>>75714252this is good advice anon. thanks
Lol definitely ngmi
Confess
>>75714463Don't give up yet anon.
>>75713815>>75714252did u try buying shittons of veggies like tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce etc to put some hot sauce/spices to munch on for that savory craving and maybe zero drinks/sweet teas etc for the sweet cravings? helped me at least not go overboard calorie wise even though it bloats me to oblivion
>3x weightlifting and 3x running every week since mid decemberI have energy when I wake up. I eat a sandwich with some lean protein or an egg and do my workout just fine, but then after lunch my energy level crashes and I feel like shit the entire day.Tired, irritable, stressed, yawning.I'm sleeping 8 hours so I don't think that's the issue.Maybe it's the constant caloric deficit + daily exercise regimen.
Sup fatties.Did you know you can make pizza without the cheese, and it's pretty fucking good?Here's a recipe I've been using for a while:>low fat pizza crust (real deal, no cauliflower gay shit)>tomato puree (buy the imported ones, just tomato and salt)>2 cans of tuna (in water obviously retard)>lean ham>hearts of palm (if you find it)>sliced oniniosI've been making these for a while, about 1000 cals per so you can eat an entire fucking pizza like a proper fat fuck.
ready to /lock in/ again lads. couple more months max
>>75714466I'm at the "4-pack bordering on 6-pack" stage so I had a Walmart pizza this weekend.
>>75714540I was going try to create a 'satiety bomb' where I pack a bunch of low calorie high satiety ingredients together into a meal. Something in the 250kcal range, that tastes good and fills you up. And then I was going to binge on that instead of whatever slop I'm craving.
>>75714600CONGRATULATIONS
>>75714600You've lost as much weight as I have but you started at a lower in weight than I am now. Really puts into perspective just how fat I was and still am and how far I still have to go.
>>75714600not bad
>>75714621ye thats what i do. carbonated water bloats you up as well so maybe downing half a litre + destroying whatever veggies you got around might to do the trick already, wont even be close to 250kcaland if youre craving icecream i recommend looking into a ninja creami, plenty of high-ish volume low calorie pints of ice cream to be made with those, just gotta have them frozen and ready for when the time is right
>>75714621Here is mine 200g broccoli 70kcal2cups bone broth 80kcal1/2 cup of marinara sauce 100kcalIn a pan I mix the broth and sauce, reducing it at a simmer over medium heat.On a baking sheet I lay out the broccoli into a single layer and cook it at 350 for about 15minWhen done I add the broccoli to the sauce in the pan, which should now be somewhat thickened, mix then pour it all into a big bowl and eat with a large glass of water.
>>75714548You are too low in dietary fat so your hormones are in the toilet
>>75714466I coomed this morning
>>75714593>2 cans of tunaexcuse me garfield did you think you could just sneak tuna into your pizza recipe and no one would notice
>>75714395>through meaningful hard-work, strategy, and dedication.I'm just taking tirezpatide lol
>>75714600What app?
>>75714737bro your'e too fancy for my lazy ass. best i can do is "steam broccoli in microwave for 6 minutes, dip in marinara or hot sauce"
I really want to build muscle, but I'm getting conflicting suggestions. I was told that working out every other day will help you build muscle faster since you will have breaks for your body to repair itself, but I was also told to do small sets everyday, such as 10-20 push ups. Should I take a break in between days or should I do it everyday? I usually just take a walk and jumping jacks on my off days since those aren't to stressful on my body other than buring fat.
>>75714924>small sets everyday, such as 10-20 push upsthis is fine if your goal is to increase max pushups, but not needed for building muscle. I would do a max set of pushups at the beginning of a chest/push/upper day.
>>75714924Every other day. Your body needs time to rebuild. You also want to avoid potential injury from overuse. Particularly your tendons and ligaments.

Are nuts worth having?
Fatty Contestfatulator84.6kg
>>75714902The reduced broth adds a lot of satiety to the sauce, makes it extra thick and sticks to the broccoli better too. I wouldn't skip that part. Learning how to cook and getting better about cooking meals for yourself is a very useful skill for fatties. Don't be content with laziness, that's how you ended up here.>>75715019Anything is worth having if it fits within your macro targets and you enjoy them. That said Nuts are very calorie dense, low in satiety, and easy to overindulge upon, so generally speaking avoiding them is probably the smart move for fatties, but if you love them and want to have them, and you've got the calories to spare measure out a serving and enjoy. Just don't 'snack' on them carelessly or you can find you ate 500kcals and put yourself out of deficit before you even realized it.
