A few days back I finally broke through the 155 threshold through a calorie deficit. It was a wonderful surprise. And then I've been ruining things. Eating a lot. Requesting stupid shit...like doughnuts. As of now I haven't gained anything. Fool's luck, really.

It has made me realize that I really can be a thoughtless beast in the moment.

>>42578351
You just killed your next woosh bro.

I'm feeling cravings really bad right now.

I want to drive down the street and get some taco bell.

Or fry up a couple sausages that I've got in the fridge.

>>42578393

Go take those sausages and toss them.

Yo /fat/ long timer lurker never posted before.
I recently saw a concert and ever since then I've been crazy motivated and I've been controlling my cravings and been on top of everything I need to do. I'm still fat as fuck, but it's been a solid month of being completely on track and I feel amazing. I'm an actor/musician and seeing that concert made me absolutely realize that I wouldn't be able to perform a show like that, at the state I'm in which really caused a shift for me.
I don't know why I'm really sharing this, none of you should specifically care, but I guess I wanted to share this joy with someone, and who better than the anonymous /fat/ friends that might relate.
Here's hoping we all make it friends. One day.

Good get m8.

I'm gonna get back on the wagon and start losing weight again. I was on /fat/ a few month's back but I dropped it after I had pizza with friends. I told myself that it would just be a week off, and then it spiraled out of control. Luckily I only gained back a few of the pounds that I did lose, but now I plan on actually getting down to an appropriate weight, not only for the sake of my health, but for the sake of my confidence, my appearance, and hopefully to get a GF.

I was 220 when I started, I am currently 205, and my goal is currently 180. I will do this. I need to.

320 today, same as yesterday, v5lbs from start.

3.9mi on treadmill today, 53mi total. Finished Week 5 Day 3 of C25K, which is 20 minutes of jogging without walking, and did it twice. Pretty happy with that.

>>42577786
DJ KHALEEEEED

Day 9 of cut and I'm still bloated all of the time. Three general reasons (from what I've gathered) that one would be bloated:
- ate too much
- body is hoarding water due to not drinking enough
- need to BM
I've been drinking 1 to 1.5 gallons of water per day so that's not that issue. I haven't been overeating (1500 cals or less per day). I think the problem is I'm not BMing. Anybody here experience the same thing? Should I increase my fiber intake?

>>42577811
How do you decide when to cheat? Especially if you're doing IF/OMAD? Everytime I think I want to break and cheat, I get so scared everything will go off the rails and all that slow progress with be killed in less than a week.

>>42579234
Stop eating salt, nigger

>>42579263
Daily recommendations are 3k-5k generally and I've been consistently eating less than 3k. My highest this week was 3500k. Anyways I'm drinking a metric ton of water per day so that shouldn't be the problem.

>Should I increase my fiber intake?
How much are you eating already? When's the last time you pooped? Are you regular? Fiber could help, or it might not. I eat high fiber and I still get water retention if I go too heavy on carbs or salt.

Are there real fat loss benefits of drinking a lot of water?
I am currently drinking 5 liters a day. I am feeling great, and I seem to stay longer without water if needed, but I doesn't seem to make me lose more fat.

>>42579421
weight loss is calories in calories out.
Water keeps you full, your body working nicely, and prevents water retention.

>>42579421

In general it's good for you so don't worry about whether it makes you lose fat

>>42579421
You have to replace most if not all of your other liquid drinks with water.

Why?
Because a large soda has the same amount of calories as a medium sized meal for an adult sized man.

>>42579421
It helps me "feel full" which helps me fight cravings, have a craving drink water, it helps me avoid soda and juice and kool-aid (and whatever). Not direct benefits maybe but it makes a good wingman.

>>42579436
>>42579443
>>42579446
Thanks thanks and thanks.
So its EZ. Feel better with a lot of water and I can't drink (much) of shit drinks because I am full of water.

I don't know man, I've been sucking dudes off all day. The problem is after swallowing about 30 loads or so, I'm easily at 3,000 calories, but I had to work for each one.

It's easier to lose weight if you're heavier, you can't just make those blanket statements.

Also you should aim to make a lifestyle change, you can't keep up a lifestyle where you cut 7000 calories each week.

checked.

I'm onto day four of a prolonged water fast. Feeling pretty good in all honesty. Taking it week by week and my eventual goal is 28 days. I got multivitamins, a buttload of water, and a lot of fat to consume. Walking almost 3 miles a day and I'm doing light muscle exercises.

