never had acne when i was fat, now that ive lost some of the weight ive become an acne ridden 21 year old, idk if this shit is worth it anymore
Anyone here else afraid of loose skin once you reach your desired weight? I’m cutting down 10kgs/ 22lbs to get to my desired weight, three years ago when I was 10kgs less I didn’t have any abs showing cause I wasn’t fully trained in the gym. I’m afraid the loose skin reaper will get me once I lose 7 more kgs and abs not showing
are all you guys eating chicken tuna and yogurt and eating powdercan't get into the habit
>>76830911That is Gods way of telling you you'll never be pretty and happy.Zits or fat tits, your choice mister ugo.
Down 30 lbs since Oct 6 308 to 2781200-1600/cals a day with relatively minimal exercise. High protein and soda water keeps me feeling full.
>>76831019Damn anon that's great progress, how are you so motivated?
>>76831036I've lost weight before and didn't keep it off because I wasn't meal prepping, and was kind of loose about how I was doing everything. So knowing I can do it if I just set my systems up well and follow the plan so it feels effortless removes motivation from the equation mostly because I only have to think about meal prep once a week, and what I'm going to eat is just ready for me at any given time vs hunting for bad food to eat.Just making sure my diet is high protein, satiating foods and drinking a lot of flavored water/soda water really helps. The main factor is I'm just tired of being a fat ass and want to see what I'm capable of if I put in even minimal effort to better myself. Want to see what stable 10% bodyfat feels like in my adult life.

>>76830958I'm down 110lbs and have pretty minimal loose skin only at the lower ab/love handle area. I think you'll be perfectly fine and much better off having lost the weight.

>>76831649I'd give you advice but you won't listen. You'll learn from your mistakes.
>>76831691110lbs? Holy fuark mirin the weight loss man, so that loose skin wouldn’t be a problem for me considering I’m losing 22lbs rn and you’ve lost 5x more yet you claim minimal loose skin and still upper abs visibility?
>>76831680For the same reason troons, magic pillists, starvationist post here. Self-deception and a want to disillusion.
>>76831778
Beans are underrated
>>76831793I really don't think so, pic rel is me 5 minutes ago, the skin isn't too bad, imo. I had to pull it to show it off, but it is there. Abs aren't super visible, but that's more to do with me having a bit more fat to go. Plus absolutely no tan atm. I'm not going to pretend to be an expert, but I was over 300lbs at my heaviest and now I'm steady at 190 to 200. You can see the stretch marks I've got, those are a bigger reality check to me than any extra skin.
>>76830830The power disballance between my right hand and my left hand just from gooning 25 years is insane, I can't lift 1/5th of weight with my left hand that I can compared to the right one. Will this balance out eventually?
>>76831830You were extremely lucky
>>76831838You balance it at the gym by starting every arm including excercise with your left hand & matching the reps with your right. I also suggest you learn to goon with your off-hand. Think of it as a workout method.
Lmao fucking nerd shit. I tried dieting for a month but I just didn't have the mega autism required. Insted I just started walking to and from work. It's literally that easy, 45 minutes each way and I lost 5kg (81.5kg to 76.5kg) since July without any nerd shit. The reason I got fat btw was that I kept eating unhealthy shit as I ramped up my training so I didn't really mind gaining kgs, so I did kick the fast food habit, but that's about it. Walking just werks
>>76831910You sound like a faggot
>>76831910>got fat>81.5kgAre you 160cm tall?
>>76831918Y-you t-too
>>76831920180cm. The point is I went from like 75 to 82-ish. It was clear which way it was going. Why wait until it gets out of hand, better to nip it in the bud
>>76831926true, smart thinking. Sorry for assuimng you're short.
>>76830841On Thursday I ate about 4200 calories. At least I counted them all I guess
Are the calories in digital bikes accurate?What margin of error should I get? I was thinking of doing a tiny bit each day and if I measure it at least I can be more sure of myself.Its better to do a tiny bit each day rather than killing myself on the bike one day a week.
>>76831910This is the way.Inb4>i hate fatties so much its unreal
>>76831933Nps. I know I'm being a douche about it, but my shilling for big walk is genuine. It's so much nicer to just set off 90 minutes to work on weight loss instead of it being a 24 hour ordeal. It's like a "*free" way to shunt calories because it doesn't interfere with any of my other workouts
>>76831952You kill yourself with the bike every single day. That is the difference between a man and a fat useless bitch aka preteen tiktoker girl.
>>76831963Pointless bravado. Fitness is fun if you let it be. Ever since I figured out what I like I haven't felt like struggling, even when I push myself to the absolute limit. Unless you derive enjoyment from killing yourself on the bike (more power to you!) then why put yourself through unnecessary suffering?
ugh, ate my OMAD too quickly and now my tummy hurts... :(
>>76831981This is true, but a fattie NEET doing 5 minutes on a bike daily thinking >this will make me thin & get girls, right momma chicken tendieis just autistic cope and self-deception. The other extreme is being a man, and it's closer to what he should actually be doing, where his mindset should be. Not thinking about the bare minimum, but beast maximum.
>scale said 196 today>still fat>still feel awful>look no different from when I was 230
>>76832009Starvation or workout?
>>76832009Just how it goes brother always ways to improve. WAGMI
>>76832002That's just you projecting. Your idea of manliness is a recipe for burnout. I guarantee you I mog everyone ITT by a mile, but mentally I'm not harder than any of you, I just realized I could sign up for group classes and let someone tell me what I should do. That way it doesn't take any willpower, all I do is show up and follow orders. That's how I went from being a burnout unfit (literally 0 workouts/week) to working out 7 days/week and enjoying it.

