>Who is /fat/ for?
For dough demons who are working towards a longer life and a better physique through meaningful hard-work, strategy, and dedication. This is not QTDDTOT, stick to questions on fat loss. Post height and weight when asking for advice.
Join our Fatty Contest: https://www.fattycontest.com/

>What do I do first?
1. Read https://physiqonomics.com/fat-loss/
2. Calculate your Body Fat Percentage: https://fitness.bizcalcs.com/Calculator.asp?Calc=Body-Fat-Navy
3. Calculate your TDEE: https://www.sailrabbit.com/bmr/
Remember to use bodyfat% and use Katch-McArdle Formula with sedentary settings or your TDEE will be too high.
4. Plan your weight loss: https://www.losertown.org/eats/cal.php
5. Track your nutrition with MyFitnessPal (better for packaged food), Cronometer (better for generic food/macros) or LoseIt (great for both).

>Now what?
Count calories, all of them.
Eat about 500-1000 less calories than your TDEE.
Buy scales, be accurate.
Learn to cook. Try to stick to lean protein and green vegetables.
Eat a lot of protein. 0.72g per pound of goal lean body mass.
Doing cardio, even just walking, will improve your health. There is no such thing as a healthy fat heart, but you can offset the risks.
Lifting weights will keep and gain muscle mass and burn fat much quicker. No lifting results in the body burning away muscle AND fat.
Drink more water.
Read the /fit/ sticky: https://liamrosen.com/fitness.html

>DON'T
Eat refined sugars, they're terrible for you regardless of calories.
Eat processed foods.
Drink your calories (alcohol, soda, Starbucks).
Freak out over a weight loss stall. Plateaus can last up to three weeks.
"Reward" yourself. Cheat days cheat only yourself.

One thing is the fake hunger your fatbrain feels when it's bored and one other is real hunger. I have pushed myself to 72hrs fasts before but if I really start seriously feeling like shit (which for me sometimes happens after the 60hrs mark) I just assume I did something wrong and anticipate my meal. This way I don't get extra calories and avoid hurting myself.

My fat loss has slowed down a tad. Simultaneously, the hunger I wasn't seeing much has become a little stronger. Wonder if this is "diet fatigue" and I should maintain or if I should just increase my deficit further. For now I'll do neither and monitor the situation but I'll have to make a decision if it plateaus or if the hunger becomes strong enough to threaten my will to resist.

I started keto on June, weighing in at 390lbs. Around mid July I was down to 348 and stopped keto due to feeling pretty badly, and eating like once every three days due to nausea.
From mid-July to now, I began to exercise and lower my calories. For a few weeks my weight fluctuated around 348 without losing anything, but I did notice that I was losing inches to the point it was noticeable.
For my weigh in this week I weighed in at 340, so I’m very happy to be losing again and am looking forward to finally break out of the 40s.
I’ve been fat my whole life and don’t think I’ve weighed in the lower half of 300 since early high school, and that was only because I hadn’t finished growing probably.
>>
>>74992832
If you’re gonna fast anyway, why not just do keto? It’s basically the same thing.

>If my weight is staying the same but my lifts are going up it means im recomping right?
In a broad sense yes. However, two other things can be at play:
1. Your body might be storing more glycogen, which makes the water weight go up. If you start doing a new exercise or increase the intensity of your exercise then waterweight tends to go up. This extra glycogen might make you better at exercise.
2. When you are relatively new to lifting you improve in technique. Not the stuff you learn from a video, but your body figures out how to use all the muscle fibers at the correct timing for the exercise. This will increase your lifts even if your muscles aren't getting stronger.