>>75715019No, they're insanely calorie dense and usually very addictive. The less you spoil yourself the less you crave snacks and rich foods, they fade into memory and stop being a part of your mental list of available actions. Just eat lame food (cooked well though) until you're a good weight.
>>75715053>>75715043Good do know, was never big on nuts but wasn't sure if their nutrient profile made them worth it.
>>75714924Workout everyday, but work out a different muscle group each time. Give the previous muscle group(s) 2~3 days to recover before working them out again. Then you just cycle through your split throughout the week. This will establish it as a habitual part of your daily routine. Set a time and make sure you get out there to the gym and do your sets. If you're just starting out focus hard on like 2 exercises a day, you can add more as you go. The important part is building the habit. Soon it will be like bathing, brushing your teeth, ect, just something you do everyday.
>day 3 of the diet>can’t tell if it’s getting easier or harder
Had an 8 inch cheesesteak with fries and a 20oz coke.Dunno if that's over 1500 calories but it's all I ate.To compensate doing 30k steps today, fair?
I dream of reaching my goal weight and going back to maintenence.I miss sweets but can't ever make room for them unless it's a 25 calorie popsicle or 100 calorie serving of Halo Top.
>>75715287I'm currently eating a mini-Panetone with whipped cream and black berries and this is bringing me up to 1800 calories for the day. It can be budgeted in, especially if you cut side carbs like fries or potatoes.
>>75714593Just create an egg white crust and use low fat mozzarella with turkey pepperoni (they were out at the store last time though) or chicken. You can even use something like 0 sugar bbq sauce instead of a tomato based one.
>>75715330fries are exactly what i want to be eating in maintenance
>>75714395>Being so fat you need a general for it so your fellow fat fuck anons can console you after your gluttonous foolish self eats 5000 calories of pizza in one sitting & sobposts about itLmao! NGMI.
>>75715353>You can even use something like 0 sugar bbq sauce instead of a tomato based one.Why do this? Tomato sauce for a pizza shouldn't have much sugar in it at all.Pizza sauce is like 4 ingredients: plum tomatoes (peeled, canned, San Marzano or similar preferably), a few cloves of garlic, like a tbsp of olive oil, tsp of oreganothrow it in a blender or food processor until smooth, will make enough sauce for like half a dozen pizzas.
>Eat 7 chicken drumstick for dinner>Go log my intake>Went 300 calories over my limitWhy do I keep forgetting this shit is so caloric. I want to eat other parts of the chicken but only the breast is good
Ate a rotisserie chicken.I think I was happier when I was starving.
>Giving up nicotine this year>start snacking>gain 5lbs since the year beganIt's just not fucking fair. I hate myself so much.
>>75715398Post body
>>75715431>>75715400The skin has most of the fat, fat is 9 calories per gram vs 4 for protein you get from the meat. So its far more calorie dense. Why if you're dieting you usually go skinless, well unless you fit the skin into your diet plan, but still its really easy to go over if you're not careful.
>>75714395>Lose 30kg>Sister asks how I did it>Tell her counting my calories was the key >She tells me that sounds like an eating disorderWhy are normies like this
>>75715494It makes sense. If someone never had to consciously think about what they eat, then it’ll sound obsessive if someone else says they consciously consider everything single things they eat
>>75715494being self accountable is like black magic to them.anyways I always lie and make it look like it took zero effort.
>>75714466Got depressed and binged fucking Burguer King today...2kg down already this year, bros, I'm feeling hopeful but I felt really sad and lonely this past weekend and it got into me, but I'm stronger now, I'll keep going until the remaining 28kg are gone.
Trying 40lbs dumbbells for the first time for this workout.If my bones snap in half and I don't survive, tell my wife hello.
>>75715574Your naturalness I swear I will do so, eventually.
>2 days into my cut>just broke and gorged a bunch of chips and salmonShould I start shoving my fingers down my throat so I can vomit it up like a bulimic schoolgirl?
>>75715645Take the calories from another day fatfuck
>>75715645No, you need to live with that weight so you learn not to do it again.
>>75714466I ate a slice of pizza after dinner guess i am TWOMAD todayOTOH i am down 40lb since 7/1/24 and it is entirely because I only indulge a giant honking mug of superfatty hot cocoa once a week instead of 7 nights a week
>eat too much>gain 200lbs in a matter of weeks>eat almost nothing>lose 2lbs per weekGod fucking dammit I need to lose faster!
>>75715666You didn't gain 200lbs over a couple of weeks. We got to far state by eating like shit for a long time
>>75715666that wasn't weeks that was decades, grandpa
>>75715645are you going to throw up every single time? just go for a jog.
