Sucralose tastes like ass, I'm trying to find bitter/tart drinks and even stuff I find listed as sour has it. I don't mind a drink being not sweet at all, I like pickle juice. Anyone try those ghost zero sugar drinks before?
>>75730731Just drink water cofee and tea retard
>>75730737None of those are sour though and kombucha still has too much sugar left in it
Confess
I want to start going to the gym to lose weight and be healthier but I don't want to because it's a 20 minute drive both ways and it's hard
>>75730468A few weeks and they're gone, that's sugar withdrawal. I'm assuming you're a fellow sweet tooth?
>>75730770I already confessed last thread and got shat on for it.
>>75730821Small price to pay for absolution.
>>75730770I'm hungry
I think I developed insomnia from drinking too much Monster Zero Ultra for my weight loss. I'm averaging like 4 hours of sleep a night and there was one night I Couldn't sleep at all. This shit was not worth it. Sleep was my only respite from life. I don't even know why I lost weight, I'm still hideous.
>>75730740You said bitter, coffee and tea are both bitter.
>>75730770First week back on my deficit and actually done good
>>75730770Nothing to confess father, dab
>>75730770It’s summer in Australia,PublicHoliday next weekend, trip away with the boys this weekend. Hard to not drink alcohol and be a fat lard.
tfw scale didnt go down this morning
>>75730770Finally went out for a walk again. I live in a tourist town and a bunch of scum comes over during the season so I was using that as an excuse to stay home, but I went out today.
I've been staying 66kg for a week now on a 1200 calorie deficit and 5-20 carbs a day wtf
>>75730770It’s a bumpy hill and I’m honestly fine with that. As long as I feel good about my progress is all that matters. There’s a difference between being the “OOOOOO I WANNA MASTURBATE TO MYSELF IN THE MIRROR” type of person and doing the “Looks good so far, just needs more improvements” type of person
>>75730791No gym closer? Home gym not an option? You can't multitask like going to the gym on the way to or from the store or work?
>>75730770I had 2 pieces of peanut butter toast and it's so not filling. 1 have 400cals left for the day I need 60g of protein. Looks like it's protein shake and vegetables for dindin
>>75731099Are you a woman?
>>75731115No, I'm 5'7
>>75731099>a week>1200 calorie deficitFluctuation can still hide your weight loss if your timeframe and deficit are that small.
>>75730723fuck fuck fuck brosI was doing so good. I lost 120lbs last year. Then the holidays started rolling around and I just stopped. I've been trying, I've been cico, but it's like I have a sudden dopamine addiction and I need sugar and booze to keep myself sane. No progress for the last 3 months. How can I get back into it?
>>75731102The secret is that no one on earth wants to masturbate to themselves. No matter how good you look, you will always think it's just barely good enough.If you have a billion dollars and 5%bf and a supermodel wife, you will still be unhappy.
>Dieted with a 750 calories deficit for 7 months>Never hungry>Decided to increase a little bit (to 1100) to make things go a little faster>Hungry all the fucking time nowBros I can't fall asleep help
>>75731143Take back control by ritualizing your actions.
>>75731143By not eating refined sugar and booze?If you want something sweet so bad, go for fruit or even diet drinks.Alcohol's a different beast. That shit takes actual commitment and willpower to overcome.
Your option on keto or low carb diets? I know calories matter as well but do those make a big factor.
>>75731158Wake up harder by popping 200mg caffeine when you wake up every morning (this will also help with keeping very regular bowel movements)Stay more active. Burn yourself out and exhaust yourself.
>Trivializes your cutThese and the buffalo ones are so fucking tastyI’ve had like 9 of them today
>>75731189The weirdest thing about the booze is that I didn't really drink all year. Only a little when visiting friends. I've never been a big drinker in my life, aside from the standard period of exuberance when I first discovered booze as a young adult. Then suddenly 10 years later over the winter I'm getting drunk like 3 times a week
>>75731210> 9 of themDon't do that.Yes, it's light tuna, yes it has lower levels of heavy metals, mercury in particular, than albacore tuna.It's considered safe to eat them in small quantity.Not 9 at a time.Get some variety in your diet for crying out loud.
>>75731201Do what works for you.If going keto helps you stick to your goals, great.My only advice here:- protein is the priority. make sure you get enough every day.- saturated fat is a bad idea. avoid foods with a lot of it.- processed carbs are problematic. prefer carbs from whole vegetables and whole fruits.Past that, you do you.
>>75730874Eat at maintenance and wean off of it. You should be feeling better in 2 weeks.
