>>75705452I would if I had a crockpot I'd feel safe leaving on for days, I have a gas range and I dont feel safe leaving it on unsupervised for days. I might look into getting an electric crockpot and start doing that, it does sound nice to have some homemade stock.

Is going for a bigger deficit than 1000 calories sustainable?I'm just over 300lbs and I've been eating about 1200cals total each day, with about 100g of proteinI get cravings here and there but I honestly can deny them pretty easy at this pointIf anybody has advice I'd love to hear itI'm planning to lift 3 times a week (once my dyel soreness cools off) and already do 30 minutes of light cardio every day
>>75705655>dyel sorenessNot a real thing
>>75705671for real?first time i go to the gym in a long time, i am always sore for 4 or so days before i feel comfortable going backsecond and third time are bad, but get betterafter the fourth time, it takes me maybe 36 hours to recoverwhat's going on here?
>>75705655Yes, you can maintain a very deep deficit for a fairly long time without any major issues have a protein source, a bit of fat (~50g) and maybe take a few vitamin supps (fish oil, magnesium, K2, D, Zinc) and you can do that for months without any issues. I'd eat more protein though, 150g at a minimum.150g of protein (600kcal) and 50g of fat (450kcal) would put you at 1050kcal with about 37.5g (150kcal) left over for carbs with your 1200 limit, seems doable. But the question is would you be able to stick with it, your options on hitting those specific targets would be pretty small.
>>75705682im the samenot sure what this rando's angle is
>>75705578Masturbate to burn calories and build up your grip strength.
>>75705684thanks for the advicetoday i hit 47 carb, 58 fat, 95 protein so far at 1100calsi could modify what i'm doing now and replace those carbs with protein
How do I save my fat family? We made new years resolution to lose weight but they've given up already. They buy donuts and cookies in multi packs and literally offer them to me on a plate. It's bad enough that they're gluttonous but they're trying to sabotage me as well.
I am amazed by how much better I feel just by walking an hour a day and I am constantly amazed by how often I don't do that
pick up a paper round
>>75705709if you live with them, put a graph paper in the living room, where you note everyone's weekly weight. lose weight to spite them, and watch as their competitiveness sets in.
>>75705709you can't, they have to want the change themselves or its not going to happenyou can save yourself though, and in the long term you can inspire them>>75705710i get thatsince i graduated highschool in 2019, i've basically just laid in bed all day since then until recentlyi actually caught my first second wind doing cardio yesterday and it hit me so hard, it was an amazing high
quitting booze for goodtried losing weight while continuing to drink but it was a retard move, actually realised that my life would be a lot better without alcohol and I'm looking forward to being sober and completely free of alcohol in my systemfeels pretty good honestly, hope it lasts
>>75705709don't bother. save yourself first and then think about saving others
>>75705735I'm 6 months sober, it's worth it.
>>75705741Nice. How did you manage to stay off of it?Right now I'm actually looking forward to being sober, which I don't remember feeling all the times I've tried to quit before but I'm still worried I'll convince myself to start drinking again
>>75705751Unironically all meme's aside i just didn't buy any so i couldn't drink it. Just say no.
the more you drink alcohol, the fatter you getthe fatter you get, the more alcohol you need to feel the alcohol.
I think fasting made me start balding
>>75705764lmao, you deserve this.
>>75705755So true, don't buy anything you will regret consuming. Simplest fucking rule but so often fucked up.We see people saying shit like "Bros I just binged on [thing I know I shouldn't consume] how did this happen!? Oh no! My entire week's deficit was ruined!" It happened because you bought it and had it in your house. If you keep that shit in your house you're going to consume it. Same goes for booze, throw out your booze, throw out your junk food, throw out anything you're going to regret consuming later and don't buy it again.
>>75705709it's hard enough to pull your own weight, don't try helping people who don't want to help themself first.this goes for everything in life. i lost thousands trying to help my mom and sister at a time when i didn't have much myself.
I wish i had friends and a social life. I guess scale went down atleast.....
>>75705886The grim reality is even if I lose all the weight I don't see it changing anything except I die a few years later. It's not like I'll magically gain a bunch of life long friends and a family and children. All of those things you had to get when you were young.
>>75705892Yeah i'm starting to feel the same honestly, 80lbs down and i'm still just as autistic and anti-social. I guess this is my life.