>>75715019Testicle are vital to men yes
>>75715078Yeah fair
>>75715494Tell her it clearly works are you're not skeletor, if you don't want to lose weight just say so but it's pretty obvious food in excess makes you fat; so don't eat in excess and in fact make sure you dont.
>>75714395I regained 80 of the pounds that I lost this past yearI can't stop thinking about food The bulimia is also getting worse I ate nearly 10k calories todayMy willpower is non existent and I refuse to take ozempicI went from 330lb to 170 back to 240
My family has been binge eating and I just... I just keep giving in. I can't wait to get out of here for my diet's sake. I'm going to gain weight back soon. It's inevitable. This can't go on.
>>75715741you obviously had the willpower to lose HALF YOUR BODY WEIGHT. Find it again and snap out of it now before you go back up.
>>75715754This is the third time I've lost 50+ poundsI'm so sorry
>>75715760I was morbidly obese since the first grade of I remember correctly First time losing weight was purely through bulimia Second through ketoThird was the biggest change through CICO and 16:8
>>75715019Hi, nut addict here (gently roasted, never salted.)I tell you hwat, it's better to grab a small handful of these when you feel a snack attack coming than to reach for whatever ultra-slop the ads are whispering you to buy.They'll lower you cholesterol and have all kind of desirable micronutrients.But yes, they're calorie dense. Gotta make that fit somehow.Anyway, I buy mine in bulk at my neighborhood hippie grocery store, 3 lbs at a time, mix of almond, macadamia, cashew, pecan, Brazil and walnut. Hazelnuts and pistachios would probably be fine too, just don't throw peanuts in there, they overpower fucking everything. They're not even real nuts.Anyway, buy them raw, preheat your oven to 280 F, spread nuts on a wide pan, put in oven for 30 to 45 minutes.My wife isn't really into (vegetable) nuts, but about 5 to 10 minutes after I take them out of the oven, I bring her a little cup of them, they're nice and warm and she always finishes them.
>>75715818My wife loves warm nuts (my cum) too.
what are some weights that I can get good mileage out of?I'm getting a 30 pound kettlebell tomorrow for cardio and arm stuff is there anything I can get for a bigger ass muscles and arms?I was thinking of getting a barbell but just the pole but I don't want to invest into a bench or weight rack kinda a poor fagside note any exercises I should avoid to minimize hernias? I'm susceptible to them I know to avoid heavy deadlifting for sure
>>75715844discipline is a thing you need to learn over time. no one is born disciplined we all come out of the womb as annoying brainless shitlets
>>75715854What do you guys eat in a day?I don't know how normal people eat
>>75715845An adjustable weight bench, and a pair of adjustable dumbells is really all you need for 95% of exercises.If you want to isolated the ass barbell hip thrusts are usually recommended, there are also reverse hyperextensions but those require fancy equipment and subjecting yourself to the "fuck my ass" posture in public, so guys tend to avoid them.Squats and Deads will also hit the ass, but they tend to target the quads and hamstrings more, so if thats all you're doing you'll end up with overdevloped quads.

>30 nuggets for $10 AUD at KFC for the next 5 daysbros… give me strength
>>75715985What are the macros?
>>75715861im probably not the best person to ask, im only on like a 2 day gym and calorie counting streak. currently doing1650ish kcal a day but basically eating the same shit as before, rice, eggs, chicken, then whatever for dinner, i dont really plan too heavily. its pretty close to how i was already eating but just with a lot less snacking. main tip ive got is to just not buy stuff that you know youll eat a ton of. i used to buy chips pretty often and would eat whole family sized bags in one sitting. when i dont have stuff like that around the worst thing i can snack on is like pre cooked chicken from the fridge or maybe a handfull of shredded cheese. obviously i havent been at this anywhere near long enough to have results but based on what ive heard, with some moderation in the amount youre eating basically any diet can work. unless its some retarded meme or fad diet shit
>>75715998This is for all 30, way too much sodium, otherwise doesn't look so bad.
>>75716015Are you sure? picrel is from kfc.com.au. With only 10 nuggets there, you get 2290 KJ, or 550 calories.30 nuggets would add up to 1650 calories, 150g of carbs of which 72g are literally sugar, 80g of fat, of which 12g are saturated fat, and 81g of protein.
How hard is it to maintain 12-13% bodyfat year round as a 6'2" man?
>>75715985A while ago, HJs was doing 10 nuggets for $3. My mate on a night out ordered 100, drank too much, vomited, rallied, ordered another 100. I kinda miss those days, but also know they did nothing good for me.
