>Who is /fat/ for?
For the humongous big back tubby wubby jelly belly big boned big boys 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.

How many /fat/ users are regularly fasting for periods 24 hours or longer
>>
>>75110699
None, only fastards
>>
>>75110699
I always recommend everyone to try and fast for three days at least once, but not for the purposes of losing weight per se.
And I don't use fasting as a way to manage my weight either.
>>
>>75110699
I do regularly, just not atm

Week A: Eat TDEE -500 cal
Week B: Fast Mon ~ Fri, re-feed on Sat/Sun

When I look at the cicotard posts I refuse to go down that path. Im good fasting. Seethe, cope, mald, cicotard
>>
>>75110735
I also used to be unable to do it but I got kind of used to it I guess. I am two days deep into a fast right now and planning to go another day or two. Biggest advice would definitely be to supplement vitamins and electrolytes.
>>
>>75110752
Fasting is CICO
>>
>>75110699
I do 36h-48h every once in a while, did a couple of 72h just to see how it would feel and they're pretty easy to pull off because I generally don't feel hunger at all since I'm doing low carb but I don't want to have to manage vitamins and electrolytes so I just stick to 48h max
>>
>>75110735
Everyone who fasts says the first day is the hardest fwiw
>>
>>75110759
Keep coping and seething cicotard. Did u relapse on pizza again, is that why you are so mad?
>>
>>75110699
I'm on my second extended fast. ~36h in right now. Going for 3 days.
First extended fast lasted 3.5 days.

It's much easier than I expected. I sleep just fine, and I need less sleep to feel rested. Not really hungry, just bored. As long as I have something to keep myself busy it isn't all that hard.
But I do lose a lot of strength. During lifting I get tired faster, need to rest longer, and I can't grind as well as I used to. It's still worth it though. I will use this as my main form of weight lose in the future.
I wouldn't go past 3-4 days without using something like electrolytes. The last day of my previous fast fast I felt incredibly lame.
>>
Just hopped on a scale for the first time since i started going to the gym about 9 weeks ago and i lost 15 lbs. Under 240 now which feels good even though i still look like shit

Remember that your body adapts to low intensity exercise so don't count calories burned from walking after the first 6 months or so.

Intuitive eating works as long as you eat foods on which our intuition is evolved.
>>
>>75110821
When I went fasting for four full days, I decided to stop, despite initially intending to go for five.
I didn't feel hungry whatsoever but I started getting incredibly exhausted (like "have to lie down" exhausted) from moving around at all.
That didn't feel healthy or a good idea at all.

There's some evidence that spot fat reduction is not a myth, it's just hard to do. Maybe the reason your fat disappears from a weird spot is because you use muscles around that area more?

One of the claims is that you need to 'mobilize the fat' by increasing blood flow to the area. You do this by working out muscles very close to the fat. Then you do cardio to burn the fat off. (Although in the experiment they did it the other way around: cardio first, then torso rotations and crunches.)
>https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10680576/

The experiment had two groups of people: a control group and the spot reduction group.

The control group did a 45-minute treadmill workout 4 days a week for 10 weeks.
The door reduction group did a 27-minute treadmill workout followed by torso rotations and machine crunches. They did this the same 4 days a week for 10 weeks.

The study made sure that both groups expended the same amount of calories during exercise.

Trunk fat mass reduction (belly fat):
>Spot reduction group: 1171g
>Control group: 474g
Lower extremities fat loss (legs):
>Spot reduction group: 500g
>Control group: 507g
Upper extremities fat loss (arms):
>Spot reduction group: 33g
>Control group: 120g
Total fat loss:
>Spot reduction group: 1705g
>Control group: 1134g
Weight loss:
>Spot reduction group: 1.2 kg
>Control group: 2.3 kg

The spot reduction group was fatter to start out with, but they lost 7% belly fat while the control group lost 4%. That's a decent difference.

