I'm corpulent
to the nigga who said "why dont you go for a walk for 30-60 min and eat normal tomorrow"i cant be bothered, also its freezing cold here
Why trully do I feel guilty after eating pizza?I shouldn't, I just eat 2 slices.
>>74739931i diet on frozen california pizza kitchen lol. its ulillillia tier but ill degrease them and eat them everyday.
>>74739931I've noticed sometimes I feel guilty just for enjoying food when it's perfectly healthy and within my deficitHave to be mindful to nip that in the budLingering shame about old fatass behaviors even if they don't apply anymore
>>74739931I had two slices last night when visiting parents and had a stomach ache afterwards. No good eh
I will have bread todayI know I shouldn'tI will just fast tomorrow
>>74739931Pizza tastes good but since I've started tracking protein I can't enjoy pizza since it's mostly just bread and always want more than I allow myself
Im back, Back up a few pounds since my last check in but this is fine. Lost good weight last time eating super clean but fucked up my asshole by shitting out rocks for 6mths. The only way I found to fix it was go back to eating slop for a little while. So it begs the question, what will I do different this time round. I was an all or nothing kinda guy, eat slop every day and put on 150bs to eating chicken potato and veg until I lost 100lbs. Does /fat/ have any solid diet theories. I will probably do either>Eat clean for 6 days a week and plan a decent cheat meal one night a week to help keep things moving>Eater clean but leave in bread and orange juice and eat fattier meats like chicken thigh and fattier ground beef, full cream milk>Add in a fiber supplement daily to help keep things moving.Ill still use MFP and track my cals as it helps me stay on mission.
>>74740039get some keto bread. few carbs, a bunch of protein, some fat, but not saturated.I'm using Carbonaut Plant-Based Seeded Bread nowadays, it's good for sandwich, salmon toasts, or to dip into a partially cooked egg, or just into some olive oil.So it's a lot like bread. Just less guilty.
>>74740071Good optionI hope I can find it
>>74740056I like to stay strict for 4 weeks and then do a cheat meal. I take 2-4 weeks off at maintenence every 10 weeks. Big tip is if youre going nuts with hunger, go 200 calories over your limit using filling healthy foods like fruits or turkey sandwiches. Try to keep that to a minimim, but dont feel bad when it happens. It will stave off the urge to binge.
Is coffee good for you? No, I really mean it. I drank a large cup of black coffee after waking up for two days in a row and achieved absurd results that I have major doubts over and which continued into tonight. I couldn't even sleep last night, it took until after 5 AM, my mind was on high alert and I don't even have any major stressors in my life.
>>74740230Some people are just really sensitive to caffeine It's not bad for you as long as you don't overdo it (they say 400ml max give or take), but it is known to cause anxiety if you're not used to it or have it and then try to relax instead of channeling it into high focus or energy
>>74739899Tell me straight, how much more to go for visible abs?
>>747402715kg.
>>74739899> went to the gym tonight> they closed earlyWhy does the universe keep stealing my gains?
>>74740271They're already showing somewhat but the paunch is still there. Unfortunate fat distribution. It can be fixed though.
>>74739915why cant you be bothered? Whose been stealing your mental gains?https://wallhaven.cc/w/575wx9
>>74740230Coffee is an amazing nootropic, but you need to work your way up to dangerously awesome levels.Start with small amounts in the morning, and make sure you can sleep easily at night before bumping it up.I drink 16oz of black coffee every morning ( ~= 200mg of caffeine), it's probably near the optimal range for most people, plus or minus 8oz, but you should start with less than half of that.
>>74740290>>74740262Yeah im starting to not trust the caffeine bros. Been taking 200mg worth of caffeine in the form of these for a few weeks before workouts and I end up waking up with a fast heart rate and ive been fatigued as fuck. I can drink 400mg of caffeine in coffee with no adverse effects.
>>74740262>>74740290I used to drink soft drinks daily, but have almost entirely given them up in the past 5 weeks, with a handful of exceptions for special occasions. I never had issues with coffee in the past even though I would notice its effects compared to something like Pepsi. But even so, I wouldn't expect to see such a radical difference in output. I feel like I can't trust my calorie counter while exercising anymore because the leaps are far too large. I can't just go from struggling to average 11.5 calories a minute for an hour to averaging 14.6 calories a minute for two hours without anywhere near as much difficulty. My improvement before this was far more gradual.
>>74740056>fucked up my asshole by shitting out rocks for 6mthsLol I'm starting to get hemorrhoids now tooNeed to go but fiber pills, thought I was getting enough from vegetables but the butthole doesn't lie
>>74740303In the form of *these
>>74740308go buy*
Bros.. changing my diet and working out has made me extremely horny and I want a girlfriend so bad, and there's no prostitutes where I live either, at least not that I know of and I don't drink so I can't go to bars ahhhhh
>>74740310I'm not really familiar with preworkout rituals, but I guess you could just drink a cup of joe before your workouts, if you think you need the caffeine. Or is that too boring?
>>74740303Make bulletproof coffee by adding butter or MCT oils.
>>74740325Black coffee is 0 calories, 0 sugar, and can accelerate your metabolism and digestion. Not eating before working out will cause your body to prioritize existing fat for energy rather than the food you've been digesting. If you drink black coffee about an hour before working out, you can burn your fat with an accelerated metabolism and without the drawbacks of eating shortly before a workout like cramps.
Remember to get on Ozempic if you are serious about losing weight.
>>74740364fuck off with your pharma slop
If I ate one of these would I fuck myself over tremendously
>>74740319Go to church and find Jesus.
>>74740344I never understood the appeal.My coffee has 20g of collagen peptides, 5g of creatine and 10g of cocoa powder, just as God intended.I should come up with a cool name for this brew.>>74740375Boil a cup of water, open the ramen packaging, throw away the filthy pasta, and pour the salt flavorings in the cup of water. There. All the flavor, none of the sins.
Fatty ContestHellYeah_Brother110.3 kg178 cmI’m happy, brothers. I am lifting heavy weights with a PPLx program, doing cardio for 30-35 mins after lifting, tracking my calories and macros.

