>>76635022praying its just fatfuck titties and not gyno
>>76635024A fear we all have to face.
Man, 1200 calories is brutal. Lethargy, headaches. May have to bump to 1500.
Why is she praying to bananas and not the lord? Yiga infiltrator?
>>76635022I ate a family bag of chips yesterday and i'm not a family
>>76635064God blessed bananas, Jesus wants us all to have good potassium levels.
>>76635070Chips are my weakness too, I've had to start taking a different route in the grocery store so I don't see the chip aisle. You'll do better next time brother.
>supposed to re-up on my Mounjaro today, but was hoping to wait until tomorrow morning instead of this evening because I'd rather do it in the morning with all my other meds>hunger starts to return, with a vengeanceAll I have to do is not stuff my face for another 18 hours.
>>76635022I still feel like snacking even though I have already had 1500 calories of mostly eggs and drank 2 gallons of water throughout the day
>>76635024Do you feel breast buds? If not, it's fatfuck titties. If you do, see a doctor.
>>76635128Chemically, the difference is pretty negligible and the window is 5-10 days between injections really. I think this might be one where your mind is playing tricks on you, and trying to ruin your efforts.
Fatty ContestFastFattyFast95.4kgI think the 1 litre of vodka + beers I drank last weekend might have slowed down my weight loss a bit, probably trying to not drink this weekend.
just like another 2 months straight of cutting (maybe 3) to get down to 12% bodyfat
>>76635142Not a sin, that's normal. Calorie deficit = constant annoying hunger, that's why losing weight is impossible.
>>76635165Don't drunk at all. Being sober is the truth.
>>76635022i ate 1800 calories today yet only managed 37 grams of protein
>>76635128Hold the line.
>>76635148Thanks. If it is just my mind, this should help.Seeing good results with it so far after some initial bloating. Though admittedly it's only been a week.
Lunch11.2oz of Mixed meats sausage and gyro:882 calories2oz of cheese:228 calories6oz of ranch dressing:780 caloriesMixed veggies:300 calories???Total Calories:2190Daily Maintanance:3350 calories, total lost 1160. First good day to report, had to help my parents mow their lawn so I didn't get a chance to prep my sloppa. Got a salad instead from my favorite sub place. They are super cheap and are huge, they don't list any calorie counts so I had to make my best guess. I also got a food scale so I could measure things. Man I couldn't believe the dressing was almost as many calories as the meat. I need to prep a low calorie dressing for the future so I don't get stuck needing to use theirs again that really fucked me. Also got a scale ordered should be here by the weekend. Thanks for listening to my blog, hope you guys had a good day.
>>76635165>might have slowed down my weight loss a bitNevermind, 2kgs lost according to fatty contest. Im still probably going to try to be sober this weekend.>>76635170Eh, Im an alcoholic loser with no life, sometimes I just want to forget what a loser I am and enjoy at least couple of hours of the day.
Kinda wanna go to Wendy's, but the nearest one is a 22 hour drive away.
>>76635210There's nothing at wendys worth driving that far for anymore. I've heard you can replicate the frosty pretty well at home using cool whip or something. Maybe try that, otherwise theres nothing unique there and they charge 3 something for a fucking jr bacon cheeseburger. Fuck them they can go to hell with all the other boring brown box stores.
>>76635218I've never had it before and there's only one in the country for now. Maybe I wait until there's one closer to me by 2034.
>>76635222Ah well if you've never had it yeah might be worth if you can plan some other things. Don't just go for that though, what if you get there and the machine is broken.
>>76635192That's pretty good. Obviously if it's your first week, the dosage you're on is the lowest it'll ever be at, so when it start to wane, it'll be felt a bit more noticeably.The idea with Mounjaro is that the injections don't entirely overlap with the drug's depletion rate. So, the half-life is like 5 days, and you inject every 7th, meaning that each time you inject, you're adding to the dosage already in your system. After 4-5 doses you reach a "Steady state" where the average dose in your system stays around 4.3mg and doesn't increase with successive injections. Once you reach the steady state and you're still seeing results, just stay there until anything changes. If you have a bad week, don't immediately consider upping your dose, give it another one before you do. You'll feel bad, but you won't lose all your progress from a bad week or two. With side effects, they can happen. You'll almost certainly get some of them at some point. It can be anything from random chance to eating a particular type of food, or drink or whatever. Try to identify and avoid it. A lot of people just add more medication to combat the side effects rather than addressing the underlying causes, and you shouldn't really do that, but it is an easy fix.
>>76635251I've found I get the sulphur burps and a bit of constipation. I'm on the 2.5mg at the moment, and I'm hoping I won't need more than the 5 to be at a steady state because that's about all I can afford.There are rumours they may add it and Wegovy to the PBS come November, which would be kinda great because then it'll be a lot cheaper and Australia will become the land of hard bodies.
>>76635263You have to consider advertising with all this stuff. They want you to go up in dose because it makes more money for them.If you stay on 5mg for months, maybe you'll eventually lose some efficacy with the drug and start to lose some appetite suppression. But, you'll still have like 8.5mg of tirzepatide in your system, and the drug will still be effecting your appetite in a way that's meaningful compared to if you went off it entirely. There's no real timeline on the drug losing all efficacy, and what general guideline there is out there indicate that the tirzepatide retains its effects taken at the same dose for over a year. There's a lot of biological quirks to all this, and some people see zero effects of the drug until like 10mg. Some people see effects immediately. But, generally if you're seeing effects at 2.5mg, you'll see effects from 2.5mg for a long period of time. But, you'll see more consistent results if you go up.However, you'll still lose weight either way, it's just a matter of consistency, speed and comfort, I suppose.Worst case, you can quit it for 2 months, start at 2.5mg again. And realistically you're not going to regain like 10kg in 2 months, you might regain some. But, you'll probably be fine. There's no known resistance that the body builds up to the drug, and it completely leaves your system in like 6 weeks.
>>76635298Interdasting, I'll see how I feel after the first four weeks then. If I can stay on the 2.5 for a while that's just more savings for me.
>>76635201>I need to prep a low calorie dressingdressing is why salads aren't even healthy, fuck salads. rather eat plain broccoli than plain salad, although actually arugula tastes good totally plain.the lowest cal dressing will be just vinegar and salt, or something like that.
>>76635201>I need to prep a low calorie dressing for the futureTry low fat greek yogurt with garlic, spices, herbs and msg. It has completely replaced all the dressings I used to get.
Are net carbs a meme or is worth buying into that somehow this 11g carb bread is actually 1g of carbs after I shit it out ?
>>76635321That sounds good, mind sharing the exact ingredients and amounts? Do you just use yogurt and nothing else? It's pretty thick do you thin it out with water or something?
>>76635328I think low fat greek yogurt is pretty thin, I usually get quark yogurt which is even thicker but has more protein. I usually do like 3-4 garlic cloves for 200-400g of yogurt, a pinch or two of the spices, herbs, salt and msg. Nothing too exact. Just mix, let it sit in the fridge for like 15 minutes so the flavours really get together and enjoy.
>>76635343Thanks I'll give it a shot.
>>76635343sounds like it would be good with some lemon juice
Im fat
>>76635384Hi fat I'm dad.
>>76635022Ive been sneaking chocolate again, my family keeps it in the freezer and I cant resist having a couple squares. I'm so weak.
>>76635394If it's dark chocolate that's not bad. If it's milk yeah maybe get yourself a bar of dark and stick it in there and eat from that instead.

