>>76595723just piss it out
>>76595723Imagine being a CICOtard who repeatedly diligently weighs himself because he can never be truly sure his body is burning fat, and predictably sees the number go up and starts panicking. Just stop eating carbs and you won't get these weight fluctuations.
>>76595713Get injuried and get soft. Follow SS and dirty bulk unintentionally bc tragedies wrecked my self esteem (lost job, homeless, killed a man in self defense, landed on a friends couch)Just ate and powerlifted and drank6ft 1 270. Hit 315 on bench for a double and deadlift 505, but now have a big swollen gut which is fixable, but massive pregnancy stretch marks that will never go away. I am at 255 now and it's disgusting. I am about 18% body fat at 200. It's orge. I will never be aesthetic bc I became a mediocre powershitter. Even if I loose the weight I will be fucked. I'm only 26 and past my prime.I would give anything to be a 190lb cardio and BJJ fat again like I was at 19
>>76595797>repeatedly diligently>truly sure>predictably seesthis is how autistics talk
>>76595834Imagine having so much brain rot from years of frequent blood sugar spikes that a few adverbs causes you visceral upset. That is why we call you carbtards.Also, sentences start with capital letters and end with punctuation.
>>76595833>I'm only 26you have time. start doing cardio to sort out your fat distribution
>>76595848I am, doing rolling fast and walking all day as part of my job.still, my scars are a mark from God of my gluttony and they destroy how I look. It is gross
>>76595848I would give up benching 3 plates for reps, deadlifting 5, and squating 4 if I got a healthy lean body and skin back.There are 3 about 6-7 inches long and half an inch thick on my gut going vertically. I don't even have that big of a gut and carry 192lbs of lean body mass according to my dexa scan. I fucked up. All those hours in the gym and eating crap just to destroy my body
>>76595723That's pretty extreme. You should get your heart checked out since it really sounds like you should be on meds.
>>76595713Itt: future rehab room viewers
>>76595869Will you please stop coping? You don't have 192lbs of LBM you'd be above ffmi 25. You have a massive gut. You will make all these claims but you won't post body because you know what I'm saying is true. > I don't even have that big of a gutLel>but now have a big swollen gutKek>carry 192lbs of lean body massLel>I am about 18% body fat at 200Math? Never heard of her
>>76595888I'm already a rehab room viewer. Weight management for me is about health, not looks.