Both of these points tend to become less impactful the longer you have been lifting for. It is likely that all 3 of these are at play. You generally can't build muscle as fast as a decent caloric deficit will lose fat.
>>
>>74993094
Magnesium, vitamin D3, vitamin K2 (not K1), vitamin B complex (make sure it has B12 and B3, but it's better if it has all of them), zinc.
You might also need potassium. This one comes from "low sodium salt" rather than a supplement.
A multivitamin might be a good idea too. You'll probably still need extra magnesium, vitamin D3 and K2 though.
>>
>>74993365
Dry fast is a bad idea. Dehydration will just make your body hold onto more water weight. You aren't going to lose fat faster if your body is dehydrated.
>>
>>74994090
Two tips from someone who has been doing 48s for several months.
1. Eat more. There's very little you can choose to eat that will blow two days worth of TDEE in one meal. In my case, it's pizza, but other than that I eat as much as I want as anything.
2. Drink hot coffee after the meal. It hits the spot really nice and suppresses appetite while "helping with digestion".
3. Brush your teeth after the coffee.

That's it. Try it next time and see how you feel.
>>
Today is supposed to be a rest day and I have things I should be doing but I am bored and really want to go hit arms and chest.
>>
>>74994090
Try out different recipes. Adding more veggies is the most efficient way to add sheer quantity of food to your meal. Incorporate beans/chickpeas/lentils, all nutritious and super filling (extra proteins too). A 1500kcal meal can completely fill you up and you could probably go higher if you fast so much.
>>
>>74994090
>>74994282
Also soups. Soups are a fattie's best friends. You can prepare literal cauldrons that could fill up a family of four and still have extra cals to eat.

I’ve felt bad since yesterday, had congestion and an insistent cough. Still went out to workout even though I had half a mind to skip today.

>>74994257
Wrong. Water is a byproduct of your metabolism. It's created alongside CO2.
As long as you're not outside walking around in the heat your body will speed up your metabolism to produce more water.
Dry fasting is best done in a cold environment to encourage this.

You're doing something incredible. If you feel too bad go see a doctor, prolonged keto can fuck up your liver and create other issues.
>>
>>74994329
Depends on the meal. If it's particularly light, after. Otherwise before.
>>
>>74994627
>prolonged keto can fuck up your liver and create other issues.
Yeah, I felt awful and dropped it a few weeks ago. It got so bad that just the smell of food would make me want to throw up.
Now I’m just watching what I eat and exercising every day. It has been paying off so I feel a lot better.
>>
>>74994693
Keep in mind that this board is traditionally very sensitive about keto and you risk attracting shitstorm. Keto is fantastic and quite literally saved my obese mom's life so I suggest it in extreme situations (like yours, no offense), but it can be very hard to pull off and you should put yourself in the hands of a professional.
>>
>>74994725
Yeah, I did it on my own and am sure I was not getting the proper vitamins.
I also liked keto, it works very fast, but I can’t keep at it for too long. Food I enjoyed at the beginning becomes disgusting after a few weeks.
>>
>>74994781
I don't think vitamins are the issues because when you stuff your face with veggies like you normally do on a diet they are a non factor. I am NOT a medical professional but I think you were putting your liver under stress. The liver does two things: it helps digest fats, and keto is a fat heavy diet, and it regulates the expulsion of waste substances, which you're producing a lot simply by attacking your unhealthy weight. I suggest you to keep on ketoing for a while in order to quickly get to a weight that allows you to more comfortably exercise, but get informed about what you're doing (not just here we're mostly internet retards).

>>74991280
>Showering 2-3 times a day
Could this be hurting your dry skin? Showering does dry you out, also it strips your natural skin oils and good bacteria. That number seems kinda excessive to me.

Down about 50 pounds and almost under 200 (im a manlet)

Trend is missing that I gained more and didn't really start trying to lose weight until more recently, and only now starting to take it seriously.

It's weird, I don't feel like I look different (though people have commented randomly that it looks like I've lost weight, so I guess a bit)

But I am now starting to actually feel better. More energy, more nimble, more wanting to do stuff, stronger emotions and less lazy. Less depressed.
More angry though. But that can be okay, when directed.

I need to completely drop coke now though. I've cut it but I still drink it and I am aware of how bad it is. Simply cutting that entirely would get me to like 150 if I made no other changes, I bet.
Gunna switch to Coke Zero which disgusts me but if it's all I have then I'll stop drinking it entirely.
Still, down from a 12 pack of cans every 2-3 days, to having only one or two cans a day.

