I looked into the mirror and didn't hate myself today. WAGMI
I have to get a new job but I'm 40 pounds lighter than before and can bench more so maybe it'll work out
I want to lose weight and work hard at the gym so that I might one day look like this irl

>>77057402You're right I'll be something even better
two weeks of eating the exact same stuff every day has worn on me slightlyI think I'll take the same ingredients and turn them into a stir fry or a soup or something to mix things up
>>77057398you waited for a new thread, didn't you

Day 34/60 of water fast.I have been feeling like shit for the past few days. No pain or anything but a lot of fatigue, nausea, and bad stomach feelings. I'll try to last till the weekend but I might have to break the fast early if I keep feeling like this. But for some good news, I now need a belt or else I can't wear these pants.
>>77057513Good luck. Remember that literally killing yourself on a long water fast somewhat defeats the purpose of doing it so you should probable lean towards eating sooner rather than later if things don't improve over the next day or two. 30 days is quite the achievement to begin with.
>>77057517>defeats the purpose of doing itWell that depends on his goal, doesn't it. Besides, he's snacking on sun light probably.
>>77057517Thanks for the words but yeah, I'll still wait till the weekend still since I don't want to deal with the refeed shits while at work, assuming I don't feel better.>>77057523I have been slacking hard on getting sunlight/walks in. The cold front has been absolutely killing me as well.
ChatGPT tells me half a roasted chicken with steamed vegetables is about 560 kcals for 80g of proteins, somehow I struggle to believe it's true, is it true? It sounds a bit OP
>>77057513starting weight and current weight?
>>77057543that's the bird of gains for you
>>77057543>chatGPT tells meretard
Fatty Contest GetAggrippa 107.4kgStarting weight 113.5 kgWoke up at a nice 107.0 kg today. Decided to eat 2 sandwiches, since the deli meat was a out to go bad. Went for a nice walk (about 4k steps) now to get some work done. Will go on an extended walk later tonight to get my 15k steps in.How's it going /fat/ anons? Anything on your mind lately?
>>77057617>Decided to eat 2 sandwiches, since the deli meat was a out to go badNext time just eat the meat and skip the rest.
>80 minute walk in -18cthis shit sucks, praying for summer
>>77057640Id imagine you burned more calories than normal just because your body had to struggle to stay warm. Pros and cons to everything
>>77057619I am staying at about 1500kcals a day so that It will be easier to stay at maintanance later and not over eat. So I don't mind the bread since i usually stay at around 1500 anyway.
>>77057552340 > 295 at 5'7"My scale was off and I was guessing for the most part but I went to the doctor today, got weighed, and compared the differences. I underestimated just how fat I was when I started this fast, was actually in pure denial when my scale wasn't really too off...
>>77057398is that your wol? she cute
>>77057354Based improver
>>77057543Stop using AI tools for dieting. You're going to sabotage yourself. And no, that's not even remotely close to true.
Been stuck at same weight since Christmas but my belt is almost a whole size looser... not sure if ive axtually put on muscle again or hwat(probably) but feels better to see that belt move before the scale
>>77057642NTA but Canadian hereHardly, when you go outside at these low temps you wear enough layers to stay warm, only the face and legs a bit might be a bit cold especially if windy. You can always wear a balaclava and thermal pants underneeth your pants or snow pants if its really cold. Point is you're not battling with your body crazy cold for 80 minutes like how long anon said.
>>77057725It does sound about right though, if you don't eat the skin that is.
>>77057794No it doesn't but I'm not going to argue with you
>>77057784>he doesn't do his daily 2h walk in standard trousers and sweater regardless of the weather NGMI
>>77057543>half a roasted chicken with steamed vegetablesAs someone else who uses ChatGPT as a weightloss coach, it doesn't know how you cooked them nor does it know how big the chicken is.I've messed about with thoes AI food loggers to see how it compares to manually tracking and its so far off becuase it can't account for oil used, weight or the actual ingredients. How much meat was on the chicken? What veggies? How much oil? etc. ChatGPT won't account for any of them and just use generic ideas
I realized today that after weighing the homemade cookies I made, that I was only counting them as half as much in my calorie counting app.At least I've learned to weigh my food when in doubt.
I’m finally not overweight, strictly going by numbers. anons. Good feeling but still need to get in better shape
>>77057956Post body
>>77057962No thank you
Should be a rule when you ask to post body, you must also post your body.
I have an arm injury around maybe my brachioradialis (it's nearly tennis elbow but not actually on my elbow).Would eating at maintenance help me recover faster or should I just keep aiming for my protein goal (~150g) and maintain my deficit? For minimizing recovery speed, that is. >go to doctorI've gone to doctors before because this is a common injury for me when I try to start lifting or just from overexertion, they blow me off every time, at best prescribe an anti inflammatory which would actually reduce recovery speed.

