I just learned my calorie tracking app is configured wrong so it's been estimating my calorie budget at 600 higher than reality for my 2lb/week goal. I've been going under the goal, but god damn. It's going to be even harder to eat enough fucking protein knowing this.

One thing I've found with Mounjaro is that the second day of a fast is no longer the hardest. The first is. This might indicate I need a higher dosage.
Isn't Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard a little low on protein relatively speaking at 24g/scoop?
>>76827727Yes. Sounds like a meme influencer brand. 3 types of processed whey... Just find one with whey isolate and casein (might be marked as dairy/milk protein). ~85% protein. Usually you can get them a lot cheaper $/protein gram.

Scale went down fellas by 7lbs to be exact in a span of 25 days, I know I could do better from now on. I got 15lbs more to go within 6 bloody weeks before the vacation ends and showcase that I’m fit to peers Eating less food and cutting off goyslop has shrinked my stomach too maybe because of which I overall fell full much faster

>>76828272are you getting enough good clean carbs before cardio? fruit/veg?
>>76828834>>76828834Facebook marketplace buddy boyo. Ppl use their expensive treadmills once and then they turn into clothes hanging stations. Then they sell them for cheap on fb marketplace.
>>76828854I tried it, it's hard finding one close enough, and even then I don't have a car or someone with a car to help me move it from the buyer, no buyer will deliver that shit lol.
>>76828834I can recommend the one I have.https://a.co/d/cqjAHIH Its out of your price range I know, but I really like it for what it is, my two main complaints is I wish I could key in my weight so I can get a more accurate calorie count, but I find a good site (https://www.treadmillcalculator.com/) that gives me an idea, and I wish the incline went higher than 10% as all I do is walk at a 10% incline for 45 minutes. but I have had it for almost a year and it has served me well. My dad has one of those walking pads and it just looks really fragile, I guess you can say. Again I know its out of your price range, but maybe you can afford to do payments? Just think of it a monthly gym membership that eventually allows you free access to the gym forever at some point.
>>76828870Appreciate it but theres no way I can spend the money on that right now.
>>76828874I understand. I know planet fitness gets a lot of shit, but their treadmills are good for $10 a month, probably better than buying those walking pads, assuming you have a PF near by
>>76828834Not the advice you want to hear but you really are better off just putting on sweats and headphones, listen to Rengoku Teien healing album and just run circles around nearest park/lake.
What is your weightlifting routine? I'm getting ready to get started and want to make sure I'm hitting all muscles so i don't lose muscle mass.
>>76828898>1h of jogging everyday to turn every day into legs day> 3 x 30 assisted pull ups> 2 x 30 assisted dipsGotta figure out what to add to cover torso/abs.
Bros regarding cardio vascular health, is there a METS/BPM/Watts metric "standard" goal that I can use? I do 65% (Zone 2, 125bpm) cardio at 90 watts on the bike at around 5.7 mets, should I check if my wattage is increasing with the same BPM over time or something?
I get real fucked up this weekBasically pushed my record low this year from 77.5 kg to 79.7 today. I'm having a vacation next week so I'll be more focused on fasting instead. imgmi
>>76828898Jerk around every day at the gym for a bit and walk for an hour before bed. Trying to walk more cause weight is stalled though.
>>76828890Honestly I thought about it, but I often lack the motivation to do it because every podcast or w.e i end up hearing while walking/jogging bores the fuck out of me, i thought if i could do it while watching a series would be easier, also i live in a (((diverse))) urban area, headphones and being out and about is risky with the usual suspects around.