>>75731231>Not 9 at a time.How else am I supposed to hit my protein then?I had 4 for lunch and 5 for dinner alongside veggies btw
>>75731244I lean into salmon, chicken, (lean) beef, sardines, eggs, shrimp, and beans for protein rich meals.But I also have a morning coffee with a bunch of protein powder, and a warm bone broth before bed, so that helps to pad the numbers.
>>75730737coffee is for anxious little faggots that like to pretend they aren't addicted to socially accepted meth
>>75731244Eat chicken
>>75731250You sound mad
>>75731137Jesus. Go to the gym
>>75731201Keto and Low carb kills my appetite. I lost a bunch of weight in a short period using it. My problem is when I went back to carbs, I was still eating poorly so put a lot of weight back on. I've found eating a balanced diet, with diet breaks has helped me losing weight in a more sustainable manner. I still eat treats most days, just in moderation. All or nothing diets don't work for me. You're experience may be different
>>75731290you should be mad toothats how changes are made
>>75731323All or nothing diets are a scam by design. Retards who can't read the food pyramid are most likely to fall for it.>inb4 amerimutt who thinks cereal is a whole grain food has a lot to tell me about food pyramid
>>75731250Coffee improves my workouts, are you gonna cry like a little bitch about it?
>>75731240>you MUST eat X amount of protein>eat fruit Shit advice kys
>>75731484This, you can gain muscle going as low as 0.3g/kg, it will just be slower.Even most fit people need barely 0.6g/kg especially to look good and not like a gymfaggot.
Will having a packet of Mr Noodles beef ramen seasoning powder break my fast?
>>75731540no, you need to eat "cereal" made from milled corn with high added sugar content to really break it
>>75730770I gained weight because of my medication. now that I'm off it I'm shedding pounds really fast but I don't know if I should go back on my meds or not
>>75731540Does it have calories? If so yes, if not, no.
>>75731553Let me rephrase it. Will it kick my body out of ketosis? I can not find the nutritional information anywhere.
>>75731540>>75731568Fat shit
>>75731568Yes, it probably will. The noodles aren't the only source of calories in ramen, the broth has them as well. Very little comparatively but they're still there.
>>75731583Thank you. That's a shame but I'm not going to shed any tears over it. I was just thinking I might go for another 12 hours since I started my 48 hour early in the morning instead of at dinner. If it's going to break it anyway I'll have a couple of boiled eggs.
>>75731604Fasting doesn't work
I just noticed my scale differs by about 2kg depending on where I put it
>>75730731At some point while dieting, i stopped craving sweets but crave sour fruits like crazy. I like squeezing half a lemon on a grapefruit half, not too much sugar and very sour. As for drinks, buy malic and maybe tartaric acid then add them to your drinks. I mix a pinch with topo chico and stur. Sour and slightly bitter fruity soda. If im not feeling bitter i might increase the malic acid and add thaumatin, and then it tastes almost like sour candy soda. I actually like the taste of sucralose but stay away from it bc i always seem to stall when i have it. Stevia doesnt give me any issues and while i originally didnt like the slightly bitter taste it has, its really grown on me. Outside of stur and green cola, i dont see many drinks that use only stevia. Though 9 times out of 10 i just drink plain fizzy water. Its nice and acidic on its own and doesnt really need flavoring. >>75730874Im not an energy drink person but L-theanine helps me sleep when i crave something caffinated at 9pm. A lot of caffeine in a day for me would be 120mg which is about one energy drink's worth so idk just how much it will help in your case
>>75731583Ketosis is about carbs anon. >>75731604Probably yes. Check how much carb it has. A general guidance is you need less than 20mg carbs daily
Starting to lock in again bros. Lost all my momentum over the Christmas break but slowly starting to get my diet back on point. I freakin love the gym, but I think its making me more hungry this time round than last time which is making it harder to just lose weight. I know the solution is maybe dial back the training and focus on lowering cals and walking but man, Ive finally got my lifts dialed and feeling stronger every week and all my little niggling injuries have healed up since eating slightly more. Im conflicted.
>>75731641All these excuses to eat more. NGMI
>>75731613Pplbe dumb and believe in extreme solutions
>>75731613I fast 8 hours everyday and it works for me.
Reduce your caloric consumption
>>75731648Can't actually argue with that.
>>75731654While sleeping?