>>74740290i love this nootropic preworkout. works great with an espresso. maybe its placebo, but it definitely improves my mood when i take it.
>>74740378From my understanding, the appeal is to keep you full and energized by keeping you in a ketogenic state. Mostly used for intermittent fasters, which I assume most of /fat/ is doing.
>>74740394Denounce china as an illegitimate state, chink
>>74740380Congrats man. For me i'm doing the opposite, running 30 minutes then doing SS for 45-60minutes. I haven't been tracking my calories, I really should be, but I had to 'reset' my metabolism so I can get past this plateau which required me to eat more than what I was originally cutting at 1300kcal.

>>74740425 Thanks brother. If I do cardio first it affects my lifts. 1300 kcal seems too low what’s your TDEE?
>>74740458That’s a witch potion brother, don’t let her fool you.
wagmialso, the world would be a better place if he had gotten them all
>>74740475It says here>The estimated TDEE or body weight maintenance energy requirement is 3,621 Calories per day.And for extreme weight loss it's>2,621 kcal dailyMaybe I should recount my calories, because today I definitely ate bigger than normal since I picked up a roast chicken. But when I was counting my calories last week it was around 1300kcal, and that included small stuff like cooking methods + additional fats like olive oil and butter if I used it.
Man, I ate 600 calories of snacks yesterday. I could've had an extra 500-600 kcal deficit if I didn't. Now my deficit was only about 500 kcal.
>>74740515Imagine your deficit if you didn't eat anything.
>>74740515>I could've had an extra 500-600 kcal deficit if I didn't.but you would have been hungrier and maybe snapped and eaten a non-controlled mealjust plan ahead, if your plan involves snacks and it's working for you that's fine, but if these are unplanned snacks you're being a retard
>>74740498Yeah I’d bump it to at least 1800 kcal.
>>747405431800kcal? Shit. That's gonna be tough. I guess I can look into drinking my calories.

>>74740528I rarely feel hungry. I do notice decreased performance sometimes when I don't eat though. I usually eat out of habit, because it's available or because it feels good to eat. If delicious snacks are around then I eventually gravitate towards eating them. And these days I'm around snack bowls all day.
>>74740516I would lose muscle mass faster.
>>74740694Wonder why evolution was retarded enough to make us store fat if it's not going to use it in periods of famine and instead it's going to handicap us from getting our next meal by making us lose muscle instead. Oh wait, evolution isn't retarded, it's you who are. We don't lose muscle any quicker on a fast than we do on a caloric restriction, retard.
So what's the deal with polyunsaturated fats. I see people going feral arguing about this shit. I ask because I've been doing keto and fasting to lose weight and have been eating almost exclusively saturated fat and monounsaturated fat (meat and olive oil) and I don't want to put myself at higher risk of heart disease.
>>74740744Like virtually anything else it doesn't really matter unless you eat excessive amounts of it

ok so i am probably retarded but hear me outmy biggest issue with calorie counting (that stims from lack discipline) is that i eat when im board. so im thinking about buy tictac's as something that basically tricks my brain into "see you ate while bored" without adding too many calories

