) and Peter Atila does triathlons on keto.

>>42509329
Do lifting either way, there is no reason not to and you won't look like a twig because of noob gains even with a decent caloric deficit.

Also, cardio is highly optional and usually bad for losing weight, specially if you are really heavy (running for instance will be hard on your joints). In the end it will make you hungrier than not doing it, wait to be at a healthy BMI and then add it for the health gains.

Hell of a milestone there bredgewick. I'm totes inspired. We're all gonna make it.

I know I'm being a dick for no reason but you should of just left it. Instead you copped an attitude like a petulant little bitch. You're a big fat fuck riding around on a bicycle, not an athlete or an underdog story. Show the appropriate humility. Cause, you see, what bothers me a little is that I'm hearing about your bike riding again. That's a red flag to me. It tells met that you enjoyed the validation you got last time just a little bit too much. And now you're back for some more of those sweet sweet (you)s and that little tiny dopamine hit that you get every time. And to be completely honest with you my blood relative, if you're being motivated this way that I suspect you are, then you've already failed. This attention is unsustainable. These upbeat feelings are hollow. Abandon both and suffer in silence like a man.
>>
>>42509777
Different anon here, but you're an OK guy. That's legit advice.

Is one of the reasons I'm keeping my weight loss quiet for the most part. I don't think I should really get the recognition until I lose the weight.

But some people need more support than others.
>>
>>42509777
>>42509803
T-that's harsh. But I totally get your point anon. I did in fact enjoy the validation and I thought it would help me not to fail today (which is something still very possible on just a second day after years of neglect). I should definitely rely more on discipline than on motivation. Thanks for opening my eyes.

Don't take it personally. I went from 220 to 160 and I made a lot of mistakes and picked up a lot of baggage on the way.

Suffer in silence, but you don't have to, its better to enjoy your progress with others.

Motivation is fickle but its a good tool.

I believe you can, anorexia is a mental illness and those habits can form in overweight people (of course they won't be overweight for very long now).
Like starving themselves and restricting calories to 400 calories a day so they feel in control.

>>
>>42510330
I'm assuming it depends on mindset, are you trying to be healthy and lose weight or are you obsessed with controlling your diet?
More of a mental thing, I'm a little hesitant when people fast for more than a day here or eat less than 1000 calories since most of us already have undiagnosed eating disorders.
IMO it's far better to fix your relationship with food and eat at a sustainable 1500 calories and learn to eat nutritiously.

It's not just fat families that act like that.

I've had an anorexic in my senpai (she's survived by moving out on her own and raising a kid).

Those hard times stuck with us. Whenever I try to lose weight I get constant argument. I have no choice but to come here because my family is tainted. I would move out but I'm needed at home and my job is only part-time.

IMO these /fat/ threads exist because fatties don't have many to turn to.

hey guys. im not obese, but surely heavy. 6'2' about 220lbs with pretty much no muscle.. i have a big question. should i cut down until i lose the excess fat (i got man boobs and a little bit of a gut, some love handles and like no jawline) or just not worry about cutting and just focus on losing weight any way possible?

I've been doing a bunch of cardio mixed with some light weight lifting (i had a back injury, couldnt work out for 3 months, hence why i gained some weight and fat)

So, should i try to build muscle while dropping weight, or just try to lose weight.

ive been pretty dedicated to my diet, eating oatmeal, egg whites, chicken, coos coos, potatoes and rice pretty much and not going over 1400 calories. eating a lot of fruit and vegetables and drinking a lot of water.

Reposting for night shift /fat/, left is the day after halloween 2016, I weighed 360ish. Took the picture right after my first time on a stationary bike. Right was today right after weight training, I weigh 220. I do IF with clean eating. Still have binge days but I limit them to once a month at the most. I do cardio and weight training and unironically use Rich Pianaisms to get myself hyped. I know i'm still a fat fuck and the next 40lbs is gonna be just as hard as the last 140lbs but i'm gonna make it, we all are gonna make it.