>>75731678yeah
>>75731613Ive never been able to lose weight with fasting and keep it off, but fasting is really good at fixing issues with gut and digestion. Even one really good week long fast (water only or dry) can get rid of craving sweets and with good B6 and GABA consumption in the refeed phase, help restore gut permeability to normal levels (for those with "leaky" gut or celiac like me. Ever since i started viewing fasting as a gut/metabolism reset, ive been able to break out of stalls a lot easier.
>>757316548h aint a 'fast'
>>75731706Anything 24 hours or less isn't really a fast in my opinion. That's just eating once a day.
sup /fat/ties, got myself scanned today. I thought I would be way higher bf% and lower lean mass.thoughts?
>>75731723also for reference, 183cm tall, 29y/o male
>>75731448If you don't go back to exactly how you were eating before the diet you can probably make it work. I just didn't have a plan once the diet ended. I just started a 2 week protein sparing modified fast to drop 2.5kg for a weight class before Feb 10 and I feel like I have enough knowledge now to not immediately fuck it up after because ive learned what eating at maintenance for several months over the last year looks/feels like.
>>75731723I had pretty much the same numbers maybe 4 months ago. I lost 8kgs and no one said anything, I lost another 2 and I started to get compliments and the Bros at the gym started giving me fist bumps. You'll start to look good below 18%How long you been lifting? 80kgs lbm is pretty good
>>75731723You a lefty too? Uncanny
>>75730791
>>75731143>I've been cico>No progress for the last 3 months.
>>75731753seriouslyI filled a backpack with waterbottles and used that as a weight until I saved enough money for real weightsand it was fun
>>75731706How about you fuck offDown this morning. I'll be down again tomorrow and you fattys can cry into your mantitties
Hello fellow fats I'm 40 bmi and I plan on getting surgery this year what are ya'lls honest opinions on getting bariatric surgery? I take medication which makes weightloss almost impossible and I've been trying to lose it for many years no only gaining more.
>>75731750Yeah>>75731747Lowest i've been in the last 3-4 years was 92kg, i could start to see ab definition coming in under specific lighting. Felt good, but I still looked like a fat cunt. Was very weird and made me insecure. This scan gave me big ego boost.
>>75731770>I take medication which makes weightloss almost impossibleWhy? Is your medication 3 large pizzas a day? What medications gives someone 40bmi
>>75731770Why do you want to know what people who are doing it the hard way think? We think you're weak and lazy and gay and we hope you go through the surgery, loose the weight and then put it all back on.
>>75731774Antipsychotics make you eat like a motherfucker. One of the reasons I won't take them and continue to be a paycho
>>75731774>>75731775refer to this please >>75731779 Don't say not to take them I can't afford I dont want to start hallucinating while Im driving
>>75731779Are those antipsychotic pills forcefully putting food at your mouth or something? Damn medicine came a long way
>>75731770>>75731779Why not just take ozempic?
>>75731779Smoke meth and torment your local gym goers
>>75731770
>>75731786ozempic where I'm at is not covered by insurance but surgery is
>>75731771Only starting to see them at 92? I've got a 4pac at 97. Not super defined, but it's there. Just different fat storage? You got love handles? I'm still trying to shake these fucking things and I go through waves where my pecs full and where the nipple area looks like a small tit. Fucking sucks.I've got 80kgs lbm and this is the first cut where I feel happy with my size as i shrink. I'm getting seperation in the delts and tri really pops when standing front on. I've been cutting real slow to preserve as much issue as possible. I'd like to be 15% at 95kgs. Even if it's not going to happen. I had kids and I really let myself go. finally at a point where I have the energy to cut and it fucking rocks. My son saw me with my shirt off for the first time in a while and he said 'wow dad you look really muscly'Good luck bro, wagmi
>>75731791how about you wean off the crack a little you fat nigger it seems you're problems are all in your head more than mine are
Fucking love handle reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ok Ill cut from 96kg to 86kg now
>>75731785Stfu fatty you've been sticking to your diet since new year's and you think you know everything about willpower
>>75731768God, I can't wait to eat maintenance again. Look at all those calories you get to spend.I've been eating 1300~1200 for like 4 months now, so jealous.
>>75731810But it online
>>75731818yeah right>>75731785playing dumb or are you actually this stupid cause that cant what skin color are you are you a retarted cracker or a retarted nog
next week im doing some sort of PSMF for two days i am sick and tired of this gut
>told myself I'd get abs as a present to myself in April>less 2 1/2 months left and I still have 20 lbs to goFuck, it's time to lock in.
>>75731784I said I won't take them. They recommend them to me for autism. You definitely should take them if your psychotic
>>75731821This is my extreme cut. Go to the gym for 15 years and you get to eat more.