>>76635405Fat shit
>>76635405Nice. I know it's not the end, but it must feel pretty satisfying to be so close to that 100kg mark. Definitely a milestone.
>>76635388Nuh uh :(
>>76635461It's a good kind of weird feeling. I know I should be happy as hell to finally reclaim my teenage weight, but I cant help but keep looking beyond it.
>>76635405Almost there
>>76635538first your teenage weightthen a teenage gf
>>76635538immensely hard post
>>76635324Net carbs are an oversimplification. Unless you're trying to limit carbs to stay in ketosis, you don't have to worry about them but they can have calories.Sugar alcohols do have carbs, depends on the type.Insoluble fiber is essentially 0 calories. Soluble fiber can be broken down by bacteria in your gut and then digested as carbs. Roughly 2 calories per gram but depends on the exact type of fiber.
>>76635558Aw hell no! Bitch ghosted me after I lent her my cellphone and travel bag when she was running away from her home because of "abuse". I was a gullible lad back then.
Just got back from wendys
>>76635648i didnt say your old teenage gf(who's a hag now)i said a teenage gf

>>76635666Now you've been marked my the number of the beast.
>>76635064Catholics pray to saints. It's irrelevant. It's paganism either way.
>>76635201I'm really heartened by everything in this post. You have a scale. You're using it. You're eating a lot of vegetables. There's a ton of variety and you're speaking positively about spending time with your parents and doing favors for them. You've got a great mindset and a good head on your shoulders, man. Godspeed.
>>76635343>I think low fat greek yogurt is pretty thinIt's not. It's very thick.
>>76635690because I ate a son of a baconator and 6 chicken nuggets?
>>76635648Was that not a hint that you might not be the most stable and reliable person?
>>76635708Yep, you're post number ended in 666, you must confess your sins before it's too late.
>>76635538i feel the same way. i've reached a big milestone. i was a fat teenager but i worked hard to slim down in college. i'm much older now but i've returned to my college weight. that was my goal and now i'm looking past it. i've been here already. i want to go further. i want to see how far i can go.in college, i didn't really know what i was doing. it was more luck than anything. what i did back then did work, but i didn't understand why. things are different now. now i know exactly what i'm doing. i know what works and how to do it.
>>76635709Perhaps. It's not like my teenage self had it all figured out to begin with. I think I dodged a massive bullet anyway because after she ran away from her home she got herself a room from my dad's friend, lived for a month and bailed out day before the rent was due. I should've known better to hook up with a romani girl. My homeboys tried to warn meBut that chocolate butt she had made (me, me so horny)>>76635764Rock on brother. Once I get all the fat out of me I plan to pick up either Karate or Kickboxing just to learn how to throw limbs. The idea is to make a corny YT series on youtube where I perform Fei's Deathblows from Xenogears with help of some DYI weightless machine. Derranged far off dream, but it keeps me going so that's a good thing.

About to finish my 48 hours fast. Finally, at 73.5 kgs. 70kgs is closer than ever. I just want to do one 48 hours fast every week and I'll be happy, but it makes my parents upset.
Just finished a proper beginner calisthenics workoutI feel so much better now. Its a throwback to when i was younger and did calisthenics. I feel so good after being in the park and training. I should absolutely continue doing calisthenics 3 times a week
>>76636182Yagmi anon kun.