>>75716015That didn't include any sauce.>>75716028That does.Naturally don't eat sauce with your nuggs.

Oranges feel like cheating. How is a fruit allowed to be this delicious and only 70 calories?The fact I can eat 4 and not even crack 300 is ridiculous.
>>75716195I have a very hazy memory of that night, but I might've been able to get a handjob from a very cute Korean girl that night. I very, very vaguely recall some suggestion of her going to the bathroom with me and me getting confused as to why she'd do that, but that may just be me making things up, I was quite drunk that evening.
>>75715741>I refuse to take ozempicWhy?
Never tell anyone you are losing weight. Jesus fucking Christ people are retarded. My family keeps telling me I need to eat sugar 5 times a day to be healthy
Big weight loss day for me today. Between walking 14 miles, 45 minutes of calisthenics and normal daily activities I probably burned about 5,400 calories. I ate about 2200, so 3200 net deficit, just about a pound of fat.
>>75716339Pacify them by bringing fresh fruits in the house.For example, a clementine is 45 calories, and it absolutely counts as "sugar", but that's about all it has in common with the ultra-processed slop that's known to induce metabolic syndrome.If you can get them to start getting more/most of their carbs from fresh fruits and vegetable, you'll have pulled a big reverse uno card on them.
>>75714466I don't count calories, I just eat some meat and vegetables, 1 meal a day, Homemade Beef patties (eggs, beef, breadcrumbs, salt/petrer). Vegetables are usually onions and tomatoes. If it's chicken I make chicken stew with avocados, tomato's, onions and sour cream. My portion is 1 bowl.
>>75716386Do you weigh yourself? Are you trending in the direction you want?If so, that's not a confession. But you can still repent for wasting the fat priest's time.
>>75715861I just don't
>>75715666Not to mention you would certainly lose more if you really barely eat anything. Eat less fatty and buy a calendar
>>75715818>just don't throw peanuts in there, they overpower fucking everything. They're not even real nuts.What did you mean by this?
>>75716456nta but he means the flavourhave you never had mixed nuts in your life?
>>75716456They grow in the soil, like filthy potatoes, while glorious nuts come from trees.But more importantly, their taste overpowers every nuts in the mix, so you're chewing on almonds and macadamia, but all you're tasting is peanuts. It's dreadful.
>>75716366>pacifying other peoplengmi
>>75716390Yes, I gained some weight because of Christmas and new year eating. I was 205 last Friday, now it's gone down to 201. Used to be 190 back in September, but that was due to my work environment, some working out and not eating enough vs what I was losing.
Finished my first calorie counting week. Ended up at ~2100c per day. Which seems about right for my 210 pounds, 5'7". I will start cutting back tomorrow, I think I can aim for ~1900c, and see where that gets me. Main thing I want to avoid is getting too hungry and then being tempted into extra snacks.
>>75716528You can surely eat less midget
>>75716536No. I have a small machine by my heart that will explode if I don't eat enough.
>>75716528>Main thing I want to avoid is getting too hungryyes, you should avoid ANY hunger at all, just make better food choices
>>75716560Just a little hunger, my body will have to get used to less food eventually. Though yeah, most of the calorie loss will be replacing processed foods with veggies or fruit.
>>75716528Have you tried asking someone to put snacks somewhere you can't reach?

Currently 41 hours into my first ever 48 hour fastDone plenty 24 h in the past but never beyond that. Hunger really isn't that bad. I've been more hungry between lunch and dinner before. I am feeling a little woozy though. Weight is dropping at a shocking rate. legit like 1.5 kg over night, I know it'll come back though. I've wanted to try this for a while.
>>75716990first ever? be careful not to shit yourself man
>>75716993The only thing that worries me a little is that everyone that does extended fasts (48 hours isnt even that long) is always doing the electrolytes thing.I don't have electrolytes, I don't even know where to buy that shit. Surely I am not going to die if I am not chugging down a constant stream of minerals for simply not eating for two days.
>>75716998You dont need memetrolytes for 48h
>>75716998You probably won't become electrolyte deficient on a 48h fast, 72h or more is when you need to start considering them.Either way:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1onQ0nxgWFM
>>75716998Just mix some salt in some of the water you drink.
>>75717003>>75717012im not going to be sipping on bone broth tonight either, ill just start slow with some greek yoghurt and go from there, i mean fuck, if humanity couldn't live without food for 48 hours without chugging electrolytes and bone broth would we even be here
>>75714466i ate 4000 calories because i have been straight healthy for a month i am going to fast for 48 hours to offset it and put me in an average deficit of -500 calories for those days then its back to 1600 calories a day
>>75717021That'll get you sodium, but you will need potassium too if your going for extended fasts.
