What if I just run up and down the stairs to burn off dinner tonight?

>>75449698
Asked in last thread but just before it ended

as of now I'm only 15 pounds away from my goal weight (I'm currently 155 pounds 5'6" and started 2 years ago at 310). Is it ok if until new years I take a break from eating at a deficit and just eat at maintenance? Just to clarify. I will still weigh myself and track what I eat to make sure I don't gain and I will also still exercise so I don't lose stamina/ continue to gain muscle (currently running 3 times a week and lifting twice) I personally think I can afford it.
I'm just so sick of cutting. It's so fucking slow now that I'm only 15 pounds away. Back when I first started I was losing 10 pounds easily a month but now if I lost 5 in a month it'd be a miracle

You're starting to learn. If you want a ducks and nuns thread... you have to copy paste some text and make one.

We will cure you of your laziness yet anon

>>75449729
You can get 15 lbs off in three months easily if you do a 72h fast every other week.

>>75449698
DUCKS AND NUNS. I bet the AI zoomie is crying himself to sleep right now. I want to cry

We just keep winning nun and duck chads

>>75449729
Just keep pushing to a degree that is comfortable. Because not only do you have to lose this weight, you have to keep it off for the next couple decades.
Don't burn yourself out, but also don't relax so much that you pork up over the holidays. Keep counting calories and staying in this mindset.

Dates are all arbitrary. Hitting your goal in feb/mar is better than fumbling right at the end

It appears the /broccoli/ general has just been struck down through unprecedented janitorial means.
Please remain calm.
We will report on this once we have more details.

I'm probably within 10 lbs of my goal too. It's really discouraging how much it slows down, it's hard not to feel burned out after so much work. But I can't stop, I have to hit that number, I have to go hard again for a couple weeks and cross that finish line.

Have you tried a week long fast? You'll make huge progress in that week, even if you gain some of it back. Just get 100% of your daily electrolytes, stay hydrated, and be careful what you eat when you're done.

If I did do that would you recommend I don't exercise for that week outside of walking? I've considered fasting but just wouldn't want to exercise during because I become pretty light headed doing it even when I'm just doing my job

Usually when you fast you keep doing your regular routine. So long as you're getting your electrolytes you shouldn't feel bad for a couple days.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1onQ0nxgWFM

If you're getting your electrolytes and you feel lightheaded definitely don't keep doing it though. Just take a break on your exercise like you said.

Stopped losing weight when just doing OMAD and not really counting calories.
Guess it's time to cut down on the amount I eat.

Count calories, buy a scale, keep a diary/use Cronometer, be accurate.
Its the most surefire way to make sure you're not overeating.

Can I use clen for 6 weeks non stop?

>>75449884
No

>>75449887

2 days on 2 days off or 2 weeks on 2 weeks off?

>>75449864
Yep, same here. It turns out that it is in fact very easy to go over your daily cals in one sitting. Like the one table a day guy from last thread
>>75448239

>>75449897
No

Thinking of just doing 2 days fast followed by eating more to compensate on the remaining 5 days, but still under tdee. My thinking is the higher calories on the on days will result in a higher metabolism. Thoughts?

>>75449729
Imho until new years is a long time. Too long. Consider taking a break, just a shorter one, maybe like a week. Or do what the other anons suggested.

>>75449806
I normally do 2 hours of cardio everyday, but after 3 days or so into my fast, I cut down to 1 hour a day because it felt harder on my body and breathing and I wasn't staying as hydrated. Your weight really will begin to drop, and it becomes addictive trying to see just how low you can get it in that week, so I was in this weird place where drinking water felt like sabotaging my weight readings. It was stupid of me. I also should have had way more electrolytes than I did. But one thing it did was forcibly end my plateau, water retention couldn't do jack shit against the power of the fast.

Now I'm considering doing another week before November ends

>>75449930
How much true bodyfat would you estimate you lose within that week of fasting?

>>75449899
>Like the one table a day guy from last thread
But I didn't go over my daily calories though?

>>75449932
To give some perspective, I'm 175 cm and the lowest weight I had reached before plateauing again was 142.9 lbs on October 25th. I was dehydrated when I reached it, so my weight over the next week was around 146-147 lbs. I started my fast on the night of November 1st. One week later, right before ending my fast, I measured 129.9 lbs. In the 5 days since then, my weight has averaged around 136 lbs (up to 140 after eating and drinking), and I haven't dehydrated myself. But either way, it dropped 10 lbs after the fast.