Thanks for reading my blog.

Since I did a serious fast, hunger seems different to me
It doesn't bother me at all. In fact, it kind of feels good, even though it's the same feeling as before
But I can eat a tiny meal while really hungry and stop eating it and have no urge to eat more, even though I'm still hungry and easily could. I am happy to stop and not sad that fatty can't have cake.
>>
>>74995291
>it kind of feels good
that good feeling is not hunger, it's the lack thereof. As a fatty you're constantly bloated and under the urge to raid the fridge (which you confuse for hunger). Both of these sensations feel bad to normal people, but are the normal state of being of a fatty. Fasting removes them both.
If you fast long enough you start feeling real hunger. It's not exactly an urge, because you subconsciously know that you can get food anytime. It's your brain doing its job, telling that you've run out of fuel and you're not functioning correctly anymore.
>>
Pretty sure its the recent addition of protein powder that's constipating me
Shame, because it's nice
>>
I seriously need something to replace food.
I’m constantly snacking through out the day. Right now I have a compulsion to eat but I’m literally not hungry at all, it’s purely enjoyment.

Any ideas of something I can do continuously throughout the day that isn’t harmful?
I’ve tried constantly heating up and drinking black tea. It’s something to sip on and not harmful to drink a ton of. It helps but open to any other suggestions.

I had this issue. I thought I had fungal infections behind my knees, elbows, pits, groin etc but it turned out to be some type of eczema. I got a compound steroid + antifungal + antibiotic cream (eczema can get infected so they put those in there just in case) and shit was gone. This was after spending a ton on OTC antifungals.

Now I just use cold showers, cerave, and a tea-tree oil body wash and my eczema is fine. If it ever flairs up bad I go to the doctor for a refill of the compound cream.

I feel like the number one tip I have for people is to never be afraid to step on the scale. I think some times people will have a cheat day or eat more than they usually do on a day-to-day basis and then step on the scale the next day and it's a bigger number and get discouraged and cause them to not want to step on the scale again, which eventually leads to going back to old habits. Don't let that happen! Step on that scale, see that bigger number. Let it help guide you to the future, not get you going
>>
>>74998114
I definitely recommend refeeding days, but only because I find eating junk food/a lot of food can tend to cause an aversion to doing it again for a while because some times it can make you feel sick and you remember why you're on your /fat/loss quest.

I want to be as far from overweight as possible while not being considered underweight. 125 is the hypothetical lowest for that. I don't intend to be there for a long time, I'll build some muscle. But it's mostly a symbolic number.

>>74998225
Yeah, I've been going through that. My younger brother is like 3.5-4.5 inches shorter than me, he has trouble putting on weight. Thin limbs, only real extra weight he's carrying are a small beer gut around the abdomen, and he's anywhere from 124-131 lbs. It might not be possible to reach 125 lbs with my frame and height, but I'll keep going until it seems I've reached the end of what's feasible.

So /fat/ I want to make an experiment. I want to marinate chicken in olive oil and spices, then before cooking discard all the oil. Is it fair to assume that the difference in weight of the piece of chicken amounts to the oil absorbed? Could there be other variables like moisture? I want to eat good but also calculate calories correctly.
>>
>>74998765
> Is it fair to assume that the difference in weight of the piece of chicken amounts to the oil absorbed?
sure
it won't be perfect but no calorie estimation is
>>
>>74998778
I will report back. Sadly I can't think of a way to calculate more complex marinades. Ideally I would use a mix of oil, lemon juice and white whine but at that point who the fuck knows what's entering my body. It's kind of frustrating because if I didn't have to mind calories and macros the recipes I could make would still be healthy and super tasty
>>

The key is to do it anyway. You need to stop expecting to wait for some magical motivation and perfect conditions, you tried that approach and it didn't work. Just run even though you don't want to and it will be miserable.