>>76595905you are right. I am fat as fuck I gotta own it. I am not even that strong for my weight1rm on bench is 325deadlift is 505squat is 350 bc I have a fucked up knee. I have more like 170ish lbm
>>76595905I am not comfortable posting myself without clothes bc I am disgusting but here is where I am at now3 plate bench (did not record the 325)https://youtube.com/shorts/3ObtaeWV6Sk?si=LoTt2YnWkmvEJBZX225 for repshttps://youtube.com/shorts/b00YsVL1cVQ?si=CtjDUYDL-8PdI9ru5 plate deadlifthttps://www.youtube.com/shorts/ZbjFVEqq1eUso yeah. I am fat and my strength is not good relative to how fat I am
>>76596036good benches manhope I can get there sooner rather than later, though I doubt with my size ill ever be able to do 3 plates
>>76596045the whole point is the unintentional bulk at 20% body fat was retarded. I would go back to being 190 any day of the week.It sucks, but I am on day 4 of a fast. I am just done eating until I am either fat or need to go to the hospital. Doing snake juice, coffee, cigs, and tons of water.
>>76596051*either not fat
>>76596051Just take it slow and steady man.. if you cant handle eating how youre going to eat for the rest of your life at your new weight now then you wont ever be able to do it500 kcal a day deficit
>>76595960For me? It's Savvy guy.
>>76596051>need to go to the hospitali am assuming that you are american, seeing your use of funny units. aren't you afraid of being stuck with a bill that you can't pay?
>>76596056I hate being fat so much I am willing to sacrifice my lean muscle to do it. I have a dermatology appointment on tuesday for treatment. I know the stretchmarks are scars and will never go away, but I hope being relatively young and getting treatment will help them fade as much as possible>>76596065I am a vet so I get free healthcare. I was poor before I joined the army so I got free healthcare through the state.
>>76596051>>76596076keep going, my only advice is to have an extremely high protein refeed day every 3-5 days and still do some cardioyou can mitigate most of the muscle loss that waygood luck anon
>>76595713I'm looking to lose my muffin top without weight training and just cardio, mix of high intensity runs, with slower paces runs and biking for fun. Is this feasible?
Today's OMAD:1 can sardines (166 kcal)3 eggs (210 kcal)1 tsp olive oil (40 kcal)60g reduced fat cheese (165 kcal)5 cans monster zero (like 40-50 at best)4 cups black coffee (negligible)>>76596051Based, ignore the CICOtards in your replies>>76596056t. loses 4lbs a month
>>76596101To be clear, the caffeinated drinks are spread throughout the day, obviously not consuming all of them at once
>>76596101yeah. I actually lied I do have 2/3 white monsters a day and I realized they have 10kcal.So it's not a pure fast, but the cigs and white monster keep me going. this is my second long fast. first was for 1 week, this one will be for 2.I'm not interested in spending 4 years of my life losing 1 pound a week.
feeling like absolute dogshit but at least im not hungrygoing to get some coffee, hopefully the hunger doesn't come back so I can finish the 36 hours
>>76595797Based and correct.CICO is some sort of mental illness. They have to weigh all their food, log everything in a diary, and then still weigh themselves constantly because they know it doesn't really work. Why bother? Because they can't quit sugar?I never weigh myself. I just eat unlimited calories of low-carb food. I know for sure I can't be fat doing that.
>>765960952 hours a day, sure
Fatty ContestLivingGod68.7kg
>>76596153It does work. I can eat whatever I want and I will consistently lose a 1lb a week if I calculate 500kcal a day deficitI dont even log my stuff. I just eyeball it. sandwich? 500kcal. Burger? Lets call it 800kcal. Its easy to eyeball if youre not in denial. I tend to overestimate to make sure I dont overdo it. I lost 1lb a week almost exactly for 12 month in a row. Didnt matter if it was sweets or boiled chicken. end result was the same
>>76596203Cico doesn't work. It causes inevitable weight regain.
The cico poster? A survivor main who can't loop for his life. Not worth listening to.
>>76596215Nothing works for those people, theyre horribly addicted to food to such an extent they cannot stop themselves and get to 600+lbs.I did CICO and lost 50lbs in a year and its been over a year with zero reweight gain. In fact I keep getting fitter.
>>76596264Post body.
so hungry...
>>76596272I'm 6 days into a fast and I'm not particularly hungry.If you just don't eat carbs your body can burn fat for energy and you won't be hungry.
>cutting sucks ass so try to do body recomp instead>weight loss slows down>negligible muscle gainWhat do anons
>>76596294if I was doing it all over again I would take a low dose of ozempic and eat high protein / low carb / low fatyou can always eat more and bulk later, but there is nothing worse than being fat or skinnyfat
>>76596304But would you focus on pure weight loss or body recomposition ?
>>76596294Quit carbs. You can eat unlimited protein and fat. You will build muscle while continuing to lose fat.Keto causes:- increased metabolism- mote muscle mass an less body fat at any weight- less hunger
>>76596307"body recomp" takes over a year or at the bare minimum 6+ months if you've never lifted and follow a strict programyou can lose as much weight as you want, as long as you're getting enough protein in your first year and lifting hard you'll still be gaining loads of muscle
>>76596313So I guess I can just focus on cutting and as long as I eat shit ton of protien I can still gain muscle is what youre saying anon..::
>>76596324that is exactly what I am saying