>>76832009you look different to others if that means anything
>>76832031just drizzle some EVOO on it, problem solved
Bros, how accurate is this image? I think I'm around 20% because I can kind of see my abs if I flex but have 0 vascularity in my arms.
>>76832015I've just been eating lessCan't find the motivation to workout
>>76832061Accurate or not, it's useless for gauging your own bodyfat percent unless you have the same amount of muscles underneath as the guy in the pic.
>>76832061https://youtu.be/5K9QhkPww44
>>76832093Thanks, I watched this when it was posted before. I still don't know best guess I could do for myself is like high teens to low twenties.
>>76832061it isn't accurate at all. i have my 40% boobs on my 25ish body fat now
>>76832027>I guarantee you I mog everyone ITTYou're in the fat loss general. I'd ask you to post your body to prove your premise, but we all know that you won't, And you'll just respond with some witty retort like "I'm not going to give you jerk off material"
>>76832009For me I reached 170 and I still think I look like shit. I have to keep believing there's a pot of gold waiting for me at the end of the rainbow (160lbs)
>>76832081>it's useless for gauging your own bodyfat percent unless you have the same amount of muscles underneath as the guy in the pic.This, and I have never seen an image like this that doesn't have people who obviously work out a lot in the lower %.
>>76832027>no uI'm not going there, faggot. In my view the neet has done the bare minimum by being a feedingtube goyslop abuser to the point he wants to change his ways. Trying to achieve that goal by going at it with the bare minimum mentality will end up in failure, just as with your burnout cope.It's a journey where you learn your limits, you clearly have and I applaud you on that. The NEET who tries a bike once, says it's too hard and immediately turns back to bare minimum doesn't have an idea. Staying out of the uncomfortable leads to the same situation as with the burnout.
Will jogging instead of walking trick my body into thinking it needs to lose more fat? So that it can be more efficient at jogging?
>>76832140No
>>76832093uhhhh do thin, muscle-less people don't exist anymore?people are either fat or ripped?
>>76832121I don't really have much footage on my phone, only a video but I'm not gonna dox myself, so this is all you're getting
>>76832158Twigs don't go outside enough to be hounded by Nippard
>>76832140Just do resistance training and carry weights if you want to lose more for the same distance. For me, my city's pretty walkable so I grab and carry groceries for the exercise. That or ankle weights.
could you get loose skin from losing 30 lbs?
>>76832159>blurry, clothed image, clearly showing a person with no definition hunched overYeah, Thanks for proving my point. Next time, try not speaking so highly of yourself in a general where people obviously aren't in the best shape.
>>76832163I've already been carrying dumbells for my cardio while I walk. I am just super frustrated being stalled for around 2 weeks with no progress for the suffering. Trying to find anything else I can do to help it along.
>>76832164maybedepends on genetics and agelike if all 30lbs were in your stomach then it would do more damage than someone who distributed it all over their body
>>76832164Typically not, but its *possible* if you lost it EXTREMELY quickly
>>76832164Little bit but it should shrink with time and you can fill it in with muscle.
>>76832168Here fagtron, just for you. Now let's see Paul Allens physique.
Thank god I live alone nowLiving with other fatasses (my family) makes it virtually fucking impossible to lose weight when they have cookies, candy, chips, and soda in every nook and cranny in the house.