>>75731822It's too expensive every month plus you'll likely take it for a very long time. Surgery is one time and I'm in the safest country I can be to do it. I read a story about another person that was on antipsychotics and her wish was to do the surgery and after she did it she went from being morbidly obese to normal weight and if it worked for her why shouldn't it work for me
>>75731818Get your pills and shove some junk food into your mouth and continue lying yourself and being "happy" anon. If you don't accept that it is entirely at your hand that you are not losing weight, you will never make it. After the surgery you will gain all your weight back. Go watch some my 600lb of life failures, your kind is dime a dozen.
>>75731815>you are problems are all in your headbrother are you ok, take your meds literal schizo.>>75731814Nah I started to see them around the high 90s. But yeah most of my fat is on my trunk/torso/belly, lots of muscle on legs and my arms look small (imo). Wholesome part about your son, I bet that felt great. Good on you bro.
>>75731841Bro, my pills are ritalin. I'm here to keep me accountable until I get to 12%You're here so strangers don't look at you like a zoo animal. Enjoy to loose skin and 0 pussy.
>>75731841It's got nothing to do with willpower let me explain it to your retard mongoloid brain. The medication we take blocks your dopamine receptors from getting overloaded with dopamine which is what schizophrenics have problems with. Too much pointless dopamine gets into the brain basically. The medication blocks these receptors and you're left with very little dopamine. So to get your dopamine a little higher your brain tells you to eat so you can be a better mood. That's it. You don't have to deal with low dopamine or hallucinations or anything. You're no less stronger or better than a steroid user in my eyes. You have your natural hormones and your natural dopamine and your natural satiety. You have no problems and are on baby mode while we are on super difficulty and you are bRAGGING. what a loser you are.
>>75731827Speak human fatty. I am saying that he buys (more likely orders) junk food and then puts that junk food in his mouth and repeats that every hour for him to be 40 bmi. Everything is under his control while all of this is happening
Today I will make protein brownies to see if they taste like cardboard. Will update later.
>>75731849I'm not your brother faggot and what I took my meds already so smart of you to notice Im a schizo you're a dumb privileged fatass and if I werent takling meds I would be underweight even so take your insult and shove it up your ass because youre not taking anything and you're here posting in a fat thread you fucking fatass bitch.
>>75731861>BLA BLA BLA Not gonna read it. Show me a webm that pills forcefully shoving food into someone's throat. Until then I will not accept some pills making "losing weight almost impossible"
Lost 8 kilo since I started losing weight. Feeling pretty good, yes I'm still fat as fuck but it's amazing how much of a difference those 8 kilos make. I have 3 meals of about 600 calories a day, and a snack or a beer in the evening
>>75731867What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills.Anyway, stop believe your delusions that I'm your enemy. Go take your meds.
>>75731862What does that matter you can lose weighteating pizza once in a while it's CICO what are you on about? When I get the surgery I will still eat pizza but instead of eating all the pizza I'll eat two slices are you this retarted?
>>75731867>youre not taking anythingYou're wrong, I'm also schizophrenic and unmedicated. You're just an emotional bitch. Control yourself.
>>75731878>seething cause hes on easy-mode>y-yeah g-go take you meds schizo>sure showed him
>>75731880No you will eat two pizzas just more slowly. After a few months your stomach will return back to its original state and you will be even more fat in a year. But don't worry, pills are making you do that. It is not your fault
>>75731886this is deviating from the thread but you can't control imbalances in the brain the same way you can't control or stop your blood from flowing through your body.
>>75731861
>>75731890oh you're a doctor now are you you know better than a doctor what degree did you get doctor?
>>75731896I have a doctorate on fatties yes. My expertise is fatties that won't make it and you are one.
>>75731899go suck a nigger dick how bout that huh
geez people here are seething cause they have no insurance and can't afford surgery havent got this many yous since last year
>Measured my waist today>Went from 112 to 106 cm>It feels like I didn't get skinnier at allI know it is hard to spot changes when you're a fatass losing weight but damn
>>75731156Not true i knew one such narcissist who perked off in the mirror abd kept mirrors in his room so he coukd see "how great he was doing"
>>75731921 I was the exact same. I lost 10kg and no one noticed at my sons birthday in late November. I lost another 2.5kgs and at Christmas each member of my family came up and said hey you looking good. I think it was when I hit 20% bodyfat. Just keep going bro
>>75730770I keep trying to lose weight but can't stick to my deficit. I over-eat everyday.