>h wow this anti carb guy maybe he has a pointFML my brain is broken from juice fasting all day. I thought drinking juice and having sugar was supposed to give me energy? I thought I was going to faint by 3 PM.Now my daughter made Poutine sigh.
>>76596382Weird, well maybe you're better off doing something else thenWhen I did the sugar fast I had energy from day 2 and felt absolutely amazing
>>76596361how is the tren and test and mk going to help rate of fat loss though ? i can understand clen and monjoro though..............
>>76596382>do a retarded hippie meme fast>have low energy
>>76596412it was a joke, you shouldnt take any of those (besides maybe mounjaro)but they all work basically the same way>greatly increase muscle mass>increasing muscle mass takes protein + calories, meaning your body has less calories for other shit meaning you burn more fat>muscle by itself burns way more calories than fat, so just having more muscle increases your BMRdon't do it, the downsides make it not worth it, unless you've already been lifting for years you shouldn't consider gear
>walk 22k steps yesterday>eat nothing but the lowest calorie burger I could muster>lose 900gWAGMI
>>76596428nice
>>76596332>>76596361Orlistat will prevent some calories from being absorbedGLP-1 (ozempic/wegovy, mounjaro)Caffeine. If you understand the risks, stronger stimulants like ritalin/adderall/cocaine/etc, but really just use caffeineThat's it, anything else is going into roidtranny territory
>>76595713Anyone else find that it's genuinely easier to just starve yourself than it is to eat a balanced diet?
>>76596462"Starve yourself" is normie terminology, fasting =/= starving, but yes, its much easier. All the science on hunger hormones explained this years ago.
>>76596462Yeah, if starving yourself didn't work that one guy that fasted for a whole year wouldn't have lived.
>>76596462Yeah it’s always easy until you fall back to binging
>>76596462>>765964762ndedIt's way easier to stay fasted. As soon as I eat, it basically starts the "I'm hungry" clock. If I eat in the morning, light or heavy, I'm starving at noon. If I don't eat at all, its 2pm before I even notice a tiny bit of hunger....and even then, usually not until closer to dinner. I'm also weirdly full of energy the whole time I'm fasted>>76596332>>76596442To add, EC(A) stack (I prefer only EC).Ephedrine + caffeine is the real deal. I track calories/weight, and there is a very clear breakpoint in how fast I lose weight when I start an EC stack (2x day for me, I don't like to do caffeine a 3rd time later in the day). I'll do it for like 1-2 weeks at a time since it makes me feel like I'm on crack, but the weight loss is crazy fast. I have steady weight loss slope (on average), then EC stack start will show a sharper decline in slope, then it steadies out to the original slope when I stop.
should i limit my time at the stationary bike? today i used for a little more than 2 hrs/50 kms(i use whenever watching something)i am not in any sort of pain
>>76596435Considering my goal yesterday was to lose at least 13kg by December 27, I'm off to a flying start.
im so fucking hungry
>>76596462fasting is pretty easy, yeah
Mounjaro is fucking great. You guys gotta try this.
>>76596518should be fine if it's low intensitytake a day off if your joints hurt or anything
Did the math and to reach my target of 107kg by Dec 27 I need to average 12k steps a day and not cheat on my diet once.Wish me luck, frens.
>>76596538And will continue to be until you stop eating carbs
>>76595713How do I stop associating unrestricted eating with happiness?
>>76596649Nothing tastes better than being skinny feels.
>>76596651Can confirm this is bs, when I got abs and was still a miserable incel, started eating cake and chilling again and felt better
>>76596649Ozempic.
>>76596670This, you will be finally a normal human
>managed to finish another 24 hour fast after 3 weeks of tryingfeels great, glad to know I can still do it. I kept trying and failing 4 times, every single time the hunger would start and would never go away after 8 hours. I'm going to go another 12 hours.
How do you know when your in ketosis? I want to try it out of curiosity
>>76596744There's degrees of ketosis, it's not like an on / off switch.It takes about a day to get into a deep enough ketogenic state where your body is burning primarily fat instead of carbs for energy, if you've never done it you will probably feel like absolute shit for the first 1-3 days until your body adapts. Working out and doing some cardio will help make you feel better.As for symptoms, if you've never done it before you'll most likely get a rash around day 2 or 3 (in most cases it's not severe and goes away on it's own), and by the end of day 1 you will notice your breath is much shallower. Burning fat for energy instead of carbs produces less carbon dioxide, which in turn makes your breathing lighter.
>>76596462I find that fasting for a single day will strangely suppress hunger signals for weeks or even months. But if I keep fasting my hunger will come back at full force and I'll end up binging.