Fatties, I have a goal of eating 1800 cal. a day, but some days fall short and don't feel hungry or want to eat more. Sometimes I think this is great, less calories in; sometimes I think it is bad, and it might be causing some sort of adverse effect. More conventional dieting wisdom seems to favour this view, too. Any insights? Is less calories better, or should I aim for my calorie reduction target? 180kg/171cm (KareemSaid3000 on fattycontest)
>>74741493If you don't want to eat then don't eat
>>74741493>worrying about eating too little at 180kg
>>74741477>one chance at life>not born as a lesbian nun
>>74741493Worry about not eating when you arn't the size of a house
>>74741493>sometimes I think it is bad, and it might be causing some sort of adverse effect.this is your fatty brain asking for more fat>More conventional dieting wisdom seems to favour this view, too.most conventional wisdom has to also be aimed at moms in their 50s, it's more dangerous to continue being a fucking pig even for one second
>>74741493You might feel tired, but it shouldn't hurt you. Going under 1800 sometimes is perfectly fine, as long as you're eating something.
>>74741479have never tried either of those, my neighbor had a bridge go out and they game me like a months worth of pre-made chicken salads and i havent tried them because i didnt like lettuce the last time i tried them (20 years ago)

>>74741493>171cm>1800 canThat seems rather high, consider reducing it even more.
My meals have been 6oz of protein + a 90 calorie cup of yogurt. I have this 1-3 times a day, sometimes just once a day, sometimes 2, rarely 3. And that's it for meals. No snacks, but a fiber supplement so I can actually shit.So far I've been able to subsist on that, but should I take a multivitamin? I don't imagine just meat and yogurt is enough for nutrition.

Wish this fever was over. Hate eating on maintenance, when I can't even taste shit.
Think I might accidentally be on keto. Will piss on the strips when they get here to confirm.
>>74741639I mean do you eat carbs or not? The answer is simple
>>74741646Eat about 21 carbs a day, which is lower than the 50 they say keto is.
>>74741646>keto is when literally zero carbspeople really shit on keto and have zero clue of how it actually works
>>74741639Any super low cal high protein diet will automatically be close to keto, high protein stuff (chicken, fish) are low on carbs.If you want an high carb and protein food I suggest lentils, just 50g are very filling for me.
>>74741648the 50 grams thing assumes a 2000kcal diet, you really only have to be on less than 10% calories from carbsthat means you can not be on keto with 21 grams, or you can be on keto eating 100g of carbs a day, depends on the other stuff that you eat and how much of it you're using vs. storing as fat
>>74741656Huh, maybe I'm not on keto then. Guess we'll see.
>>74741639>Will piss on the strips when they get here to confirm.pretty sure those are for diabetics and to know whether you're actually in ketosis you need a blood test to check for ketones in your blood rather than in your piss
>>74741665ok genius so why do diabetics piss on KETO STRIPS for? what are they testing, if not ketones?

>lose 25kgs, finally get into normal range (ate clean, gym, no ozempic)>the very thought of fast food or drinks other than water makes me want to vomitI love this habit I built
>>74741722>Things that impact readings that AREN'T what you ate include your level of hydration (i.e. the better hydrated you are the lighter the reading)so it's still a useful measure considering you take hydration into account, and can easily be accounted for peeing on one (or twenty times) on a non-keto high carb meal day for control purposes>and how well your body is adapted to burning ketones (i.e. when you're fat-adapted your body burns all the ketones you make and you don't pee them out at all).so if you're not peeing them the keto strips don't change color, so you have false negatives, but has absolutely no way to give false positives, which implies that if you pee on a keto strip and it goes to high keto colour, you're definitely on keto (assuming you're well hydrated)obviously blood is the best method we're talking about some basic shit you can test at home>Eating 20g net carbs or less daily is the only way to get into ketosisliteral ketoschizo cultspeak, <50g is more than enough in 99% of cases, this boomer is just making shit up