My scale reading for body fat% isn't totally accurate, it varies, but I believe I've been seeing it anywhere from high 14% to low 17%.

>>75449690
Anon tell your mom that you need to be in charge of your own diet if she ever hopes to have grand children.

Sometimes I wonder if most people's families are dysfunctional.
Somehow, I have no problems having weekly calls with my parents, somehow they aren't completely and utterly clueless about my life, somehow they are very supportive of me losing weight too.

Holy shit dude I cannot even imagine losing literally half my body weight. Like half of you is fucking gone. Is it like being high all the time or something? It's gotta feel euphoric in some way.

I've got to be less than 128Ibs by next Thursday. I'm at 126Ibs right now and I've been fasting and doing cardio for the past 2 days. Next Thursday I have to do a strenuous strength and endurance fitness examination. Do I eat at all until then?

>>75450200
it happens so gradually that you dont even notice anon

>>75449729
Make sure you understand why you want to be at maintenance for ~2 months. Is it to improve your lean mass gains as you'll continue working out? Is it to be able to give in to some amount of peer pressure over the holidays? Is it because maintaining a deficit is just hard and you don't want to be it anymore?
Losing weight has been getting slower because your TDEE has been dropping with your weight and you've perhaps not adjusted your calorie intake accordingly.
Honestly, if you told me you want to put on some muscles before going for the finish line, I'd be okay with it. Heck, I've embraced the slowing down of my own weight loss as a mean to give myself time to gain some strength and maybe avoid the belly skelly look.
But that's not really what you seem to be saying, and you might slip into an "it's all too hard and I did well enough so I'm gonna treat myself now" attitude that would be entirely self-defeating.
Proceed with caution. Most of this battle is mental. Make sure you have the right attitude here, no matter the path you choose.

How's my daily routine? Lost 32lbs. In about 7 weeks

>>75450248
How- how do you deal with the munchies?

>>75450141
My biggest issue is that I am tall and I am really struggling to really fix my form. I recorded myself today and I noticed I really lean forward . I am really considering just doing a hack squat or something like that instead, but maybe I should keep trying. It's just frustrating being stuck for 4 months now without really being able to overload.

>>75449729
I am also considering taking a break during december. I really want to be able to lift while in mainentance to see what happens but I feel like I am still too far away from my goal to stop. Maybe I will do 2 weeks idk.

>>75450257
couldn't you just eat peanuts?

>>75450257
I've been smoking so long "munchies" aren't really a thing for me anymore. Believe it or not smoke to actually suppress my hunger now.

My adjustable dumbbells go in 2.5 lbs increments until they reach 25lbs, then it's in 5 lbs increments.
So after a week at 25lbs, I thought I was ready to bump my workout a notch to 30lbs, but man, that was humbling. Failure after 2 reps and massive ego damage.
I had to give up and go back down to 25lbs to finish the workout. I'm just going to work on increasing my reps for a little while before trying again.
One day, I'll be stronk.

>>75450272
Don't eat nuts. 10 peanuts is like 60 calories. Eat pickles, cucumber, and carrots.

>>75450288
That happened to me with 45lb dumbells, but I injured my bicep or a tendon, now it hurts like hell to do almost any pull or curl motion.

Get to where you're doing 20+ reps per set of 25's before attempting 30 again if you want to be careful about progressing.

>>75450201
Next Thursday as in the 21st? And you've already met your goal by 2 lbs after fasting for 2 days? Just eat maintenance or less, you're not going to have the energy for a fitness examination if you fast for another week.

>>75450326
>Thursday the 21st?
That is correct. Thank you Anon.

Congrats, WAGMI. I wouldnt do from now until december but if you do, lets say, two weeks (or at the very least a predetermined and exact amount of time) that should be fine. The holidays are hard enough as is. Just don't surrender your weight loss goals definitively. It is a temporary rest to regain motivation for the final stretch and nothing less - if you feel like not sticking to weight loss risks the end goal, dont do it.

is it possible to build muscle while trying to lose fat, if i dont have that much fat

they call it dry fasting because you end up dry, ashes to ashes dust to dust nawhamsayin
>>75450440
yes, especially in newbie gain phase this is very attainable.