If I don’t have visible abs by the end of this year then I need you guys to kill me
>>76596781I've been doing OMAD fasting for almost 5 months but and after the first month, it was relatively easy. As in about 40% as hard as the first month. I've been relaxing it to 6 hours of eating about the same food but spread out for the last month and got more hungry. I did the tried and true 1 hour method and the hunger pangs went away after 1 fucking day.
>>76597177Are you working out? You won't get abs just by losing weight.
>>76597188yea you will, abs are 90% bodfyatunder 20 youll get some definition, under 15 theyll really start popping out
>>76596738I couldn't do itI gave up after 29 hoursI tried going to sleep and taking a nap to help with the hunger but I woke up two hours later starving and feeling like absolute shit and I ended up eating leftovers in the fridge. It's gotten much harder to fast after I've lost all this weight, whereas before I could drink coffee or work out to avoid the hunger, now it comes and never goes away. I guess going over a day again is still progress
>>76597197No, you won't. There's a reason why those skinny emo guys who never work out and are very thin but don't have a six-pack. Working out a muscle makes it bigger and more prominent.
i'm going to fast starting today
>>76597122Hey Takatin Hey!
>>76596505Thats a mental illness problem, not a how you lost weight problem. Go to a therapist and psychiatrist for your brain rot already.
>>76596462No.I was eating 3 meals a day on 1200kcal, 1500kcal, and now 1800kcal, and I will continue to do so. Only feel hunger for like an hour before dinner if I eat breakfast early.

>>76596943Never seen any reason to believe that high dose caffeine has any negative health effects. I just slept 8 hours fine.
>>76597507either you make room for it in your macros or you decline. there is no alternative.
>>76597507Learn to say no. People will respect you more. The absolute worst thing you can do for your relationships with anyone around you is to constantly agree with them and please them. Humans are wild animals, show them you're smarter than the herd they're in.

>>76597572You are, anon. Welcome to life, which truly begins at around 15% bodyfat :)
>>76597581it's crazy, I've whinged in this general before that the scale's been going down for months and I couldn't feel a difference anywhere. Suddenly BOOM it's like all the changes are happening at once
>>76597588Yep it's like one day you realize your new baseline and to top it all off, it just keeps getting better from there.
>>76597524Well, I guess that settles it. Since you have never seen any reason, then I guess that it's perfectly benign.
>>76597524>I ate 10 twinkies a day and didn't get fat, therefore this practice isn't negatively affecting my body.
>>76597566I'm around 160lbs, do you think everyone here is obese?>>76597619...Yes, that's how it works. If science has settled on a drug being benign (and even beneficial), the burden of proof is on you to show otherwise
>>76597623Oh, okay. You're just going to be obtuse and lie. Science has not shown that extremely high doses of caffeine are benign. Science has shown that less than half of that at the maximum per day is what's recommended for heart health. But you knew that. I won't try to engage further.
>>76597622Twinkies don't increase metabolism, lower appetite, have 0 calories, and psychologically ease the burden/boredom of not eating
>>76597631>Cigarettes are healthy because they make me feel good.Keep digging your hole
>>76597507>willpower isn’t infinitewrong
>>76597629That's a conservative estimate made to accommodate people predisposed to heart issues, there's never been any study suggesting cardiovascular risks for healthy adults.
>>76597639Try saying that when your wife makes your favorite treat (chocolate chip cookies for me) and leaves them in the freezer and eats them at a rate of one per week. You know they're in there, you know how nice it'd be to devour them all, you used to devour them all and it made her happy and you happy. What harm is there in just eating one every once in awhile? Maybe if I budget for them it wouldn't be so bad just to have one. Next thing you know you've eaten them all.
>>76597635Cigarettes are bad because:>Chronic nicotine use causes the brain to adapt to the presence of the drug by changing the number and sensitivity of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. These changes can persist for months or years after quitting.>Reward System Alteration: Nicotine hijacks the brain’s reward pathways by increasing dopamine release, especially in the mesolimbic system. This rewiring can make the brain more sensitive to triggers, stress, or cues related to smoking—even long after stopping.Neither of those apply to caffeine, any brain changes are (very shortly) reversible upon cessation, it's the mildest drug which exists.

