>>733067650content from the base game can get cut and sold as dlc. the base game can be altered to make it feel worse to play unless you buy the dlc.
I mean theoretically this is true. If you eat less than your RDA, then you will lose weight, regardless of whether or not you exercise.You really should exercise though, as dieting like that will reduce muscle mass so consider eating things with more protein and some weight training. Your body will thank you in the mirror in 6 months.
I’ve been vaguely paying attention to calories recently because I’ve been eating a lot and working out. I think I’m still only getting like 1200-1500
Anyone else just getting tired of unhealthy foods in general? I still eat it every now and then but I have completely stopped gorging myself and I no longer feel tempted to buy it at the store
>>733068229It's simply too inconvenient for me to get it, and delivery will always be an an expensive 0/10 experience. that's probably the only reason i'm not a fat fuck
>>733068294post arm
It's true. I don't have to buy any DLC. I also don't have to buy any games. So I'll keep my money and devs can go find a different audience if they don't wanna stop cutting content to sell at a premium.
>>733068294Nta but delivery is such a hype killer. Almost any time I tried something new it was slop and at least a third more expensive than necessary, I guess on the bright side I know which restaurants I'll never visit.
>>733067650>don't buy unhealthy food>other people do>your favourite restaurant starts shifting their menu more and more towards unhealthy food>just don't buy unhealthy food lol
>>733068343I wonder if the anons making all these "I'm NOT BUYING, Y'HEAR ME DEVS? NOOOOT BUUYYIIING! LISTEN, NO NO, NO BUY, ME? NO BUY, NOT BUYING, OKAY!? NOT. BUYING!!!!!!!!!!1!!11one!" posts actually believe devs are reading them and weeping gently to themselves, whispering "I-I'm so sorry, anon kun, I'll do better"Cause sometimes it feels that way
>>733068395Seethe
>>733068343>I also don't have to buy any games.But that's...economic terrorism...!
>>733067938Wow this is all completely new information to me that I have never ever heard before. You must be a genius. How did you become so wise in the field of fitness?
>>733067938Fat people should just learn to fast, eating 'A but not B' takes more willpower than just vegging out in front of the TV like they always do only without eating. Who cares if they lose muscle?
>>733067650DLCs introduces new achievements, giving me ma 76% completion instead of 100%
>>733067650If I don't eat calories I will die, but if I eat calories I will be fat.
>>733068415What
>>733068501It takes a long time to die from not eating calories
>>733068440Kek that image is hilarious.>"The emperor looks amazing in his new clothes."
>>733068229>living and working alone so I'm able to manage my meals and eat only about 1300 kcals a day>family comes over for holiday or whatever so we eat out>grease galore>feel bloated and sick
>>733068714You can get electrolytes without calories tho, no? Or almost no calories at least.I've only gone three or four days without eating but I never got any severe pains. Just the normal kind of hunger pain/discomfort the first day
>>733067650
thinspo anons need to post tummy now
>>733068843I don't post pics here anymore I have a boyfriend now
>>733068809Man, it's like going to a fairly upscale restaurant with the gang but that one poorfag friend tags along. Like bro, if you're gonna come with despite knowing better, don't expect me to pay for your food.
>>733068965SLUT
>>733068843I would, if there any anon from Sweden here to reel in
>>733069156>food analogy>it's not even remotely applicableDamn, just like in the old times when this pic was taken. Thanks for the nostalgia.Also insert the old son of dob comic here, I'm too lazy to dig it up.
You're right I can just pirate the DLC & also the game itself. Unless you mean multiplayer, in which case it either splits up the playerbase, which is a problem, or it's in the game regardless of whether I pay for it in which case it's already downloaded onto my hard drive and I'm being charged for content I already have on my computer, which is a problem.
>>733067938Dieting by itself is also just way too vulnerable to too many points of failure. It often requires a total overhaul of eating habits that have been ingrained for years, it combines losing one of your joys with the inherent suckitude of dieting to make you feel even more miserable, and while this is taking months or even years to get to your target weight, you're still being viewed by society as a fat piece of shit that isn't doing anything. It's just all so discouraging and depressing, and anyone that's a fat piece of shit usually wasn't doing well mentally to begin with.Meanwhile, exercising? You can tack it on to whatever you want, and yet doing it usually leads you to naturally avoiding sugary crap anyways. Once you get into the swing of things, exercising is a joy in itself, being a rewarding activity that clears your head and refreshes the body. Even if you aren't losing fat quickly, you also can feel improvements that better carry you through your remaining time with your fat, but what especially helps is that fellow gym goers are often very social and will see and respect your journey to lose weight.