>>75450440
Yes, just make sure you're eating enough protein.

Not only that you should be strength training regardless if you're making gains or not as it tells your body to preserve that muscle. If you don't strength train while losing weight those muscles atrophy. You should hit each of your major muscle groups with a compound lift 2 to 3 times a week.

How do you get rid of post flu congestion besides just letting it run its course? I want to feel normal again

>>75450627
Phenylephrine+guafesine tablets, next day on amazon. That shit dries me up

>>75450627
Orgasming clears up congestion a little

>>75450635
Phenylephrine is about to be removed from the shelves by the FDA for having been shown to be precisely as effective as a placebo.
It was introduced when pseudo-ephedrine was banned for being too useful to meth heads, as a mean to keep the masses from rioting until they all silently resigned themselves to no longer having effective sinus drying medication.

Hot take: If you're healthy and supplementing your micro-nutrient deficiencies, you're unlikely to get serious symptoms from ordinary infections like covid or the flu.
If you failed to accomplish the above, then leaning into the nose runniness is your best bet, by taking guaifenesin.
You *could* ask the pharmacist for the special pseudo-ephedrine pills they keep hidden, but in truth chemically drying your sinuses is almost never what you want for durable healing.

This is why numbers are nice. Aim for the next BMI, aim for the next tens digit, aim for the next shirt size

how many of you have actually lost weight at all and actually kept it off

clearly op hasnt since hes the same loaer autist posting his faggot duck pictures for years now. there comes a point where you have to ask "well... where are the results?"

so? where are the results, guys?

>>75451018
I started losing weight in January and still going. I plateaud in July August September but didnt gain any weight in this time despite no longer dieting. Then I went back to dieting in October.

40-50 lb weightloss. Granted thats not long enough to have 'kept it off' but 11 month is nice going so far.

I run 3 miles 3 days a week and I continue to walk 2 miles throughout the day minimum, on off days I try to get strength training in. I do not need more than 1200cal, ideally I stay under 900.

it wont ever be under that if youre not resistance training on top of the weightloss. i went through this when i was 18. i got down to 130lb at 5'9 and i was still 20% bf because all i did was eat less. you NEED to be stronger to fix that after a certain point.

>>75451052
See the other reply above you. Let her seethe, but be honest. Count a few days of her calories and SHOW HER. And remind her that's just what you saw. Plug in the TDEE and show her just how much she's overeating. You're not asking for her to get ripped or 15%BF, just not fucking fat.

>>75451052

There are more than one little nuns thread starters, anon.
Many of us have lost weight. There are relatively few reasons to stick around after having accomplished that goals, but you can find a few folks that occasionally still visit, if you learn to lurk moar.
I'm not a very interesting case since I was barely reaching the "obese" BMI level when I started, and I've just reached the "healthy" BMI range now, but we have many folks here that have accomplished much more than that.
If you want more details, you can browse www.fattycontest.com to see a sample of folks who chose to track their weight publicly, something I'm not brave enough to do.

So... How are you married to a roommate you don't sexually desire who isn't even attracted to you? Have you considered telling her you don't believe in adultery but you want a lover again? I do love my wife, and no sex isn't everything, but it would really hurt if she said she didn't care what I looked like because it implies she's just not attracted to me. It would hurt if she ruined her body and didn't care that she'd robbed me of having intimacy with her just so she could gorge food. Saying she wants to change but clearly it's just to keep me hopeful, as she makes no attempts.

I hate that I can't just get an estimate of the amount of calories that are in a food just by looking at it. I made pot roast with potatoes, celery, and carrots today, ate some of that, but who knows exactly how many calories are in a single serving. it makes me just want to eat singular things that I know I can input into a diary (like bananas or something) instead of building a meal with multiple ingredients.

I know the answer, what I must do - that is, suck it up and make the effort to log everything, then do the math to calculate what might be a reasonable serving, but god damn if it ain't frustrating to have to do this.

Personally I have lost 50lbs without counting any calories via intuitive eating and OMAD

I've been on this track for over a year now bros
Been at a sub 700 calorie diet the entire time
I went home last month and got some of my clothes from middle school and I can fit into them again (I'm 27 now)

Never give up!

