>>77122799Weight on the scale goes down but my gut and man tits won’t shrink
Bros, is it easier to drop bf % the lower you go?At some point, I had 38% bf @ 110 kgs, meaning that over 41 kgs of my body mass was fat. I dropped it to 30% @ 94 kg so far, meaning that I lost 16 kgs, out of which 13.6 kgs was fat.Am I correct in suspecting that 30% is halfway between 18% and 38% – meaning that if I just do the same things again, I'm going to lose 12 percentage points of bf instead of 8? Or are these next 16 kgs going to be much harder to lose than the first 16 kgs?
>>77122817>Bros, is it easier to drop bf % the lower you go?No.

But, uh, we argue and shit but leaving or pushing back too far on any of his bullshit so he kicks me out is like complaining my steak is too juicy, that my lobster is too buttery. My dick is drained, my belly is full. This has to be better than the shelter despite everything else.
Really blows my mind that this stray comment is only the tip of the iceberg on /lgbt/. You really are the most vile creatures that crawl the face of the earth. I finally understand why God obliterated Sodom and Gomorrah.

I'm losing fat to fuck femboys in their boy pussys
Unless I'm at 12% I have back fat. I hate it I hate it I hate it. Why is it so hard to just look like a person?
I...I ate a full meal for lunch...I was supposed to save the quota for dinner... I'm sorry T^T
I'm losing fat to fit lingerie and actually look sexy enough (and be confident enough) to dominate my gym bro husband
>>77122915Post pic XP (No judgement will be made)
>>77122920(Yes it will) (Also no I'm fat and that's disgusting. I wouldn't fuck me. I cover mirrors when I'm alone and avoid looking when I'm not)
>>77122915What size lingerie are you trying to fit into?
>unironic faggot talkNever thought I would miss the cabin hot sauce fag and the anorexic chick but I would take them any day over this.
>>77122903Lol I have the same problemI always thought I had a hunchback but its actually just a massive pad of fat on my upper back

If I lose any more weight, I'm gonna need a new belt.I've only had this one for like 3 weeks.
>>77122959Same here. I'm on my last belt loop. Having to buy new pants now tooIt's ultimately a good thing, though
>>77122926I definitely wouldn't. Can't say about the others.
>be me>31>decide to try frolicking like my favourite 17-year-old looking 36-year-old>knees crack and now I'm in pain
>>77122799Been dieting, lifting, /roon/ing/biking and yoga-ing now for about 8 weeks. Not weighing myself but using clothes to track and it's working very well. Ran 8.5 miles on saturday and biked 27 on sunday. VO2max is still shit, but considerably less shit than it was in December. WAGMI