I ate a salad for lunch bros
>>
>>75111002
I'm currently trying to do this for belly fat, I'm at my goal but the gut is still here so while I'm reducing my bf% I'm also doing intense core workouts immediately followed by cardio on my stationary bike. Maybe it helps maybe it doesn't, would have done both the cardio and core workout either way.
>>
>>75110805
>your body adapts to low intensity exercise
What does that even mean? It's still going to take a significant amount of energy just to move my carcase around, or does my body generate that from nothing?
>>
>>75111002
So what workout would you do to reduce manboobs before doing cardio?
>>
>>75111039
bench press and heavy caloric restriction will do miracles to your fat cow titties

bench press contours your chest into a masculine shape and also helps you lose fat; losing fat reduces your cow udders

my pants are a tiny bit loose so I bought a new pair online, same "model" but two sizes lower (skipped one)
they won't fit, need another month or two

>>75111214

>>
>>75111149
Yes, but it will change the shape of your boob to be less like a saggy woman's boob and more like a powershitter.
Your first priority is still to lose weight though.

>>75111002
Life begins at 12% bf. Might as well just lose weight in general instead of chasing memes.
>>
>>75111214
happened to me with a shirt, best fuckup that could happen, gave me nice motivation and made me try much harder in the next month until it finally fit me.
>>
>>75111214
This always happens, every single manufacturer has different measurements for sizes. When I used to be much skinnier I had some t-shirts that would fit me perfectly and were marked ''medium'' and some were large or even extral large.

In my experience the more expensive the clothes brand, the smaller the sizes are.

>>75110728
I went above tdee twice this week, a 3000cal day and a 2800 cal day

>>
>>75111319
Unfortunately never thought to take progress pictures. I'll probably take a few pictures once I reach my end goal. Aiming for 170-175 and a few more months at the gym to get a bit of definition back before being satisfied. Still have some belly fat and a light overhang I want to fix up.
>>
>>75111388
You got any lose skin or are you lucky?
>>
>>75111426
Lucky. Very little loose skin overall currently. I've still got another 12lbs or so to go though. Loose skin might be more noticeable when I get there.
>>
I'm down from near 300 to 215 at 6', no loose skin so far but still have about 20-30lbs to go. I also drank like 1.5 gallons of water every day for the entire time I was fat so I think hydration has something to do with it.

I do and I'm not even that fat right now, kind of need to lose some weight though.
I've fasted up to 48h no problems. 30-36h is enough though, I hit some psychological hunger around 16h and it's done. Disclosure that it's not a true fast in that I do take caffeine from one low/zero calorie energy drinks. Otherwise it's just water.
>>
>>75110699
Just did 168 hours dry fasting and now I'm at 12 hours water fasting. I'll probably go for 108 hours then break it.
Down 32 pounds but I probably won't lose any during the water fasting phase as regain water weight.

>>
He didn't go 7 days without water, you can't you'll die. Ignore the faggot larper.
>>
>>75112164
>Why did you do it dry? What did you feel like?
Dry is amazing and is extremely easy except insanely fucking boring. The worst are the nights and doing any exercise. You get extreme reactions to things like endorphins so it's really easy to have a 30 minute walk turn into a 60 minute walk. You feel absolutely high at that point. Once those endorphins are gone though it's such a valley that you'll never want to walk again. Have you ever seen that video of the muscle in the lab that's cramping and you can see it bubbling? That's what my legs felt like all night. I'd lay down at 9PM and I wouldn't fall asleep until 2AM.
If anything, I was getting really tired of being indoors because "hard" dry fasting means no brushing your teeth or taking a shower, so I felt genuinely disgusting the whole time.
I think I could have gone longer judging by people on reddit or youtube, but I wasn't willing to risk it. I started having intense dreams and I was getting really scared of dying despite no actual negative symptoms aside from super chapped lips.
Water fasting with electrolytes is by and far the easiest though.

Starting weight was 287 lbs btw at 6'2", so had a lot of reserves.
Oh, and for the guy that says I'm larping, the cool part is after day 3 when you start peeing a shit ton and it's relatively clear because your body is converting fat to water. It's definitely a weird feeling.