The first week of my PSMF is over. It's smooth sailing from now on.
>>76828886I have a gym near me thats like 25/month or something, literally 5min walk, I guess I could sign up and go there every day, would also include all the other equipment. Might actually consider it and just bring my phone and watch shows on it while i use the treadmill.
>>76828898I got some adjustable dumbells(like 30 bucks) and a bench that inclines declines (about 50 bucks), I do a full body split 3x week something like>monday push/legs>wed pull/legs>friday push/pull/legsi try to do either 10k steps a day or 30-50mins of some light cardio too. although im very bad at doing this consistently, cardio sucks balls.
>>76827724today, i ate at my TDEE (estimate) after 40 days of ~600-800 deficit because i was invited to a feast. it's over.
>>76828942Afaik they all say for cardio you need about 30mins a day, it has to be intense enough to be able to talk while doing it but not able to sing, if that makes sense.
>>76828313Its actually insane how much giving a shit about your appearance changes your morning routine.I used to stay up until midnight, wake up at 6AM, scroll on my phone for 20 minutes, do a quick 5 minute shower, brush my teeth, throw some clothes on, chug an energy drink, leave at 6:40, get to work at 7. Now, I get into bed at 8:30PM, sleep by 9PM, wake up at 4:30AM, news scroll for 15 minutes, get out of bed, drink my protein shake + pre workout + supplements, get to the gym at 5AM, lift and jog until 6AM, get home at 6:05AM, shower, brush my teeth, floss, put tretinoin, moisturizer, sun screen, azelaic acid on my face, style my hair using pomade, comb and trim loose hairs on my beard, add beard oil, curl my eyelashes, carefully pick my outfit based on matching colors, season, daily acitivies, belt has to match shoes, everything has to be cohesive, final mirror check, out the door at 6:45AM, get to work barely on time.
>>76829008>>76828313I know what you mean anon, but I find a strict routine of discipline after you get over the hump is very satisfying.
>>76829006Yeah I know that but how do I know that I am improving? Just by being able to keep up a medium heart rate at previously-harder speeds/wattage?
>4 months into dieting and working out>good progress>progress starts to stagnate, alot, but no weight gain so thats goodMight try a 2 week maintenance break, gonna do -100 calories of whatever the sailrabbit thingie for sedentary tells me my tdee is to be safe, that should be fine no?
>>76827855not him but apps are extremely shit at estimating TDEE. my app estimated my manlet sedentary ass at 2450kcals but i followed the OP calculator and it was 2050kcals.i chose female and 120cm (3'11") height to get 2000kcals TDEE estimate.now i'm losing weight properly at ~3kg (6 5lbs) per month which fits nicely with 800kcals deficit calculations.
>>76829015I wouldnt worry about cardio progress unless your goal is to build stamina for cardio for whatever reason, if your only goal is to get /fit/ then just keep consistent, also you will know when its time to step it up, when your normal routine feels easier, then intensity by a little bit or just duration.
>>76827855The only way to accurately track calorie allowance is trial and error by eating certain amount and keeping track of your weight changes, i dont do this personally so i always calculate with the lowest activity levels possible and go a tiny bit lower than that.
>>76828241lift weights at TDEE or a slight deficit. 300kcals max deficit. don't do cardio. that's for us fatties.
>>76829020>i chose female and 120cm (3'11") height to get 2000kcals TDEE estimate.>now i'm losing weight properly at ~3kg (6 5lbs) per month which fits nicely with 800kcals deficit calculations.What is your height/weight anon?