>>76598027This is the fat loss thread. No one cares about your water weight.
>>76598022>The only time thin people weigh themselves is when they go to a doctor's appointment. Just sayin.not true anorexic weigh themselves at least once a day
>>76598022>Non-diabetics don't take insulin, therefore type 1 diabetics shouldn't either.
>>76598022Yeah and you’re not thin
fuck measuring things and charting progress!fuck caffeine's appetite suppressing properties too!i don't want to lose weight and i don't want anyone else to either.
>>76598064Calipers and tape measurers are actually good. We should standardize those instead of a scale.

>>76595713>measure scale weight daily so I can run regression models vs. my calorie logs and liftsPretty fun personal activity. I mentioned in another thread, but I also ran an EC stack for 2 weeks on/off, and you can do breakpoint analysis and see exactly how much more calories you burn on the stack vs off. Super noticeable.
I weight myself weekly, it's been working out so far. Kinda dreading next time because I've had a shit fucking week. I think I ate more than I planned, not that much but still.
>>76598255It happens man. Dont get too down about it. Just get back on the horse
You should only judge your weight and appearance based on one thing, how much pussy you slay. Me? that number is 0 so i am fat and ugly no matter what number on scale says.
>>76598343This is a circular defeatist mindset.
>>76598343Based. Don't ever get up.
I would trade my normal gym membership and sign up at a boxing gym right now if I could, but I have to fix my tendon enthesophyte in my elbow first. No way I can through punches safely with this fucked up elbow but the path to fixing it feels impossible.Have to lay off the computer typing and mouse holding but its part of my job. Need like a solid month or more of not aggressively typing/clicking and physical therapy but totally unrealistic to take a month off work
Didn't lose any weight this week but I was also puking and shitting my guts out last week so I'm guessing it was all water weight lost, and this week it's actual fat loss
>>76598500>but I have to fix my tendon enthesophyte in my elbow firsthow did you injure it ?
I don't think that fasting for less than 3-4 days is that good.I have a coworker who keeps telling me about his 12-24 hour fasts and I don't have the heart to tell him that he is retarded. At that point your body hasn't even used up all your left over glycogen and you sure as shit are not in ketosis.
>>76598270Yeah. I do know already next week is going to be crap too. I'll be content as long as I keep to my exercising goals I guess, even fi I fuck up the dieting parts a bit. That'll be something at least, and still be good and useful later.
Gonna try my first ever 2 day fast. Maybe 3 days if i feel like i can do it. What do i do so i don't die? Or feel like aids.
>>76598577dont think it was just one incident, just chronic from too much overusewas told the only way to decrease the pain is to go easy on it and do a bunch of hand stretches
>>76598643There is no danger of dying under 7 days of fasting. (it's assumed that you are not a dysgenic mongoloid).Try to do a dry fast instead of a water one.The thing that has worked best for me when it comes to not feeling like shit is keeping my mind off it. So I read for a couple of hours and then go for a very long walk and just think and keep my mind off the fast. Doing house chores also helps.
>>76598664>Try to do a dry fast instead of a water one.No. fuck you faggot
>>76598671Okay retard.
>>76598684>Bro just don't drink waterThe only retard here is you
>>76598689What do you mean?Do you think that it's not possible to dry fast? Or that it's not efficient? Or that it has more drawbacks? Which one exactly?
>>76598702I think it is retarded because it is retarded
>>76598658>chronic from too much overusewhat could you possibly do that caused it to be overused?
>>76598709In what way is it retarded?
>>76598715>Not drinking waterI don't need to say anything else
>>76598727You know that you can dry fast for more than a week right?Some even do it for close to two weeks and it shows good results.
I can't stop chugging raw honey and a part of my brain is trying to convince me this will help with weight lossI've probably eaten 300 calories worth of honey today
>>76598738Yeah good for you bro, enjoy dying you stupid faggot.
>>76598744How would I die exactly?
>>76598741ur probably nutrient deficient in something.
>>76598749From dehydration? I can see dry fasting has already melted your brain.
>>76598741try magnesium glycinate, or malate
>>76598741nigga.. how about you buy a few large carrots and roast them in a honey glaze. just one tablespoon of honey.