I believe you. The three day thing is for fit people out in the wild. You are a landwhale laying in bed all day.

Still, you should really just water fast man — it has exponentially less risks to your organs and your brain most importantly. You might give yourself refeeding syndrome too.

>>
>>75110699
I've just completed a 30 day water fast because I was a 16 stone lard ass who could barely fit in his XL t-shirt. I ate nothing for thirty days, but took vitamin and protein supplements, and tablets for electrolytes, accompanied by long walks. I've lost a stone and a half. I felt like crap for the first three days, but ok after that. I'm going to see how long I go before I start to feel bad. I've still got a gut, but it's a smaller gut. My face looks thinner though, and my shirts are not tight anymore.

Why are you guilt tripping yourself? You barely broke 1k calories, even if you wildly underestimated and ate twice as much if you just don't eat anything else for the rest of the day you didn't even do anything bad.
Stop living in an all or nothing mentality, that is going to cause you to fail and backslide much easier.
Weight loss is about changing your mindset for life, if you eat like a normal person you will look like a normal person. Normal people eat whatever and if they get all their calories in one outing they just don't eat until the next day.

I was 251 lbs about 1-2 years ago. I dropped to about 230 lbs over the course of a year without active weight loss and have been actively losing weight since end of April this year and got to 206 so far. I've stalled for about a month now due to exercise though.
So far I haven't noticed any loose skin either and I hope I won't get any. I haven't noticed that I've gotten any slimmer though other than my belt on jeans (and the jeans themselves feel a bit too big even with the belt).

How long to go from 6’2” 300lbs to 200lbs?
Assume during my job I do 6000-8000 steps and then I go on a walk for another 4000-6000 at the end of the day, so my average daily is about 10k. Assume I eat 1800-2300 cals most days and occaisonally eat as low as 800 cals on the days I can bare it (since trying to get healthy I have entire days where I’m not hungry and force myself to eat, happens like twice a week).


How many months would it take me to get down to 230lbs, 215lbs, and then 200lbs?
Normally I’d agree with the logical don’t worry about how long it takes just focus on building the habits and being patient, but I have a deadline in 8 months to be 220lbs, and then at the 12 months mark to be 200lbs or less and also able to run 3-5 miles and I can’t/won’t start actually running until I’m 220lbs.
>>
>>75113345
What deadline means you have to be 220lbs in 8 months?
>>
>>75113355
Maybe military related stuff
>>
>>75113289
It's weird to assume your doctor wouldn't want to test and treat a hormonal imbalance issue from someone wearing a flashing "I probably have metabolic syndrome" suit.
Don't pick up self-defeating traits and decide it's not worth bothering your doctor with your health conditions.
If you don't expect your doctor to be competent and/or do some basic due diligence, then maybe go look for an endocrinologist instead.
>>
>>75113345
You can probably get to 215lb with a 1k deficit and ~15k steps a day in 8 months.
>>
>>75113355
Don’t worry about it
>>75113363
Yeah
>>75113381
I may be able to work in an extra hour of walking. 1800 is a 1000 deficit for me with my assumed sedentary calories, I know the activity from work and the walking are making it greater than that though. If I could shed like 20lbs, 15, 15, 10, 10, 10, 8, 8. . . I would crush my goals. Even if there’s like 40lbs of water weight that I lose in these initial first few months
>>
>>75113417
>don't worry about it
So you don't have to be 220lbs then, you're just a schizo who will fail.
>>
>>75113345
It's going to be hard to make it in 8 months. If you want to lose all of that in fat then your caloric deficit would have to be about 280,000 kcal. That's 35,000 a month or 1,167 kcal per day.

You're going to lose some muscle during this, so a more realistic number would be at about 1000-1100 kcal deficit. If you're close to the deadline you could also 'cheat' by going on a keto diet to lose some water weight temporarily, but that's going to account for only 4-8 lbs.