By my calculations I've burned 625 calories from cycling 25km at 20km/h speed, isnt it kinda OP?
>counting "burned" calories>in 2025how do people keep falling for this meme
>>75717109I'm bikepacking in summer and I cant imagine going 120km on 1500 calories
I must be calculating something wrong because I feel stuffed.Oats 40g + 100ml milk + Flax seeds - 222kcal + banana for 310 total.3 Tortillas and 200g chicken breasts 720kcal total.So I ate 1030kcal today and I feel stuffed as hell.I'm just basing this off of google numbers and the tortilla labels. First time counting too, but the measurements are exact for the portions at least.I'm starting to feel like the amount was never the problem it was all the extra sugary shit, energy drinks, pastries and chips on top of the meals.Had to basically force down the last portion and I'm still missing 470kcal for today somehow. Feel like I'm about to burst.Please someone call me out for being a retard who missed something obvious.
>>75717147>I must be calculating something wrong because I feel stuffed.>Bunch of fiber and protein (literally makes you stuffed)thats how it works dummy
>>75717147Processed carbs are not filling, protein is. Simple as.
>>75717222>Processed carbsWhat does this even mean?Why are oats so filling then?>ITS NOT PROCESSEDWhen you cut oats and then cook them you are processing them
>>75717109Yep, should only be used to adjust protein intake for muscle recovery
>>75717167>>75717222Thanks guys. It's a clumsy start, but it's a start. Been losing some kilos without really calculating so far, but I'm taking the next step. Just going to do calories initially and if I keep at it I'll look into macros after a few weeks. Slow and steady.Going to get some dumbbells for simple home exercise to add to my daily walk.Unfortunately I'm still to fat for push ups and sit ups would hurt my herniated discs.Probably going to get some app to help with the calculations instead of googling "100g chicken calories" "banana calories".
>>75717022If you want fasting to be easy then you want to go into deep ketosis first before you start fasting. Im 24 hours in to my fast and not hungry at all. Im gonna go dry for 20 hours now
My tracker says today's meal plan is below 300.... I'm almost to the halfway point
>>75717147I feel perfectly fine eating at a 500kcal deficit. When it gets lower I feel a little more hungry at night but that's it. If I'm eating at maintenance I feel stuffed.So yeah, eat good food and you'll feel good too.
>>75717263im not really hungry either
they really need to start /fast/ again
>don't eat anything >not feel hungry Fasting is literal magic

>>75717296Nah i just think that sometimes the whole "processed food" kinda loses it meaningWhen i think processed food i think goy-slop that can be warmed in a microwave for convenience, often its lacking in vitamins and fiberBut high in sugar and saltBut saying processed carbs is kinda weird and im not sure what its specifically pointing towards, are peeled and boiled potatoes processed carbs?Are sliced tomatoes processed carbs?
>>75717305>chiba dick
>>75714395Hey anons, is a 1000 calorie a day diet safe as long as I take the proper supplements (electrolytes and vitamins)? I've been doing this for the past 2 weeks with a maintenance day once a week and feel completely fine. I plan on doing it >4 weeks of eating at 1000 calories > once 4 weeks of 1000 calories are up then do week of eating at maintenance, > repeat until I'm at my goal weight (20 more pounds)
>>75717314Whatever you say carb shiller
>>75717325Did similar for 8 months last year, found that it started to make me pretty lethargic after 6 or so but guessing myself I missed something in the vitamins(or I got older since I already feel it after starting this year)
>>75717332It is your fatty brain playing tricks
>>75717339Also highly possible this time around.. I'm sticking with it but the 80 pound cut started end of dec, only 5~ down so far so I'll technically on track
>>75717255All good anonJust keep at it>Probably going to get some app to help with the calculations instead of googlingMost people use myfitnesspal because of the easy barcode scanning but you can find plenty of other simpler basic ones that dont spam you with adsOr track them on an excel spreadsheet if you want
>>75712915Today's weigh in 237.6, up a little from yesterday's weigh in on 237.2. Water weight fluctuations mean this is fine and I'm still probably losing fat. Updated loss figure is 9.8 lbs

>>75715741unironically the vitamin O might be your friend here fatanon; if you don't have the willpower, forcing yourself to get full far faster with a GLP-1 inhibitor can do a lot
>>75717401I just can't justify using ozempic I want to get healthy on my own Not only that but the possible side effectsI'd rather try and fail over and over than succumb to drugs
>>75714395At what stage do I go to a dietician? A month of calorie deficit and increased exercise and no change on the scales.