>be me

>am less fatty than June 1st

I have cut 10kg since June 1st, combination of walking and two days a week fasting.
My walking app tells me I burn fewer calories for the same distance walked. If I carry a 5-10kg rucksack would that take my calories burned to something near what they were when I was 10kg heavier? Not looking for an exact match, just something approaching what I was at.
>>
>>74998880
Sure, why not start running though if your concern is about saving time in exercising? Also the majority of weight loss is done on the ci side of cico, you should be able to handle eating less now that you are skinnier.
>>
>>74998904
Thanks anon. Not so much the time saving, and I'm still too fatty to run, but I take your point. Fasting is helping a lot, and I'm up to 2x 36 hour fasts a week, so I'll keep that up.

Yo anons, my gf has started working out over the last 2 months, she's not sticking to any routine or origami and her diet has really been lacking (prone to snacking or impulse purchases of unhealthy foods)
She said she's committed to eating more healthy moving forward and I believe her, what would be a good workout program to send her way which she can stick to and have some routine? For weight loss and general cardio improvement, she needs to tone up her stomach and legs mostly, thanks fellas

Not very related, but I see little point in marinating meats in oils if you're planning to discard the oils.
Oil-based "marinades" are mostly about giving the flavor to the oil itself, not the reverse.

For meat, you mostly want to either brine it to make it more tender or to cover it in a spiced acidic mixture to infuse flavors into the meat.
The combination of either works too.
Simple stuff works great, like taking a couple pounds of chopped meat, mixing it with a bunch of shredded onions, and adding around a table spoon worth of onions sauce and vinegar each.
>>
>>74998998
If she needs to lose weight diet is 10x more important than exercise, drill that into her head. There's no such thing as an exercise to "tone" a particular part of the body, the best she can do is a lot of free body/legs/squats in order not to lose too much of her ass as she loses weight.

What.
>>
>>74999310
Some people get it, it seems.
My digestion was functioning as usual before it seemingly stopped on the third day or so. I went for four full days and I didn't poop until I broke the fast.
Some people report getting prolonged shits around day three, though. They attribute it to a randomly selected fasting memes.
>>
>>74999339
Could be because i added lemon juice to the snek juice which is astringent and prevented me to shit out the last bits of food I ate two days ago until now. Could also be that the prolonged fasting is fucking up my stomach. If I have troubles digesting my refeed tomorrow I'll probably stop with these long fasts for a while I guess.

You should also understand that it can take you upwards of a week to shit out the food you ate.
You could've triggered that diarrhea by something you ate 3-7 days ago.

When you fast you stop shitting not because you run out of shit.

Bf% is an unreliable measurement and you should not bother calculating it until you get at least close to your goal. Weight yourself. Anyway here's a list of the possible things you're doing wrong:
>You have actually lost weight but you haven't realized
Might be because you're using some bullshit method to calculate bf%. Weight yourself.
>You are not counting your calories
This is the most likely one for newbies like you. You're eating less than what you normally do but evidently not enough to lose weight, at least a significant amount over 2 weeks.
>You are calculating exercise either in your TDEE or in your daily caloric count (or in both)
If counting the calories you eat is an imprecise science, calculating the ones you consume is even worse. Consider yourself a complete vegetable when making your calculations.
You are going to make it but you need more planning.

I haven't noticed any degradation in my performance yet, I can still do 14 push-ups with good form.

now is the time to form good habits because you'll know how to differentiate real hunger and stress eating.
When I was researching and writing my master's thesis where I usually worked minimally 12 hours a day on it and that was the most stressful period of my life so I started my weightloss journey then on purpose as to better develop discipline and try to stop treating food as an escape from stress.
What helped me a lot was preparing and calculating meals and their calories in advance so I could exactly know what will go into my body that day and usually ate it in 2 big meals so I could have a big fullfiling meal before working on it and after working so there was no real hunger or craving despite the stress because I went into the stressful situation fed and then ate after the stressful situation ended.
What also helped me was taking mandatory 2 hours a day( and I mean mandatory, never ever skip it) to just read, play vidya, watch tv, go out on a drink/coffee with friends so I naturally started combating stress this way and stopped thinking of food as an "escape" from stress, now that I feel stress I immediately gravitate to those things I mentioned.
Went from 144kg to 78kg,mostly maintained for years, I'm back here in /fat/because I couldn't start lifting due to injuries that took too fucking long to heal(fuck shoulder tendons) and now that I can finally lift again although with some restrictions I'm trying to lower bf%.