Any way you look at it you're going to have to be on at least a 1000 kcal deficit per day. It's hard to say how much your walking is going to add into it. 1800 kcal a day might be fine for like the first 40 lbs, but after that you will probably have to reduce it. Near 220 lbs you'd have to drop to like 1300-1500 kcal per day even.

It's not technically impossible though. LivingGod (this guy: >>75110176 ) has gone from 232.4 lbs to 190 lbs in 105 days. He says he's doing rolling 48s though - a fasting regimen (if there's a /fast/ thread around it can explain what it is). It's definitely doable without fasting, might be harder though.

Whatever you do though, you must track your calories if you try doing this. You have to be strict with it.

PS read the OP next time
>>
>>75113444
>it’s gonna be hard
>you’d need to have a 1200 deficit per day
This is gonna be cake. And I know a thing or two about cake.
>lose muscle
Don’t care I’ll rebuild it that’s not the goal right now.
>more realistic number
I’ll just do 1000 and then whatever I gain from exercise, again, I’m using sedentary calories despite the active job and daily walks. I know as soon as I’m light enough to start running without risking aggravating old sports injuries (220lbs) that the rest will come off easily enough. But even then worst case yeah I squeeze the last 10lbs via water weight.
>not impossible
I know it’s not, I’m gonna do it. Thanks man. I’ll post up in May when I’m 220lbs.
>>75113437
I’m not just gonna crush my goals but I’m going to viscously masturbate to the idea of you crying about it which is what will happen because you are already (oddly?) emotional about it like the angry little crab you are.
>>
>its the crab schizo
Lmao what a loser this guy is
>>
>>75113317
It would go disastrously. Better to leave shit be and stay invisible at work.
>>
>>75113345
It’s very possible so long as you keep the diet strict. Honestly just eating 2,000 calories with that much walking around and you’d likely at least be like 230 in 8 months. I don’t see why you then couldn’t easily enough lose the last 30lbs at a rate of 2lbs/week in the remaining 4 months
>>75113417
That’s literally what will happen if you take it seriously. First month you’ll lose a fuck ton of weight, easily 10lbs of fat and 10lbs of water if not more of both, then slightly less and less until you’re losing at a rate of about 8lbs per month. Just be prepared to have times when the weight doesn’t seem to budge until finally you get a whoosh
>>75113507

But it is wasting a doctor's time. It's like going into the doctor's office saying that you have a tachycardia problem. While you're running in place constantly. Obviously, they're going to see tachycardia and they're gonna say, have you stopped running?And you're going to say, well, it happens whether or not I do it, and they'll say, well, I'd like to assess the situation when you're not running and you're resting. Surely running in place is exacerbating the problem.
>>
>>75113808
> But it is wasting a doctor's time
Is it though?
Your hormone imbalance could be causing or aggravating other medical conditions, including weight gain itself, and you're basically trying to swim upstream because you're not a medical professional and you can't tell the flow is pushing against you, but at least you can tell yourself that as soon as you make it to the source, you'll probably bother someone to look into it.
There's a whole lot of anecdata out there showing people on T getting leaner faster.
It seems crazy to me to pretend it would be wasteful to seek help with this.
At the bare minimum, get tested.
Then once you get a low T number, you can always decide you're going to ignore the issue and power through it until some unspecified future date as a demonstration of willpower, or whatever the fuck makes sense to you.
>>
>>75113861
Except low T didn't make him fat, esting too much did. Ate you some 30 year old fat woman or something?
>>
>>75113895
Telling fat people that they do not deserve medical care because they just need to stop being fat first is harmful advice.
Many fat people are already struggling against a spiral of self-neglect and low self-esteem, and reinforcing the notion they'll just waste a doctor's time with their fat problems is simply cruel.

Just recently I had to go to a family death for several weeks and realized I need to get my shit together as the fat 60-70 year olds are beginning to drop without really enjoying life just bloated and 2 years into retirement and I cannot end up like them.