Chickpea pasta is so fucking great bros
>>77057941>weighing cookiesDude you're supposed to add up the calories of the individual ingredients you put into them and then simply divide the total by the number of cookies you make. Its that easy.

today I got an italian sub from this awesome deli near my new place. small place, family owned, buncha goofy italian pissers working the joint. it's exactly what you want in a deligot a sub with ham, salami, gabagool, provolone, lettuce/tomato/onions, and salt/pep/oil/vinegar. I still have half left over. I couldn't even tell you how many calories are in that thing but it was fucking amazing. tony soprano would be proudjust gonna take this as a fat self-inflicted L get back on the 1.5k cal bandwagon tomorrow. ain't much else I can do
>>77058281>not a homofag
Lost over 20 kilos from commuting to work by bike for 6 months, but quitting the job 2 months ago made me regain 10 kilos already, I'm back to 90 again. My greed is beyond measure
>>77057543gpt slop retards should never post.
alcohol is to good. I enjoy getting shit faced off beers a few days a week. Is it really holding me back a can is like 200 calories
>>77058173If you are asking this, to calculate your TDEE or for Losertown, don't. The lightly active choice adds a stagering amount of burned calories which don't really add up to 10k steps. For me 10k steps adds about 400-500 kcals burned. Which is not in line with losertowns definition light exercise which adds depending on you weight somewhere from 600 to 700 kcals. Just remain at the lowest default and calculate from there. It will work out.
>>77058479don't worry about you will develop a tolerance once you're no longer a teenager and either quit cause it's no longer feasible to get drunk or drink yourself into an early grave
>ate at TDEE againREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEhow the fuck do i get back on track?
>>77058290I forgive you anon. Just continue tomorrow and keep at it. Give the other half to a friend or family member. You can still make it.
>>77058518Waterfast for one (1) day, just remember to get your electrolytes and salt. Also fasting is no excuse to avoid gym or your daily walk
>>77058518Its fine you ate at TDEE. You made no progress and you didn't fall back. I would agrue that the problem is actually that this is unplanned. While my own journey is still not complete. At the end of the month I will take 1 week to adjust from deficit to maintenance. I dont want to be on this board in a year. So to achieve that I have to learn how to sustain healthy eating habits at TDEE. Adjusting to that steadily is imo a more sustainable way to keep the weight off later.
>>77058524thanks anon, I've been doing good, I'm down 10 lbs in about 8 weeks, so I'm happy with that progress. just can't fall back into retard mode eating and drinking like a fat fuck every day1 day, 1 meal, not bad to bounce back from. I can do it
>>77057689>>77057513>>77057533Welp, broke the fast with some broth. Just felt too bad and had to leave work and I don't want it affecting me like this. 34 days, pretty fucking good, now lets keep this weight loss on track with some proper dieting after my refeeds.
>>77058512I'm 32. I just started drinking again it's fun but I'm not gonna be someone who needs to drink every day
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S000291652302453XInteresting study. Obese participants chewed their food less than the skinny participants, but when instructed to chew every bite 40 times they ate ~11% less. There seems to be evidence that chewing more triggers the stomach to produce appetite suppressing hormones. I actually never thought of chewing as a fatty habit that needed to be corrected, but I do still tend to inhale my food even when it's healthy and portion appropriate
>>77058572or when you have to chew your shit a bunch you get tired and boredor the urge is satisfied earlier
>>77058572Yeah I'm a vacuum cleanerI just suck the food up
Used the navy body fat calculator. To get to 10% > I need to be in the mid 120's is that accurate? I mean damn I know I'm small but that seems low. Not that I can't make it to that number I am well on my way.

I've hit a plateau for the last 5 days. Im in week 5 of my cut, I am hoping I can break through in the next couple of days to bolster my motivation.
>>77058634do a little meth and go dancing
>>77058634do at most 6 weeks and then do a maintenance week unless you're already close to your goal weight
>>77057354I honestly can't remember the last time I did that, must feel nice.
>>77057543retardweigh the chicken pieces and veggies, lookup their nutrition fax, calculate your calories.green veggies can be ignored for calorie calculations. carrots, non-green bell peppers, green beans etc. are borderline.legumes and starchy veggies like kidney beans, peas etc should be counted
I had too much tasty food in my uni's cafeteria today, so I'm already 50cal over my budget.Should I have chicken breast + veggies for dinner and go over the window, or hold off and possibly relapse tomorrow.