I was on track today, but I decided to say screw it. It's been 5 months, and not a day has gone by where I haven't exercised. I even tried when I was sick. But I had been so stressed for the past few days, feeling hopeless. I'm close to my goal, nearly underweight, but it still feels so far away. I realized it was okay to take a break today. I ate a full size chocolate bar, drank chocolate milk, ate some mini chocolates, and then ate a bologna sandwich with American cheese even though I wasn't hungry. I just chose to do it because I felt like it. I also didn't exercise. I can get back on the horse tomorrow. I feel bloated, but satisfied that I made this decision. I'm not going to feel guilt for it, because I accept responsibility for my own actions and I will fix whatever damage I've done in the coming days.

Things will be okay.

>>75451682
Why does your goal involve being underweight?
Did you skip the part about putting on lean mass, or do you plan to tackle that later?

>>75451694
It's step 2. Step 1 is to get to an 18.5 BMI. Step 2 is to recomp what I can into lean mass. Step 3 is bulk.

I wanted to get to an 18.5 BMI so that step 3 can be a longer experience, and I have a lot of legroom to avoid being overweight if I lose focus for a bit.

It was the rest of the bag of yesterday's chips and a Dr Pepper can.
I probably won't be eating anything else today.

If you wanna see an example of what my main "meal" usually is in terms of size, here's a pizza I made in June.
That thing is 1221 kcal.
I ate the entire thing in one sitting, with Dr Pepper probably, so +154 kcal on top of that.

I would normally have a meal like that (in size, I don't make pizzas that often) somewhere around 12 PM ~ 3 PM.
Then I would finish whatever calories I have left up to 2000 by 6 PM ~ 8 PM.
Yesterday I wasn't feeling like cooking and I went to get food rather late, so I just bought 2000 kcal worth of food and ate it then and there.

Most of the days, I try to eat a fruit of sorts, usually an apple, simply to introduce some fiber into my diet.

There is no easy fix for this, it means the fundamental power dynamic in the relationship is mismatched.

She doesn't respect you, she feels like she doesn't have to listen to you that you owe her but she doesn't owe you. You should never marry someone who thinks they don't have to listen to you or vice versa, they think that they're enough just the way they are, whatever way they are, and you should accept it. In the healthiest relationships both partners feel like they are slightly unworthy of the other, like they got lucky to have this one, neither feels like they settled, and both are driven to please the other because of this. IE you both feel like a 6 who managed to somehow snag a 7, but in reality you're both on the same level.

He's got a chip on his shoulder because almost everyone fails. He himself probably failed multiple times and is still fat. It's a valid question.

The people who succeed long term are the ones who figure out that some food is fattening (carbs, vegetable oils) and other food is slimming (protein, animal fats).

I'm a severe outlier as a midget female, so I skew data heavily. I still see plenty of 5'10-6'2 in here, i think the "shockingly short" just stand out to you.
If you really want the data then you need to accumulate all height data posted over a span of time, try not to double up on posters who frequent, and then get an average, median, and set aside the 4 or so females who openly post that they are 5'4 or shorter. They get their own bracket.

Calorie is a unit of measurement. A 'calorie' of animal fat is different from a 'calorie' of seed oil. A gram of gold is different from a gram of silver.

The key to success is figuring out which foods are fattening (carbs, plant oil) and which foods are slimming (protein, animal fats).

You mistakenly think it measures how fattening a food is, but it doesn't.

>>75452931
Imagine you were building something that called for using steel. You then substitute lead for the steel based on weight. Is lead the same thing as steel?

Nutrition works the same way. You need to eat slimming food (protein, animal fats) that your body needs. When you eat fattening food (carb, plant oil) your body gets sick and fat. You cannot substitute one food for another based on a measurement (e.g. gram, calorie, liters) and expect the same results.

Yes, I have read it. It is a very good book and the principles work.

Obesity has been solved since 1864. You can eliminate it by quitting carbs entirely.

I think fasting is a bit difficult and personally think the best way to avoid carbs is an ad lib (unrestricted calorie) zero carb carnivore/ish diet.

>>75452988
Well with fasting he meant not eating 3-4 times a day + snacking like people do nowadays which has a great negative impact on obesity and health aswell.
He is not refering to the fasting people do to lose weight, just a healthy time of a day where you give your body enough rest and get low insulin levels.
The condition of spiking insulin repeatedly over the day is detrimental for health and body composition.