>>733067650>could be cut content from the base game (or could outright be on the disc), and it often feels like the game isn't complete without it>some DLC is shit that SHOULD be in the base game like finally adding skills to a barebones class, or finally adding some decent staves for the mage class>some games are coded and/or designed to expect all the DLCs (namely The Sims games, a weird number weeb porn games, and recently Monster Hunter Wilds), and not owning the DLCs makes the game worse>cosmetic shit is overpriced despite the minimal effort to make them, all to pull in whales because they'll buy it all anyway. Paid cosmetic shit also usually means the stock selection of costumes will either suck or not exist>BONUS: Korean MMOs without a vanity system making you look like a complete dork unless you buy (rent) costumes from the store>pay to win players fucking you over because you didn't buy enough DLC>games not letting you play MP with players who don't have the same exact set of DLC as you>MP with friends sucks if you don't have their DLC since DLC shit tends to be cooler/better than vanilla content and they'll just rush past you with powercrept mounts and equipment>mods can often require most/all DLCs to even install (side note: CS:S for Garry's Mod haunted me for years.)Gotta give a shoutout to League of Maidens, a "pretend MMO" that isn't an MMO but pretends to be. It has about 2/3rds of my complaints up there.The biggest complaint is that all the NSFW content is paywalled, so like, you get garbage costumes and there's a ton of settings for labia thickness and nipple shape only for nudity to be paywalled too so you can't even see what settings you're changing and how they look.>>733068395We do know devs visit here regularly. Indie devs 100%, though it's a mixed bag for the big devs, they tend to lean more towards siccing some shitty viral marketing firm on /v/ instead.I'm too lazy to look up the sources for this, sowwy.
>>733067938>I mean theoretically this is trueWHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN THEORETICALLY???????it's basic fucking science, you mongoloid. Calorie deficit = weight loss.
>>733068229I just get sick from it. Chocolates, chips, fast food, processed meats, etc. I feel ill afterwards. And it this point buying ready made shit has become expensive so I just buy a steak and a cucumber and tomato and just eat a steak with a salad. Easy food just tastes bad to me now.
>>733069928>taking months or even years to get to your target weightI lost 60 pounds in 4 months on a keto diet. And only the first week of adjusting sucked, after that it was pretty easy to maintain.
>>733067650When you have shit like Asura's Wrath where the true ending is locked behind DLC
>>733069928My issue is exercising on a cut feels like complete ass
>>733067650>JRPG>enemies' level increases faster than the player's between consecutive dungeons>DLC items that increase your level if you don't want to spend an hour grinding every 5 hours of normal gameplayIt's an issue, because they do it deliberately to make you buy it.
Completionists. People that look for treasure chests in SNES FF2 when they have more than enough potions. Just because increasing odds is the nature of people who didn't survive without it.
>>733067650I'm sorry, are you still paying for games?
>>733068501it's simple anon, you just have to eat enough calories to live but not enough to get fat..how many is that?well uhh, it's different for everyone...yeah I know you have to sit and do math to figure it out..I know high calorie processed foods tend to be cheaper..yeah I know time and effort to cook is also a factor when you're expected to wage slave in order to even survive..yeah I know medical situations can make it even more complicated and difficult..but it's easy okay, it's so simple it's just calories in calories out haha just don't eat burger idiot!it's your fault you live in a world of goyslop wageslaving!!!
>>733067650Because pic related and publishers have shown they have no qualms demanding fans buy overpriced shit dlc no one asked for if they want more real content later, effectively holding franchises hostage to squeeze every last penny out of a fanbase. See Total War and Mega Man Legends for examples.I know what you are, and which street you shit in. The lootfilter and tabs are so barebones they should've been part of a free update and the warlock is a shoehorned, overpriced cashgrab with zero justification in the lore. Furthermore, the lootfilter is the lootfilter is borderline useless because it lacks the most baseline of features.
>>733070931the easy solution is to just eat less, you don't have to eat betterthe only argument against this is addiction and mental illness
>>733071287>the only argument against this is addiction and mental illnesseveryone is addicted and mentally ill genius, it came with your fucking, living in a world ran by billionaire pedophiles!!!(I'm just bullshitting some frustrations I do try my best and I've been losing weight we must lift ourselves from the oppression of fast fashion and processed sugars for those who are on top of this pyramid have abandoned those bellow....)
>>733067938>if you eat less than you don't get fatno shit sherlock
>>733068460Anon why are you being sarcastic to a post that there is no reason to be sarcastic against? I mean at least target the innacurate use of "theoretically" if you're going to do that.