>>76832138>>76832121>>76831963>>76831981I only asked if 300 calories in the bike clock are roughly equal to 300 calories in real life, for fucks sake
>>76832277>Its better to do a tiny bit each day rather than killing myself on the bike one day a week.No you didn' retardAnd the answer is no.
>>76832284What is the estimate then
I'm so fed up I'm going to hop on test once I get lean.
>>76832288The estimate includes the BMR calories you would burn in that time as well. So you have to subtract your bmr calories for the amount of time you spent doing cardio from the estimate. Even then it tends to over estimate a bit.
>>76832264You shouldn't use words you don't know the meaning of.

Fatty ContestYuffa104kgI'm tired of being fat. I was fat my entire life cause of shitty habits my parents did.They even blame me and just tell me to just not eat meanwhile they constantly hound me when I don't or try to. Even family and friends do the same shit, I'll be the rudest person ever if they keep forcing it, nobody is going to make me fat ever again.I hate what they did, but I'll use that rage to lose weight or die trying.I decided to tell my family that they made me fat growing up and to never talk to me about food again. They seemed quiet and I know they're gonna ignore it and just yell at me to eat, they did this beforeI'm joining this shit, this is going to be the last time I'll even be fat

im not fat per se
>>76832685How big is your deficit? With a 500kcal deficit you can switch to having three 500kcal meals. If you feel that's not enough then eat foods that are more filling.Also you just kind of have to accept that you will feel some hunger. It's not scary, it's just annoying.
Whenever i eat slop my joints hurt, slop is really bad for you.
I just found i am 90% indigenous Mexican according to ancestry DNA. I have no idea how this will help me lose weight, but I thought it was worth sharing.
>>76832731It's hard to gauge. With LoseIt's data (sedentary, lose 3/4 kg per week) my deficit is about 800, but if we're using the Kath-McArdle TDEE then it's only 400. A friend of mine told me that with my weight (109 kg, 181 cm) 1700 calories is basically starving myself especially since I'm not really sedentary anymore (work retail and walk 5k steps on days off). I'm not really scared of hunger as much as overeating. So many things have more calories than you'd think, and I'm already terrified that I'm overestimating my TDEE with Loseit and that the food I eat (live with parents so it's my mom's cooking) I'm not measuring properly. I already assume the higher end of anything I eat, just to not lowball it.
>>76832760I'm so sorry
>>76830841I haven't been weighing myself. I just gauge it by how visibly less fat I look. I just don't want to disappoint myself with the scale.

They sell diet dr pepper with 0 caffeine now.I dont really feel much a craving for anything desu.Ive also always been more or less depressed but these past few weeks I've been feeling a lot better.>>76832883Most i find is stuff relating to the acidity affecting teeth and it may cause cancer but all those cancer links are inconclusive.
I could easily eat 30 bananas a daycan you live only off a banana-only diet?
>>76832889idk bout vascularity but they give me huge boners
>>76832891Why not stop consoooming the diet soda for a month and see how that affects you?
>>76832892lmao monkey boy
>>76832898I guess its worth a try. I'll probably do it once I go back to maintenance because I fear that it is the only reason I've been so consistent so far.
Any tips for sustainable alcoholism?
>>76832932The best tip, stop drinking.
>>76832919I had no issues dropping soda a couple weeks ago but it's not the same for everyone I bet.
>>76832934I stopped some months ago and it's ruining my life.
>>76832954How is not drinking ruining your life?
Fatty ContestCaptainPlanet117.9kg
>>76832932>>76832954The lack of alcohol isn't ruining your life. The problem that you used alcohol to cover up is. If you stay on that path you'll eventually just create more problems. I would recommend looking into Allen Carr's easy way.
For dinner I dropped rice/pasta/potatoes/bread and added more veggies. This made managing calories a lot easier. Thanks for reading, please like and subscribe.

>>76833068Why do you think protein powder exists
>>76833068Eat chicken, it isn't hard
>>76833068calc with your lean mass, not your entire mass
>>76833068just aim for low calorie high protein, its not important for weight loss anyway, just for people who want to get a head start on looking good once the weight is gone.
>>76833068There's tons of anabolic recipes on youtube, pretty much anything that's 10g protein per 100kcal is good. If you use low fat greek yogurt, chicken, and lean ground beef then it's ez mode.
>>76833070fake protein isnt real protein

im looking at my before and after photos from about ~4 months apart and if i'm not flexing it kind of looks the same, maybe a little more definition around my arms and i look skinnier. however when i flex it makes a world of difference, it's unrecognizable. should i be flexing when i take photos for comparison??
>>76833343Just dont eat bro
Surprising benefit of zepbound: zero sugar soda tastes a LOT better/ easier to substitute out the full sugar king.
>>76833366I just assume everyone is flexing in all pictures.
>>76833366When I bother to take progress pics, I always do two, one flexing and one relaxed.
>>76832719Stop looking at faults or find victims. It's time to rise.
Think I need to go up to the 7.5mg dose of Mounjaro. The first week on the 2.5mg dose was a revelation, and ever since I've been chasing it, but neither continued 2.5mg or the 5mg dose has come close to hitting it.Hopefully the 7.5 or 10 (they're the same price) is enough maintenance for me.