Dont be fat
>>75730770I got so hungry while fasting that I started chewing on the leftover cartilage of my wife's chicken drumsticks then spat it out. It tasted great.
>>75731891Sure you can, it is called self control. Most of us here enjoy eating large amounts of high calorie food here but we are trying not to do that.
>>75732104Like I said before I drive maybe you dont but I do and I can't afford to have an accident while I'm going through psychosis
>>75732116No one is telling you to stop taking pills anon. Just deal with the cravings. Are you going to drive your car into a donut factory if you don't eat?
One day, I'll wake up 50kg lighter, and on that day I'll feel good.
i am quitting peanut butter, now what do i put in my cottage cheese instead

>>75732326I was about 115kg 2 weeks ago. 111.6kg now. I dieted a bit before that as well but didn't track my progress.Yeah it is fast at the moment but my current diet does not bother me. I will probably eat a bit more once I hit 90kg or so and it will slowdown as my tdee lowers
>>75730723I'm relatively skinny now after being a morbidly obese the first 20 years of my life. would it be normal to have to wear a knee brace on my right knee when exercising to avoid pain or discomfort? When running or squatting I feel so uncomfortable without a brace (I'm being genuine when I say squatting without a knee brace hurt so much I was on the verge of tears) but it feels 100% fine squatting or running a 5k when I'm wearing one.

>>75732422From 124 kg down to 95 kgStarted in June.Still sedentary, no exercise, gonna go to a gym any day now.Caused multiple meltdowns by posting food I eat here.At first I thought that was funny but then the keto schizo came and I realized anons ITT are having it pretty bad already, so I don't mention Dr Pepper as often nowadays.Still drink it often, though.I don't really have progress photos, but I'm looking much better than I used to and went from stretching the final notch on my belt to using the fourth-last one instead.90~100 kg is probably an ideal weight for me, but I don't have enough muscle mass for that.Without lifting, I'll need to drop well below 80 kg to be "fit".I'm planning on going until either of the two things happen: my abs become visible or I get noticeable loose skin.
>>75732447Sure thing buddy
>>75732453Post body, you wont.
>>75731143do a 48+ hour water fast or a prolon fasting-mimicking diet. for me it resets cravings quite effectively
>>75732460That's right I won't - I don't wanna.
>>75732455Glad I have a friend like you. <3
>>75732467Yeah, you haven't lost any weight.
>>75731156I do and I have before
>>75732470Whatever helps you sleep at night.
>>75732453>>75732467So you went from fat to skinny fat? Sad
>>75732475I sleep fine since i'm not obese like you
>>75732482Ackchually, I'm categorically "overweight".Haven't been "obese" for a while now.

>>75732492Whatever helps you cope, my lard friend ;^)
>>75732491typo. I'm 196
>>75732495I'm not the one larping for attention
>>75732499Indeed, you aren't larping.You are a genuine schizo, my friend.

>>75732501One of us is lying about losing weight. I'd say that person is the schizo.
>>75732491>>75732496>>75732503>186>196>198Are you mentally retarded?
>>75732504>YOU ARE LYING>BECAUSE . . . YOU JUST ARE REEEEEEOne of us is a schizo indeed.So following your logic, that person is lying about their weight loss.So why are you lying about your weight loss, my schizo friend?
>>75732515Seems like i hit a nerve, not my fault your life is so empty and pointless you need to larp about losing weight.
>>75732520>Seems like i hit a nerveDoes it to you, now?Well, you were deep in your fantasies for a while now, projecting your insecurities on me unprompted, so I guess it does.Again, whatever floats your boat, anon.If thinking I'm lying makes you cope easier with whatever you're going through - then continue believing that!
>>75732535>Does it to you, now?lmao ESL
I need some help. I have been doing good on my weight loss journey. I have finally hit my goal of 250 lbs and am now working towards my next goal of 200. However I am at a cross roads both emotionally and physically. Right now my routine is working out Sun/Tues/Thursday with about an hour and a half walk everyday and a 4+ hour walk on Tuesday/Wednesday since I have those days off and more time. Thing is though is on my off days I generally do not really do anything. Not only do I feel restless, but I am having some things going on in my life that keeps occupying my mind. Sitting and doing nothing or trying to distract myself with video games and TV is not working and I have little motivation for it because of my issues. However, working out has been doing a good job of clearing my mind. I have been told that I really should not be working out everyday as letting the body rest will help more in both losing weight and building muscle, but sitting still is letting my emotions take over my mind, making me lose motivation, hope and will. This is specially hard because I am a stress eater as well and the temptation is getting more and more powerful. What are some simple exercises that I can do to help distract and keep me from getting wrapped in to my emotions and solve my restlessness? I said that once I hit my goal of 250 I would start to look in to muscle growth, but I don't have much equipment and I am still too shy to go to a gym. Are there any light workouts or cardio that can help me work out my arms and core that aren't to straining? Or maybe I should just do some more light cardio? With all the snow I have just been doing the basic march in place exercise when it is too cold out and I feel like I am working up much more of a sweat than just walking while still being not too crazy to be able to do my more intense routines on my on days.

