Right now I'm doing 16:8, I eat from noon to 8pm, usually every 2 hours. I might go to 18:6 soon since I usually just stop eating around 630 or 7 anyways. Some people who do IF recommend Keto, which I think is fine but I dont do because holy fuck I love milk. So I just try to keep my carbs under 20% of my intake

It might help burn fat faster as fewer insulin spikes, it also might increase the production of HGH if you don't eat in the morning.
There are two reasons however that directly affect you and almost anyone could notice.

>You know how you get hungrier when you eat a snack sometimes? Doesn't happen anymore.
>Tired of never feeling completely full while losing weight? Well now you get 1 or 2 large meals instead of tiny ones.

Yeah I know, but I hoped you guys might have some better insight. For example, if I did situps for 15 minutes every day, would that be enough?

just focus on losing fat

My daily intake for potassium, fiber, iron and calcium are pretty awful but if I forced myself to eat more foods dense with these nutrients I'd probably go past my daily target kcals.

>>42517052
Get lite salt (almost 40% potassium in 1/4 tsp) or get salt that is completely potassium.
Throw 2 tbsp flax seeds in your shakes, lots of omega 3s and 10% fiber and 10% iron, a little calcium too.
Fiber one cereal has like 16 g fiber (the cholesterol reducing kind, soluble) and over 50% iron RDA for just 60 calories.

>>42517026

To anons counting macros: How do you do it? Counting calories seems tedious enough, taking macros into account too seems insanely tiring.

>>42516848
No, you eat when you put food into your mouth.

>>42517163

Once you get over the hump of "ugh I gotta start thinking about WHAT I eat in addition to how much" it's not that bad. Try to have a general idea of what you're eating for the day when you get up. After a while you'll be able to know what macros might need attention that day and adjust accordingly.

MFP keeps track of it and my general rules are "try to eat more protein and don't go shit fucking crazy with carbs more than once a week." Works out well enough, I'm 10lbs off of my goal weight.

I lost a bit of weight already and I know I could have lost even more fat but I have this god damn chocolate addiction. I need this chocolate but I don't want to. I tried so much already but I end up binge eating chocolate (and only choclate). What do?

I'm 71 kg now. My ideal dyel weight is 55 or 60. I guess i can feast until i'm 80 kg. And then start fasting.

Kinda sad that i used to also buy 2 meals for myself just 6-8 months ago... At this point i think he weighs at least 60kg more than i do.

I've had it with existential depression and self-loathing. I joined a gym yesterday and fixed myself a proper eating plan.

I'm gonna kill myself at the gym tomorrow. And the next day. And every day after that. I'm about 150lbs overweight and hate life. I'm turning 24 next week. I'm goddamn tired of it all. Fuck this shit. We're all gonna make it, bros.

I can't eat 2.5 pounds of broccoli a day anymore. It's too fucking much. I don't care what scooby says.

Did 40 minutes on an elliptical today plus some lifting, MFP says that the elliptical was around 900~ calories burn. How accurate is it? I try to stay around 1,400 a day, how much should I eat today?

Over the previous two years I've lost about 30 kg and I'm close to entering my desired weight. Is the sticky good for a total retard gym wise?

>>42518259
The YTer, right? I'll check out his vids.

>>42518264
advice noted, will do

>>42517476
Normal, you're not in the sugar rollercoaster anymore, i.e., you don't need carbs to fix hypoglicemia. If you are full but tired look into electrolytes and if they are ok eat a bit more (too much of a deficit may make you sluggish if you don't have a lot of bodyfat available)

>>42517163
>tfw I track micros and mineral intake
Becomes routine.
When you're not a fatass you don't shove food in your mouth all the time, you actually make homemade meals.
I just have cronometer open on my phone and when I get an ingredient I weight it and then log it in.
8 oz of chicken?
Take 10 secs to type the word chicken and type in the amount.
Overall I'm adding at most 5 minutes a day into logging shit in (if that) and as a result I know the amount of calories, fat, protein, fiber, and vitamins I get in a day.

>>42518216
$ is really not an issue mate, only if you stuff yourself with grains/shitty food will keto be more expensive. Getting fatty meat, some frozen veggies and good fats in bulk beats carbs $ wise in most places (also realize you will be eating a lot less weight since fat has more calories/makes you full faster).

>>42517308
I think that's the problem with people having a set goal and trying really hard to get it really fast by fasting and doing other memeshit.
You're preparing yourself for a huge dopamine rush at the end of the finish line instead of changing your life, you will "win" and subsequently stop doing shit.
I've done, you've done it, plenty of people have done it.

Your goal should be to have a healthy lifestyle and look good, don't let your brain fixate on a singular number.