>>75705959What did you mean by this?
>>75705886>>75705892>>75705897This was basically my reason for not starting earlier than I was forced to.At the end of the day I'm just delaying the inevitable and trying to prevent further misery instead of having something good to look forward to.Literally just mitigating damage and pain.I always had the dream that someday I might change, but even when I put in the effort I couldn't make it and now I'm at an age where making long-term meaningful friendships isn't easy. Environment is just not set up for it, nor am I.>It's not like I'll magically gain a bunch of life long friends and a family and children. All of those things you had to get when you were young.I have one friend and we often have a saying that goes along the lines of "never going to get married at 20" and versions of it.The ideal dreams are impossible as the time to reach for them is long gone.I no longer qualify as a "young man" of which I have to remind myself every time I hear "young men" mentioned in media/online.The world and the internet is getting fucked in real time as well, so hey... at least I will get into shape to maybe be able to do some work that requires me standing and walking around someday. That way I'll be able to survive even longer if the low skill white collar jobs are gone form AI or whatever. Survive and suffer less than I have to. For what reason other than fear of death? I should really get a dog...
>>75705965Huh?
>>75705974>I always had the dream that someday I might change, but even when I put in the effort I couldn't make it and now I'm at an age where making long-term meaningful friendships isn't easyI know this feel. I guess life just feels a bit pointless once you lose those real connections, i have work friends but it isn't the same. I don't think i'd associate with them or them with me if we didn't work together. It all just feels so empty now.....
>>75705974>For what reason other than fear of death?For me it's not wanting to put my mother through the pain of me dying first that keeps me going. Which is ironic because she is the biggest reason I ended up this way but at some point you just can't hold onto old resentments any longer. I gotta hold on until she goes at least, maybe there's some kind of happiness out there for me too but I'm not holding my breath for it. My younger and fitter friends aren't any happier and they can't find good wives or gf's either so what hope do I have?
>>75705994>>75705991>>75705974Why are you guys so worried about friends and gfs when you have family?I love my whole family and I see them all the timeIt's great to spend time with them, I always have the most interesting conversations, the heartiest laughsForget the hoes and the drinking buddies, prioritize your family first brahs
>>75705433I don't want to start a new thread just for this question, maybe someone could help.I'm helping a friend gettin fitter, but he trains at home. he doesn't want to get big or anything, just leaner and stronger.no machines, just a couple of dumbells. could someone suggest back exercises with dumbells?
>>75705433Ok so I'm in deficit for sure, no food extra, nothing but water, and no progress. I do have a bad sleep routine could this be the culprit?
>>75706054You aren't in a deficit
>>75706035My parents are 70 year old boomers, I can't do things with them that I could do with people my own age. My dad completely ignored modern forms of entertainment. I can't talk to him about video games or any media I am into. He just talks about football and my mom is a dyed in the wool Christian and anything more risque than the waltons or little house on the prairie is taboo. I care about them but they aren't people I can spend a lot of meaningful time with. I see all the time but it's not the same as having friends or a mate.
>>75705886>>75705892>>75705974If You guys don't know how it feels to be lean and hot you have to at least give it a try, everything is hard when youìre a loser but when you look good people wanna be with you and it makes it all so much easier.Get Hot and stop being desperate.