Try out different times through a week or 2 and see what suits you the most

just go for a walk when you get cravings
putting time between cravings and eating will make you eat less

I feel the compulsive to eat a hot dog with extra extra mustard. Maybe 2 dogs

stupid question yeah, but is adding cardio (like threadmill shit) after the gym accelerating/helping in any way with my weight loss? Is it even worth it? any benefits?

this
plus drink more water

>wake up at 10am
>eat a bun at 2pm
>start feeling weird, like I haven't slept the night and world seems like it's happening at 1.1x speed and I'm "shaky" mentally, at 5pm
>eat a frozen meal at 6pm (like 800 kcal)
>still feel hungry, that weird feel remains, think about going to shop and buying too much unhealthy food
>sit down because lazy
>20 minutes later, no longer feeling hungry and that weird feeling is gone
what is that feeling? Is this just out of hunger? Do people fasting feel this? It's very weird and I don't like it, but I'm also pretty happy that I was too lazy to go to shop and stopped feeling both this and hunger just by waiting. At least I think I no longer feel this now.

try eating actual food instead of slop

Nice. Why Vannes though?

Boys I have caught myself doing something sinful. I have been counting calories but I've been adding something "sweet" on top of it every day for the last two weeks or so.

I only eat 2 meals a day. One regular meal at noon, still something small in size and generally veggie heavy. Anyways at night I just buy a sandwich or a small curry soup but I have been accompanying it by some 150/250 cal dessert shit and a big latte every day (no sugar). That alone is at least 300-400 calories extra that I'm putting on top.

I have sinned, and I repent, from tomorrow I'll cut on the sweet shit and just leave the coffee. Is this the correct way of thinking?
>>
>feeling hungry again
fuck
>>75001272
ok, would you recommend something so that I don't ultimately buy takeout instead of cooking because it takes too much time?
>>75001276

>ok, would you recommend something so that I don't ultimately buy takeout instead of cooking because it takes too much time?
dairy is always good or pre boiled eggs but ultimately, start meal prepping and cooking in general.
its not gonna get easier and its better to start forming healthy habits
>>
>>75001217
i have no idea if this is actually backed up by science but what i've heard is that it doesnt burn many calories on its own but it does raise your metabolism for a day or two afterwards, so its a good idea to do it at least a few times a week for general faster weight loss

Checking in

Start date: 10 days ago

SW: 198 lbs
CW: 189.6 lbs
GW: 150 lbs

Height 5’7”
Caloric goal: 1200/day

I only hit this goal about half the time. I admit to a binge eating problem.

I won’t confuse water weight with fat loss. I know, I know.

Also, pic related is absolutely revolutionary.
>>
>>75001217
>does more exercise mean more weight loss?
i think you can figure this out for yourself
>>
>>75001346
>is this the correct way of thinking
Yeah, pretty much. Those 500+ calories in desert over a week is 3500 calories, which equates to 1 lb of fat

What the actual fuck are you doing in my hometown
what are the chances
also this is not france, it's Brittany. Do not listen to the Jacobin propagandists.
>>75001337
Vannes, outside of being a fucking traffic nightmare (and it only got significantly worse since the new mayor insists on making every single road either cyclist only or halfway for cyclists) and being utterly polluted by tourists half the year, is a very pretty city with a genuine late medieval city center and some of the nicest weather in Brittany

my office got pizza today, and i just broke through 30 bmi :/ trying to stay strong