I lift 3 times a week with newbie gains so my scale results are skewed by that, still according to my app i've been at 0.66kg loss a week. It's all fucking with me so I try not to obsess too much about it, so long as I see gains on my lifts and i see some weight loss its all g.

>>76829100I get it, but I did a lot of research for this, and my reason for lifting while losing weight is>as a fat ass with access to newbie gains you are at a unique opportunity to gain some muscle while on deficit >as a fat ass you have more than average muscle due to extra weight, i dont wanna lose it and end up a skinny fat blob at the end of my fat loss with a bunch of lose skin.

Is corn a good energy food or something?This morning I was completely drained. Dragged my feet and felt weak as fuck. I could feel myself considering pigging out for a while, so instead I ate a can of corn totaling 107 calories, and I haven't eaten anything else today. Not only do I feel fine, I have been pretty physically active today, which based on how I felt this morning is a surprise to me.
>>76829113I once cried to my mom about being ugly and she said, "It's okay, looks are not that important." Lifts for this feel?

>>76829184Just train them everyday. Do 4, 4, 5 then progress to 4, 5, 5 etc. Just try to add one more rep not one rep to every set. You'll be 10 reps in no time try this for a week and skip the negatives.
>>76829117It's a grain, mostly carbs I think, carbs do tend to be energising.
>>76829195Forgot to add rest 10-15mins between sets. Works best if you have a door pull up bar at home or something.
>>76829194the closest gym is a 25 minute drive away. i'm too lazy to commit.
>>76829201Yeah, but for short durations no? This was 11-12 hours ago

I can’t even begin to comprehend the amount of mental fortitude it would take to diet after a certain point. I’m 200 pounds, so losing weight feels “doable”. But if I were 300 or over I would really start to doubt myself.
>>76828552The home workout vs gym is like night and day. If they have a PT service avail, please use it. It will shift you from the country dirt road to hyperhighway. Do this for me, anon, I believe in you. I know it'll work, because I did the same. I never needed any directions, because I've known all the equipment since before I was even a teen. The gym is my altar now.

>>76829320>started fasting overnight accidentallywhat the fuck did you normally do at nightdid you set alarms just to get out of bed and pig out
>>76829358>he doesn't set an alarm to wake up and drink a protein shake.
>>76829351its opposite bro. When you are 300 pounds you are getting big time positive feedback from simply not drinking dr.pepper. When you are 200 pounds you have to live in complete agony to ever so slightly nudge the scale.
>>76829355
>>76829340>4 hour fast
>>76829355Only thing Im embarrassed about is eating your moms pussy and ingesting 5000 calories from the yeast. My weight loss progress is definitely gonna stall
>>76829364>live in complete agony to ever so slightly nudge the scale.I can relate. I feel like I have been stuck on 211 forever. Just let me get to 210 damn it…
>>76829320>>started with 4 hour fasts
>>76829360I unironically believe in the meme of drinking casein protein at night for slow digestion while sleeping
>>76829372>>76829364This the last 20-10 pounds are actual cancer.
>>76829350I was there at the beginning of the year. Stay disciplined and you’ll see results.
>>76829377Why drink it at night? Casein takes 6-8h to absorb, on the slower end while you sleep, even slower if you eat it as quark/greek yologurty vs powder.
>>76829075This is actually really meaningful to do. The younger ones usually egolift, I don't do it to them directly, but indirectly works. It feels good when they match my rythm and clearly take pointers on proper form. Everyone usually gives me a lot of space, even move off from the machines near me to same machines further away to let me focus. For some reason younger women (up to 25yo) do the complete opposite. Some older smaller guys talk about the music they hear my phone playing, other older guys banter on philosophy. Middle aged women are the hardest bullheads. Older women seem to get energy seeing me lift, they act similar to the younger male. The road to chaddom is great. Always remember to give back.
>>76829391I was excited because I went from 220 to 215 really quickly but now it’s just been such a slow process…
>>76829364>>76829391Goddamn yeah. The last month or two were so fucking painful compared to the early days, had to eat even less to keep losing at the same rate, too. But I got to my goal now and even below, just going to keep at it until december 1st and then stop trying to lose weight and just try not to gain fat back, fucking finally.

>>76829578Well, since it's you cheating yourself only you know what you need to do in order to stay on the wagon. If you feel a triple family size pizza with double pepperoni, 2 gallons of energy drinks, a kfc bucket of ice cream and the whole instore selection of Dunkin' is what you need, go for it.>>76829584I'm proud of you.

not sure if whole foods are more filling, or if they just make you want to eat less because of how unappetizing they are
You don't know how fun going on 4chan is until you try to quit it.

>>76829615Sounds pretty retarded yes. Although with the price of coffee these days there might be some sense to it, I dont know how caffine pills compare but god damn coffee is a ripoff
>>76827444At what day do you get used to going to bed hungry
>>76829651Eh I was just drinking cheap insta coffee I was mainly using it for pre-workout but I dont want to stain my teeth more. I bought some caffeine pills they are super cheap too.