I'm quitting Mounjaro. Tired of crapping myself, and it's not nearly the silver bullet it was sold to me as. I'm hoping now that I've switched psych meds too that I'll be less inclined to binge eating, since that was the main problem before.
>been counting calories for 5 months>still don't know my TDEE

>new clothes came in the mail today>they fit me but I look like a fat sack of shitjust install a bunch of body length mirrors in the kitchen
>>77058732read the OP.there are links to calculate it.
>fast >feel like shit all day>don't want to work outIs this smart? Or should I shorten my fasts?
>>77058766do what works for you. i can't fast. i keep thinking about food all the time and my sleep becomes shittier.one anon posted that he sleeps better while fasting.
>>77058774>>77058766I'm retarded. I forgot to drink water and had a big coffee at 7 AM and that's it. I'm gonna walk a bunch this afternoon and lift in the morning.
This might be dumb but is it possible to lose over all weight at the same time as gaining muscle mass?I can see in my mind how it might go both ways.
If I get on trt will I lose my fat fast if I am just lifting
>>77058794Yes you can gain muscle and lose fat at the same time
>>77058810Depending on how fat you are you will have lots of sides because aromatization
>hated taking progress pictures of my body>lose weight for 4+ months and start to look considerably better>now get the urge to take a progress picture every time I see myself in the mirrorFeels nice bros
>>77058811Now for the part of the question that was tripping me up. Do I need to be in a calorie supply with high protein or can my body use the fat for fuel and I just need the high protein?
>>77058005What type of arm injury?
>>77058778plain water isn't so good for fasting. you need to drink electrolytes or make your own electrolytes drink.>>77058794that's recomp. it's doable. especially for those who have never lifted before.>>77058810suremake sure to visit a doctor and do a proper cycle instead of just injecting test.
>>77058810No, you will just keep more of your muscle if you’re eating at a deficit, which I assume you are because you’re posting in /fat/
>>77058816eat at TDEE and maximize protein
>>77058816Key points of recomp, enough omega 3s to not fuck your hormones in your diet or as a supplement, 1g protein per pound body weight unless you are gigafat and have high bf, and work out. You can stay in a deficit or at maintenance really depends on how fat you are. The leaner the closer to maintenance.
How much have you lost?How much do you have remaining? How much time will it take?
>>77058820>>77058823Thank you both

>>77058827Lost 45lbsI hit my goal of 185lbs last week been debating what to do now. I might try to get a bit leaner 180 or 175. But it will probably take me like 6 months to lose those last 10lbs.

>>77058559Told you bro, glad you didn't try pushing it any further. Being able to pull off a long fast like that is truly impressive so nothing to feel bad about. Good luck with whatever's next.
>>77058827>Lost: 24lbs>Remaining: 86lbs>Time: 6-7 months if I can keep up repeat 4 day fasts, so far so good.

>>77059029>sometimes you just spontaneously danceNo one told me about this change but it's essentially true. I won't say in my case it's literally dancing but I increasingly get urges to just move around, jump and jog as I get lighter and lighter.

I ate an entire 16oz bag of beef jerky in one sitting. It had roughly 1600 calories. It happened so fast I didn't even realize I did it until my fingers hit the bottom of the bag.

Started plugging in data I've been tracking.Been weighing myself every single day since I started, wanted to make a graph to track it.Then I thought maybe I should add some points to show if I'm meeting the projection.I plugged in my current stats to losertown's calculator but I'm kinda dumb and couldn't figure out how to extrapolate backwards to when I started to make the projection on the entire graph.So instead there's a blue dot for every 7 days for the rest of the year.

Why does my lower back hurt after walking a lot? My legs could keep going all days but it's the back pain that stops me.
Made dinner tonight and tried to make it look a little presentable because I’m getting annoyed with the diet - even if I’m eating alone, at least I showed up for myselfWAGMI bros

>>77059952Lower back pain has a lot of causes, lots of things can trigger it. If it's just from walking then it's probably because of weak lower back/core muscles. Try strengthening them by doing the McGill Big 3 exercises after warming up, they helped me a lot.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_e4I-brfqshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7HLP96HVNM
Fatty Contest GetAggrippa 106.1kg Starting weight 113.5 kgNgl bros. I don't trust the scale. This would mean I have lost around 1kg in 24h. I have had a meal in between and have done some significant exercise yesterday, but the drop seems like too much.I know you're not suppose to move the scale, but die to the size of my bathroom, I don't really have a choice in the matter. I'll use my parents scale for a weekly weigh in. I want to be delighted, but it feels like its all off. Any advice?