>>75732272what do you even eat?
>>75732341what app is this
>>75732556>Are there any light workouts or cardio that can help me work out my arms and core that aren't to straining?Bodyweight squatsWalking lungesStanding pushups against a dinner table or a wallPlankSide plankBird dog
>>75732591Anon that's a spreadsheet with a graph on it. Microsoft Excel, or Google Sheets most likely.
>>75730723>walk 20 min to gym>in the gym go straight to the treadmill>walk 1 hour>go home>refuse to elaboratethis is me
>>75732556go swimming. 1 hour swimming = 1000 kcal burned.
>>75732556also the reason is you feel restless is because you are doing 4 hour walks anon. your body is probably tired. so do more intensive stuff for less time like swimming which I suggested earlier. You slog through 4 hours of walking of course you will be feeling half dead and don't wanna do anything.
>weigh myself because why not>lost two kilosAww yeaahhh.
>>75732556>goal of 250 lbs>emotionally>I really should not be working out everyday>I am a stress eaterLmao
>>75732768Nice job anon. Your efforts are paying off.
>>75730770No real dinner for me today. I have sinned.
losing weight has made my dick grow.i'll post a picture of it if anyones interested
>>75732964Is that lays the potato chips and one package is 600kcal? Jesus
>>75732979Please do
>>75732980Yeah. It's a big one. Chili and Lime is my kryptonite.I'm going out for Ramen tomorrow so probably skipping breakfast as well. Gonna be fun.

>>75732556>goal of 250lbs
>>75731870Oh, busted!
>>75732964It's not the end of the world, and it looks like you are adapting and rolling with the punches. Good Job anon.
>>75732980>>75733000Stay away from chips. Nothing about them are healthy. Not even the potatoes they're made out of are enough to save them from the cheap oils and ridiculous amounts of sodium.
>>75733081More like he is rolling in general lol. Because he is fat lololol
Are beans good or bad
>>75733218Good source of fiber!
>>75733218Good. Micronutrient rich and filling.
>>75731484No, I think it's darn good advice.You're sabotaging your progress if you don't get enough protein.Fruits. Do you *have to* eat fruits? I guess not. But if you feel an urge to eat something sweet, you're much better off eating a whole fruit or some berries, than unwrapping whatever processed slop they've sold you.More generally, don't sleep on phytonutrients. Yes, fresh food is more expensive, but do your best.>>75731568No. The little packets of flavor are almost entirely salt, with a bit of sugar, some MSG and various nonsense.The sugar in that packet is less than a gram and it is not sufficient to kick you of ketosis.
>>75733218Beans are great. They have a lot of fiber and protein.
>>75733218bad too much carbs and farts
>>75732371who the fuck microwaves vegetablesrice is the easiest thing to cook and lasts a couple dayschicken breasts suck, but if you're just going to fry them then it's a waste of their godlike macrosseriously, just look up high protein recipes online. if you don't want to waste time cooking then learn to meal prep.
>>75733328>>75731568As for finding nutritional information, check out https://maruchan.com/products/ramen/chicken-flavor for example.Open the "Ingredients" section, the "Soup base" is the flavor packet.Open the "Nutrition Facts" section, the "Incl. Added Sugar" is the sugar from the packet.
>>75733218Beans are probably the best option there is if you're eating carbs. Absolutely goated food category.
>>75733382It is not just sugar anon, it is carbs. And 27gr (excluding fiber 26gr) will likely kick you out of ketosisCan people stop giving advice they have no idea of

The zoomieschizo has resorted to this?
>>75733407> Can people stop giving advice they have no idea ofThat would be nice.For example in your case, you would be well served by reading the original question again and realizing it was asking about the little flavor packet only, not about eating the noodles.