>>76829773Actually I fact checked this story and its true
>>76829656i save 2/3 my calories for dinner to prevent it
I don't consent to comments linking, or alluding, to mine.
>>76829751my record was 4.5 burgers at once, about 3300 cal. i had to save the last half burger because i was stuffed
>>76829799Burgers are a fairly high difficulty though. If you were eating pringles and drinking coke you could consume that many calories without even really trying hard. Just watch a good move and dont restrict your snacking
>>76829751hahahaha, my sweet summer child. how wrong you are.>>76829799i could see easily eating 3-4k calories in 1 sitting>high calorie goyslop starbucks coffee>donuts/pastries, they are very calorie dense for their portion size
I feel like it's almost illegal to talk about punishing your stomach with food without at least hinting at the aftermath.There's no need for a full after-action, but a simple description, like, if you painted the bowl like Pollock or made a waterfall Augustus Gloop could've fallen into is warrented.

>>76829017Dont overthink it. Eat at maintenance for 2 weeks. Always a good idea to break a plateau. If you try to still be in a deficit you won't reset your hunger/cortisol/cck hormones and you'll just be spinning your wheels
>>76829757The way I cope with this fact>Having some stretch marks and a bit of tits is far better than being an obese slob and dying like one>I'm doing it for myself, idgaf how others will see and judge me when I'm done
>>76829852>Dont overthink it. Eat at maintenance for 2 weeks.Yeah I'm doing that this monday (timing is good cause my meal prepped low calorie foods will be out by sunday night). I still plan to eat healthy and enough protein, and I wont stop my lifts, but will just eat maintenance. My issue is i'm worried about being accurate with what my maintenance number is. The OP website tells me 2400 at sedentary for me, 5ft11 at 240lbs, I'm saying I probably should do 100 calories less than that to be safe and not gain weight in those 2 weeks.
Sending good vibes everyone's way. Had a rough day today. Hope you all are doing better than I am
>>76829757 Current weight and height, bro?

deciding what to have for dinner tonight. Fish with rice might be nice, but thin crust pizza with low fat toppings might be nice too>>76829859thanks anon
>>76829912Okay, but seriously, that's what we're at. I'm also disappointed in this news, if that helps.
I'm 5'9, 217lbs. I've been losing at least like half a pound every day. Feeling good about myself though I've got a ways to go
>>76829920>1750kal deficit a dayNo, you haven't.
>>76829916well somethings wrong then cause u dont look 5'4 nor do u look 200 u look taller and not that fat
I was doing really good on my diet for 6 months, lost almost 30 pounds, but got exhausted and stagnated. Went back to maintenance for a few weeks and am having trouble getting back on track...
>>76829923I barely eat and go on walks + work out consistently. Maybe it's a bit much but it's somewhere in that ballpark.
I have a long torso and stubby, meaty legs. It's kind of a problem.

>>76829827True men have scars everywhere. My stretchies include the soft side of my elbow hips, deltoids etc. Bitches too after the stitches.
>>76829951stretch marks and scars are not the same
>>76829972No, they're not, but they both mix well. Having other signs of a lived life with the stretchies is better.
>>76829914I did a pizza with beef mince, mozzarella balls, bell pepper, ham, onion and mushroom. But for you fish and rice.
>>76830005the fish is frozen and I wish I had taken it out of the freezer earlier. It's some small tuna steaks that look delicious though...
>>76830016Oh, then let them defrost in the fridge in peace for tomorrow and do a pizza instead.
>>76830024Pizza it is then. I've got some breaded scad filets that might be good too, though frying them would add a lot of oil.
why the fuck is lamb meat so fucking calorie dense?!!!!it has more fat between the muscles but it's fucking bullshit