>>42518229
You fucked up my man

I can't do it. I have no willpower. I'm weak and feeble and that's fine since nobody wants me anyway

>>42518446
The hours (for you) and equipment.
Some gyms only have cardio with a few machines, some gyms have little real equipment (only one squat rack is shit).
Look at the gym's website/call and see how much equipment they have, that should be the number one reason to go other than convenient hours.

>>42518462

So 10000 in total, that's around 5 miles (plus the steps i take throughout the day at work i guess) this should be enough cardio for me right? i don't wanna do any high impact stuff because my knees are shit, also i'm 240lbs

Will doing 5 sets instead of 3 sets increase my weight lost?

>>42518965
As Long as it feels good for you and you See Progress keep doing that, if you feel the need for more cardio try cycling (road cyclist here) or swimming. Both should be easy in your knees especially swimming.

>>42518521

>>42518969
Did that for a while after getting rejected, she made a point to keep contacting me and wanting to hang out and we did. I got so many mixed signals from her, I had no idea what she wanted. Now Im just avoiding social media altogether.

>>42518978
I know. To be fair, it was a high school relationship. It's not like we didn't try either, I just ended up being too afraid I guess and by the end of the relationship, she wasn't attractive to me anymore. I should've at least hit it once but oh well.

My best friend is really hot and she more or less admitted she'd have jumped my cock if I'd been even average-mode when we met.

A lot of people would take that as an insult but I've got a thick skin and know what she meant. We've been so close for years, messaging back and forth at all hours pretty much constantly. Deep shit. She's blurted out that she loves me on several occasions.

It's just, I'm 300 fucking pounds and she's only human.

There's so much in life I've missed out on because I kept prioritizing stuffing my face. I don't know where I got all this willpower from - maybe it's because I'm officially in my Late Twenties™ and sheer biology has caused my mind to mature to another tier - but I'm glad I'm doing it. Better late than never.

dont hurt yourself, other than that it literally doesnt matter if you're fat

>>42518827
I hear you, but I can't eat normal again. The reason I'm losing weight is I got diabeetus, so I'll always have to be aware of carbs.

I used to eat pasta every day, so I can't go back to my old habits even if I wanted to (which I don't).

>>42518839
When my blood sugar was high I started exercising immediately. The year before I was told it was perfectly normal and I didn't have to worry about diabetes, so I was pretty shocked. If I had been pre-diabetic, that would've been enough warning for me to change.

Ah well, I'm down 50lbs so it's been a huge benefit to my overall health. Now my blood sugar is normal. I can live like this for the rest of my life, if it keeps me healthy it's not so bad.

Will working harder burn more calories? Think about what you are asking.

But remember, you aren't just losing weight your are losing fat. If you are lifting, you will also be building a little muscle. Don't worry so much about the number on the scale, notice your waist line shrinking.

>>42518215
It all depends on heart rate but I still think it's pretty much impossible to burn 900 calories on an elliptical in 40 minutes. It'd be tough to burn 900 calories in 40 minutes running around a track.

After two months of strictly adhering to 16:8 IF and losing 20 lbs, I went on a three day vacation with my inlaws and ate/drank well over maintenance all three days. Bought a six pack of IPAs when I got home and got through those in a couple of days. Back on track over the last 24 hours. Realistically, I probably only gained a pound of fat, if that. Still sucks that I pretty much reversed a week of progress though.

>>42518571
I have a similar goal anon. I find the only way I lose weight that quickly though is cardio every single day and I have been doing the intermediate fasting thing.

Looking for advice as well though as my weight has not been dropping for awhile.

And you know what, good for him but I kinda like chubby Jillette morr

>>42519859
>not dropping
Damn, that's rough. Have you tried incorporating lifting and HIIT into your routine and cutting carbs (not that I'm a Ketofag, but I think cutting back is what helped me lose 40 pounds)? I hear that cardio isn't that efficient.

>>42519910
that was only the first two weeks, after that he went to a mix of salads and veggie stews

key part to take away is just eating plants really

>>42519793
Some fats, i.e., that in avocados and fish, are great. Some, not so much. But either ways, they seem to pale in comparison to the mounting evidence that sugar is fucking horrible for you and that it actually encourages weight gain (more than the calorie count suggests).

>>42519859
you're consuming too many calories if your weight isn't dropping

help bros. Pls send me your lean vibes. I got thin enough to fit into mediums but im relapsing kinda. I still log all my food but I keep eating a shitton of pizza. I think because I lift I kind of rationalize it at the time like "I should be eating more" but I always eat too much and the macros aren't good.

>>42519910
Yeah, but Jillette wasn't chubby, he was technically obese and lazy.

He, like so many people who are staring at their twilight years after years of hedonism, went full vegan and "spritiual" in hopes of repairing the damage and gaining something to keep them going as they edge closer towards their twilight years.

I'm assuming you are getting enough protein now, right?
Because pea protein, lentils, seitan, and fermented soy have good amounts of protein.

