Tell me about your weight loss methods. All schemes are welcome here, all voices should be heard. Pretending to be a tough guy that eats 12 burgers a day while saying 6'5" and 145lbs doesn't impress me so don't even try.For me, it's just a simple matter of tracking calories and observing CICO. Obviously observing a calorie boundary means you eat different foods (who can fuckin afford mayonnaise?), but the beauty of CICO is you can still eat whatever you want, no foods are 'banned'. The true non-retard diet.
just dont be fat. simple as.
>>21853473good advice, everyone should do this
A few things worked for me, I never counted calories or followed a strict diet though. Smaller portions, like 80% of what I think will satiate me. Don't starve yourself but you need less food than you think and you need to let go of the feeling that you need to feel really full after a meal.Drinking lots of water with the meal and also in general.Let the pan(s) stay in the kitchen instead of bringing them to dining room.Don't buy things that you think you shouldn't eat. I don't think it's sustainable to deny yourself forever of things you enjoy that are "bad", but (for me at least) I would also eat mediocre snacks, that were not that enjoyable, just because they were there in the house.
>>21853453stop eating garbage. cook all your own food.
>>21853453Drink a bunch of vodka or gin and go to bed without dinnerPut your dinner on a plate in the microwave and have it for breakfastBuy lemons and limes and squeeze juice into ice water instead of other drinksTake up smoking, hand-roll your own, don't smoke tailor-mades, as untreated tobacco as you can find and high-quality papersThat or a pipeWalk outside when you smoke, you will not only get exercise, you will smell nice and not like a fiend Make your own food as much as possibleTake the stairsWear boots, the extra weight makes a differenceTurn down the heatIf you're trying for kids and your wife pops positive but it turns out she has cancer and needs to have an emergency hysterectomy you might start spontaneously vomitingThat'll do itOh and hospital food in general will ruin your appetite
Just eat less
one thing that helped was something I noticed one day. I was feeling very hunger so I for up to cook, and halfway through cooking I suddenly realized I didn't feel hungry at all anymore. Just starting to cook was enough to stop feeling hungry.It's all in your mind. A human can easily go days without food. Hunger is a lie your body tells to your mind because it's greedy for calories
Literally eating less. I averaged 1000 calories a day and lost a bunch of weight. Count calories and don't cheat. 50cal of creamer in your morning coffee adds up when you have 4 coffees. Diets are just different ways of reducing calories. Eating n-500 calories of your normal eating pattern will lose you more weight than n-0 calories of keto.After a week of being hungry you just get used to less food. There were some days I could go on 700 calories if I'm home all day and felt fine.
>>21853453I used to be real fat, from 12 or so to my early 30's. Filling up on vegetables is the key in my opinion. Learn to love a giant plate of broccoli and almonds and you can stuff yourself silly and shed pounds. Another thing I did a lot thrn but now sometimes still is I love spaghetti, so I will cook 1/2 or 1/3 spaghetti noodles and the rest thin sliced cabbage. All mixed up with sauce it's very much like eating a bowl of regular spaghetti, but you can eat twice as much for practically the same calorie intake. If you want a snack, eat a carrot or an apple. If you don't feel like that then you're not really hungry, just bored and want to distract with food.
>>21853453I eat 500-1000 cals a day except for a few days a week when I fast for 24 hours except for water and cigarettes and 8 beers. It's basically the end stage alcoholic diet. I only do it when I accidentally gain 5-10 pounds and want to drop it immediately.
Lost 15kg/33lbs with low carb without even counting calories. Turns out that eating meat keeps you satiated for longer and you're not hungry all the time so you crave snacking and bullshit. But that's just me.
>>21853627meat has fewer calories than carbs.so you did CICO in a retarded meme way, but you were still doing it. congrats, truly.
>>21853637>in a retarded meme wayWhat is retarded about it? I'd rather do that then count calories like a faggot and have cravings all the time and feel hungry at 11pm.
>>21853494It's amazing how few people understand this simple concept. When there's no food to burn in the stomach, the body burns off the stored fat energy instead.
>>21853641Any 'low-X' or 'X-maxxing' diet is a retarded meme. All you need is CICO. Eat less than you expend, it's that simple. Eat your veggies.
>>21853643I'll do whatever fits me best, so fuck off with your retarded acronyms.
>>21853643So you recommend CICO-maxxing?
>>21853453Just not eating garbage has always worked fine for me.Dieters be like>oh no I can't eat that chicken breast, I already used up my calorie budget for the day on donuts and pizza>maybe I'll just have a diet soda instead>wow I'm down to 340lb!
>>21853651>I'll do whatever fits me bestand what might that be?i'm guessing it won't be the "eat less and move more" diet, since it somehow never is
>>21853683What is your problem? Fuck off.
>>21853453Go to /fit/. Read the sticky.
The Japanese (who are clearly superior to us) eat only until 80% full, and their meals always consist of: rice, miso soup, and small portions of three different vegetable-heavy dishes.
>>21853453I lift weights, hike and run because weight loss is worthless without the energy boost of being stronger.
>>21853574Interesting tip on the spaghetti, if that’s your broccoli and almonds it actually looks pretty good
I pick up heavy thing then put it back down a lot also run
>>21853453eat less, move more
>>21853699>/fit/that’s great and all but I’m trying to be healthier, not suck cock professionally
>>21853453You consume less calories per day then you burn being alive+physical activity. Repeat this single step until desired weight. This isn't rocket surgery.
>>21853695yep, called it
>>21853453I lost over 100 pounds and only gained 8 back. What I did was skip breakfast and bike for hours until noon. When it was time for “lunch” I had 2 scoops of whey isolate powder mixed with water, then I would bike around town for another 4 hours. Dinners were simple and small. Minimal refined carbs. Very rarely got seconds, and if I did, that meant riding the bike until it was time to get ready for bed. I lost it all in 5 months. It was hell, but if you have the will power, it is possible. You’ll get used to being depressed and feeling like shit after the first two weeks.
>>21855451what about this so called starvation mode where your body holds onto fat and you don't lose weight cause your body thinks it's starving
>>21855455Myth. I have some skeletor images from a few years back when some anon did a 24 day water fast. I'd have to go digging for them but dude basically clocked his weight loss each day with zero exercise. Mathed out. It is just mom science.
>>21853453You can lose weight eating nothing but burgers and fries as long as you have a calorie deficit. I like volume eating. Eat 6 and a half pounds of high quality loam and grass and you feel full all day.