>>75717469What is your diet
hecatomb here, I fucked up Sun & Mon stressed out about an exam. I passed it yesterday which is good so now back to fitness. Not even weiging myself until this weekend after a few days of restricting calories and liquid fasting. I was at 242, will try to be back there next time I weigh in but I was stress eating peanut butter and white wine for 2 days and skipped the gym for 2 days. Hopefully the squats and deadlifts I did Saturday afternoon kept me burning calorie into Sunday at LEAST. Lots of water and fasting today>fasting
>>75717290Try fasting mon-friday, then eating maintenance sat-sun. That's what I did and It felt amazing. I ate half a rotisserie chicken, a head of broccoli, and some potato wedges, and a smoothie made pf strawberry, banana, milk, and yogurt. It was such a great meal, really miss having such high maintenance calories while watching the weight melt off, feeling the progress. Can't fast now, really focusing on my lifts and I need my protien. But I look back on fasting fondly.
OMAD + 24 hour dry fast. Is this the meta of weight loss?
>>75717469>A month of calorie deficit>no change on the scales.
>>75717060NaCl isn't the only salt.
>>75714395Ive stalled for almost 2 weeks now at 222. Lifting daily, arms are noticeably bigger, eating at a deficit. Im mad and want to get my bf down.
>>75717469Either you're not counting properly, you miscalculated your TDEE, or you have some anomalous medical condition causing you to not lose weight. Most likely the first one.
>>75717534Your bf loves you and appreciates all the effort you're doing for him. No need to get him down.
Any experiences with Cronometer?Seems to be the best one that also has a webapp not just mobile.Don't want to use MyFitnessPal as it has a bad reputation and LoseIt seems to not support the web app.
>Doing 48hr fasts this month>Already lost 20lbs in 2 weeksGod I just need to quit smoking and gooning. Any tips?
>>75716668No... scale go up. By 3lbs in a week and it won't budge now.
>>75717469Maybe try actually eating at a deficit first
>>75717593Congrats on the weight loss.I only every smoked 10 or so cigarettes (total) when I was trying it and even though I quit right there it was a struggle. (I get easily addicted to stuff, which is why I refuse most medication now. Like tramadol for spine.)My father used to put lemon juice on his cigs to make them taste bad and help with discipline, maybe you can try that combined with nicotine gum or patches.As for gooning, to me it's the greatest cope together with manga. Waifu is laifu and all that.Honestly don't do too much at once, because you'll have a harder time sticking to it and will lose motivation easier. Once you break one of your daily/weekly goals you'll be tempted to break another. "It's fucked anyways, might as well."Just get your life in order slowly and once things are good you'll naturally lose this habit as it is a literal cope mechanic. If you no longer have anything to cope with you wont need to do it.
>>75717593>20lbs in weeksLmao you wish
>>75717421(a) "getting healthy on your own" my dude every day you're a fat fuck you're killing yourself slowly. Take the help you can get. (b) "side effects" none are as bad as the side effects of being a lard. (c) "succumb to drugs" we use drugs all the time--they're not automatically bad things
>>75717635Possible for whales

>>75717593I am eating a light meal under 400-500kcal one day and fasting other. I definitely can do two days but my mom is staying with me and she barely accepted my diet as is2 more weeks and I will be free

I'll be done in about 30 days and plan on holding my weight with the tirz for the whole summer. >>75715741>I refuse to take ozempic>Ngmi
>>75717539>anomalous medical conditionI don't even think these exist because if he was locked in a room with no food and only water for 2 weeks and he would eventually lose weight.
>>75717548I use chronometer. The entries are all curated by their team so when you scan or search for food you can trust the macros are accurate. I kept getting BTFO by my fitness pal's awful entries until I switched to this.
>>75717469Be very very wary of dieticians and nutritionists. A REGISTERED DIETICIAN is real and had to pass college, a nutritionist is any jerk off. Even still, and RD can have very wild and crazy ideas like HAES and not cutting out food groups and intuitive eating. Make sure they have a very solid background. Picrel has all the paperwork but believes in feeding children whatever they want because anorexia or some shit
>>75717732I lost
>>75717746Thanks for vouching for it I'll start using it.
>>75717752Here's another one who's front page seems fine and promotes nutritious foods, but also says you can't talk to kids about healthy food because it... makes them anorexic.