>>76598764how about you kiss tubby anon for eatting so much honey? that is a good idea though but I think the honey would burn
>>76598753There's exactly one guy on 4ch, sometimes here, sometimes on /b/, trying to hospitalized people by encouraging 'dry' fasting, i.e., dying. The human body shuts down without fluid intake after roughly 3-5 days, and this fag knows it. That's why he always encourages a week long death fast. He probably thinks he's doing the devil's work or something edgy like that, but he always plays it straight in threads like, "oh, you can't go without fluids for weeks? Sounds like you need to man up" and does not break character. He is just doing the same shtick as the mix chlorine and ammonia for crystals meme - he wants to hurt people.
>>76598764>vegetablesmiss me with that shit
>>76598773>miss me with that shitur so cute tubby anon. can I rub your belly?
>>76598772lmao didn't get engagement and now has to schizo post to keep up the epic troll
>>76598772you are right anon, I'm another bystander here but dry fasting is a lot more dangerous than regular water fasting. Although i have done it before, only for 1/2 days.I don't do fasting anymore
>>76598782What the fuck are you talking about
>>76598789Water fasting is fine. 48 hour water fasts are easy. 5 day or more fasts and you need to consider electrolytes, so have some potassium, salt, and magnesium available. Don't overdo the potassium or you'll have explosive water shots. After 5 days it gets pretty hard to find energy for much but it's also the best time for fat loss.Never, ever, attempt a waterless fast.
The McGill Big Three gave me DOMS
>>76598711You can fuck up your elbow from tons of things, too much computer use in non-ergomonic positions, jacking off too much, sports, exercise, basically anything where you do the same repetitive actions using your arm or hands. So its common in people who play baseball or golf but you can get it from non-sports related overuseI've fixed my computer desk ergonomics months ago and its alleviated the symptoms but thats about it
>>76598858>I've fixed my computer desk ergonomicsany resources for this? I've always worried about repetitive stress, never had it but people close to me(autistic gamers) had it
>>76595713>pants that were too small for me to fit into are now saggingFeeling good lads
>>76598868Honestly you should only really optimize for ergonomics if its something you use everyday and then once you start feeling discomfort coming from your hands or your elbow. It can get kind of expensive depending on what you already use.The stuff I learned came from an occupational therapist I was referred to so idk how good the information is online for ergonomics.Basically I just:>got an office chair with adjustable arm rests and tons of padding (for me, it was a Steelcase Amia>adjust height of chair and arm rest so your arms are either 90 degrees with the desk or slightly above>always rest of your forearms, if you to need rotate your elbows out so the inside of your elbow is slightly resting on the armrest>use a vertical mouse>make sure you're sitting on your ass/upper hammies and not on tailbone or lower back>stretch hands and arms multiple times a dayI ended up having to buy a new desk because the one I used was too high, even for the max height of my chair. All in all expensive but worth it in the end I think
>stop counting calories because i exercise every day now>eat whatever i want>still losing weightuh.. you niggers lied

>>76598979thank u anon u doing gods work the constant stretching needed makes me think you have something else going on
I hate when I get really excited about getting in shape, do a good workout, stick to my diet, do some cardio and then...realize I still have the rest of the day to fill :(
I'm addicted to bags of frozen tortellini. For years I would eat an entire bag at once mixed with a tomato sauce and a pound meat usually sausage. I still love it and consider it close to the perfect satiating meal but it's well over what I should be eating in a day. Even though I've been telling myself I'm going to do it I never did but today I actually only boiled half of it and put the other half in a container to save for tomorrow. I still feel too full and it should probably be 1/3rd at most but it's a step in the right direction at least. God I wish carbs weren't so delicious, why do they have to make everything taste better just by existing?
>>76599421Yeah bro its the carbs, not the fat at all
>>76599441It is the carbs, I could give up the sausage but the pasta and the chips and the bread. They haunt my every waking moment.
>>76599455Sounds like highly refined grain is your problem not just carbsYes its very addictive due to its powdered form flaring up your bloodsugar very fast, thats why people recommend using whole grain options instead