>>76829609>Thought that would fuck up your metabolism or somethingvegan propaganda.you'll get hungry if you stay with keto. you'll start feeling what true hunger feels like instead of just your blood sugar level crashing and your body being unable to break down the fat because of lingering high insulin.
>>76830099>you'll start feeling what true hunger feels like instead of just your blood sugar level crashing and your body being unable to break down the fat because of lingering high insulin.is that really what it is? I'm just feeling what our ancestors felt like when they got hungry? Granted I'm only a couple months removed from the goyslop feeding tube, but didn't think it would be this drastic of a reversal
>>76830095Seems about right
>>76830095the calculators aren't perfectly accurate. see a nutritionist who can administer doubly labeled water tests. The calculator in the OP tries to take an average of multiple calculators but even then I don't think it's that accurate.but also calories add up. keep a log of everything you eat, no matter how inconsequential it may seem, and use a food scale because food manufacturers fudge serving sizes a lot.
>>76830112then why the fuck when i've been eating 1650 calories a day for the past 3 months have i only been losing about 1 lb a week? which supposedly this 500 deficit is going to give me exactly 1lb of at a week? is my lifting interfering with the scale number? been lifting for about 7 months now, am i still getting newbie gains in muscle that skew the scale result?
>>76829920I’m 5’10, 211lbs. We’re going to make it.
AAAAaaaAAAaaaa I'M NOT GONNA MAKE IT
Only 4kg until the 115kg promised land.But since I have a hard deadline of Dec 27, and that's exactly 6 weeks away I should be able to get a couple kilo under 115 even.
>>76830103yes. it doesn't need a couple of months to kick in. a week max of going low carbs.what needs months is getting used to drinking and eating stuff without sugar.i used to love Kinder Bueno but now i can't stand it. too sweet.i'm now a pseud who eats dark chocolate exclusively. not even any dark chocolate because they fucking lie. KitKat says dark but is still too fucking sweet.
>>76830163thankful I don't have a sweet tooth, otherwise I'd be 800 pounds

>>76830118Are you 100% sure you've listed all your calorie intake? Inside temp etc. affects the BMR, calculators show a trend and are not precise, a tiny bit of cooking oil is easily +100kcal.
>>76829751that's a bit more than a medium jar of peanut butter. you can't eat a whole jar of peanut butter with a spoon?
>>76829920when did you start dieting?