>>75733468Whoops, apologies anon
>carbs badDo niggas really
>>75732805>>75733045I guess for context so I don't feel like a complete idiot: I've been breaking up my weight loss in to chunks. Instead of focusing purely on getting down to 170 or less, I've set it to smaller bits as I felt like I was getting too overwhelmed. I was 310 and I put my curret goal to 250. Now that I have hit that, my next goal is 200. I got this idea from here actually as I was confused on how/what sets and reps where. I thought that working out was just going till you where too tired and I was having trouble doing anything because I was just trying to push myself too hard on something I need to build up. Doing this, I felt like I have made actual and faster progress. I really haven't been keeping full track of how much time I have been losing weight as I was becoming overly obessed with how much I was losing, but now that I have been able too get this far and see and feel results I will be keeping better tabs and I think that if I take the same approch and weigh myself in smaller chunks than hyper obsessivly then I might be able to actually keep track better and see what needs to be changed.
Just got back from a 2 hour bike ride. Nighttime biking is comfy. I throw on some audiobook and zone out.
Greetings lads, aspiring future-non-fatass here looking to lose weight at a faster pace. Where do you guys get your recipes? I'm running mostly off of those small frozen pre-packaged meals, and while I have been losing weight consistently, I'd like to take it to the next level by actually cooking for myself. Luckily, since I was raised on my mother's cooking, I'll eat just about anything.
>>75733676boiled eggs, I put em in the water for like 6 minutes or something
Why is everyone always so angry in this thread
>>75733712*hangry.
>>75733712Because its filled with larping losers making a mockery of the ones actually losing weight
>>75733676I'm with that other anon. I can't cook for shit so I'll end up eating the same few healthy items. Boiled or scrambled eggs, Ensures, canned tuna, baked beans, sandwiches, rice.
Why did someone start shit posting? What set them off?
>>75733750He was le owning the thread by having thousands of images of people shitting on each other saved on his computer
>>75733676My costco life hack for the cheapest easiest meals. Buy frozen mixed vegetables and a couple of rotisserie chickens. Eat the breasts with steamed frozen veggies. Pick the meat off the bones. Throw the carcasses and skin in large soup pot for a couple hours then strain it to get thick, rich chicken broth. If you don't want too much fat, skim it off the top. Add reserved meat and vegetables of choice. I usually do celery, carrots, cabbage, canned tomatoes, onion, and turnip.
I have a vacation on April 2nd gonna lose as much as I can until then. sw 260 cw 230 gw 180. 74 days. Wonder if I can do it
>>75733799time to break out the konjac jelly and sugar free jello
>>75733799You'd need to lose 5 lbs each week, so you'd need to have an average daily calorie deficit of 2500.This is hard on its own. Doing this in a way that isn't super unhealthy is probably even harder.
>>75733816What if I locked in though
>>75733856ur good then bro
>>75730723>Been just doing a printout OMAd without bothering count the actual calories.>Read the nutrition info for all the stuff I've been eating since yesterday>Tfw it's less than 600 calories a dayNo wonder I've been so hungry. About midway between meals. I've considered doing a cheat today (I'm allowed 2 a week as per the routine but haven't taken one yet this week) but I'm worried it'll essentially offset any gains (or losses in this case)
I have made a realization /fit/
>>75733949Ironically crab has zero carbs
It feels very weird going through my phone gallery seeing all the old stuff of me when I was super-obeseInsane that I just lived like that for years, the shell of apathy that builds is crazy
>>75733958Ironicallyier, almost everything that is presented to us as "crab" is full of carbs.
>>75733799No, you're not going to burn more than your sedentary TDEE every day for two and a half months
>>75733949DAMN
>>75733407>And 27gr (excluding fiber 26gr) will likely kick you out of ketosisso they get out ketosis for all of the one hour it takes their body to normally burn the 100 calories of carbohydrates they just ate?
You have done your daily cardio, right anons?
>>75733799I supposed it would be possible but it would be very very hard. You would have to burn a lot of calories each day in addition to your normal basal metabolic rate. We're talking like 15 to 18 miles of walking a day worth. This takes a lot of time and I think would be very hard to do consistently for 2 and a half months. I say this as someone who has been averaging about 12 miles a day for the past 3 weeks or so.
>>75734009I've done about half. I did a 7 mile walk around noon, and I will go out later tonight to pick up another 6 or so.
>>75734009yep my legs feel adequately jello and now I'm ready to sleep
>body tells me its hungry>i tell it no>it stops being hungry
Why does being hungry make me feel so thirsty?
Be honest anons, how many times has this been you?
>>75734065Maybe you're not hungry and just thirsty.
>>75730770I can't be bothered to count calories, I just make sure I'm hungry before I go to bed and hope it means I'm losing weight
>>75734057>Applied StoicismMarcus Aurelius would be proud anon.