This GLP-1 I got from Hims is crazy.I can barely get myself to eat 1500 calories in a day now.It's put things into perspective on how fucking much I used to eat.
>>76833425Go walk, jog, cycle, swim 5-7 times a week for 60-80 minute per session. You'll see, feel and measure the difference in a month.
>weight goes downThreadly reminder that WAGMI
>>76833499Best feeling.
>>76833499Fat goes burn, muscle goes pop.
>>76833493Thanks yeah im starting lifting, bench arrived yesterday but i gotta clear a space for it. Walking 4km a day minimum but it's not enough, not really getting the calories burned. I guess I should just be happy im actually losing weight.
>>76833524I was doing IF, eating window from 6-8h. I did cardio in the morning in a fasted state and my gut just started to disappear. I'm on my muscle gain streak on my recomp now, can't do IF, gym and cardio at the same time, so what I'm doing now resembles a bulk somewhat. But that cardio and IF in BMR average really balanced my hormones. Felt great. I went from 5.7km/h to 6.3, then started jogging. A good slingshot and base to lifting.
I am so fucking nervous/embarrassed to do weight training at the gym for some reason. It's an Anytime Fitness it's by far the closest gym to me. I went in for the first time today and there were already a couple serious-looking guys at the dumbbells and barbells and I just went to the treadmills and walked for a mile and then left.How do I just get over it and try?
>>76833371>kekbound

any potheads here? do you find weed makes you eat more? it 100% gives me the munchies. I try to fill up on salads and shit because i know if i smoke im gonna want to eat slop. Any tips? besides stop smoking it im aware of all the negative aspects but it's literally my only vice
>>76830830It's bad enough to become a fatass, but it's so much worse to have been a fatass, become fit and then revert back to fatassFuck it, this time for sure bros
>>76833561You're much more likely to get weird glances if you just keep staring at the free weight area. Just put the weights up and down, it'll look way less weird than whatever you're doing
>>76833561Put in some ear buds, remember that everyone there also started from somewhere, and that no one is going to remember you 5 seconds after you leave their sight.Seriously, you should be more embarrassed to walk outside because at least in the gym you have the excuse that you're doing something about it.
>>76833586you can do it man i believe in you
>>76833613Thanks buddy, WAGMI
>>76833574Start eating it instead of smoking (edibles), go for sativa dominant strains. I don't snack, my go sweet fulfilment is once a month grapes and dark chocolate, sometimes halva. I usually eat it with a functional side in mind, after a beast leg day etc. Whatever you decite to eat cook it yourself. Self made burgers with self made pickled red onions, gelapenos etc. Go for quality over quantity. Drink plenty of water, it tastes the best with edibles. With the right strain I keep on dancing or playing the bass, so I might actually lose more than gain. I usually don't eat anything major prior to eating my cannabutter.
I wanna start doing bench press, but I don't have anyone to spot me at home, and I don't want to go to a gym. Is there a machine that will stop me from crushing myself?
>>76833574>>76833625Oh, and ypu can peopably sense it, I'm quite high right now.Also, fuck you you retarded druggie. NGMI.
>>76833626Dumbbell bench press
>>76833626Go to the fcking gym. It has all the machines, new friends and smaller risk of injury compared to your home rig possibilities. Home is a waste of time compared to what a beginner can do in gym environment.Oh, and do push ups.

so i get my tape measure and get my waist and neck measurements. and chatgpt says i'm 28% body fat while gemini says i'm 22%. they both insist they are using navy formula. i guess the safe bet is to assume i'm the heavier one...?
>>76833638i can't go to the gym. i avoid women
>>76833661Use the calculator in the topic. Ask GPT how it bases its' answer.
>>76830841I stuck my tongue in a girls butt on several occasions. They had just bathed beforehand, if that makes me any less guilty father ( ;=;)

>>76833837Try ashwagandha for starters. And gym or cardio. You tone down your cortisol there.
i'm so fucking depressed, drinking water does nothing
i'm glad to announce that i went 300 calories as extra deficit beyond my intended deficit of 500 calories to compensate for eating at me TDEE the day before!now only 200 more calories remain so i can split them over separate days!back on track soon™!