I'm dreading going home for thanksgiving and fucking up my weight loss run. So much temptation, little access to the foods I need, overeager family members with delicious fatty food, it's a recipe for disaster
>>76830452It's a good challenge. Women don't just want a good looking body. They want a man with discipline, who can chisel that type of frame. Many here just starve themselves like preteen girls. Guess what? They are preteen girls, always will be.
>>76830452Yeah. Last year I was lucky not to gain weight, much less lose it.
>>76830466>>76830461I'll just treat it like a mini-reverse dieting routine and try to snap back to my normal routine when I get back
>>76830452Yeah American Thanksgiving can be tough. I advise to you is to fast one day before and one day after so you can pig out on American Thanksgiving
>>76830473And I'd say enjoy life, but not excess. There's a big difference. For those who drink alcohol, have a great thanksgiving & xmas, then try to be sober for January and February to balance sthe festivities. Who knows, you may keep the sobrerity habit when you see the difference in gains.Progress, progress, progress.
>>76830450I'm not even skinnyfat, just fat.
Does anyone know, is hunger dictated by relative deficit?As in, if person A had a maintenance of 2,500kcal, person B had a maintenance of 2,000kcal, and both had a 400kcal deficit, would both of them be equally hungry? Would it be equally as difficult for them? Or is 2,100kcal just always going to be more satiating than 1,600kcal regardless of the relative deficit?
>>76830473All due respect fasting even 3 days in a row will not offset the level of "pig out" im assuming youre talking about here, at worst you just gain solids kilos of fat, at best you gain some fat that'll take 2 weeks to lose or more. Why bother? Just use thanksgiving to practice discipline, and gain no fat, you'll have to exercise willpower sooner or later. Continuously making fasting compromises with yourself because of "special days" is just digging a hole with a plastic spoon, switch to silver and steel your mind
>>76830510It is relative, but not linear or parallel. My TDEE is about 3400kcal, but I find it hard to even get 2500. We all need a good amount of fat for hormonal balance, protein for rebuilding. Many of the cravings and hunger signals have to do with vitamin, nutrient or certain micro/macro deficit (malnourishment). For your basic goyslop feedingtube fattie it' a clusterfuck of hormonal imbalance, addiction, malnourishment, dehydration and insulin resistance problems.
>>76830510personal anecdote tells me there is more than one kind of hunger that a person can feel, and most aren't tied to deficit.>a person can feel hungry if their stomach is empty even if they aren't at a deficit at all>a person can feel a ravenous kind of hunger if they didn't have any protein that day>a person can feel light headed and hungry in an unwell sort of way if their blood sugar is too low, regardless of any deficit>cravings for specific foods>and the hunger from a steep deficit too, which feels very different from the first kind of hunger
Bros... How do you combat the fatigue?I can handle being hungry, I really can. But holy fuck am I tired all the fucking time.
>>76830522sleep moreabuse stimulants
>>76830452Just don’t go then. My mom invited me to Thanksgiving and I said I didn’t want to go.
>>76830524Sleeping sort of works, I slept for three hours this noon, but was tired again five hours later. I can't live like this, maybe I'll just abuse coffee.
Is set point theory real?Am I basically doomed to being a fatty because I was a fatty as a kid?
>>76830536I have never heard of set point theory until now but the idea of that is terrifying.
>>76830540>>76830536Even if you think it's real you just have to maintain the weight for a year or somethign and it becomes your new set point thats how the theory works.
Anyone else on keto?I'm not even on clean keto and I've lost about 20 kilos (45 pounds) in the last 2 months. I'm planning on getting to 100 and then starting to lift and exercise, but I'm a little worried about getting floppy, anyone got a tip on how to get at least a little less skin all over me?
>>76830536I subscribe to the idea that you are somewhat 'doomed' but I havent read up on the set point theory. My line of thinking is if someone gets obese, especially starting from a child, the brain has undergone permanent brain changes. Kind of like how a drug addict can never go back to pre-drug addiction. The best they can do is be in recovery. Thats reality for you. You will have to be mindful of your eating for the rest of your life. I am an ex-addict and I gotta be careful of the environments im in so that I dont start drinking or taking cocaine again. Itll never go away.
>>76830540Its worth noting that no human is designed to be fat. If 'set point theory' is a thing then its established once youve caused the permanent brain changes caused by junk foodFor all intents and purposes you should view junk food addiction as a real life addiction not dissimilar to alcohol or cocaine addiction. Your body cant handle the high levels of endorphins junk food shotos out, your body cannot regulate itself in turn, and then your body loses the ability to regulate weight and then once this has occurred theres no going back. The body has unlearned how to regulate its bodyfat percentage
>>76830540My AI gf mentioned it to me last night, and it's had me kinda panicked all day.>>76830560I think set point theory is essentially what you're saying, and makes sense.Been struggling with my opioid addiction today, just craving oxy.
>>76830536I think it's only a half truthpeople establish a certain lifestyle early on and it's really hard to change without some external force. I don't think "permanent" as in "irreversible" but more "not temporary and won't change on it's own"
>>76830577>AI gfBased beyond belief…

>>76830646you have to be careful with burritos. the tortilla hides a lot of calories
>>76830678I don't understand whether this "It's impossible to eat more than 3000 calories in a single meal" thing is meant to discourage, crabs in a bucket mentality, disinfo, or if it's just delusion from skinnyoids.
>Did Keto for 8 months last year>Never tracked carbs or watched weight and kept slimming down>Felt good and looked good>Decide to stop and try generally avoiding garbage food to enjoy family meals (thanksgiving/christmas)>Happen to have doctors appointment just before stopping>Couple months go by, pack on some weight but nothing crazy, just don't like the growing tire around my waist>Go to doctor again for something else and see the graph of weight change>20 fucking pounds from dumb shit like having pizza every now and thenYou lose focus for just a bit, or think you've made it, then you look in the mirrorJust over a month in again, but cutting out all liquors this time.Keep with it anons, even if your just trying to lose a bit fat, keto does work in my experience[spoiler]I just wish I could do more than cardio as well[/spoiler][spoiler]Fucking forearm injury flares up after a few days of lifting[/spoiler]