>just lose the weight and you'll be hot >it's easy just be hot bro I'm hot and have tons of friends
>>75706089I've heard people say losing weight instantly makes you hotter, is this true? and that life begins at single-figure body fat?
Wow what a bunch of whiny anons in this thread. Imagine if y'all had to face real adversity. I have more respect for a Haitian nigger to be honest
>>75706100Nice!
>>75706121I can confirm the first part to be true, I've been yo-yoing from fat to semi-fit for years now and the way people treat me differently during phases is astounding. (a part of it is probably because I like myself more).I've never been even close to 10% but I think that's an exxageration, anything close to 20% and muscular already makes you stand out.
>>75706170I will add this might be an American specific change.
>>75705480Days aren't necessary! You can extract most of the collagen and make a super nice stock in ~6 hours. If you have a larger bird, like a turkey or a goose, it may take a bit longer but I've gotten some beautiful gelatinous stocks over the course of an afternoon.
>>75706060> little house on the prairieEasy. Get her into Highway to Heaven (1984), she'll love seeing the dad hanging out with Isaiah again, and once she's a few seasons in, get her into Quantum Leap (1989), it's almost exactly the same premise.From there, she'll soon be ready to transition into MacGyver (*not* the remake), after which you can land her softly into Stargate: SG-1, and boom, you have found common ground.Alternatively, you could try to go from Quantum Leap to Star Trek: Enterprise, but that's a bit more jarring.
>>75705978I wish I still had a family like that. You're lucky. My dad died of cancer in 2017, my mom and brother are disabled with degenerative disease and depend on me to care for them full time, I love them, but they've deteriorated and sometimes its hard remembering what it was like when they were whole. My extended family all live out of state and are hundreds of miles away its been years since I've seen any of them, last time was my dad's funeral. They're essentially strangers at this point.I wonder how I was okay for so long, I was pretty positive until late last year. Guess I was just good at deluding myself. I'm 35 now, not young anymore, feels too late in life to pursue any sort of career or social life. When I started taking care of my family I didn't realized just what it was I was giving up. I love them, and they depend on me, but at the end of the day I feel trapped and alone, and its an awful feeling. I started this fresh out of highschool and I dont think I ever expected to still be doing this. My cousin with the same disease died when he was only a few years older than my brother at the time and I wanted to spend as much time with him as I could. Now hes outlived my cousin by over a decade. My dad was the healthy one, and for the first 9 years I've been doing this he was my teammate in this, but its been just me since his death its weighing on me more and more as the years go by. It wasn't until recently it really hit me I wasn't young anymore, that I'd already passed the points of no return several times, and all those fantasies about living my real life, moving on, getting a job, home, wife, kids of my own, ect were totally unrealistic.So now I'm just losing weight becuase it feels like the only thing I can do. It's something I can control and look forward to, 'number go down' is all I have. I miss my family, when we were still whole, really does feel empty.Cherish your family, you got it good.
>>75706214Still, with a gas range I like to be there watching it. 6 hours is long time to leave something unsupervised.Its not like crockpots are that pricy, I'll look around for one.
How hungry am I supposed to feel while losing weight?
>>75706342As hungry as you want to be. Eat high satiety foods, drink plenty of water, you won't be hungry.
>>75706261It is never too late, anon.

>>75706676it's because he doesn't want to look like a bitch to his son
Confess
>>75705892>>75705897I agree with >>75706089 because fatties are generally unappealing to be around. I've never been more likeable in part because I'm much more attractive, but also my fatty personality has changed a lot. I'm not so sluggish and lazy and self centered. I'm actually active in have a backbone I'm not a timid cowardly fat retard. Just a retard. And I've gotten better at masking that since I'm not so afraid of interactions anymore, so i was better able to learn and imitate
>>75706761with regard to my diet I don't have anything to confess. I'm doing very well with it, and I have to keep not exercising on account of badly injuring my ankle last month.I suppose my confession is that I ever let myself get to this point at all, to have gotten this overweight and unhealthy.
>>75706761Fat family anon. I denied the plate full of Oreos but accepted one. I fear that cracking will reinforce them to try harder.
>>75706761My meal portions have shrunk by 2/3 and I have stopped drinking chocolate milk, and run 2k every day and still no progress. I confess that the above is true. And I mean true. For me to cut any more calories I'll be <1000 calories per day
Started carnivore diet today, I don't know if it's the best it probably isn't but it's the simplest and that's what I need. Trying to balance everything never works for me and I end up failing in some way. Jut going to eat meat eggs and cheese for the next month and see how it goes.
>>75706774My losing my hair too and I dont have the chiseled jaw and skull shape to make it work, I think I just have to give up on the hope that I will ever be appealing visually no matter how much fat I lose or muscle I build.