See pic related out of the book. (left being the desired outcome).

>>75453000
Yes but the reason he started advocating fasting is because he couldn't get his ethnic patients to stop eating rice.

When you learn what food to eat you naturally fall into healthy eating patterns. I think the most important thing is to just start a mental whitelist of food you know is healthy and eat only that, any time you are hungry, as much as you can eat of it.

Some foods I can guarantee are health enhancing foods which cause a slimmer body composition when you eat them:
- meat
- fish
- eggs
- cheese aged 6+ months
- butter
- fermented vegetables without added sugar (e.g. dill pickles, sauerkraut, kimchi)

This mentality leads to a very easy stress free maintenance of good body composition long term.

>>75453019
That's basically what I do and eat, feels the most natural to me and made me progress the most bodywise.
I do also understand the 100% CICO guys, I could lose bodyweight on a carb focused diet aswell given I starve myself in calories.
Is it most optimal? No. Is it healthy? No. Do I feel good and energized? No. Will I lose more muscle mass in comparison to a high fat high protein diet? Probably.

Even though I occasionally (maybe 1-2 a week) pop in some local, fresh fruit depending on my activity level, which is still fine.
We ate wild seasonal fruits or berrys in really low quantities when we could, aswell the fresh blood and meat in killed animals contained some glucose/sugar.

If you know that all of the fruits we buy are heavily modified, sweeter, bigger etc. and you know how much your body can tolerate, I don't see it as a huge concern to implement in the diet.

But ofc it works also withouta adding fruits.

Pic related is an example of what I mean by slimming food. Beef, dill pickle, cheddar. There's 3 beef patties for 1lb total. The dill pickle is a real fermented pickle.

This meal can be eaten any time without tracking or limiting it. The more you eat the healthier you will get. Eating this food cures obesity. No need to stress out with measuring, tracking, limiting. Just eat slimming food.

>>75453044
Hormones are complicated and it seems fruit can be fattening when mixed with other foods. Watermelon alone in the middle of the day may not be fattening. Some mixed berries for dessert after a meal may not be fattening. Berries and cream likely will be fattening, as well as any more complicated recipe that uses fruit as the sugar ingredient.

Personally I don't consider any carb part of my diet I only eat them as treats. When I do eat carbs I have high quality sources like fruit or homemade baking/sweets.

Bacon/steak and eggs is the classic easy to make healthy breakfast. Scrambled eggs are a good way to add plenty of butter. If you need breakfast in burrito format make some healthy carnivore wraps.

I have switched most of my meals for apples, and successfully lost 4kg over the course of these painful weeks.
But I can't eat these any longer. So I want to know more about slimming foods.
Is there a problem like the body trying to ''hold in'' as much as possible? Or could I switch the apple for something about as caloric though smaller?
Cause there are some chocolate cookies I like that each singular unit is about as caloric as an apple. But they are smaller than apples so I'm afraid switching apples for them may cause that weird reaction the body will think it's eating less.

If it doesn't work, I really need help bros. I am in confusion. I barely last a meal before having headaches and as hours pass my body starves. And when the end of this delay is an apple Igo crazy they are all tasteless now, or maybe worse as if I'm biting leaves from a plant.
I really need to eat something else

Did a brisk 20 minute walk after eating breakfast. Feels good. I'll be doing more throughout the day. Walking after meals is nice.

not sure what level of poor you mean but assuming you aren't destitute.
buy bags of frozen vegetables in the steamer bags when they go on sale and stockpile them, easy to microwave in a couple mins and taste good.
buy chicken breast or pork tenderloin when they go on sale and use that to last for a few days fresh, and if you can, buy extra and portion it up in freezer bags, then freeze and thaw to use when needed.
packets of tuna in between. cheap and efficient protein source. just don't overdo it.

Calorie measurements don't matter because they don't actually tell you anything relevant about how food affects body composition. That is a psyop from the sugar industry.

Beef fat is slimming. You can eat unlimited beef patties and you will get far superior results to any calorie clown.

>>75453403
Well if you do low carb then you need to get your energy from fats.
The higher fat patties usually are cheaper too and you need to eat less.

They also taste way better. The difference between kirkland lean patties (85/15) and kirkland grass fed (80/20) is very noticeable. Lean patties feel like a chore to eat. Higher fat patties are delicious and satisfying.