Gained all my weight at the ward. Food was the only respite from the programs. Why are so many nurses so fat?
I love this little guy more than you'd believe
>>74742498Are you the bulimia girl?
>>74742530Nah just a regular schizo. Anti-psychotics make you bloat like fuck
>>74742406So this graph starts after I had been on keto for 6 months, it was the lightest ive ever been up until two weeks ago. Shot up to 300 playing WoW classic during covid, lost a bunch basically as soon as I got a CPAP machine (I was having 30 attacks an hour) the most recent weight loss came from following a low fat, low salt diet. The low fat part I do not recommend but cutting down salt helped me taste my food better and its been smooth sailing just eating whole foods not really having cravings.
>>74742544Well I have to congratulate you on your persistence. I guess weight loss doesn't have to be linear
>>74742280Not /fat/, just here to say when I met my wife she was 39 kg with 152 cm and it looked pretty hot. Unfortunately she didn't maintain that after she moved to Europe to stay with me

How do I lose fat on my face? I have never been more than a little chubby but now even after losing 13 kg and being pretty fit and fairly low bf%, my face still looks chubby. Is there some kind of exercise I can do or is that retarded to even ask?
>>74742631you can only lose your overall body fatbody fat gains are not linear, even if you lost 13kg maybe the next 5kg you lose will make all the differencebut judging by your language my guess is that you're fatter than you want to admit, just keep losing
>>74742631Face crunches
>>74742631honestly i find that my face looks better when im heavier
>>74742631Face squats
>>74742631Most folks losing weight wish they could have kept the fat in their face, some going as far as injecting some back in there to de-age themselves a bit.Ultimately, your body gets to choose the order in which it burns its fat, and there isn't a whole lot you can do about it.If you still want to lose more weight, try that and see what happens.But if you're already at your ideal weight and body comp, then it'd become a question for your neighborhood dermatologist and potentially plastic surgeon. But maybe get some second opinions first.. it can be weird how much the mirror lies to you even as your body changes significantly.

>>74742572Having a woman that's so light seems like a dream. You can try doing all kinds of things with her without needing superhuman strength.
fucking laughable that a schizo pretending to be a bulimic girl in a fat loss general can't get more than two (You)s, I'm actually proud of /fat/ps: body + timestamp
I read that spot fat loss is possible, but to do it you have to "activate the fat" by increasing the blood flow to the area. And then you have to exercise to lose calories. This will bias the place where the body pulls fat from to the area that you increased blood flow to.For example you first do a bunch of abs exercises like crunches, leg raises etc and then go for a run. In the study they found that people who did that lost more fat in the area they "activated the fat" on than controls.The problem with doing this is that it's hard to lose meaningful amounts of weight through exercise. But maybe this works with diet too?
>>74742765I'm actually lmaoing at this, it's the most retarded shit I've read in my life. Kill yourself and never give fitness advice in what remains of your life.
>>74742765What you're describing is known as "spot reduction" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spot_reduction, a made up concept that has no basis in reality, but it happens to be exactly what people want to believe and so it continues to be promoted in engagement bait content and misleading ads for useless beauty products.Sorry, the internet lied to you again.

Is it normal to overthink about eating anything? I'm not talking about specifically fast foods I mean stuff like home-cooked meals, fruits, or drinks that aren't water. For the past 5 days I've only just consumed water and vitamins, did small 20 minute workouts before work, and then average 10k - 13k steps at work. The last thing I actually at was a banana
>>74743102I switched to yogurt to hit my protein goals. So far I'm liking it more than powder or bars.
>>74743125That isn't healthy. Please eat a proper meal.

>>74742191I think that's a great goal and you should pace yourself first by starting with smaller goals, like running a 5K first. I started running a month ago and ran a sub 30 min 5K just today, which I would call a decent pace (i.e. above average amongst non-runners). I'd also like to try for the 2025 NYC Marathon, but I'm aiming to take down 5K, 10K, and half marathon races (at "decent" paces) first within the next year.
>>74743297try making that with konjac noodles. theyre almost calorie free
>>74742191Good. You need a goal scary enough to motivate you into taking it seriously. Do your best and if you dont get it in 2025, you'll have learned so much and made so much progress youll crush 2026.
>>74740375Honestly as far as fast food goes instant noodles probably aren't bad for you in the ways other food is. Poor urban asians basically live on this stuff and they look like walking skeletons. They just lack any form of real nutrition and will make you hungry again real soon. Still, it's best to learn how to make you own broth.