Folks at church commented on my weight loss, said they could tell it in my face.WAGMI
>>75706676Is your dad diabetic type 2? There are some darn good reasons to be mindful of his carbs if he is.Ultimately, I wouldn't fight him too much on carbs. If he wants to be low carb, fine, why not.The TDEE stuff is important, and should be presented to him as something important, but not something that goes against his carb dogma. Start with baby steps, like tracking your calorie intake and showing him how easy it is for him to do it too.Similarly, explain how to minimize saturated fat is a really good idea for anyone with metabolic syndrome or heart related issues.
>>75706940
>>75707012It'll happen, bro. I believe in you.I've been fasting since Thursday to really help number go down. One of the missionaries asked me how I was, and I said, "Hungry." And he goes, "You can tell." And laughed. Was nice. Praise Christ.
>>75707023>FastingRetard
>>75705578Trade on wall st
>>75707027You might object to the process, but you can't deny the results. Number just keeps going down, not just in the morning, but it was down last night before bed too.
>>75707023I got the number down. It's just that no one notices since I still look like shit.
>>75706713Unfortunately that's not as easy as just losing weight. That means doing calisthenics and still consuming high protein. Youre fueled by sugars but you're built with protein and maintained with vitamins and minerals. If you aren't adding building material, nothing will be built. Could you send a picture of your ideal body, that could give you and us a better idea of what you want and how to achieve it.
>hunger pains feel the same as constipation painsUndereat, overeat, there's no rest from this
>>75707003Oh yeah, he is diabetic, I forgot about that. Doesn't stop him from eating ice cream and chocolate almonds almost every night, though.
>>75706676One of my siblings actually listened because their goal is build muscle and they've gone nowhere, so i said time to start tracking your intake; how certain are you that you're eating more than you need to maintain your current body? How certain are you of the protein you're consuming? Eat normally for a week then assess if you have gaps. Lo and behold, not nearly as much protein and just hitting maintenance. Next step i want to ease in is using a step counter and logging intentional exercise to see if it's exceeding what the app thinks TDEE should be, or if they're just way more active. I already know, but it's best when they see themselves. Does your dad actually know how many carbs he eats? I sold my sibling by using it to track macros and it might show a calorie difference, turned out positive to see proof. Tell him he shoukd try and see how many carbs he actually eats and then point out his calories to TDEE
>>75707043But I don't want to build anything. I'm fine with becoming skinny as long as I'm no longer fat.
>>75707052Have you considered seeing a gastrointestinal? Those feel nothing alike>T. Lifelong chronic constipation sufferer
>>75707070Cool digits, but no you said you want to look FIT just not ripped. What does that mean to you?
>>75707075Nah it's probably fine, but now that I think about it constipation pains definitely feel worse
>>75707086Here
>>75707099Lose weight, get really low body fat, and work out full body 2 times a week, you don't have to do much to get a body like that.
>>75707099So not much but essentially skinny+calisthenics and eating at bare minimum half his weight in protein. EZ program. That's just pushups and situps, maybe a pull up bar
>>75707118Do I need to lose another 17kg? It looks like I've made no progress at all.
>>75707003Yeah, so avoiding carbs is actually a really good idea for him, along with plain old CICO.If he can stick to only getting carbs from whole vegetables and fruits, his blood sugar levels are going to normalize to the point where he'll need to lower and eventually stop any medication he takes to lower his blood sugar, or his sugar will dip too low.If this is too abrupt of a change, you could introduce him to "keto ice cream", it comes in many kind of disgustingly sweet tasting flavors, but it's a lot easier on sugar blood levels. They will contain dangerous amounts of saturated fats, and eating a whole pint is still super bad for him, but you know, baby steps.Various other super-carby foods have "keto" variants now that are edible, most notably bread.If he has a continuous blood sugar monitor, it'll be easier for him to see the impact and understand why this is a good idea.If not, well, get him on a CGM. If the prescription models are too expensive, there are OTC models nowadays, like the Stelo which retails as cheap as $42 a pop (for 14 days of monitoring, so still over $1K/year), but they can't legally market themselves as useful for knowing when to shoot insulin or time any other medical intervention. In my experience, they are no less accurate than prescription models, just functionally gimped in terms of some features.
>raw chicken drumstick>209 calories>fried chicken drumstick>190 caloriesWhat the fuck? Is there an app or database out there with non schizo calorie values?
>>75707148It's partly for this reason that I don't go over 1,000 calories a day. If I think I'm eating 1,500 calories, maybe I'm actually eating 2,000 calories. I play it safe.
>>75707135You were blueshirt right? Can't see shit under the shirt
>>75707135Probably not. Yes it will lower your body fat. No you will not get a V-taper magically that way.Instead, you should recomp. Eat at maintenance, high protein, and workout religiously.If you can blow $40 a month on it, consider getting regular DEXA scans from BodySpec or something so you can track your progress since a simple scale won't do much for you anymore (and impedance scales are garbage.)If you start to see the recomp slowing down, you may want to switch to a mild, clean bulk to continue seeing progress.