>look at advice for stopping drinking>i have an addictive personality and suffer hard from addiction >advice I get is HURR DURR TRADE ALCOHOL FOR WEED LMAO
>>76833934>i have an addictive personality and suffer hard from addictionbe like me and make your addiction "health & wellness" instead. If you're not autistically ruminating for at least an hour a day on what your next meal plan is gonna be, your upcoming grocery list, workout regime, jogging route, etc., you're not doing it right. Addictive personalities can be a huge boon if you focus it right
>>76833934Weed is not good. I'll give you that. It has its problems.But, Weed is astronomically better that Alcohol. Alcohol is a literal poison.It would be better to live drug free of course but if you have to choose one drug to consume i feel like Weed is the most harmless.
>>76833934>>76833951I'm guessing you're american so you have easy access to kratom. I'd say it's better than weed because it doesn't make you stupid, but the tradeoff is that the withdrawals will be severe if you ever want to quit. Both are vastly better options than alcohol.
>>76833661Just put that info into a calculator. LLMs get calulations wrong all the time cause they weren't really trained to do that.
>>76832093Took a screenshot of the comparison. The same lighting, camera, being fasted + dxa scan is useful, but needs way more body types and muscle levels to be truly useful.
is the navy method usually off since people overestimate their lean mass?
>>76833981>6'>118kg>still look worse than 50%It's so over
>>76833998Decently accurate considering the price/convenience. Works well if you're in the normal height and weight range. And as long as you measure properly (that's a big if). People tend to fudge the measurements. It's not perfect but it's good enough for an estimate.
>woken up in the middle of the night by hemorrhoids >hungry as fuck, can't go back to sleep no rest for the wicked huh?
whoosh'd away a kilogram of weight overnight after a two week plateaufeels good
>>76834026How do you screw up the measurements?My weight has been going down linearly and my waist goes down an inch every 3 weeks. I compared side by side my photo from last month and this month and they look identical. Same lighting, position, time of day, everything.Navy body fat says im 20% now but I still have a belly and love handles.
most of you Americans fasting the days surrounding Thanksgiving so you can eat that day with less guilt?
>start showing results>clothes are getting baggyPeople either do one of two things now.They either seem drained or they start asking me how I do it.Anyone else notice that people who think they doomed to be fat act really fuckin weird when you start showing results of weight loss?One dude just keeps boasting about how many burgers they can eat in a day.One of my coworkers, who's a heavier older lady, almost refuses to make eye contact with me now and just looks psychologically drained.This shit is like fucking gaining magic powers or something and im not even good enough in my eyes yet.

Lately I've been wearing 5XL shirts because it efficiently hides my fat gut and I feel a little better, but part of me feels like it's denial/cope to do soI usually wear 3XL and it goes alright, sometimes if I stretch my stomach shows, but ideally I want to go down to L or XL

Faddies, why are you so mesmerized by what the scale shows? Why is it so hard to just eat less, move more and make that your new lifestyle? The obsessive wheighing in just indicates you're still in the faddie mindset. Extremes and obsessiveness indicate ngmi faddie mindset. I'm really interest in knowing why you slobs take the road to failure the instant you start trying.
>>76835047It's hard to feel the difference between every pound lost, seeing it on a scale gives me motivation
>>76835047Because I'm trying to get lean braza. If the scale isn't moving it means I am not losing fat. Scale moves and lifts stay the same means I am losing fat. It's just that simple. I will get to sub 15% and a girl will touch my penis in 2026.
Why are you so fat and obese?
>>76835063Just God giving me struggles to balance out my 8x6.5 inch penis
>>76835052Your motivation is external validation driven, it's not sustainable. The motivation that comes from change from within is the baseline for true change. I bet ypu'll retuen to your old ways sooner than later, because in your mind somehow "seeing it work" is the same as it working, and you just stop. That's what externally driven motivation gets you.>>76835056If you're not lying to yourself, moving more and eating less slop, why do you need the number on the scale to validate it, even worse why do you fistly need the number to validate the action that lead you there? By that mindset of arbitrary goals you're on the road to failure and frustration.

>>76835393Good work bro how much did your lifts suffer?
>>76835426I used to 1RM 395, 505, 330 for squat, deadlift, and bench press. I haven't even attempted a 1RM lately, but doing a set of 5 at 255, 350, and 225 really tuckers me out. I've been mixing up my workout routines a lot lately just to see if there's something I really enjoy. I started running a couple of years ago and recently got into calisthenics.