>Much research to date has focused on the positive aspects of social support across a range of health outcomes including obesity management. Increasing evidence, however, also points to a more detrimental version of social support including sabotage, collusion, and being a feeder. Further research is needed to explore the prevalence of these forms of negative support and the extent to which they impact upon an individual throughout their weight loss journey whether it be through behavioural interventions, surgery, or medication taking. Furthermore, an understanding of negative social support may help explain the higher rates of relationship change, including divorce, separation, and the onset of new relationships after bariatric surgery, particularly for those who show higher levels of weight loss [87]. Such research could form the basis of interventions targeting family, friends, or partners as a means to maximise their positive impact on weight loss and weight loss maintenance and minimise the detrimental consequences of any forms of negative social support whether intentional and explicit or more benign and implicit. This paper has therefore presented a new model of the more negative aspects of social support which involve more intentional processes which undermine an individual’s weight management attempts. These can be understood as a mechanism of homeostasis and could provide the basis for future research and interventions to support patients as they navigate the impact their attempts to lose weight have on their relationships surrounding them.

I got my first gf because of having more confidence due to the weight loss, she was a barista at a coffee shop i used to go on the way to work, she was having a coffee before her shift started one day so i sat down with her and chatted her up, asked her number, if i was still fat i wouldnt have dared to talk to her.

Give it to me straight fellow fatties. I'm probably 35%+ body fat, 6'2" 260ish lbs right now. What's a reasonable timeline to turn this around? Being cutting calories substantially and doing cardio 4-5 times a week lately. I also work a construction type job so pretty active at work.
>>
>>75116256
8-10lbs a month is just hard enough imo, a challenge but not impossible, so about 8-10 months to reach 180, although if you want a six pack you'll probably have to go lower, but you'll have a good idea by then.
unless you were already doing cardio 4-5 times a week before starting your weight loss, I would just start by eating less and only start cardio 3 months down the road, to keep things interesting. you should also start lifting at some point, sooner rather than later, but don't let any of this get in the way of eating less.

down 30 lbs this year. Im now 145 lbs and its been plateau'd for 3 month.

That's a good sign I think. Im keeping it at this level with little to no effort (binges included) because its offset by my new healthier lifetime habits

I have exercise to thank for that. I find myself less hungry and making better dietary choices thanks to a healthier hormone profile from cardio

Whilst this is true, what do you propose?

How do we stop people feeling sorry for themselves excessively? I understand this because when I was around 20 I was pretty depressed and it pissed me off when the dudebro friends around me would just tell me to snap out of it and start being a chad like them. It made me mad because I wanted to say "bro if you had my brain you'd understand"

but at the same time to them its simple. Just force myself to go to the gym so I get muscular and more outgoing from a healthier body (I was skinnyfat and drank a lot)

Sometimes you need to just suck it up, say its your fault, and to brute force healthier habits until they stick rather than giving up and saying "not my fault, this is how I am, and people wont listen to me"

It generally takes 48-72 hours to enter ketosis as an adult if you go from spiked insulin to straight fasting. During that process, around hour 18-20 your body should not feel as hungry anymore, with hunger mostly subsided by hour 48. The third day is the easiest, and from there, it's more or less the same amount of effort so long as you don't do something foolish like chew gum, drink flavored drinks, smell something delicious, or anything else that may cause your body to be excited to eat. I suggest refraining from binging food porn when fasting as much as possible, as this has a similar effect of whetting your appetite.

Hi schizo. Saturated fats are essential for humans. That means you're required to eat them or you die. Humans thrive on high saturated fat diets.

Insulin response is what tells the body to store fat. Insulin is a hormone. There are hormone conditions that cause excessive insulin production. You're wrong AND you're retarded.

/fat/ bro, gonna try to lose this shit.

Starting at around 270 lbs (190.5cm) gotta get an actual scale but that's approx.. my current weight, my TDEE is around 2700. I'm hoping to lose between 7.5-10 lbs a month, but I'm trying to switch my mindset from having a goal weight of X and instead just trying to mold myself into a person that stays at a healthy weight.