It's funny how ozempic revealed how all the "body positivity" meme was fake.Pretty much every fat bitch that screamed "NOOO BEING LE CURVY AND LE BIG IS NORMAL AND HEALTHY!!!" 6 months ago is now skinny randomly (ozempic) and showing off how skinny they are
>>75716346>I probably burned about 5,400 caloriesdelusional
>do jumping jacks>knees and back start to hurt.Am I doing something wrong?
t minus 2 hours left of my 48 hour fastright now i should be experiencing:>ketosis>low insulin>autophagy
>>75717910All those things are a meme
Ate somewhere around maintenance and then went biking for 1 and a half hour.>>75717889As long as it's not sharp pain then that's normal. It will go away if you workout consistently.
>>75716645Hmmm I love tuna, eat 'em straight outta the can sometimes!
>>75717915something's gotta happen if you dont eat for two days
>>75715353>egg white crustYikes
>>75717910>autophagyyou automatically become gay if you fast?weird
>fast>stomach shrinks>feel stuffed after 1 plateb-b-but you will just binge eat when you break your fast
>>75717910The best way to stress your body is through exercise because you actually get benefits from it.Do zone 1/2 cardio to burn fat and lift weights to retain muscle.Fasting will put you in starvation mode and your body will consume your muscles for energy, because obviously you can't lift weights while fasting.Don't be lazy.
>>75717954Post body
>>75717954Yea I have no idea why faggots here have such a hate boner for fasting. I've gone from being able to demolish 20 hot wings to just barely finishing 10 once I started fasting. Your stomach is oversized when you're a frequent eating fatass, and it shrinks on a more normal diet like OMAD or IF.
>>75717954>>75717975Because it only takes one bad day, and then suddenly you'll have a bigger appetite. And you will fall back into old patterns.Don't rely on fasting if you're not comfortable doing periodic fasts for the rest of your life.
>>75717968>your body will consume your muscles for energy>you can't lift weights while fastingWhy are you spreading such wrong, stupid bullshit? Where do you hear this moronic garbage in the first place?
>>757178876'4 285 lbs.-14 miles walked at 4 mph 2482 calories-45 minutes of calistehtnics 200 calories-Normal daily expenditure 2700 calories2482+200+2700 = 5382
>>75717975Lmao retard
>>75717548'ave chronometer, 'ove it, but do I use it? nah. gregmaxxing currently
>Fasting will put you in starvation modeI hate the "starvation mode" memeIts not even funny
>>75717975You get used to eating less the longer you eat less. I eat 3-4 meals a day and exercise and lost 23kgs last year.When fasting you have no energy to exercise so yeah you lose weight but in a shitty way because you feel lethargic all the time and lose a ton of muscle.
>>75717997I look like this and say this
I'm thinking of going down to 1200 calories from 1500 for the next 10 weeks.It's the only way to drop from obese to overweight in those 10 weeks, That and my 20k+ stepsI won't feel hungry on 1200, as I already do 1200 some days unintentionally.
>>75717985Do you lift weights fastard? I would love to see you lift lmfao would be hilarious.
>>75717889If you are really fat don't do these high joint strain exercises.
>>75718001>>75718009I've hit PRs during a fast, you retards don't know what you're talking about.
>>75717997You hate it because it's true. You don't want to put in the work so you look for shortcuts.>lmao bro just don't eat it's ez no downsides!
>>75717982nigga you are supposed to start lifting after you shed your fat, then you can eat bigger meals
>>75718019>You hate it because it's trueYou got me anon, how will i ever recover
>>75718021future powershitter right here
>>75718015To do shit like this when fat make sure you go easy and don't skip leg day to strengthen your leg muscles.It also depends how fat you are. If you're too fat just don't do it.
>>75718023You can recover by listening to your body and eating when hungry, just eat less and increase food quality. Also exercise every day.
Fastard shills out in full force today
>Fastards shitting up the general because they can't maintain a thread by themselvesMany such cases
>can barely make a deficit (if any)>"muh fastards don't belong here!!!!111one"Why cico-tards are like this?
>>75718015Post body let's see what that 135lb bench pr looks like
>accidently stirred the hornests nest by doing my first 48 hour fast everjeez
>>75718033Fat and too fat ARE when you're supposed to do it. This is fucking /fat/. No shit fasting would be actually detrimental to someone who is already 7%-8% bf, but it's completely fine for everyone else.
Remember, there is no need to count calories if you just eat nothing
>>75718028lmfao
>>75718052Envy. Most fatties here drops their "diet" the moment their moms bring cookies to their room and can't even imagine how anyone can go without food more than a day.