Once I get under 60 kg I'm never going above it again
My right foot is freezing cold half the day, I think it's going to fall off soon.
>>75707135I'd say you need to trade 10kg of fat for muscle, I'd focus on lifting, building up your chest/back/shoulders. Like the other guys said, eat maintenance, stop cutting, and try to make progress on your lifts. Goal weight is rarely goal body, people who cut fast without lifting hard usually look like shit and are unhappy with how they look at their goal weight, but after 6 months or so of recomp they start looking good. Cutting more will just make you look and feel more like shit, Auschwitz mode isn't appealing to anyone.

>>75707248Yes, we're kinda going blind here unless you post body but you've got dial with three positions, you can either increase muscle (bulk eat surplus and lift heavy), decrease fat (cut, eat deficit and lift to maintain), or you can also do a little of both (recomp, eat maintenance and lift heavy). If you think you've got more muscle than that guy already you'll just want to cut.

Big weight loss day today. Ate about 1300 calories total with a 1/2 cheeseburger and a bunch of salad. And probably burned about 4700 calories today doing a 12 mile walk plus 2600 from normal daily stuff, (6'4" and weighed 288 this morning.) Net deficit of 3400 calories almost a full pound.
>>75707307fellow walkbro, the amount I burn walking is more than my deficit if I was sedentary.2000ish calorie deficit today for me.
>>75707323I don't know how you are walking 4.5 hours a day, that's insane man. I'm at 2hs of walking a day and I'm trying to make it shorter not longer. That's incredible, I'm in awe, and my back hurts just thinking about it. How many miles have you walked this month so far?
>>75707334This whole week has been 20k+ but before that I was doing 15k.I do 25k on days where I get my 20k earlier than I expected. It's fairly easy to do at this point physicaly, but it feels like a chore/slog.I endure, because number must go down.

Been extremely successful with my twink maxxing journey this year. This weekend, however, I’m drinking brewskis and eating deep dish with the family. We’re all about to go to sleep, but I can’t sleep just yet and saying hello to FLG. One weekend won’t fuck my overall efforts, and being the most fit one at the party remains kino.
>>75707299Not trying too! but I have had a couple days where I was way too focused working on shit and didn't eat enough. but I still try to stay a little lower than the calculated TDEE the OP calculator uses.Also that 5 pound drop from last week is a little exaggerated. I randomly hit a high of 210 last Friday (after being at 207 a few days prior) when I did my weigh-ins, and then dropped back down by Sunday. I appreciate the support, man. Thank you!
all last year i didnt break composure i didnt find it hard to break my bad habits i went to 380 to 260lbs but after the holidays i feel broken i am eating horribly and feel the addiction the food noise is unbearable, what can i do to try and get that old mojo back
>>75707447Just start up again, if you need a thing to get you motivated you're ngmi. You should be able to fall back into the routine and habits you were establishing previously.
>>75707447start small and work your way upthe first day is always harder than the second
>>75707447Dude, a 120 lb loss is insane. I think the psychology of the holidays being an acceptable time to crash out on your journey is sorta okay. I suspect you’ve gotten really used to significant results when you’re losing weight like that in a YEAR. But as someone who wants to lose just a few lbs and it being super difficult to actually even notice a change at all, the day to day can be frustrating, and one day can wreck an entire week’s worth of effort. That being said, don’t let a 2-3 week blip be the end of such an incredible journey. If no one else has said it to you yet, this one anon is stoked on your progress. It’s insane. Stick to it, bro. You’ve already got it figured out; just a matter of getting back on the wagon

I'm 17 lbs from being at a healthy BMI for the first time in years. Obviously I'm not going to stop when I'm there (the new diet/routine never ends, and I would rather be skinnier than 25 BMI), but I do feel like it's a milestone in the horizon. It's taken me about half a year of dedicated effort up to this point, so I'm certainly happy. Thx for reading my blog; I've found these threads helpful.

>>75707629I'm not sure precisely; I didn't have a functional scale for the first leg of my efforts. But I weighed in at the dr's office at 249 lbs on August 7, which works out to a BMI of 37.3.Today's weigh-in was 184 lbs.

I don't think my dietitian understands me when I say that I can eat a lot of food.So when I say that I eat pretty good during the week (I pretty much the same thing every day, between 1700 and 1900 kcal) but then have a huge binge like pic related once a week that completely blows out any progress I made, I don't think she believes me.