>>74743441I always tend to eat shit I shouldn't when I visit other people. My home is a safe place with no junk food. But, everytime I go out, people start eating and ordering food and asking if I want anything. Last time I had a roast beef & cheese sub. 12 inches. I checked the calories first, and told them no mayo. It was about 1,000 calories so nothing too extreme. I shouldn't have, though. I've been getting a lot better about not shoving my face with calorie-rich foods while going out, at least.
>>74743602>>74743614thanks bros I'll try 75lb again on monday and see how it goes
>>74743587>just failed my first exercise, it's so over brosits only just getting started. real text message i sent a friend the other day.>what am I gonna do if I'm plateauing this early?Take a deload week. Deloads are taken every 4-8 weeks typically so youre right on schedule. Do 5x3 at half weight for the week. Then get progress back up to your current weight over the next few weeks. This is how SL 5x5 recommends doing deloads. Read more of the SL materials or feel free to ask me questions.
>>74742553Thanks man, and yeah I think this time its going to be a lot more sustainable. As it turns out extreme dieting can get you extreme results but dieting is more about consistency than intensity
>>74743402Nah they fuck you up man. I speak from experience.
>>74743622Great stuff anon, that's about when I started and I'm only down 28lbs, so your pace is awesome.
>>74743442theyre right. its not all you eat. its filler to add volume to your meal. so instead of just chicken, you make chicken stir fry with them. the only way you can keep the weight off and be happy is to fight instincts like that.

>>74743037Can relate to that. What stopped me from going to my local McDonald's was one of the employees there starting to recognise and chat with me everything I went there.

>>74743971This happened to me in high school at this one good place I'd go to with friends. One day I went there when I was walking home alone and wanted to get something for when I get home and the lady saw me and just went "the usual?"
>>74743998*food place [spoiler]although it IS good[/spoiler]
>>74743037I remember when my favorite ice cream shop gave me a whole free tub as a thank you because of how often I had ordered there in the last months, that's when I realized that things had to change kek
So I've calculated it, and I'm eating 500 calories a day. The idea that eating too little calories will slow your metabolism is a meme, right?
Cardio time anons, don't skip it.
>>74744055it may not slow your metabolism but it will probably shorten your life span drastically if you're just randomly eating like an anorexic with no medical supervision or proper plan
>>74743971There's a local store that has started talking to me a few months ago like that and it throws me off every time. It's a store I get my breakfast sandwiches or yoghurts from sometimes though so not really telling of unhealthy eating thankfully.I stopped going for other reasons though. My workplace started getting food people coming to us so I get soup from there instead. A lot more filling, I find.
>>74744070>it will probably shorten your life span drasticallyThanks, definitely doing that then.Anime has taught me things that shorten your life spawn are the coolest shit ever
>>747440702oz of turkey meat(70 calories) 3x a day = 210 calories3 cups of yogurt(90 calories) = 270 caloriesPlus a vitamin B shot weekly. What am I neglecting that might put me in the grave before my time?

>>74744203literally yes, if you did long fasts, you'd notice you still need to shit even though you haven't eating in days
>>74744203Primarily breathing and sweat/urine are the main ways your body ejects the waste product of burnt fat.So you breathe and piss it out basically.
>>74744206Don't spend money to lose weight, losing weight is literally free
>>74744107Generally you don't want to dip below 1000 calories a day to avoid malnutrition, and even 1000 calories is pretty low. Plus unless those foods have way more protein than I think you are probably going to be losing a good amount of muscle mass. But if you take a multivitamin to try to cover nutrition deficiencies and don't ignore signs your body is saying its not getting enough electrolytes you probably aren't going to harm yourself too much, other than maybe gallstones.
>>74744175>Carbs?Not needed>Veggies?Only useful for fibers and micronutrients, both of which can be addressed with integrators.>>74744238>Generally you don't want to dip below 1000 calories a dayIt depends entirely on what anon's basal is.
>>74744107Low calorie is harder than just fasting. If you just did rolling 48s you could eat 1500 calories every 3rd day and see more benefits overall.
>>74744277From personal experience, this is true.Somehow I'm getting less hungry (not hungry at all acrually) during a fast than during a 500-1000 cal day.
>>74744277Imo as someone that has done both 1000-1200 calories daily is way easier mentally than 1500 calories every third day
Turns out the app I was using in conjunction with my stationary bike updated a few days ago and completely ruined whatever calculation they were using to measure calorie expenditure. Now it inflates the number by up to 50% (and growing), I can't trust any of the readings or stats anymore, I can't target anything or measure my output or know if I improved. This completely fucks over my whole 5 month plan since I can't confirm anything beyond my BMR. And even if they fix the app, the botched statistics are always going to hang over me. They already ruined what was measuring distance, they kept treated miles and km as interchangeable for a while.This is more demotivating than anything else. Continuing feels like walking blindly forward without a map.
>>74744348Can't you just track average speed and number of minutes?
>>74744361You would need to also know resistance and how to factor that in, but the app broke the resistance indicator.