A few suggestions -

1. Learn your macros. You're incredibly carb heavy, is that intentional?

2. Your calories are too low. Yes, there's such a thing. You can send your body into starvation mode, and it will burn fat as slowly as possible, preparing to starve to death. Up it to at least 1700.

3. Don't worry about the whole cutting vs bulking building muscle vs losing fat thing. Yes you should be working out. Do whatever you can. Set small goals. Accomplish them. Set more. The best for fat burning is cardio and lifting heavy.

thank you very much for the all the advice.

>learn your macros, you're incredibly carb heavy, is that intentional

ah fuck, no it's not on purpose. i suck at managing carbs. what should i be eating? i dont eat potatoes very often, is coos coos carb heavy? I stopped eating pasta, and i dont know about chicken (breast). a nutritionist and good friend told me i need to eat rice because i play college baseball and need the energy from it

>your calories are too low
this is something i struggle with. i have a lowkey eating disorder and think if i dont eat anything ill lose the blubber. i probably eat far less than 1400 calories, probably more like 900 calories. ill eat 5 egg whites in the morning with a small, small bowl of oatmeal.. and nothing else until dinner which is likely a single chicken breast, kale, fruit, and rice or coos coos.

>Don't worry about the whole cutting vs bulking building muscle vs losing fat thing. Yes you should be working out. Do whatever you can. Set small goals. Accomplish them. Set more. The best for fat burning is cardio and lifting heavy.

>>42511802
There are a million ways to diet. The two most common/reliable are low carb high fat, and high fat low carb. I'm assuming you're pretty close to high carb low fat, but that won't scale well adding 700 calories (you're already over your carb threshold at 1k.) Try lean meats (chicken breast, ground turkey are best.) Cook with vegetables such as asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, etc. Some high carb items: bread, tortillas, potatoes, pasta, rice, corn, beans, etc. Don't trust "low carb" labels - one low carb tortilla could be half your carb allotment for the day.

Get 6 meals per day if possible. I know fasting feels like progress - it's counter productive. You need to continually tell your body there's food around by eating small quantities. The less consistent your eating, the more likely your body is to begin retaining fat. Starving yourself is counter productive.

Starvation mode is a meme, cutting at 1400 is perfectly healthy.
Cutting low burns both muscle and fat faster.
All studies point toward IF as being better at burning fat, at least marginally.
Insulin spikes cause fat storage.
IF only has one, maybe two insulin spikes a day, while 6 meals causes a rollercoaster of sugar.
t. someone who has done IF for 6+ months on 1500 calories and someone who has also lost weight by eating lots of meals at 2000.
Guess which one kept me more satiated and allowed me to keep my strength up?

If you want to actually do something, buy the Starting Strength book and follow the program 3 days a week to start building muscle, while continuing to walk every day.

Also, if you haven't been, calculate your new TDEE. You may be able to lower your deficit, depending on how big your deficit is now.

Weights and cardio. At 220 you should be able to do some decent work without limitations. Just stay away from running maybe.So basically this anon is right imo >>42512274

Let me tell you this as someone with a 17< BMI. You are still going to feel fat after you hit your desired weight goal, and after that, you'll keep on going. It is not about weight anymore, it is about an addiction; the addiction to become thinner. The reason why you think you look 'fat' is that your body does not have any fucking muscle whatsoever. And, I know how you feel; "muh muscles make you look fat", but that isn't going to be the case since it takes a fuckload of time to become so muscular.

I went from 108KG to ~70KG.

I've been hovering between ~68-72KG for the last year. I'll break through this plateau soon I'm sure of it.

You're going to get indigestion and overload your liver. Seriously... "saving room" doesn't work like that. I tried doing the same when I was fasting. And as much as wanted to push myself to "make-up" for the decadent food I felt like I missed... I just couldn't. Even with a stupid principle motivating me to eat more... I couldn't.

Eat to satiety. Eat quality and not quantity. A buffet is terrible because you only come out on top of your eat like a buffalo. Spend your money elsewhere.

You'll get through it. Just keep fighting. I was in your shoes once. It does get better, but you have to keep trying.