Bros, It took just 3 weeks for me to lose my way. The day before Christmas I was 2kg away from a new low, and now today I am almost 10kg. I let Christmas wreck me. I had worked hard to lose almost 40kg, I loved actually feeling like I was working towards something and getting results, I was happier, I got some confidence back to be around people again. I bought new some new clothes, I felt like I was starting to look good. I loved going to the supermarket, buying healthy foods, looking women in the eye as I walked past them and getting a smile. And now, all that feels a long time ago. I felt like I was fat again walking into the supermarket today. I just wanted to be in my sweat pants and hoodie again. I walked out of that place with chocolate and cola just like I used to do. This was the final straw. Im just writing this for myself, but I am sure others can relate. Im spending tonight redoing my tdee, planning out some meals and macros in MFP and getting back to it tomorrow. I know what to do, I have got this. I will be redeemed.
>>75707732Snacks are almost an entire extra days worth of calories.
>>75707747>>75707760I got into a bad habit of binging after grocery shopping. I keep finding new and weirder foods to binge on. Like one day I hate 3 pounds of almonds (about 8000 kcal) and thought I had a cyanide overdose

How often do you guys weigh yourselves? Daily feels like too often because just water weight and time of day / toilet usage would affect it enough to fuck with my mindset.

Is it normal to be super horny after a hard work out? My friend told me that it's better to do an intense work out 3 days a week, every other day with either a break or light workout on those off day. Thing is on my on days when I'm done, I feel REALLY fucking horny, and it's such a fucking strong ass feeling I do usually give in, but the orgasim also feels so much more intense and amazing than normally.Also on a more normal note and question: almost down to my short term goal of 250. What exercises should I be doing to gain more muscle mass when I don't have money for a gym or a lot of work out equipment? My friend says I should generally avoid lifting weights until I get used to how to do forms properly, and while he said he would teach and spot me our schedules are all over the place so we haven't been able to meet up.
Lately my life has been very challenging with shit just falling apart and falling through, turning out wrong or failed. So I've been eating more because "what's the point i cant even control my weight anymore", eating more salt i had a diet soda last night, and i gained a pound this week. My net calories are maintenance but I think it's actually greatly exaggerated. Why else would I gain a pound back? Where has my will gone? I just keep accepting treats and eating more than my portion ar dinner. Can't I say no? I used to.
>>75708482Once a week or every other week. The issue I had and what many people seem to fail at is vanity. While you are more than likely doing this too look good, being overly obsessive with your weight can be the death of your goal, specially visually. I would suggest weighing yourself at most twice a week and trying not to be toooooooo obsessive over. Be conscious so you can recognize if you are platueing or if you think there is something you might need to change or consider.
>>75708665gross
>>75708689Unironically depression makes you fat. Even if you don't eat the weird chemical imbalance in your brain produces fat. I've been in a similar boat where my life has been ass and in a depression over how shit my life is, thing is I haven't been eating because my depression makes everything taste like dog shit. I've been pushing myself a lot more in my work out and despite not eating and doing more I gained 2 pounds. I would jist suggest trying your damnest to not give in and stress eat and gvie up. Sleeping is better than eating and sleeping also helps you build your body as well since that is usually the time your body repairs itself both physically and mentally.
f 27, I recently went off medication that was causing me to gain weight. in the past month and a bit I've lost 5 kilos and ive also been eating a lot less. but recently over the past week my weight has been basically the same. I'm really confused because I'm eating such a small amount of food.

>Day before Thanksgiving>155lb>Stop caring>Day after New Years>190lb>feel defeated>get back on it>weigh in today>160lbI forgot how much water weight can bloat you up if you pause healthy eating lol.
>>75708779Your body has the ability to synthesize most of what you need to survive for a fairly long period of time, that's how vegan and carnivore work but its better to just eat a balanced diet and eat fewer calories. Extreme diets like fasting and carnivore put a lot of stress on your system which will make your performance in other areas suffer.But at the end of the day the best diet is the one that you can actually stick to. Be that traditional balanced diet or some novel fad diet. If you establish a caloric deficit you'll lose weight.