>>75718067Wrong reply, meant for >>75717889
>tfw trying to curb porn and junk food addiction
>>75718008I guesstimate rather than count my calories exactly; but I believe I've been on roughly 1200-1500 calories for over a month now, sometimes less, and have made good progress in that time. It's doable, anon.
>>75718087What are you implying, retard? It's also a no brainer you don't do cardio that'll fuck your joints when you're a fat fuck. 200lb+ manlets or 250lb+ men shouldn't break into a sprint when they're starting out, no shit. You go to the gym and lift weights. You want any cardio, you take a walk. Can even do incline/uphill walking on the treadmills for more burn.
>>75717889What's your height and weight? If you are really fat jumping jacks might be too high impact at the moment. An alternative would be weightless squats (ass to ground) and push ups, on your knees if neccessary. Both will get your heart rate up and also build up muscle. Between those two exercises it is close to a fully body work out. Building up muscle is really helpful for getting leaner as you will burn more calories naturally the more muscle you have, also you build more physical strength and endurance which lets you be more active, longer to burn even more calories which makes you even leaner and in turn again lets you be more active longer. Plus muscles help with metabolic health as they store the majority of your body's glycogen. This creates a bigger buffer so it is easier for your body to lower blood sugar levels as it has bigger glycogen storage capacity.
>noooo you can't eat protein, it'll make you fat!Why are they so dumb?
>>75718119I'm not implying anything, I just told you that my post >>75718033 was meant as a reply for >>75717889>no shitClearly that guy didn't know because he was doing jumping jacks until his shit started hurting.
>>75718140>writing the month firstWhy?Either you go >day-month-yearOr you go>year-month dayNEVER GO>month-day-yearIt makes no sense
>>757181256 3 and 250lbs. I thought jumping jacks would be easy to add on but I guess I will try that.
what the fuck do i even refeed on?do you even need to "refeed" after just 48 hours
>stomach is becoming balled up homework>ass is starting t feel like cottage cheese
>>75718195Bro shut the fuck up about your fast
>>75718207That's good bro, your losing fat and the skin is now more empty. Should feel like little marbles or pebbles in the area that just lost the adipose tissue
>>75718195Something small around 500cals, low fat. Then an hour later whatever it doesn't matter.
>>75718195Preferably something with more calories then you burned by sitting on the computer shitting up fat and jerking to trans porn for the last 48 hours
>>75718168>6 3 and 250lbs.I would think Jumping Jacks would be doable at that height and weight, but if your joints themselves hurt and it isn't just muscle soreness from working out then I would approach them gingerly. You can always lose a bit more weight and then try again a little lighter.
>>75718195i just eat what ever. never had any problems even after 96h going straight in and eating with out any pre-meals
>>75717147Enjoy it while it lasts. It'll start feeling like not enough eventually but if you're careful about managing your deficit that won't happen for months.
>142 pounds down>now having back problems when sleeping on side>have to sleep in tiger knee position>back still acts up a bitREEEEEEEE IM NOT USED TO BONES MATTERING
trash or nah in moderate uses?
>>75718164Because that's how you do it here.
>>75718249>It'll start feeling like not enough eventually Might be the case. I'm more worried about it not being convenient enough.Everything bad is always at arms reach basically, easy to get, while I have to go out of my way to get healthy stuff and avoid the snacks.Like measuring how much I eat on a scale doesn't seem sustainable.I'll need to get proper containers or something an learn about meal prepping so I only have to think about stuff I eat twice a week max.Maybe I should get some measuring cups or I honestly don't know.I put the cut up chicken breasts in a mug (scale can zero out) with a spoon then dumped it into the tortillas from there. It's actually ridiculous, but I was hyped that I started finally.Unless I make things effortless this feels doomed to fail.
>>75718296Why would it be trash? Nigga who cares drink it
>>75718329Just drink three protein shakes a day and eat a whole cucumber or 1lb bag of spinach. Boom solved
>>75718296>caffeine and sucralose slopJust have a cup of half-caff in the morning. Why do you 'need' more?
>>75718296>""""""coffee"""""" for zoomers who can't drink coffeewhy everything gotta be so sweet for you guys to enjoy it
>>75714466Woke up to a wet dream this morning, probably the most intense nut I've had in months. It shot out like those metal cutters that use highly pressured water. My only regret is jerking off again afterwards.I was on a 2 week clean noFap/noporn streak
>>75718340It absolutely amazes me how people who are fat sperg about an artificial sweetener or caffeine. I guarantee if you took a fat ass vs someone who is fit and drinks 12 diet cokes a day the fit persons blood work would be so much better than the fat conspiracy retard who avoids le evil big pharma foods.