>>42518839
t'was like 2 years ago, i came back home from a shitty call center job and my mom noticed those black scratch marks on my nape (the ones prediabetic-diabetic people have) she didn't say anything but she went to talk with my dad about it, i went to my room and started playing games and eating junk food, after like 30 mins my mom came into my room to tell me that i more than likely was a pre-diabetic, the second she came in to tell me that i had a mouthfull of ho-hos, laying on my bed with dozens of candy wrappers on the floor.

It was just depressing

>>42519793
Research this yourself, there are many split opinions.
Some think sugar is poison while others think certain fats will make you fatter.
Just eat less carbs because they are not filling, that for sure we know.
Other anon talking about healthy fats is right, eat less saturated fat if possible and less omega 6 fat, you want your omega 3:6 ratio to be no worse than 1:3, having the same amount of both is ideal.
Note this isn't necessarily for weightloss but overall health and inflammation.

Like one anon said, I'd suggest trying dark chocolate. I love chocolate and started buying 70%, which has helped me a lot with my cravings and satisfying that need. You can have a pretty nice chunk of chocolate when it's dark.

Try to learn moderation. I know that's just something thin people say, but seriously.

I used to buy bags of mini chocolates, and I could easily eat one or two whole bags in a day.

Now I make one Cadbury chocolate bar last a week. I don't deny myself what I want, I just limit how much of it I have. Yes I'd be better off without it, but I know in a small amount it isn't harmful.

Good thing i don't eat chocolate myself, because at a time i used to do it and the darker it was the more i ate

>>42520466
the last time I bought chocolate was one of those cadburys big taste bars
according to my diary it took me 12 days to eat it

that was in may
don't remember if it was nice or not

How much does the average /fat/izen sleep? I usually get 6, sometimes 8 hours.

>>42520566
I shoot for 7:30, often get 6. I'm naturally a night owl, but since I started exercising I've been waking up at 5 or 5:30 naturally, so I have to force myself into bed earlier.

I don't mind waking up early anymore, I just wish I didn't still want to stay up late now.

Literally sitting in my car browsing 4chan on my phone because I just got done running and my fat fuck body can't handle it

Does it it get easier, lards?

>>42520627
It shouldn't get easier. Once it gets easier, you have to increase the load.

>>42520627
If you don't like it, consider a different exercise. Remember, the best exercise is one you do.

If you do like it but it's difficult, yes it course it'll get easier.

>>42520636
C'mon, that's not great advice for people already struggling. If it's easy increase the load. If it's too difficult, deload. Both are necessary for success.

>>42520699
He's right though.

Working out should never be easy or else you're wanting your time.

>maintenance mode because overdid it and now im spooky
>still in deficit mindset
>1280kcal today
>target was 1800
so should I have a big breakfast tomorrow or just take the loss?

I know this isn't /fat/ related but I've been a denizen here for a while and I value your opinions

>>42520811
He wasn't wrong but his advice was lopsided. It shouldn't be easy, but it shouldn't be hard to the point of being unsustainable.

Your advice is wrong, for people trying to lose weight. Walking 5 miles a day is easy at hell, but it's good enough exercise if you're moving up from a sedentary lifestyle, and it's far better than nothing. This thread isn't about becoming /fit /in the same way the rest of the board is, although that would be ideal. Any exercise is better than none, and if you want to quit because it's too difficult it's better to make it easier than to just quit.

>>42520831
When you're cutting it can be dangerous to cut the next day to make up for going over, because you shouldn't go too low. But if you underate I don't see the harm in eating more the next day, if your goal is maintaining your weight. That will just make up the deficit. It probably isn't a huge deal either way, though.

Drove to Taco Bell at 11pm despite my mom trying to convince me not to; I felt like I couldn't stop myself from going. After that, I decided that I was addicted to food, and I wanted to fight it. Also, I realized I'm supposed to be in the best athletic shape in my early twenties. So far, down more than 40 lbs in about six months; looking at another 15-20 to go, but I've also been lifting so my final goal weight might depend on the amount of muscle I get and how I look and feel.

When I was in 6th grade, my mom made me get rid of my cat and i fell into my first serious depression spell. At the time my mother was just starting to go on a diet, to try and get me out of it she made me join and said that if i had gotten down to a certain weight, she'd get me whatever I wanted. Well of course i wanted my cat back, so i worked super fucking hard and when i almost made it to my goal, she asked me what i had planned. i told her i wanted to have my cat back, but she said that it was a no go. so, i gave up, got depressed and gained weight back; nothing morbidly obese, but still pretty fat. couple of years later i met some really cool friends and they had these really strong idols, so i started to look up to them too. i decided that one day i would be cool like them, but never actually started. some other family shit happened and o got more depressed, and then for some reason i just. stopped feeling depressed? i got all this motivation sometime in march this year so i kinda started then. i don't know where it came from but i'm not really complaining. i've lost ~30 lbs so far.