Had to bend a bit to do it, but I actually managed to see the tip of my flaccid penis today.WAGMI
>>76599518do u just go back to eating how u want after losing a certain amount?
wagmi
>>76599368Intermittent fasting helps me with that. After a certain time you don't get to eat anything so it's easier to adhere to that strict rule. After a week or two your hunger hormones change so you get hungry during you eating hours and not that hungry when it's not time to eat. Maybe try a new hobby to fill your time.
>>76599518Too big of a deficit for a long time messes up your hormones and metabolism so it's easy to regain it all back. You need a plan to maintain your weight when you reach your goal weight. What diet has helped you maintain the easiest? One that you can actually stick with is the best for you. Adding a bit of cardio as a bit of a buffer helped me. Have strict max weight where you have to start dieting again if you regain and go above it. I felt the least hungry while fasting, try that out. You can throw in a couple fasting days when ever you gain a couple of pounds.
rate my meal for today>5 piece fried chicken - 1 breast, 2 thighs, 2 drumsticks>small fries>one biscuit (as a treat)~1600 calories, 140g of protein
>>76600027also forgot, no soda (I have diet soda at home)
So, I haven't even touched a mayo for the 6 months I've been dieting because I just heard so many people saying that it was literally 9 zillion calories or something, when you google it says it says 680kcal/100g, so I never even bothered to look on the label on the supermarket. But today I just went to grab some tomato sauce, saw a mayo nearby and decided to check, it's 133kcal/100g. I check another mayo, similar value. I check a 3rd one, same shit. WTF? And it's not like a shitty diet mayo or anything, it's literally the same mayo I used to eat, and all other mayos seemed around the same. The whole package has like 198g btw. If you eat the whole thing it's like 260kcal?A chicken breast is like 130kcal/100g. It's almost the same. Obviously mayo is probably all carbs and fat, I'm not saying it's good macros or healthy or as filling or anything, but IDGAF about that, the only reason I was avoiding it is because I thought it was 9 zillion calories and it'd make me fat, but I could literally fit a whole package of that shit everyday and my CICO would still have been okay.I feel lied to by the media, you guys and Google. Fucking hell. I'm having a potato salad with a gigaton of mayo tomorrow for my OMAD. I guess the lesson for me here is to always look at the food label instead of trusting you fucks.
>go on vacation for two weeks>stop caring about calories>eat tons>suddenly find women’s bodies interesting again>run out of cialis, don’t need it anywayPhew, glad the low libido and ED was just a side effect of my cut. Only problem is now I have to worry about women again.
>>76600027USA? Where did you get your data from? Doubt it's that much protein. Probably more like 100g of protein and 1700 cals.
>>76600038At least get the lite/low fat mayo.
>>76600120>Where did you get your data from?they have it on the websiteits just chicken>breast - 38g protein 380cal>legs - 18g protein 160cal>thigh - 25g protein 280 cal125g of protein + the biscuit and fries
>>76600038Whatever third world mayo you’re using it’s either not real or they’re lying in the nutritional info (there’s almost no control for it)But 600 sounds like way too much for a 100gIt’s probably more like 300

>>76598772Is this a copypasta or something? As long as you're not doing a marathon out in the sun or w/e your own metabolic water will sustain you and it'll take about 2-3 weeks before there's danger. Dry fasting should always be done indoors with AC and you should be mindful of accidentally losing water like by eating protein because the hydrolysis required to separate amino acids consumes water.
>>76600170Post body
>>76600173>2-3 weeks is fineYou are so far gone it isn't even funny. Please dry fast for 3 weeks and kill yourself so we don't have to see your posts anymore. Faggot.
>>76600166Remember to do it in the morning after a couple days of regular eating because dieting reduces test.
>>76600178I could, i've done 2 weeks before but I had about 40 more pounds on me. The fat really helps sustain you during dry fasting since it's a source of water for your body.
>>76600182I didn't ask for a retarded reply. Dry fast for 3 weeks and die already.