I found lifting and it changed my life. Instead of watching to make sure my calories were under 500/day, spending an hour on an elliptical or treadmill 7 days/week, and waking up every day hating my body, I began to get excited about what my body was capable of and loved the changes lifting produced. I found eating the right type/amount of macros caused greater and more positive changes to my body and I have gradually learned to love it. It has taken a long time though. 9 years now. I'm not saying I didn't ever relapse, and sometimes I still find myself fighting that mindset when I take too much time off from the gym. But I have found something my body can do that makes me proud, and I want to nourish that.

I know it's hard, and it will be difficult for a while. But you will pull through. Encourage activities that make you proud to have the body you have.

If you need to ask if you are making it, you aren't motivated enough.

If people tell you unprompted you are making it, that's when you are making it.

It's hard to communicate with the staff at my gym, so when someone leaves an English message like this it feels good, man.

How much cardio... Is too much cardio would you say?

Currently I'm swimming 5-6 days a week (30-45 minutes a time), running (3 miles- takes me around 30 minutes as I'm still stupidly slow) 5-6 days a week and then going for a two hour cycle once a week.

Half of me says this is more than enough, and I'm likely already overdoing it as I'm slowly extending my milage running wise- I should be back to a 6 mile run by the end of September. However, the other half of me is mildly freaking out that it just isn't enough. I'm eating between 1.2-1.4k calories a day (using a food scale), decided I'd weigh myself monthly so not really stood on the scales since my last weigh in (I've massively upped my exercise for the last few weeks since the last weigh in).

I've got around 30kg to loose in total really, however I also go back to Uni in september, and know I'll have a lot less time for exercise, so want to try and get as high as milage as possible for then so I can start doing 3/4 1-2 hour runs a week as oppose to 5/6 half an hour runs.

I'm cutting, realistically how bad is it that I'm extremely satisfied that I'm starting to see collar bones/ hip bones?
When I lay down I can see ribs.

At work I find myself touching my collar bones and hip bones often.
I like sucking up all the air in my lungs while looking in the mirror and see ribs/ hollow between boobs.

How unhealthy is this? I have no friends to really talk about these things.

A regular customer at work asked if I lost weight and it made my day.

120lbs 5'1. Not sure how I'm seeing bone at those stats but I am

Do you guys actually count calories? I'm doing 40 hours fast and 8 hours eat. I just try to get a simple average-sized meals with all the macros and not too much junk.

You don't have to actually count them, but you have to be able to give a good estimate, and counting helps in that.

2 fried eggs

2 peaches, about 50-60 g of almonds, 3-4 ricecakes (about 100 kcal), 4 eggs scrambled with 2 tomatos and about 100g of brined cheese

Maybe start by cutting to lowfat milk in coffee for next time? Or switch to green tea to get your caffeine boost? I like the green tea with lemon, fuck all calories and does me for caffeine. Ive never been into coffee though so I guess the switch would be hard.
>>
>>42515486
I shouldn't really give dieting advice though, my breakfast and lunch is a shake with lowfat milk. 220cal each.
>>
>>42515474
because you ate 1200 calories for lunch and now have to skip dinner even though you already skipped breakfast.

Remove that shit and you'd probably cut those calories in half with little lost in terms of satiation
>>
Just put a bar of dark chocolate between 2 cookies and ate it. Fucking end me. I'll just skip dinner.

>>42515506
Nah I didn't eat all that in lunch, I had most of it as snacks. My lunch is the 4 eggs, cheese and tomatoes which is about 600 kcal. My dinner is usually 4.5% fat yogurt 400g (270 kcal)
>>
>>42515529

>>42515469

>>42515536
But I'm hungry between meals and my lunch is already pretty big volume wise
>>
>>42515582
Just an opinion, but I find a couple hundred calories in snacks to be less filling than a couple hundred extra calories added into a meal.

Assuming your snacks were 600 calories, if you removed them you could add an entire pound of chicken to any of your meals. And it'd be way better for you in terms of protein.
>>
>>42515466
Oh I didn't add the tart after all.

Rather have two extra eggs on that and it's only 150 cals.