Waist circumference has been thinning 1-1.5cm per week but its going to take months until I get shredded. Whitepill being that I've slimmed down enough to be merely fat instead of obese
https://youtu.be/a2nYv3cBbeQ?si=fX45EtCmydX7WmK8Finally under 180lbs, starting to see the very beginnings of definition on my torso. Kinda feel retarded. I could have completed this 7 times over since last summer. Workouts are uncomfortable but that's as bad as it gets. Also cooking food at home is more fun than I expected and it's cheaper.

I was 235 at my heaviest, fat and out of shape. I weighed myself this morning and I’m down to 187. Almost 50 pounds lost and absolutely nobody in my life cares or noticesKind of disheartening
>>77060512Nice almost the same as me 230 to 185. How tall are you? Also I am curious to see what your body looks like.
>>77060519I’m 5’11, I’ve noticed I’m starting to develop a bit more upper body muscle but when I look down my stomach still feels kind of fat. I typically run 2-3 times a week and lift 2-3 days, trying to get back into cross country shape, I was a big runner back in high school but that was a long time ago.

Alright, any ex-fat winners here?I got my weight down, bf 10% by the navy calculator in the OP, been there for months, slightly underweight for my height, fucking loose skin receded a bit (not enough but well, we'll see by next year ig).But how the fuck do I not panic when my weight goes up again?

>>77061326I'm stuck in the same cycleI just cut back on something, like "okay, they had snacks at work and I didn't grab one" or "I didn't go drinking with the fellas this friday because i gained a little" ultimately it's probably just natural flux, but those little bits of self control give the illusion that you're in control of it.
Weighed myself one day early and down a pound which was surprising considering my diet this week. Hopefully this bodes well for my weigh in tomorrow.
It's weird that I feel exactly as fat now at 170 as when I weighed 60lbs more than I do now. I see the same person in the mirror. Does this feeling ever go away?
Heartbreaking!Local fat man distraught as friends and family congratulate his weight loss by observing that his favorite jacket now looks oversized!
>>77061338Yeah like, I'm used to a tiny breakfast, and then either a big lunch and small dinner, or medium lunch medium dinner. If I feel like I fucked up one day, the next I just go medium lunch and small dinner, and cut on snacks.And then eventually I'm losing weight again and it's probably unhealthy because it's already low so I eat a bit more, but then well, there's weight back and I don't want to go over 20 BMI because it's apparently better for long distance running, but then after being careful for a while my weight goes back down so I let myself go a little on purpose but it goes back up and-.And like, I'm not even sure the under 20 BMI helps me, it's not like I'm about to run a marathon or become a pro or anything.

>>77061309>>77061316but at 98-99kg, with still fat to lose, how doable is it to build muscle on a deficit?
>>77061466it's doable.i've been on 1,400kcals and i'm a manelt so that's 500kcals deficit and i haven't been even hitting my protein goals. i'm averaging 60something grams of protein per day yet i noticed my biceps getting a bit bigger.my front delts can do several reps of 20lbs front raises and i could only do a couple of reps with 5lbs when i started.i can do 20lbs high pulls for 10 reps instead of the 4 i started out with.i'm not even consistent with my training. i have dumbbells at home and some times, weeks go by without me lifting at all.it has been 4 months.so if you're hitting your protein goals and training hard, i believe it's doable.
ate a bag of chips instead of half my food todaykept the same calories overall, but I was surprised I didn't get more hungry after eating a bag of chips instead of the usual large amount of chicken and veggiesmaybe my body needed the fat and carbs or somethingnot gonna make a habit out of it anywaywonder how much water weight I'll gain by tomorrow
>>77061505The fat, not so much.The carbs, possibly.Your body has an easier time turning carbs into glucose for cognitive function.
>>77061487alright thats it im signing up to a gym next payday. its gonna fuck with my tracking weight lost but its w/e ill just use a tape measure instead.

Day 4 of maintenance, 175.4
I hate that I waited so late in my life to work towards getting in shape. Ever since getting a trainer and starting the gym last year I've become kind of autistically obsessed with it. All I do these days is research fitness science, I look up different types of movements to try, get real nerdy with form, try to come up with different routines.I feel like if I were younger I would have tried to get a career in fitness training instead of some life sucking desk job working IT. Oh well.

>>77061710i weigh 185 :^)
>>77061726Doesn't that make your BMI 30
>>77061734yeah. i'm telling you if i weighed 175 i'd have 28 BMI so you're a fatty at 175 because everyone is as tall as me.