It's important for your diet to taste great and never leave you hungry. These are key to long term success.

I saw a video saying that if your caloric deficit is too steep then your metabolism slows down a fuckton (I guess this is what they mean by plateau?) and to get it back to normal to be able to start losing weight again you need to go back to eating at maintenance for a while. Is this true or quack science? Because I've been eating at a large deficit for 5 weeks and there's been barely any progress

Eating carbs suppresses metabolism in general. When you eat carbs but restrict the amount your get a larger metabolic suppression.

Fasting causes metabolic boost, but that is "zero calorie". Low-carb diets cause the same metabolic boost regardless of intake.

No, eating cookies won't help you lose weight. Yes, the body will think it's eating less, because it is. You won't feel full because your body will still have a lot of room that the cookies don't fill. Look for something else if you want to keep being autistic and eat only one thing.

Losing weight by living off chocolate cookies is a stupid idea. You will fail and you will deserve it.

If you fatasses have been here long enough to recognize posting patterns and start christening nicknames to everyone, your diet isn’t working

Soon, I'll be able to say I'm not fat anymore and mean it.

GET IN HERE >>75453619 if you wan to lose weight

>>75453723
No

>>75453644
Thanks for the detailed explanation.
In this case
Any low-caloric food you recommend?

>>75453788
Try other fruit. Mangoes, watermelon, bananas, papaya, orange, pineapple.

But seriously, you should just learn how to cook chicken and rice and have a complete meal instead. Of course you're going to get bored from eating the same thing everyday.

I woke up today feeling very heavy and tired like my blood is concrete and my muscles are whining at me. I've been living over 800cal and doing heavy cardio, so today is a total rest day. I had coffee with cream and sugar, and egg n' cheese sandwich, crepes, and tonight is slow cooker pork n kraut.
Part of me is screeching bloody murder that this us fat behavior and I need to run until I collapse, but also my body just feels like it's giving up. I need a break.

>>75453803
My lunch and dinner are the same as always. It’s all other meals I replaced with apples.
I”ll try those

If I'm interpreting this correctly, how long have you been on that intake? It's not sustainable.

>>75453846
it is sustainable if you have excess fat, retard you want your body to use that

I don't need to lose weight, but I was previously obese due to medications and uncontrolled blood sugar. I'm just showing up to this thread to tell you all to keep going and push through any obstacles. I believe in you and I know you're all going to make it. If you're making an effort and trying to be healthy, you're already better in the rest of the population who doesn't give a crap about health.

Hey anons, would a good way to maintain weight be to eat less on weekdays then eat more on weekends. What's weird is that on weekdays I genuinely have no cravings to eat like crazy or eat junk food but when on my days off. I'm craving pizza and soda and stuff like that. In order to make sure I don't gain from my weekend eating just be to eat at a deficit during the weekday then binge during the weekend but still track my calorie?.

>>75453948
MyFitnessPal and Cronometer have options for that

For over a month, but I think it's just a combo of being hard restricting abd the last week I haven't been sleeping well. Asleep around 2300-0000 woken up around 0200 and 0300 and back to sleep, then up for the day at 0445 on running days and 0700-0800 on off days. Whenever I get the time I do 30-60min of calisthenics on "off" days.

I have always had a bit of a belly, not like morbidly obese so it always felt weird to me as far as looking down, am I supposed to suck in or have it actually be a flat body to see it?

>60lbs down
>Belly still just as big
Its over..........

Why is the side fat of the torse so hard to get rid of?

Just had a store bought cobb salad. Almost $9 and over 1200mg of sodium. Jesus fuck

It was delicious at least

>>75454253
I was having that problem until recently after losing 60 pounds but it's getting a lot better now
1. It's actually not as big, it just feels that way, from other peoples perspective you're smaller. You can take pics to confirm
2. Every pound you lose from this point just gets more ad more noticeable

keep going anon.

lost 70 kg in about a year and half and reached my goal weight(reached 78kg) in May 2020., used to make most of the threads until then, got injured and fluctuated between 80kg-95kg since then because recovery took 3 years and was horrendous. Now I'm 82kg, lifting and trying to lower bodyfat, I pop in here every once in a while to see how the thread's going, felt very weird seeing the ducks and nuns as the OP first time because we used to use fatjaks 90% of the time

I'm completely sedentary but I have maintained my weight loss for about a decade.