Any tips for someone who only finds comfort in drinking 6+ cans of voodoo ranger regularly? I don’t eat much but I do drink pretty heavily on a regular basis (or at least whenever I can get away with it). Trying to lose 30 pounds by mid October. Don’t think I can handle being sober for the duration of this time frame.
>>74744498talk to a doctorI'm not kiddingyou can actually die
>>74744487Gj nigga
>>74744513From what? I’m not remotely close to being physically dependent on alcohol. When I do drink (which is maybe 3-4 times a week) I drink anywhere from 4-8 beers depending on what I’ve eaten and how drunk I get. If I’m eating something protein dense and drinking at the same time I can drink pretty much indefinitely from what I’ve experienced, but I cap out at 8 beers because by then I end up getting too tired to keep going.
>>74744498Go sober, as someone who just got sober recently myself. It is better than drinking.
>>74744537How do you cope with anxiety? I’m thinking about talking to my psychiatrist about getting put back on celexa. I was taking it for a few years but stopped a couple of years ago because I didn’t think it was helping much anymore. Might be time to give it another shot.
>>74744536here you go, I googled it for youhttps://www.healthline.com/health/alcoholism/can-you-die-from-alcohol-withdrawal
>>74744498>>74744545Your problem is alcoholism with weight loss as a secondary thing, you need to combat that first I used to drink two 40s and a tallboy every other night without adjusting my eating habits and ballooned up fast over a year, had a problem with anxiety and depression too and doing that helped me just be able to vibe and relax on lonely nights instead of stewing in it Honestly I don't know what advice to give you because for me I just got a hangover so bad one time that I never wanted to binge drink again and stopped immediately, but that's not gonna drive most alcoholicsAA seems to be the route for most people
>>74744553Anon, I’ve already told you that I’m not physically dependent on it. I’m well aware of what happens during alcohol withdrawals. I drink mostly to either get high or deal with extremely stressful work. I’m not at the point where I have to drink in order to prevent myself from having a seizure.FYI it takes a tremendous amount of effort to reach that point. You have to be getting completely shitfaced off of huge amounts of liquor for months on end. I have no intention of letting it reach that point.
>>74744582It sounds like you also don't have any intention to stop drinking in excess
>>74744545Drinking causes anxiety. Unironically it goes away if you just stay sober for a few weeks.
>>74744582I'm not your momdo whatever you wantI warned you though so my conscious is clearone more warning, you only get one life
>>74744598You may be right, I’ve noticed that booze increases my anxiety ever so slightly after the effects wear off and it starts to build up. >>74744594Not particularly, seeing as how it’s the only thing that gives me any comfort these days. Used to be adderall but I made a point to quit taking it about 50 days ago, so hooch has been my go-to for coping. I’m thinking that trying to swap it with getting back into an exercise routine *MIGHT* help, since sobriety really is the only solution for me to keep my life in order. Coping with the regular feelings of anxiety is proving to be very difficult, though.
>have problem>go see meme doctor to get meme drugs for itWhy are people like this? You can't just medicate all your problems away.
>>74744625it's fatty copemany such cases
>>74744625Treating the symptoms instead of the problem is a general issue across all modern medicine I did the benzos + ssri route years ago, at the insistence of my parents not knowing what to do about my neet misdirection in life. Just gave me terrible brain-zaps every time I missed a dose from insurance or pharmacy not being able to communicate with each other plus nuked orgasm pleasure to 25% and took an hour to get thereThey are a crutch, what really needs to be done is fixing the shit parts of your life
>>74744625I used to not have any faith in it until I decided to play ball with them and experienced firsthand how much it helped. Whether or not you have any faith in medicine doesn’t change the reality that it can most certainly provide solutions to complex problems.
>>74744641>fatty I’m 5’8 and 175 lbs. I’m not some fat lardass, just need to get back into the habit of being fit so I can have the confidence I used to have when I was younger and in good shape.
>>74744647It doesn't fix anything, it just masks the issue untill the drug loses effectiveness and then you need to double the dose or take 10 other meme drugs for the rest of your life.
>>74744671Right, it’s a temporary solution that is intended to help get you to figure out a more effective way to solve it on your own. When you’re floored due to depression and anxiety, taking something that can help get you out and about WILL improve your quality of life. As long as you communicate well with the person prescribing you the meds, then dosages and strategies can be worked out accordingly. The only bad thing about it is when shit like what >>74744644 describes happens (i.e. pharmacy fucks you due to miscommunication). Being dependent on something that can become unobtainable due to reasons that are beyond your control can be maddening.