>>75001500
dont know, will ask my mom after the surgery tomorrow

i wish my preferred reindeer jerky was like 200kcal instead of fucking 500
how come jerky has so much fat anyway? i thought you made jerky out of low-fat cuts of meat. it's like 50g out of 100

i guess i should clarify that she's getting the surgery, not me

warmer temperatures will make your body burn more calories doe
>>
>>75001560
That's the opposite of the truth. A lot of calories are spent just keeping you warm, the colder it is the more calories, which is why people tend to eat so much more during winter.
>>
is 1300 calories a good calorie budget? I did all the things in the sticky, and then took away 500 and thats the number i got. But im not losing weight fast enough but the nutritionist i saw last month said even 1300 was cutting it close to not enough so i don't know.

also i like wine, so i drink it, and im still under my calorie budget kek. not very often mind you. but i did 1216 calories today and i have 84 left for the rest of the day now :/
>>
>>75001638
'fast enough' for what? you in a hurry? you one of those fats so cosmically big you're in danger of dying in a matter of months?
just take it easy
>>
>>75001669
i was hoping to meet my goal weight by the end of the year. but yeah ok im not gonna die if i don't. i was more wondering if i should lower it from 1300 cals or not
>>
>>75001622
>the colder it is the more calories, which is why people tend to eat so much more during winter.
I thougth SAD (seasonal depression) was the main motivator behind that and the main reason a lot of cultures have their bright and shiny holidays and festivals during the dark season.
>>
>>75001693
lol yeah and the reason bears go in caves to hybernate is because they're depressed too
>>
>>75001689
if you feel fine, then why not. you know your body and your reaction to lowered calories better than we do
just be aware of the usual potential consequences. muscle loss, fatigue, brain fog, feeling bad, increased binge urges, etc etc

that's more about food availability, innit? not really the cold. maybe for smaller animals it's about the cold because they are way way worse insulated
>>
>>75001702
thanks . the only bad feels right now is my arms feel weak and fatigued. guess im finding it hard to keep lifting on lower calories. trying to punch through it at the moment but maybe i should relax a bit
>>
>>75001721
Yes, they don't have enough food and they need to eat to keep warm, so they gorge up leading to winter so they can hybernate without trouble when it comes instead of dying off because they can't keep themselves fed or warm.

Were you homeschooled? Why don't you know about how energy consuming it is to keep something warm when the environment is cold?
>>
>>75001700
if they werent dumb niggers and knew how to build their own shelters and preserve food then they would probably not evolve to become fat fucks in the fall so they can ride out the winter with little to no food.
>>75001721
this
people eat in the winter time because the lack of sun makes us depressed. this is why christmas was designed to happen around the winter solstice.

Lowballing calories burned per hour to 400 on a statiomary bike and trying to burn a lb per day whenever I have time I could burn maybe 4 lbs per week tart cherry juice somehow helps with feeling sore it's kind of interesting that it doesn't take too long or much exercise to burn a lb it might sound like a lot but if you stand all day at a shitty job you're already kind of used to using your legs that much anyway
>>
>>75001807
>1 lb per day
Not that it's impossible on a stationary bike, you're probably going to get around 1000 after a couple hours, so 3500 would be 7-8 hours. Maybe if you worked a remote job and sat on the bike the whole day you were doing it, but you'd have to have the stamina and your ass would have some awful bed sores.

you're going to hit diminishing returns at some point

Reminder that when you calculate TDEE use sedentary and separately calculate your weekly calorie expenditure exercising in pic related. I lift 3x a week, HIC 2x and LSS jogging once a week and "slightly active" overestimates my daily calories by 100.
>>
>>75001478
love.that too bro. I put it in yogurt and a lot of other things it's amazing
>>
This is a nooby question but please humor me:

I'm trying to figure out what my end point goal weight is for this weight loss. Also, new to lifting. What's the difference between stopping at 225/230 and eating maintenance while lifting, or going down to 210/215 and doing a slight bulk?