>>733068395I don't care if they are or not. I state my thoughts and that's it. No investment.
>>733071485I'm not trying to downplay the addiction or mental illness part. Like, I don't imagine most people want to be overweight. It just requires a lot of mental fortitude, kind of like quitting smoking or drinking.
>>733071287>you don't have to eat betterYes and no. Cutting out sugar makes a huge difference, but the 2-3 weeks it takes before you stop getting cravings is hell on earth.
>>733070931>just don't eat burger idiot
>>733068395I've learned from reddit and 4chan you can bitch and moan all you want, there's a hoard of people who will pay any amount for any crap and the real metric of success to these companies is seeing what kind of crap they can get away with, which as the years go on is more and more apparently.
>Food analogy DLC is an issue cause in a majority of cases if should've been in the base game. Expansion packs were ok cause they added a significant amount, but not enough to warrant their own game.
>>733069928Yeah, I've been told by many mental health professionals with a big confident gleaming grins on their faces that statistically exercising is the best thing you can do and is basically the cure for 99% of mental health problems. Just doing it makes you feel better and more confident in general due to endorphin release.Which is grand unless you already feel like a universally rejected piece of shit, and quickly find out that this thing that makes literally everyone happier actually has the opposite effect for me. I didn't do it half assed either, I ran on a treadmill for half hour straight daily, did some other cardio for the other half, then did full on weight routines. Throughout it all I rumenated on my failues even more than normal, felt judged by everyone and felt like complete and utter shit and broke down multiple times.I fucking hate this automatic shutdown response. It ruined my life before it even started and I can't get rid of it whatever I do. It makes me inhuman to the point that even things that are supposed to work simply don't. Fucking hopeless.
>>733071676Yeah, cutting out sugar also helps a lot with craving feelings. But you could technically try to stimulate your sugar addiction with zero sugar sodas. But that still risks you eating normal sugary food as well. And comes with other problems like teeth issues.It is kind of crazy how super sugary food tastes disgusting once you get out of that pit.
>>73307093155 pounds of rice or potatoes is much much cheaper than Double Quarter Pounder Cheese Jalapeno MCSauce Tortilla with Fries and McMuffin every day.
>>733068460There are ton of people that will tell fatties to "just eat less" but if they were to do that and change nothing else they would arguably look worse than before (but healthier)
>>733068229>had fast food (Mcdonalds) for the first time in a long time>felt like shit the whole day, physicallyNot to imply that I eat healthy, but man am I in no rush to try some burger joint any time soon. Video games.
>>733070931>I know high calorie processed foods tend to be cheaper..The lowest calorie foods are dirt cheap desu a pound of salad fixins is like $2. Poor people are fat and poor because they are retarded
>>733071931Yeah no conventional methods are touching automatic shutdown, especially if it's trauma/autism based.All you can do is go back right to where it started, the brain stem, and slowly retrain it. Chances are yours probably comes from the presence of people and prolonged isolation (It normally does), so you need to teach that stupid instinct that being around them is indeed safe.Go to places with people, not with the intention to socialize, just to be present, just kind of exist there casually, and eventually your brain will realize that you can be visible without any disaster. Eventually something (or multiple) things will click and your behaviour around people will change. That is when you can start doing the exercise, CBT etc and get benefeits.Don't expect it to be quick, and it will at least initially feel absolutely awful and draining, but eventually, if you do this, you will see a difference. Good luck, anon.
>>733072242Honestly with all those carbs you're probably better of with the McDonalds.
>Just say noIt's a hard habit to break. Throughout the week I don't snack at all but lord help me when I do groceries on friday after work. It's like I tell myself beforehand "I'm not gonna buy a bag of chips and cookies." and the moment I enter the store I turn into a zombie and just grab the same shit I always do.
>>733067720Examples?
>>733072709Do you like berries? You can pretty much snack on as many of those as you want and be fine.
>>733067650Why do fatfags have zero self control?
>>733067650I never had anything against DLCs precisely because I never bought any.However, in two games did I feel that DLC was harmful.In Europa Universalis IV, I couldn't migrate with my tribe even though this was one of the missions. That's because without the Eldorado DLC, the button to migrate doesn't exist in the HUD, LOL.In Cities Skylines, I couldn't play the scenarios, only the sandbox mode, because the scenarios are also behind a DLC, even though they are supposedly available in the game, but there is an arbitrary barrier preventing you from playing without paying.These were my two negative experiences with DLCs, both in games published by Paradox, so I simply stopped buying games from these guys and I never had any problems again.