>>74744348You should never trust anything other than your calorie deficit at sedentary. Exercise is generally not accurate how many calories you spend so its generally just bonus calories burnt on top of your plan.

>>74744727Lol alright, thanks anon.
>>74744644>Treating the symptoms instead of the problem is a general issue across all modern medicine It's more than just a "general issue", it's literally the principle by which they work most of the time.One of the many reasons I left healthcare.
>>74744671>It doesn't fix anything, it just masks the issue untill the drug loses effectiveness and then you need to double the dose or take 10 other meme drugs for the rest of your life.Wait until you learn about diabetes treatment with insulin and other drugs.
>>74744746>>74744751I think that kind of reveals the reason why they're so focused on treating symptoms, because patients refuse to do what is required to treat the actual problem so it's better to do harm reduction than nothingDiabetics refuse to follow a doctor's diet and exercise plan so they just treat the blood sugar spikes that they cause in themselves

>>74744765Close, but doctors don't even give patients a chance to do the right thing for treatment, any more. Even if a patient would otherwise be willing, they still put them on destructive drugs that end up sabotaging any effort to naturally fix the problem anyway.It's horrifying.
>>74744765This. Most of the time, the plans outlined by doctors will severely impact the habits and lifestyle choices that caused them to get sick in the first place. Rerouting your entire lifestyle is not an easy thing to do and requires serious dedication and resolve. The average person lacks these qualities or does not fully understand the importance of following the doctor’s orders.

>>74744780>doctors don't even give patients a chance to do the right thing for treatmentThis is bullshit, anon. Most patients are functionally illiterate when it comes to anything related to medicine, and that makes it very difficult for doctors to get them to respect the regiments they prescribe. Treating symptoms is the best they can hope for when it comes to people who try to save face by pretending like they understand the issue instead of asking for clarification. Convincing people to quit harming themselves isn’t as easy as you make it sound.
So sick of hitting a hard wall every time I stop drinking. It's like my body just shuts down all attempts at losing weight, I guess if I powered through I'd get through it eventually but it lasts at least a week. I feel good after a few days off the beer but I hate knowing I'm going to weigh myself tomorrow and be half a pound heavier and the same the next day when I'm deficiting
>>74744877Saying it's difficult only matters if you at least TRY first.I'm criticizing them for not even trying first.Learn how to read, dumbass.
I have a couple drinks every night but I balance it out by jogging after work
Just weighed in at 185 poundsI started out at 245 on May 8th and I'm pretty happy with the progress so far I should easily get under 180 pounds at the end of this month and 70 pounds lost by the 3 month markI've done a lot of fasting but I've taken it easier in July although I count calories and eat at a deficit every day and plan on continuing that habit after I hit the goal
>>74744886Lots of things can be treated lots of different ways. That’s why getting a second opinion is often suggested when you don’t like the one that is being offered. Assuming that all doctors are just out to fuck you is exactly the type of ignorance that I was referring to.
>>74744929>60 pounds in 2.5 months Holy shit, anon. Isn’t that a pretty dangerous level of weight loss? I mean, grats on pulling it off but that doesn’t sound very healthy.Even 15 a month is considered to be excessive.
>>74744929losing 60 lbs in 2 and a half months is some good shit manI'm always in here telling people about the cheat code that is fasting and you are the evidence it workskeep it up boss
>>74744930I never said that all doctors were just out to fuck you.What's actually happening is that doctors are either bought out by pharmaceuticals or weary of dealing with people who are retarded.That doesn't mean they INTEND to fuck you, it's just the consequence of them no longer caring about acting properly any more.
>>74744964this guy knows his stuffif anyone has any doubts, look up the purdue company and how they gave kick backs to doctors to prescribe pain killers
>>74743934try accessory lifts
>>74743971There’s a gas station I go to after work to buy beer since everywhere else is closed, and I’m on somewhat friendly terms with the guy who works behind the counter there. He’s pretty nice to me and we shoot the shit once in a while.
>>74744976>retards believed it when their doctor told them that the OPIATES were actually good for them I would’ve reported any doctor that tried to feed me such egregious lies ASAP.
Give it to me bros, is there any hope to reach 10% bf as a Nat that never steps in a gym? It's been four months since I start cutting again and I managed to go down from over 20% to 15%, but I wonder if trying any further is a waste of energy
>>74745061putting the fork down is less energy than shoveling slop