>been running 20 miles a week>haven't lost an ounceexercise is irrelevant for weight loss, it's all about calories
24 hours into my fast last night, I cooked a bunch of food for work this week and stuck it in my freezer without breaking my fast. Last week I did the same thing and the smell of cooking meat was tortuous, but this time I wasn't even really tempted.
>>76600150sounds like someone isn't getting enough protein and fat
Last meal for the day. Some crumbed chicken, potato and beans. My head feels like its trying to detox already, and its day 1. How long until I no longer crave the sweet treats?
>>76600027I think I might have eaten a small chicken bone or something because my stomach is a little upset and I feel something around my neck that won't go away with water

Contest isn't updating properly. Someone needs to make a new thread.
>>76600190the real question is why do reply back yet again?
>>76600244what do you mean last meal?does that mean you ate multiple times?as a fatty you literally dont eat or MAX ONE MEAL a daydrink vitamin c to stop the detox symptoms like headache
>>76600299>no anon dont eat calories>but do drink calories wut
>>76600297We're just two fatties, forever locked in a shitposting spiral, never to meet, never to win. Until the ending of the thread that binds us all.Also dry fasting loses weight about twice as fast as water fasting btw. Your body kicks into high gear to make metabolic water which is why fat reserves are important. I like talking about it, to answer your question.
>>76598825There was a guy on here I think a week and a half ago but don't quote me on that who was saying he did like six weeks dry fasting. It was so transparent to anyone with even a rudimentary knowledge of a nutrition that he was lying. But then again people here believe that spinach is toxic and you should just take random mushroom extracts from China to boost test, So you can guess that people were engaging with him and actually believed it.
>>76599518I would look into thyroid issues or vitamin deficiencies. Getting those checked in a blood panel is fairly cheap and is a good investment overall. I don't think you have a psychological issue here, But of course, like anyone, I could be wrong. Either way, I wish you the best.
>>76600027>1600 calorie meal
>>76600125I don't want to put a damper on what was probably a delicious meal, but in the United States, the FDA does not require the oil that the food was cooked in to count towards the calories. And you're talking about fried chicken here, so.
>>76600166Keep us posted

>>76600388not in his very first reply he just said to drink vitamin c
>>76600377Thanks anon. And it going up and down on a daily basis (despite consistent diet) is normal as well?
>>76600389>he didn't say this>but also he didJust stop.
>>76600392drink vitamin c to anyone that isnt into diet culture or whatever usually comes across as drink ur vtiamic c not drink vitamin c
>>76600393The discussion is over. You were blatantly wrong. Everybody on this board knows about supplements. I'm not going to continue this discussion.
>>76600391yes, do not worry about daily fluctuations at all, i'm sure this is in the stickyyou have to zoom out and look at general trends.to minimise fluctuations (but maybe not remove them) try weighting yourself in a consistent way, for example in the morning after you wake up, after taking your morning piss, completely naked (so different clothes don't affect the measurement), but even in this case there will be fluctuations
>>76600394okay anon, get off ur high horsedont need to get pissy

Anon couldn't even fathom the possibility of getting your nutrients without ingesting a ton of sugar to go down with them.Anon, I hope this is a moment of learning. You don't have to drink unnecessary calories.Even vitamin C is a meme in and of itself, you can get all you need by eating regular meat and veggies, maybe a squeeze of lime on your salads every once in a while.

>>76599518Don't just change the amount of food that you eat, but also the type and quality: by any chance, do of often eat out? I find it much more difficult to regain weight when cooking mostly at home, minimizing the overall NOVA score of my ingredients. (But then I'm French and I properly devour bread at every opportunity so there is that counterbalancing my efforts.)Also, as others have pointed out, you are simply not eating enough when cutting, and it is not sustainable. Try to eat more, be more active (it not only burns calories, and maintain muscle mass, but also helps regulate appetite), and integrate it into your lifestyle.