Yes I'm going to ask a really stupid question: When ever says eat green vegies they don't mean LITERAL green vegies right? I bought a bunch of red peppers and white onions that I diced up and add with my food each meal. Should I have gotten green peppers instead? I didn't think there was a difference.
>>75709212In the case of bell peppers, they’re all similar in terms of macros. But reds have a higher vitamin content
>>75709010Cut your nails
>>75709212green veggies usually means like leafy greens (lettuce, spinach, etc.). more vitamins, more satiating, etc. red bell peppers and onions are still applicable but you want to diversify

Hoping someone can provide answers as I'm freaking out.I started eating healthier and less in general after Christmas. I have already lost 4 kg which I am happy about but my stomach has inflated like crazy. I have had bloat issues before but my stomach would be soft and it would go away in a day or two, but this has persisted for 5 days now and my stomach is hard.What can be the cause of this? I look 10 kg heavier despite going down in weight.

blogging notes to self.patterns i have noticed the last 4 months:eat small breakfast. every good, high-deficit day begins here.eliminate mid-morning snacking. the first half of the day is when you have the most self-control, so harness this and don't eat 200 calories you would appreciate more in the evening.eliminate/severely limit diet soda. sweet fizzy drinks go hand in hand with your old snacking/binging habits and continue to trigger this behavior. soda with lunch makes you want to snack afterwards. it makes you feel like your stomach is a bottomless pit to shove shit down. remember this you idiot.stop putting off weight training. start now or be depressed with your body in 6 months. START TODAY.

I'm closing in on the 10lb mark lost from the beginning of the year. I'm happy with result so far, although it doesn't look like I've lost a noticeable amount from my body, but instead my face is already noticeably thinner. I'm a 6'2" 26 year old male that was 248.2lbs and is now 241.8. I have a large frame and decent amount of muscle, but I wish to return to the ottermode I was in 2021. I've been walking a lot more and have been doing body weight exercises(squats, dips, knuckle push ups, and planning on working on pull ups when everything defrosts). I need to do more stretching, and I have had periods of me binging. I'm also caffeine maxing(yerba mate and moka pot all sugar, milk, and other additive free) to help stave off snacking. I completely avoid sugary drinks with the exception of the occasional bottle of wine and scotch. When I reach the 20lbs lost mark I'll post pictures for comparison.
in terms of looks maxxing should I got for fit fat or skinny fit?
Day 5 of not pooping. I have come to the conclusion that my body is no longer producing waste. I can now digest fibre. I will be moving to the countryside and subsisting off grass now that I no longer need to buy food.
>>75709863Just get some miralax, you'll poop.
>>75709839What did he mean by this?
>>75709860Nearly all women prefer the same body type for a guy, tall, lean, and with intermediate level musculature. Of you're looking to attract women that's what you shoot for. Oh and women like broad shoulders and a developed back, ass, and chest, with visible abs.Where as men perfer larger and more musculature builds.So if you want women, shoot for low bodyfat, and work out for about a year then just maintain that build. If you want guys shoot for 18% body fat and lift hard and always challenging yourself.
>Weekend over, back to work in the morning>Still fat and aloneHow was your weekend fellow /fat/ friends?
How do I get my fat dad to lose weight? He's extremely lazy. He doesn't do ANYTHING he doesn't like unless he absolutely has to do it. I think it'll take a heart attack or a stroke to motivate him to lose weight, even then probably not.
>>75709908Still fat and still alone, but a year older but for some reason a little less miserable and more optimistic.
>>75709715oof i saw this the other day, maybe its just a bad picture >left>speedruns mario 64 and has a top 20 world speed>smokes weed like there's no tomorrow>every time he opens his mouth some absolutely hysterical comes out>right>hello is this the HR department
>>75709934You can't make someone do something they don't want to. Best you can do is try to inspire them and if they tell you they wish they can do what you did, then you can show them how and keep up with them during their journey.
>>75709944I guess so, but he'll probably never lose the weight. I've tried motivating him in various ways, but it's like trying to move a sleeping elephant. I'll just prepare myself for him to have an early death. He's lived to 59 before one of his parents died, but I'll probably be in my 30s when he dies. Selfish fat bastard.

>>75709369Gut micriobiome adapting to a vastly new diet and intake levelI was a little bloated for a month but not as bad as you describe, get probiotic foods and try to notice if there's anything new you added that seems to bloat you moreWhat was more annoying for me is the same thing causes skin rashes and that's just now resolving nearly a year later