Last two weeks of the cut haven't been very successful, I've fluctuated up and down by 4 lbs while my waist hasn't shrunk.I never thought this would happen to me, I thought it was just a lie that fatties told themselves to feel better about not actually eating in a deficit
>>77061466>how doable is it to build muscle on a deficit?Extremely possible.
>>77061451social eating is much worse
>>77061466>how doable is it to build muscle on a deficit?you can unless you're a late intermediate/advanced lifter with a couple years under your beltjust have to pay attention to your protein intake

>>77061966If you aren't consistent with salt and water intake both in amounts and time of day, and you don't weigh yourself at the same time everyday, then fluctuations like that are possible
>>77061966You could just be full of poop and retaining water. I would space out your weighings. And of course stick to first thing in the morning before you put anything in your body and after you void yourself
>>77061978I drink shitloads of water, enough to piss clear every hour. But I do tend to weigh myself at random times... I guess not knowing the science, it seems like a huge fluctuation. Thanks though I'll stop weighing myself at random times. 7am after the morning shit

At 140kg from starting 195kg. One would think I would be happy, but today I woke up thinking about her. All I think about is her. But 41 days since no contact.Friend told me the other day part of our friendgroup hung out and he said the phrase I like to say and she said:"It's like I am listening to the *my name*." That night was first night in the past 2-3 months that I went to sleep happy. Wish I never got fat, wish I never met her...
>>77062861Ahh, fren, losing weight for a women fades and you eventually start doing it for yourself. If your friends are hanging with her, then you may want to drop them and go full cocoon mode. It hurts, it sucks, but the struggle will only make you stronger. Use the pain and anger to your advantage, but understand it willpass one day. Stay strong.
>>77062861>One would think I would be happy, but today I woke up thinking about her. All I think about is her. But 41 days since no contact.stop being such a pussy, imagine feeling bad because of a woman lmao. women are retarded.
>>77062868Idk mate, she is amazing. She was literally gift from the God that saved me from killing myself, helped with uni, motivated me to lose weight, etc. I would drop them, but, we never even dated officially and they don't know. It was one of those retarded situationship things and I have never told anyone anything. I was/am very insecure. We were friends for a few months.Told her I don't like her then that I do (to which she said she likes me), then that this is bad idea, then that I want to try... In the end she told me that I am not the guy she thought I was, that I ruin her emotions, that she is not a toy, that she wishes she could give me an answer... All bs stuff. Told her I said what I have to, I won't push anything. She underwent surgery I didn't even send her a message wishing good luck or speedy recovery. So yeah, they are not at fault.Thanks for support though, I appreciate it. >>77062877Yeah G, I hate all women (including my mother), I hate this one in particular

>>77063284>>77061966Weight every day is ideal so you can see trends you just have to be aware what affects weight on the scale and not freak out.-eating more carbs than usual (water weight from glycogen)-eating more salt than usual (water weight from retention)-working out in a new or different way (water weight from inflammation)-eating more insoluble fiber than usual (stool weight)-eating at a different time than usual the day before (stool weight)-weighing at a different time than usualThere might be more let me know if you guys think something else needs to be added.
>>77062622>filename
>>77063302Two weigh ins 24 hours apart are NOT indicative of a trend. There is zero point to weighing in every day in terms of analysis. To help maintain routine, sure, but the data itself has zero (0) value. And because most people are fucking retarded, the data has negative value because people panic like the goddamn retards they are.

>>77063970idk how the first one works but i feel they are pretty similar.i don't think you need to go that far if your goal isn't gym maxxing. adjustable dumbbells, an adjustable bench, a pull bar and some resistance bands are enough imo.

>>77064007very nice>A few captains snatched up the choicest items and added their voices to the swelling chant. But no sooner had the cry begun to build than a woman’s voice cut through it. “Erik!” Men moved aside to let her through. With one foot on the lowest step, she said, “Erik, stand up.”> A hush fell. The wind blew, waves broke against the shore, men murmured in each other’s ears. Erik Ironmaker stared down at Asha Greyjoy. “Girl. Thrice-damned girl. What did you say?”> “Stand up, Erik,” she called. “Stand up and I’ll shout your name with all the rest. Stand up and I’ll be the first to follow you. You want a crown, aye. Stand up and take it.”> Elsewhere in the press, the Crow’s Eye laughed. Erik glared at him. The big man’s hands closed tight around the arms of his driftwood throne. His face went red, then purple. His arms trembled with effort. Aeron could see a thick blue vein pulsing in his neck as he struggled to rise. For a moment it seemed as though he might do it, but the breath went out of him all at once, and he groaned and sank back onto his cushion. Euron laughed all the louder. The big man hung his head and grew old, all in the blink of an eye. His grandsons carried him back down the hill.