>inb4 "stop!!!! you'll fugging die!!! you'll gain it back!!!!"

nope. I'm a fat fuck so it would take a long time to go into starvation and eat muscle. Plus you only gain it back if you return to old eating habits. You don't just magically gain 100 pounds the second you put food in your mouth, lol. I'm not breaking my fast with "well deserved" pizza or some shit. I got money and research down for planned healthy meals. A large part of the reason I'm doing this is because of all the shills who ree out over this. Man I feel good.

I'm taking 7+ pills a day under the close watch of my internist, rheumatologist, gynecologist, and cardiologist. I have no choice but to lose weight now.

Imagine being so insecure and miserable that you have to try and make others feel the pain you do. Then you call other people a waste of air. Unironically kill yourself.

>>42581031
Sure, do things your own way, but your way is statistically more prone to failure by rebounding, so shitting on other people for doing things slower isn't really reasonable.

When I crave something (which to be fair is rare these days), I give it 48 hours. Still want it after 48 hours? Then I make a way to fit it into my calorie goal/make a less calorie dense version.

Burgers can be easily done- just go for half the bun, a lean ground beef if you want to make your own burger and go easy on the toppings.

At least this way I know any cravings I have aren't just on a whim. Perhaps if you still fancy the burger tomorrow then hell- make it fit?

My girlfriend is trying to lose weight but I'm trying to think what body type she Is, considering 5"3 and 163 lbs, she has a hourglass frame but has a gut but not a huge ass gut so I tell her to either do abs crunch workout session or more cardio, apparently she wants to look sexy and cute and hot for me since she's a submissive type. Should she focus more on cardio or weight lifting?

Also post sexy animu midriff

>>42581646
>a gut but not a huge ass gut so I tell her to either do abs crunch workout session
MEME ALERT MEME ALERT

Spot reduction is bullshit. Read the sticky. Combine both lifting and cardio for best results. Lifting makes your body burn more calories while you do nothing over the next couple days. Cardio burns them immediately but you need to do it for long periods at high intensity to start seeing real results.

Anyway, I reiterate, read the fucking sticky. Also let me fuck your gf.

You just gotta hate yourself enough until you're truly ready to sacrifice things for change.

That's why fat acceptance is so fucking infuriating.

Oats, Tuna, Eggs.

It's my holy trinity of not being a fat cunt.

>>42581878

I would also like to know about this. Started a diet yesterday, usually have frozen pies/pizza/baked beans for dinner. Stuff I can just pop in the oven and take out when its done and have a meal ready and not have to fuck around with pots and pans and chopping boards and shit. Can I still do that as long as I cut down the amount?

Canned beans and peas are good (but sodium...)

If you don't want to do dishes, get yourself an adequate container and eat your food out of disposable freezer bags lodged into the container (1-2 cent a piece). This works for oats etc. Good homeless tip

Another OK option is mashed potato powder (if you like mashed potatoes). Doesn't have to be cooked, just put water and powder in a bag.

Get some plain wholegrain bread for a snack, don't put shit on it. Also a few nuts and seeds perhaps

For vegetables, sauerkraut is good, or spinach/kale, but canned kale is pretty disgusting compared to fresh. You can just eat raw vegetables ofc.
Otherwise you got tomatoes and shit, you probably know

You don't need to be a cook to put frozen veggies into a microwave though.

Canned fish and meat is alright

Generally with subsiding on canned food, enjoy your over 9000 mg of sodium, literally

So I began my day like any other /fat/; I was sitting in class and realized very suddenly how much time I was not burning calories. I lifted my arms and lowered them and figured that must cost some energy. So I did it again, and again. But I realized a flaw, with my arms fully extended, I was bound to hit someone, so I bent them inward and flapped them like a chicken. Then, like an epiphany, I realized another silly mistake that I was making: talking nonstop for 1 hour burns around 40-50 calories according to some random website, and the louder you are the more calories you burn. While clucking as hard and loud as I could, I flapped my arms all day at school, I flapped them going to the grocery store, I flapped them all the way home. I'm going to a funeral tomorrow, and I'm going to be getting exercise through the whole thing thanks to my genius idea. I'm clucking and flapping right now as I type!

If you are heavier you may need more of certain things, if you are smaller you may need less. And anyway, that shit varies a lot.

guys I'm not fat I'm just here for the repeating digits

Posted this on QTDDTOT, but maybe I belong here.