I understand how people can be be embarrassed but remember that the guy has entirely good intentions.
Acting so surprised at someone losing weight is pretty much a giant "goddamn that was fast, good job", people who compliment genuinely are doing it because they truly want others to feel good about things they actually have succeeded in.

Genuine compliments >>>>fake compliments.
Doing it in front of people (probably was just coincidental in this case) is pretty much bragging for you in front of others, like when you're a teenager and a bro would brag about a friend having a big dick to get him laid.

Lose more weight, don't let yourself down.

Normally aim for 1500 kcal/day, but ate 1600 intentionally since I was doing actual labor most of the day.

Hit 198.8. It's working 1500/day is not a meme.

My long term girlfriend has lost 43.6kg (96 lbs or 6 stone 12 lbs) in the past 12 months.

Her diet consisted of...
>Maximum 1 slice of bread (brown) per day
>Maximum one portion of dairy.
>As much fruit/vegetables as she could stuff her face with
>Splitting every meal into portions by 'the amount of space it takes up on a plate' she had maximum 1/4 Carbs, maximum 1/4 protein, at least 1/2 vegetables.

Sounds like she was keeping track of them to me. Just half-assedly.

>>42522776
as long as you know about the increased risk of organ failure below 18 BMI, knock yourself out

>>42522757
She was a whale, a big fucking turd. She knew it and that's why she done something about it. I couldnt give a fuck if she was back at her original weight but she knows I find her more attractive now and she gets the D more often for it.

>>42522789
Exactly! Half assed tracking with all of the results of religious tracking.

>>42522802
probably not all of the results, we'd need to see progress pictures, she's probably still a pork asteroid, just not a bacon galaxy anymore

My point of the story was to let these fatties know they do not need My fitness pall calorie and macro tracking to see results. She has found it far easier just portioning out the meals with real food. Were her results optimal? Not by a long shot, but they were results none the less. Consistency made easy was what worked.

Does anyone have any clothing/underwear suggestions to prevent chafing? Whenever I go cycling or walking, I end up feeling like my inner thighs have been cut with razors.

Wrap both of your inner thighs with ace bandages.

A decent pair of under ware. Under armour boxers with a long leg such as http://www.underarmour.co.uk/en-gb/mens-ua-original-series-15cm-boxerjock/1277238.html?dwvar_1277238_color=001 does the trick for me.

Whatever works honestly, nothing tastes as good as skinny feels. I feel like a lot of the time people get fat is because of empty calories like soda, I know it was for me, even with all the garbage I used to eat if I drank water instead of soda I wouldn't have turned into bigs mclargehuge, peaked at 233, 149 now.

>>42522872
Also, never ever ever wear cotton underpants for exercise. You may as well stuff some sand paper down there.

>>42522939
Just checked my underwear.
>95% cotton
Thanks. Now I'll know what to do.

What are some good low cal sources of fiber where most of the carbs are fiber? I tried roasting some flax seeds but didn't do a very good job. Plus they aren't very low cal even though all of the carbs in them are fiber.

Any tips on roasting seeds?

>>42522986
>What are some good low cal sources of fiber where most of the carbs are fiber?
Celery, cruciferous vegetables, leafy greens, cucumbers

>Any tips on roasting seeds?
300 F for melon and squash seeds, not sure about flax. I would just toast them in a skillet if I were you.

>>42522997
Thanks anon. I think part of the problem might just be that flax seeds aren't all that great by the selves. Maybe I should try adding a small amount of sea salt or spices to them?

I think I caught my last weigh-in at the most optimal time because I'm 5lbs heavier now
I know, water weight, but it doesn't look good on the chart

Weigh yourself in the morning when you first wake up and take a piss. That's usually your low point in daily fluctuation. You'll get steadier numbers that way.

>>42522500
Within an the hour of 7-8, except one day

Is it bad that for today since i didnt go to gym, i cut 1000c just for today for lack of exercise?

>>42523076
Do this
>>42523075
If that's more or less what you have been doing and you're getting that much variation anyway try adhering to a more strict eating routine to level it out.

Stop lying to yourself, you are a loser just like most people in this sitem

>>42523090
Nah. Its cool. I eat like a repentant monk to compensate for sins sometimes too. Works fine.

>>42523007
Flax seed isn't good by itself, use it to bread chicken or throw it in shakes.
I recommend switching to chia seeds, better omega profile and last longer and taste better.

Artificial sweeteners are basically a dangerous chemical you can eat. The food and drug administration has studied them for many long years and decided they are okay to ingest.

I don't fucking go for it. I'd rather give up sugar than put that shit in my body. Also, artificial stuff tastes fucking weird.

So why say the word "dangerous", all studies point to them not being dangerous.
Also calling a foodstuff chemical is marketing because they are all chemicals.