>>733072747You're not arguing, kill yourself.
>>733067650Turns out fat fucks are full of excuses as well as food
>>733072850Girls like that do it specifically to make their boobs and ass bigger.I literally made the mistake of asking a 11 year old girl at breakfast club why she eats so much goddamn cereal casually and she literally said to make her boobs bigger with a gigantic grin on her face. Fucking hell I wish I didn't ask.
>>733072838I might try that. Any in particular?
>>733072976Lol, you should have educated her, retard. An 11-year-old girl doesn't know shit. I knew one who thought she would never have boobs because she was 11, and her stupid mother agreed and started giving her hormones, something totally unnecessary.
>>733067720>content from the base game can get cut and sold as dlc.To play devil's advocate Fallout and SFxT are literally the only examples of that.
>>733072747Mass effect 3 released with day one DLC that was fully integrated into the main game on release, merely needed unlocking.
>>733067938>theoretically
>>733073104No wrong answer. Though I go for raspberries, blueberries, blackberries or cloudberries depending on how I feel.
>>733072571this but for me it's chips I legit felt terrible the last time I bought a bag of chips and eat it to completionThese days when I want to buy snacks I'd go for onions bars or crackers.
>>733072936Is this how you always react when someone asks you to back up a claim?
>>733073119Yeah I mean this girl DID have boobs, so I guess maybe it was working to a degree, or at least she was lead to believe it did. I could picture her getting obese with the way she eats though. I mean I'm all for breakfast but she had like 5 bowls of cereal filled to the brim with milk. That can't be healthy even if she is trying to do it to "fill out".I mean she probably was saying it just just embarras me. We did kind of a "bantering friend" dynamic, so it was probably just a joke, but I am concerned for her health nowadays.
Some DLC can make the game worse, sure. And cutting the base game to sell as DLC is pure cancer.
>>733072747The true ending to Asura's Wrath is DLC
>>733067720>>733072747>>733073289Yeah was about to say day-2 dlc as well, biggest fucking scam in the industry and mass effect 3 launched in fucking 2012.
Americans be eating 3 big Macs every meal and driving everywhere then wonder why am I so fat must be the seed oil and fluoride in tap water
>>733068229It's hilarious how it took me only 1 year to go from a shapeless semi-fatso to athletic just by cutting sugary slop and fats, landwhales have no excuse
>>733068229Used to go to McDonald's every week but I got both sick of it + their quality dropped so fucking much over the last decade that every time someone asks me along I just start vomiting internally.It used to be just unhealthy food, but now it's disgusting unhealthy food.
>>733068470You don't even lose that much muscle when fasting anyway. Your body produces special hormones to keep your muscle mass when fasting/starving. Evolution baby.
>>733068229Fast food died long time ago
>>733075139seed oil is genuine poison tho
>>733068229kinda, but my family tends to get some slop with corn syrup from time to time and I can't resist once it is at home
>>733068470Muscle is the largest consumer of energy so if you intend to lose fat without starving yourself, loss of muscle is very undesirable.
>>733075765source?
>>733070931Pic is 84.88 CAD, take away the energy drinks and it's closer to 70 bucks. This is food for the week. It's not science to build a sustainable grocery list:>protein(meat)>fiber(veggies)>carbs(wheat/grains)>vitamins(berries/supplements)>waterThat's all you need. Buy different seasonings and proteins from week to week and you're fine.
>>733068393go to a different restaurant.
I like how people on here act like they are fit & in good shape while i know 99% of posters on /v/ are fat slops
>>733067938>>733068229>all these anons itt living healthy, social lives, being disgusted by fast foods and working outI just play video games whenever I get the chance and eat whatever shit is left in my fridge. If I can't find anything I feel like I just order or go out and grab some fast food, it's pretty nice.
>>7330759328 items for 70 dollars? no way
>>733075765Every single person i've seen saying seed oil is bad was a schizo with no papers to back up their claimsImo seed oil gets a bad rep because it's the cheapest oil so it's used for deep frying ultraprocessed slop. So when people cut seed oil they stop eating fast food and get healthier. It wouldn't matter if it was switched with tallow, olive oil or clarified butter because fast food is still fast food
>>733076007Yes Canada is a hellhole when it comes to groceriesYou could shave off even more money by buying bulk rice/unbutchered meat/raw veggies but I don't have space for that
>>733075945Fat people rarely exist outside a select few countries like america mexico uk etc. even chuds are skinny in most countries