How far into your fitness campaign did you have to go before you started feeling confident enough to do things you wouldve normally never done?
>take shirt off
>try to dress nicer
>talk to women
>stop pretending like you dont notice her hints
>etc
>>
>>75002571
>take shirt off
I was already doing it for a while. It's seeing pics of me shirtless at a party that made me realize how fat I was.
>try to dress nicer
>talk to women
>stop pretending like you dont notice her hints
just do those things already, right now. It's not because you're fat that you have to be an asocial slob.
>>
>>75002342
Yes I put one serving into a container of zero sugar cool whip for a cold treat that tastes like peanut butter ice cream but for way less calories
>>
>>75002571
Some girls started to hit on my while i was still technically overweight and sporting big love handles. Obviously not 10s but it still felt nice and boosted my morale. the truth is confidence is not something that you randomly find one faithful day but it's something you train like a muscle. Many people on this board are absolute greek gods but are afraid to make eye contact to cashiers or are downright suicidal. If you don't want to end up like them start doing all of those things you listed while you're still a fatman (as long as you're not a total lard supernova).
>>
>>75002655
Ive had my chances and blown them up spectacularly. I always felt like if I am sleeping with someone I should have a body that is atleast comparable to hers even if shes like a 6/10 and im only a 4/10 (for example)
>>
>>75002571
I'm still a coward
>>
>>75002686
Try to get that number tiers nonsense out of your mind quickly. There are obviously people blessed by genetics out there but anything between them and literal freaks of nature is fair game and the preferences are very subjective. People like confident people, so wether you're looking for a gf, casual sex or just friends you need to be confident. Start now.
>>
>>75002571
>talk to women
>stop pretending like you dont notice her hints
>etc

I dont interact with women at all to know that feel
My day to day life is wake up, work, work out, shower, eat, sleep, repeat

it's so over bros
might as well just binge tonight
should I get a pizza or some butter chicken

Welcome to the wonderful and exciting world of intermittent fasting. It goes something like this:

You're done. Stop eating. Start again tomorrow.
>>
>>74994090
one meal each second
Day
That's a lot of meals anon!
>>
Tempted to get an espresso shake after gym. Board, give me strength to resist temptation.
>>
>>75002971
700 calories is still a great deficit my dude

you will heavily regret going on a binge
>>
>>75003017
just get a cold latte with skim and no sugar
>>
>>74994090
3 things
Salt if you're not getting 1500mg salt you'll off.
leptin hunger - nutrition not dense enough
ghrelin hunger- more water, if still a problem xantham gum shake. keep it for emergencies so the stomach shrinks tho

normal people would throw this out but my fat brain would be telling me to tear off the bit with the ant and finish it
curse my fat brain
>>
>>75003261
that's not even fat brain it's what normal people who dont waste food do
I once got some meat at a butcher's stall at the market, started eating it when I got home (it was pre roasted pork so it was just cold) and noticed there were fly eggs on it
cleaned it, rinsed them off, went over it a bazillion times and resumed eating it

I snack about 250-500cal during the day then have a 800-1000cal dinner and it makes me feel so fat and bloated but I'm not hungry enough midday to shift my "big" meal earlier

Thanks for reading my blog

My blog post, in no particular order: I've stopped counting my calories. Not sure why, I'm still eating the same things and roughly in the same amount as before. Well, except I've started introducing a limited amount of carbs in the form of chickpeas (mixing it cold with generous amount of EVOO, salt and an avocado). I've been slacking on my workouts, skipped two days, but I'm doing one today so there's that.
When I stare at the mirror, I have fleeting glimpses where I think I can almost stop disliking my body, but when I look again, I can't tell what it is that I saw exactly.
Once I fix the workout and cardio pattern again, I need to fix the sleeping pattern and then start tracking things again.
Three months to stay focused easily on this stuff is apparently my limit. Now I need to force myself to stay on task, or everything will go to shit again.

>not eating the most nutritious part, the ant

>>75003518
Also, I haven't technically plateau'd yet, but trendweight.com tells me I'm only losing 0.7lb/week now rather than the 1lb/week I was steadily on.
That's intentional to try to start capturing some muscle gains from my workouts, but it's still a bit of a psychological hit to see my weight loss curve flatten
I thought taking all those magic supplements was the source of my newfound and probably mystical levels of willpower, but I'm still taking them, and it's a struggle, so maybe the magic was in me all along. Until it went on vacation, anyway.