Hey, new to /fit/. I started an 80/20 Paleo Diet last week, weighed in today 5 lbs lighter already. Today I started a light strength training routine, I'm just trying to build up a base at home so I have the confidence to actually go to the gym in September when I get the rest of my student loans and can afford it. I had a few questions though.

1.I'm 6'1 and I'm seeing all these guys on here who are only 180 lbs, but even in high school when I was a pillhead skelly I was like 190. I have really broad shoulders so should that factor into my weight goals? I feel like I'd look really lean at 200, I'm 231 right now and just chubby, not hugely fat.

2. Are tic-tacs acceptable on an intermittent fast, or should I just get a pack of gum?

3. Am I gonna make it bros?

Down to 302 this morning, from around 325ish. Hope I get under 300 this week!

>>42582454
What's your routine?

>>42580727
AHAHAHAHAHH
> delusion intensifies

>>42582493
30 body weight squats.
20 push ups.
20 walking lunges.
20 dumbbell rows (using 20 lb dumbell)
30 second plank.
30 jumping Jacks.
Repeat for 3 rounds.

I stole it from that Nerdfitness site but increased some of the numbers, my big problem right now is my form for squats. I shattered my ankle in high school and it never healed right, I have a slight limp and it makes me walk out-toed like a duck. Been working on forcing myself to walk normal but it's hell on my ankle, don't know if I should be trying to force it or just accept that I'm going to waddle the rest of my life no matter how fit I get.

>>42580966
I usually have this problem too. One way to overcome it, it's to do a more extreme diet, instead of 500 cal deficit a day, do 1000, this way if you overeat one time, it doesn't get you to maintenance.
And, I don't know why, but in extreme diets, I can sometimes control myself more.
You need to try different methods if one is not working for you: maybe intermittent fasting, or other diets.

>>42582572

Okay. I think it's time to start getting therapy. Pretty sure my addiction issues run deeper than my love of fried chicken and ben and jerry's.

Niggas got any suggestion for how to make chicken more filling? for whatever reason, i can eat 500g of grilled chicken and still not feel full at all.

should i add anything to it? inject it with tissues to feel more full with fibre? should i meditate while eating it? what do?

>>42583996
what are you eating it with? fill up on leafy vegetables.

since no one is responding, i'd like to redirect you to a reddit thread i saw a few days ago

im too lazy to save and upload his picutres, but if you look at the curves he has week(s) (see from day 13 to 21) where his weight barely moves and spikes around the place

bottomline: keep doing what you doing, it takes time, weight spikes up and down, especially when training. you will eventually lose the weight, i have experienced this myself.

keep at it, use your motivation of "good periods" for "stalling periods"

>>42584103
Look I'm not some hedonistic, undisciplined retard lardass. i just wanted some suggestions about eating healthy while still maintaining the mental gains of feeling "full"

>>42584176
yea spinach is what i do honestly. if you prefer it you can go that route instead of broccoli

when i'm doing low carb i eat about 3 cans of spinach a day. it's cheap and has plenty of fiber. also can melt in cheese if you have the calories for it, and it tastes really good.

High spinach intake also depletes your body of zinc just like very high intake of phytic acid.

>In a study of 12 men fed a diet containing fiber in fruits and vegetables, mean zinc balance was negative and significantly lower than that on a low fiber diet. The higher fiber diet included spinach, which is high in oxalic acid. In a second study, zinc balance was not negative when cauliflower, which is low in oxalic acid, replaced the spinach in the higher fiber diet. In a third study, zinc balance was negative and significantly lower on the higher fiber diet including spinach than on a low fiber diet including spinach, or on a higher fiber diet without spinach. The adverse effect of the higher fiber diet containing spinach was observed during the fourth week of the study, but not during the third week.

>>42584299
No
And it also varies between different people and depending on what your body is adapted to at a given point in time. Obviously it is well-established that protein is very satiating per calorie and that calorie density, total volume and fiber are additional factors, so the whole protein + vegetables thing is a good starting point. But there are many other factors that come into play. And unless you are intentionally doing keto you need to get enough carbs to get some glucose and glycogen going. There are definitely studies that find better long-term satiety with beans than isolated proteins. But overall it's more about the entire diet and not individual meals.