>>75732348then wear one. why risk hurting yourself?

I know you shouldn't do cheat days but if you DID anyway is it better to do it with fats like pork rinds or a single bag (those 50c gas station bags) of chips? I've been under 1000 calories all week.

>>75734066i threw away wrapped/sealed candy, telling myself i was done eating slop. then fished it out of the can to eat it. since then, whenever i throw away shit like that i make sure to open the package and dump.
>>75734358let me help you answer like a human: "never"
>>75734361LMAO you are such a a faggot. I'm sure you got laid a million times, people that do usually brag on 4chan about it.
>>75734384nta but take the L guy, you came here to troll and talked shit and he refuted
I see these threads every day on /fit/, is this just a big circlejerk like the /plg/ threads or does actual discourse happen
>>75734412oh we have everything from diet wars, to success stories, to faillures, we got like failed normies coming in here trying to dunk on fat people for whatever reasonwe got everything
>>75734412Depends. Overall its mostly helpful and productive but there's periods where there's a couple shitposters who ruin threads for a while.
>>75734066I did this one time in like 2nd grade and people talked about it for 10 years, so its a pretty foundational memory for me to not eat shit out of the trash even if its perfectly good.I'd probably still do it if I was actually desperate, like homeless.
>>75734412It was very helpful in spring and summerSince then a few weird ass retards hang around 24/7 to crab, doubt, and shitpostPeople are still getting shit done you just have to skim past all that

>>75731747I've hit that milestone recently and it's nuts. People went from "hey, weight loss going good huh? Keep it up" to "Holy shit Anon, keep going and you might dissapear, haha!" kind of comments as if seemingly overnight.I just got on the scale like I always do every monday morning, noted I lost weight, put it in my app and moved on with my life as it's now just routine, and suddenly everyone acts like I just lost half my bodyweight in a week..Crazy stuff. But also motivating as fuck, the weight loss is going slower but people notice it more. Strange how that works.Also; FUCK YOU GOOKMOOT, stop making posting on 4chan a bigger pain in the ass every year you slant eyed chink bastard

>>75734589It isn't
>>75734596Piece of fucking junk. I knew it, thanks anon.
>>75734066There was one time in high school where I noticed someone left a cardboard box of pizza on the floor. I opened it, and there was still a almost full pizza left in there. I took it home, microwaved it, and ate it all.
>>75734251Just eat meat for those cheat days.
>>75734589it's notadditionally, subtract 100 per hour (your basic expenditure) from any number a machine spits at you.
>>75734589Spinning is HIIT I think? Fitbit probably assumed you were going all out for an hour straight.
I'm so hungry
>>75734616Yeah I just upped my chicken portion a little instead. I know pork rinds still qualify for keto but I'm on a diet that's like all protein and fiber so rinds don't qualify for that routine even if they fit within my deficit.
>>75734640I was just riding my indoor bike, I can't use the cycling mode as that's tied to the GPS.
>>75734644Do a workout and have a snack. I walked 2 hours today and ate my favourite chocolate as a reward. Still under TDEE
>>75734666ok satan
We can't go back bros
>>75734589i dont think you know what "spinning" is, do you? that shit is actually high intensity and exhausting aftake your tdee at sedentary, substract 500-750 calories off that tdee since youre pretty fucking fat and see how your weight moves from that point, ignore all exercises calories, adjust from weekly weight loss its the same shit, every single time
>>75734644I legitimately have found that if I am hungry, if I go for a walk I am no longer hungry. If you try this it could be doubly effective as it eliminates your hunger plus helps you burn a few hundred more calories.
>>75734783There isn't another option in the exercise category for a stationary bike. I wasn't spinning and that why I asked.Also, of course I'm pretty fucking fat. Look which thread you're in, dumbass.
>>75730791My gym is about that far away, I always make a coffee and sip on it on the drive there. Makes the drive more enjoyable and I when I arrive I am amped and ready to go.
>>75730896Sometimes I wish I had friends to go on roadtrips with.
>>75732453Are you doing OMAD?
>>75733218I only eat baked beans, are they still ok? I dont know much about how to use other beans, I suppose it would easy enough to put black beans in my ground beef, but thats about it
>>75733676>small frozen pre-packaged mealsI have those in the freezer too, for emergency. I was like you, I had a system that was working, I was losing weight, then started getting into more healthy eating and enjoying cooking for myself, but the weight loss definitely started to slow/stall after that. My tip is if something is working, stick with it until it doesnt.