Your weight fluctuates because you eat carbs. Until you quit carbs your obesity/overweight is incurable.

>>75452769
Well this one looks like the Keto guy was never actually obese, while the CICO guy has the loose skin of a dude who was at once point stage III obese and then lost hundreds of pounds.

>>75454395
interesting that picture is several years old
you will always be fat

Keto guy was obese.

Keto/carnivore has better results with loose skin in addition to superior body composition. Pic related.

As a calorie believer the CICO guy certainly failed at his weight loss and by now may have given up entirely.

I'm so tired of being fat. I hope I can make permanent change for good this time.

I didn't have much problem with loose skin after losing weight, but I have bad rib flare, so I have these huge gaps below my ribs.

Lose skin becomes an increasingly serious issues the deeper and longer you ventured into obese class III, age is also a big factor.

If you were like ~350+lbs through your 20s and decide to get in shape in your 30s you'll be full on Shar Pei mode by the time you're done.

It will stress out your body and make it hold onto water weight
You can do short fasts to expel water or just keep trucking knowing fat must burn despite the scale not reflecting it right away and the flush is inevitably incoming
If it doesn't come then you're miscounting calories

"Metabolism slowing down" means only two things - muscle wasting away (eat enough protein and lift to counteract), and NEAT activity decreasing - a very tiny amount of energy expenditure that won't counteract a deficit
"I was eating too little to lose weight" is not a real thing

>>75454813
>If you were like ~350+lbs through your 20s and decide to get in shape in your 30s you'll be full on Shar Pei mode by the time you're done
Literally me
140 lbs down, roughly 80-90 to go and I can tell it's going to be really bad
The fucked up stomach-sag skin is bad enough but worse is the giant titty saddlebags holding onto the fat until the last minute, I'm gonna look wacky as fuck at the end of this

8 pepperoni pizza rolls & a can of cocacola. Still within calorie budget and hitting protein goal, and its on my rest week after lifting 6x/week for 4 months straight. Wont be making this a habit.

>>75454872
bro you fucked up. it's ok to fuck up, but you must acknowledge that you fucked up.

>>75454872
You wouldn't have made as much progress as you have if your only reasons were aesthetic. Remind yourself of the benefits you want. eg: health, getting out of tub easier, enjoying walks in nature, etc.

>>75454629
Why don't you just do both?

>>75454895

>>75454853

>>75454813
I was in the mid 200s for probably a few years, I lost 80+ in my late 20s. Still have a bit of a pouch on my stomach and lots of stretch marks but it's not that bad. The ribs are the bigger concern, because there's no way I can get my abs or obliques good enough to make it look natural.

>>75454882
Bro before this only 13% of my calories were carbs.

>>75454914
there's no point in arguing about it, but refined carbohydrates will fuck you up. you know this man. c'mon, don't be this way. just admit it was a fuck up and move on. I'm just trying to help you stay accountable.

>>75454263
The worst part of pre-made cobb salads is usually the dressing itself, which can pack more than half of the calories the salad itself has, and is typically made of low quality fats.
You'll improve your nutrition profile significantly if you can enjoy it without the dressing.

That's literally it, he's at calorie goals it's not going to do anything to fat burn

>>75454897
Belief in calories causes people to make decisions which sabotage their own weight loss. For example choosing low-fat foods.

Once you realize calories don't matter it makes more sense to choose high-fat foods. I always try to make sure there are more grams of fat than protein in my food.

>>75454181

She loves me and is attracted to me, but she doesn't care about my body beyond maybe slightly preferring when I have a 6 pack because I've never been fat or anything. If I actually got fat she wouldn't like it but I've never been over 190. She doesn't care at all if my delts are capped and my biceps to peak

>>75452509
I also feel materialistic just wanting her to lose 25 pounds, which isn't even that much. Most women are probably fatter than her, except for some reason all the weight went to her arms and face which is a turnoff

>>75455497
They mistakenly assume we'll have a good ratio of fat to lean mass, simply because it's true on average.
But yeah, I'm in the same boat. My BMI is at 24.3 and my belly is still there, adorned with complimentary love handles.
I think we're supposed to keep working out and trust in the process at this point, even if it takes a while.