The reason this shit doesn't work is because you aren't learning to eat normally. Once you're done eating literally nothing you'll go back to eating garbage. A normal diet is important because not only do you lose weight, you learn to eat moderately and healthy. Don't say I didn't tell you so when it doesn't work.

how do y'all handle hunger? ive been down to a good 15% bf once in my life but now ive gotten back to like 30 but i dont seem to give a shit. I know what i need to do to lose weight but once hunger sets in i go to stuff myself with a "i dont give a shit attitude"
maybe i need a goal. what do you even lose weight for? why sit through the hunger?

>>42583996
Feeling full is not your goal. Once you learn to slow down and eat until you're not hungry, you'll be way better off. And if you like mushrooms they are great filler

hey guys,

Been losing weight just by dieting, however when I started exercise, I stopped losing weight because I start eating a whole lot more.

Should I stick to dieting until I'm closer to my goal weight?

Are there any legit low carb snacks out there or am I actually forced to eat hardboiled eggs to meet my caloric intake?

>>42585482
Have you tried doing just cardio?
I always get hungrier than my expenditure when I lift heavy, but I am less hungry than my expenditure when I do cardio

>>42585504
I did lifting mainly with a little bit of cardio, so I'll give just cardio a go for a bit, thanks

>>42585493
Yeah, find a muffin recipe and replace the
-flour with vital wheat gluten
-sugar or fruit with zero calorie sweetener
-milk with almond milk
and you have something with very low carbs and a ton of protein that actually tastes somewhat similar to regular junk food. Problem is gluten isn't easy to find at brick and mortar stores because of all the snowflakes pretending they're gluten intolerant.

today marks the first week since i started counting calories in march that i only lost a single lb in a week. what worries me is that i'm already eating at a pretty low deficit, current weight is 256, i'm 5'6 and have been eating between 1550-1800 daily, while mostly averaging 1670~.
3.20 309.6
4.24 292.8
5.22 282.5
(bought new scale) 6.26 274.7
7.24 264
8.21 255
what do i do now? i'm actually sacred of plateauing or hitting a wall especially when i shouldn't be.
my plans right now are to continue counting calories this week as it may just be a misreading, holding onto water weight maybe?, then recalculating my TDEE next monday.

>>42585337
Good for you anon. Keep at it.

Asian stores sometimes have big sacks of it though. The Chinese don't care about our silly allergy fads

I'm afraid to start bulking after losing so much weight, I feel like I'm gonna overshoot calories and put on too much fat instead of muscle. It's not like my abs are even visible as-is.

I bet you're the type of person who says "just stop taking heroin, it's that easy!"

and I know what you're thinking right now
>heroin =/= food
which just kinda proves my point if you think about it for more than 2 seconds
broad strokes are okay for generalisations, but worthless to the individual

and maybe I am depressed, what does that matter? I'm still trying. My efforts aren't invalid just because other people try harder than me.

That was a maudlin post. I just finished work and I'm pissed off and tired.

Just accept you are in full control and stop trying to say you are out of control.

You make choices everyday to do it and everytime you do you make it easier to binge.

>tfw 96 hour cheat day

>>42586101
you're conflating simple with easy
you're not incorrect but it's not completely honest either

if I was in full control then I would be a greek god billionaire shagging 10/10's by now
we all have issues, this is /fat/ after all
nobody said to themselves "I will make myself fat because I love being miserable"

I know how to stop being fat, I know what decisions to make, but I don't always make them, because I'm (get this...) only human
if being human is just an excuse, then we're all doomed

now I'm gonna go walk the dog then go to bed

>>42586061
though spaghetti isn't that bad is it?
I ate it two days in a row this week, guess it depends on what you put in the sauce too.
also its really freezer friendly if you got any leftovers

>>42586061
You can always space it off have it leverage another day.

Ex. Eat normal Breakfast and Dinner but for lunch eat spaghetti..

I mean if you made too much be smart about eating it.

I don't even know if I feel apathetic and tired all the time because I'm depressed and don't get enough sleep, or just because I'm so fat.

>>42584459
He would have gone up to 5'11 if it weren't for the fact that's his height. People always consider 1 inch below their height to be the cut off point. Unless of course they're like 6'2 or up and undeniably not a manlet.

>>42584340
Great job m8. Just be careful not to mistake people being friendly for hitting on you. Obviously you'll have to judge each situation individually but generally people will treat you better in general when you're not a walking sack of lard. Especially your peers. Good job making the change while still in high school too. You still have time!

Whats the quickest way for me to reduce my blood pressure? Currently 142 / 88

I don't do any cardio, work at an office desk. I vape and I eat a lot of food with preservatives in it.