I'm going to try to stick to somewhere about 1500-1750 calories a day, and try to check in here every day.

what are your absolute meals for feeling full with low calories

I've gone on 3 day fasts before but it just makes me end up feeling weaker and the results are not worth it.

72h also made me feel tired but 48h is great, never felt exhaustion or anything out of the ordinary really

external motivations only last so long. use it to build a habit

yeah I think 48h is the sweet mark
Still, its not for me. I'd rather go slow and steady, build good habits, and enjoy my workouts.

Gonna try a 72 hour fasting just to see if I can. I'm already super obese and feel like shit so it can't get any worse (besides death, which I welcome at this point). My question is, what's the best source of electrolytes for that period and what vitamins should I take?

72h is too short too really need any real supplements. Drink a multivitamin at the start and take some magnesium and table salt the second day if you're worried

what helped me
>get a stationary bike
great form of cardio that won't fuck up your joints, doesn't depend on the weather,season and time of the day so you can exercise whenever you want while also listening to music, watching shows or playing vidya
>go low carb if you can't deal with hunger
low carb completely killed my hunger and cravings so I'd recommend it if you struggle with hunger
>count calories and cook for yourself
mostly self explanatory but cooking for yourself while counting calories will make you remember the caloric values and portion weights of food so it will be a good skill to have when you're put in a situation where you must eat out or eat at an event/party etc.
>take a progress picture every 2 weeks
your brain will lie to you about how much you've lost and you won't notice your progress by just looking in the mirror, compare pictures to see the actual progress and how much better you look
>every time you drop a size buy at least a couple articles of fitting clothes
clothes that actually fit you will make you look 10x better and everybody will notice how much you've lost , you'll spend a bit more money but it's a great motivation boost, oversized old clothes make you look like shit and much fatter

Is weight loss as simple as eating less? I lift 3-4 days a week. I tried running but hate it so I’d like to avoid that. I’m mentally fine with a meal a day if I have to. But it can’t be that simple right?
>>
>>75117887
it's that simple.
Calculate your sedentary TDEE, go at least 500 calories below it and you'll be losing weight like a champ
>>
>>75116601
Doesnt have to be. I know a guy who weighed like 290 and had a relationship with a 9/10 for like 9 years. If she is a little bit mentally ill, you have charisma and the relationship starts early, its possible (albeit rare)

>>75116827
So we're talking about the condition that's the result of obesity, right? And we're talking about how that actually makes obesity worse because high insulin means it wants to store all the extra blood sugar as fat, right? If only there was a way to limit how much sugar was in your blood, so your insulin wouldn't spike, like... like eating less sugar?
Insulin isn't just making fat from red blood cells it's SUGAR that fat boy ATE. He's resistant because of years of high sugar.

your body spends more energy while you are sick (fever for example) so you dont worry about that

I didn't measure but if I did it into a water bottle it would've filled it up most of the way. I did the math and a water bottle weighs about 16.9 fl oz which is half a kg which is about 1 pound so it looks like the math clears out.

man any anons here got problems with hard boiled eggs? i fucking love these little buggers like you wouldnt believe, esp cuz cooking them in large batches and eating them over the week is great.
i always ate some oats along with 3 eggs in the morning and i felt insanely fatigued for the morning-noon hours, esp at work, so i skipped the oats cuz i thought it was due to carb crashing
still had the same problem, just skipped breakfast, felt way better than eating just eggs in the morning.
cant do that anymore cuz i hate eating a bunch of shit at the end of the day (troubles my sleep) so i just went with oats + whey + almonds (same macros as my previous oats + eggs breakfast) and i dont feel like complete ass anymore.
i have 0 troubles like that with scrambled or fried, even poached eggs where i cook the yolk through 100%. i dont have time in the morning to do that though
what the FUCK is it about hard boiled eggs that gives me trouble? i dont want to abandon my lil homies but it seems like i have no choice..