>>74744582>I’m not physically dependent on it>it’s the only thing that gives me any comfort these daysMate I'm not a doctor but you sound like an alcoholic.This is the same sort of reasoning I used when I was a foodaholic. "I'm miserable and this McDonalds meal is the only thing thats keeping me from killing myself."
Gonna take a cold shower, I'll report back in if I didn't die from a heart attack.
>>74745039to who, the government? lol
>>74745132I am an alcoholic, but there are two different types of alcoholics:1) the ones who drink to get drunk/high for emotional comfort2) the ones who drink because if they don’t, their body will self-destruct (i.e. delirium tremens and having seizures) Step one leads to step two, but step two is a very, very extreme point that only people who are truly careless manage to reach.
>>74745167No, your state’s medical board. At least that’s how it works in the US. That’s the first step in the long road of discrediting a greedy quack.
Is there any sort of risk to using a sauna on a huge deficit? Dunno why there would be, but its worth asking. My hotel has one and I might as well pay for the services
>>74745205Do you have any heart issues? Are you abusing DXM and steroids? Are you in Thailand fucking ladyboys? If not you'll probably be fine, but consult your doctor.
>>74745262>abusing DXM Do people really do this? Sounds awful.
>>74745061>Give it to me bros, is there any hope to reach 10% bf as a Nat that never steps in a gym?FUCK NO. You enter whats known as goblin mode. Rail thin upper body with a gut. 15% is great to hang around at, but if you wanna be lean, you need to put on a bit of muscle unless youre gifted.CAPTCHA:GYMD
>>74745142I lived but I pussied out and only had the cold water neck down. I'll do better next time!
>>74745310im at goblin mode rn, its the worst place to be. my only way out is to lift and keep cutting
>>74745310I understand what you mean by goblin mode, but it's way better than back then when I was fat, even back when I was leaner(not this lean) my abs are barely visible, now now it stands out way more than before. I probably should pick up on calisthenics again if I don't want to go to the gym, but it's not easy when you work twelve hours a day
>>74745270Roomate did it. One night he was crying his eyes out, sobbing, "why can't I be happy?"
>>74745205Do you have very low / high pressure?Did you ever feel like or actually faint in a sauna or an hot bath?If no to all, then no
>>74745347consider bulking. do it slowly while lifting and your physique will only improve. itll also help bring up your metabolism a bit, its probably low from dieting for an extended period.>>74745376goblin mode is definitely better than obese. glad youve made it this far. basic calisthenics are an amazing way to start out. a pull up bar, somewhere to do dips and an adjustable dumbell or two will make a big difference. watch scoobys videos on how to do your first pullup.
>>74745317Here's the trick.Stand under shower head with water off.Open itCongratz, if you didn't die you just took a cold shower.
>>74744707I know they're not 100% accurate, but what I had used across three devices were all fairly close to one another, so I had a general sense of what I was burning in addition to my BMR. If my 5 month plan became a 6 month plan, so be it, I still planned to exercise after I reached my goal but right now I'm cutting hard on everything and trying to get that daily calorie deficit high enough that I can actually feasibly get it done in 5 months before moving to maintenance.Without having any idea of how to gauge my effort, I can't even estimate when I'll reach my goal which is incredibly demoralizing. If it becomes a year of this, I don't even know. I'm not so far off from my goal that it'll take a year of hard cutting and no breaks, but having a path to follow at least reassures you and keeps you mentally strong.
>>74745397i cant bro my goal for the past 5 years has just been to have a flat stomach, its all i want, i dont care about muscles, i just dont want to be overweight in any way anymore. once i get a flat stomach, no matter how light i am, then ill start working out. if im a skelly, so be it, but ill be fit as fuck. i want to be military fit, not body builder fit.
>>74745470>i cant bro my goal for the past 5 years has just been to have a flat stomachits not that simple. by having such low lean body mass your TDEE becomes insanely low requiring a level of food intake that is so small, you just wont get to that point. even if you did, youre gonna look horrible. you wont be a twink, youll look like a droopy wet tshirt someone threw on a coat hanger.>i want to be military fit, not body builder fit.you will NOT become bodybuilder fit. it just wont happen. you want to be military fit, you need to train. youre not gonna starve yourself into a lean physique. i know you wont listen to me, so keep cracking on, but if you havent reached your goals in a month or two, please remember my recommendations.

Ok, coffee and toast out of the way, now I walk. Will update next thread how many steps I managed. Will just walk until my feet fall off. hopefully at least 10000