Best way to cut it down to like 120/80 or bettr?

the main reason i want to lose weight is cause being fat makes you sweat way too fucking much and its uncomfortable

>>42586828
I think he means if you want to join by January you need to start arrangements earlier. It isn't automatic.

>>42586867
Do cardio and lose weight. I had high blood pressure for years, ended up fixing it completely in 2 months or so.

>>42586880
I guess I'll start the process whenever I stop looking so fat.

>>42586828
>>42586880
This guy gets it. You're not joining anything until you're past MEPS and in DEP. You probably won't even ship till the end of next year.

What's a good calorie tracker for Android?

Is MFP the best when it comes to food selection? Or is there something more specialized out there?

New fatbro here. Currently learning things to take the first step to not hating my body.
Pic unrelated.

Not sure what to focus on for primarily weight loss though. Do I start building muscle first, before I start trying to lose fat? Or the other way around? I'm currently unable to do even one sit up and only like 15 or so push ups, for reference I guess.

I know it's not good to cut corners, but knowing my personality I'd get burnt out trying to count calories. Is it cool if I just make my diet healthier in general? Rather than getting meticulous.

Also very, very much this >>42586879
Doesn't help that I'm hairy either, really keeps the smell there. Disgusting.

>eating a pound and a half of sweet watermelon with chili powder

>>42587020
Specialized how?

MFP easily has the biggest user base and therefore has the biggest database.

>>42587026
Read the OP and sticky. Diet is most important, count calories at eat under TDEE.

Begin lifting. You won't build a ton of muscle but you will build some. You want to cut fat first, then once you weight is low you can focus more on muscle.

>>42587026
BOTH NIGGA

REDUCE THAT FOOD INTAKE AND GET ON THAT EXERCISE GAME

STRAIGHT SAYING, YOU CAN'T WORK OUT ENOUGH TO LOSE WEIGHT IF YOU DON'T REDUCE CALORIES, CERTAINLY NOT AT YOUR ACTIVITY LEVEL

A NIGGA DON'T GOTTA STARVE, BUT CHANGE IS CHANGE, AND YOU GOTTA WORK TO MAKE IT HAPPEN

>>42585493
Plenty of nuts are low carb

I am 5'11" though.

>>42587061
it's not curated though, there's a lot of inaccurate information

cronometer comes highly recommended

>>42587061
Like it has dietitian approved calories or with lots of official alories from brands

>>42587071
>Diet is most important, count calories at eat under TDEE.
Is this one of those do or die situations, where it's gotta be perfect or you'll never make progress?

>You want to cut fat first, then once you weight is low you can focus more on muscle.
I guess getting rid of a bit of fat first makes it easier to actually use your weak muscles to lift yourself.

>>42587088
I appreciate the tips, but you don't gotta yell.

>CERTAINLY NOT AT YOUR ACTIVITY LEVEL
The issue is that I'm currently a lazy shit without an activity level, hence why I wanna make a change.
So diet really is the main player for weight loss, huh? I guess I've got a lot of reading ahead of me.
Cheers for the tips, fellas.

>20 years old
>5'9

I know 5'9 is probably just above manlet status, but god I wish I was taller. My uncles on the maternal side of the family supposedly both didn't hit growth spurts until they were graduating college, but they went from like 5'5 to 6'2. I'm already in the middle of that so I don't expect another growth spurt.

>>42587171
Interface looks shit. Is the data good?

>>42587157
That's my point buddy

Can I add a cheat day in which I'm still in my TDEE but eat plain trash?

>>42587157
So you're proving his point then. He's saying only people who are 5'11 would consider that the lowest height you could be and not be a manlet. If you were 6 feet tall you would say 5'11 is king of manlets. If you were 5'10 you would say 5'9 is king manlets.

>>42587209
5'9 isn't a manlet, not in the real world anyway. But You're pretty much average or right below. A growth spurt in college sounds hard to believe though, especially that late into college. But you never know. From what I've read it's technically possible to hit one as late as like 27 although that is quite rare.

I'm having a hard time cooking and making the food I do cook taste good. So for the most part I've been doing "dirty keto". Example - today I had eggs and sausage for breakfast, an avocado, and then for dinner I had two double stacks from Wendys with no bun and no ketchup. It's like cheating without cheating. Anyways, got any advice? Just keep griding on that cooking level?

>>42587529
Yes. The more you cook the better you'll get at it, man.

Closer to 6 ft than 5'11 2bh. Just shy a few millimeters. Taller than 6 foot when wearing any shoes. :^)