Man I wish I could have a cold beer right now
Have slept like shit for the past 4 days and not sure why, can this be related to dieting?
>>77123128>can this be related to dieting?High probability if your diet has changed.
>>77123128How do you wake up? Mind alert but body like stone? If yes then that's cortisol creepingin, likely because you went above your fat oxidation threshold. I suggest adding more carbs to all your meals.
>>77122935Less about clothing size, more about measurements. A 23" waist would be a dream... 26" chest (under the udders) would also be great. Hip ehhh I mean I'm very off and in about because he like most men love big round ass and hips so if I can maintain his 10" greater than waist I'm happy. I know I won't be perfect, but I can't let the saggy skin keep me this way. I'm pudgy and my arms double in girth if pressed against my sides. I feel my torso is barrel shaped. My face is round not angled. I wanna look like a hot 20yo that is doing damn near constant cardio and gives other women eating disorders just by existing. My dream would be to look like picrel, I know I can't but fuck I need to at least try my best. Build up my credit so I can get skin tightening shit done.
>>77122799Damn, she hit the quackpot!
>>77123140Been dieting for non-stop for 8 weeks now, same diet throughout of high protein.>>77123152I'm on a carb-free diet, but I eat like 100g of carbs 2 times a week. I do wake up alert but that's normal for me.
>>77123173>200g carbs/weekThe only kind of person who can get away with this is a 60 kg homebound streamer who does less than 8k steps/day and eats 1500 kcal.Tell me anon how tall and how active are you?
Started last year at 108kg. Now at 77kg, mostly by fasting 2 days a week.This month I'm going all in and fasting 4 days a week, with 1 day of eating half of my daily calories. 10K steps each day as well.At 179cm, my prediction is to hit 70kg at the end of the month.My goal is 60kg. We're all gonna make it, bros.
>>77123154Keto and intermittent fasting, and tone your muscles with resistence training, and lots of incidental & recreational walking.With hard work and consistency, any average man can become a beautiful woman.
>>77123184You're making an even bigger blunder than I did.You're just dehydrating yourself just to hit a magic number. 77 kg at 179cm is already good. Start eating carbs, pump iron and get plumpy. You already made it.
Did anyone have any success with buying reta from AliExpress shadow links?
>>77123192Except I can't change my low hips and wide rib cage, I can't change my skin quality without scars or regular touch ups, I have my dream poster girl and I'm gonna do my best but I know I'll never be her. Best I ever achieved was 28" chest 24" waist and 34" hip. And it was hard to maintain. In fact, I didn't. And I still had fat on my ribs that looked like I had 4 tits. I still had hip dips. My face was still leaning towards round. I had this weird loose skin as the top of my thighs so I never got that full thigh gap. I can try harder this time to get there and stay there and hopefully go beyond.
>>77123180175cm 96kg, I do full body workouts 2x a week.I'm gonna track my water intake for a few days and see if that improves it, otherwise I'll do a week on maintenance.
I have been losing weight, but what upsets me is that is mostly because I got Community College, meaning I skip lunch and go directly to dinner.I am exercising again at least once a week, but it makes me worried by the time I am out, I will regain all the weight...hell I was on my way to 78 and today I am 80 after a week of no college.
Best lifts to help with loose skin under arms? if that's even possible
>>77123262All you can do is give it time and build arms. Mostly tricep. >>77123201I WISH I could trust random vials and just inject myself
>>77123211I still think you're not eating enough carbs. But I guess we'll see how it works out for you.
>>77123258Eat whole healthy foods and avoid junk, you'll be good.
>lose 150lbs>still an autistic loser who can't talk to women>but now I also have horrific loose skinGreat......
>>77122959Just use a hole puncher until your size is is going to stay more consistent
>>77122959>>77122974just get more holes punched in wtf are you saying
>>77123351Wrong priorities in life, go back to being a waddling fatass

I have lost 80 lbs in 6 months (300->220). I'm tired and hangry all the time. can't wait to hit goal weight and add rice back into my diet.
My life sucks eternally and junk food is the only thing that gives me release. What do? My life isn't gonna get any better
>>77123351I got the loose skin too. it makes me sad. I feel like a lovecraftian horror but at least i look hot with clothes on :/ what can be done bros?
>>77123371loose skin surgerytattoossteroids
>>77123368idk save the money and spend it on a trip to thailand
>>77122817Losing 15 lbs at 220 lbs will have you lose less % of body fat than losing 15 lbs at 185 lbs because it's a percentage of your total weight.This doesn't mean losing 15 lbs at 185 will be easier. In fact it could possibly be harder because your TDEE goes down as your weight goes lower.
>>77123352>>77123358If it's a nice belt that you like, go to the trouble of doing a good job on the holes. Get a cheap tool for it and do it right - don't just jab a screwdriver through it.
>>77123404NTA, but I see where he's coming from. 1lb is less of 300 than it is of 200, so if he can maintain the deficit steadily than the individual pounds count for more as he goes.But yeah, harder and harder to maintain the deficit the closer you get.
I want to fill up the rest of my budget with candy today.
>>77122817Mechanistically not, behaviorally, yes
>>77122951>>77122955>>77122877It's one guy who frequents these generals, who posts these elongated made-up stories about acting degenerate with MTF or FTM's. The stories are ridiculous and change every time.
>>77123523Ok
>>77123424Even if it’s a nice belt you like the goal is to ultimately never be able to use it again
I noticed that I can stave off my hunger for a while by just taking a sip of tobascoIt's only 30mg of sodium too, not bad
>>77123550>tobascothat's shit's just vinegar and pepper juice. my stomach would refuse further entry as well if I just drank it.
I've setup a reminder to stand up and march in place for 10 minutes every hour while I'm in the officeI get roughly 1100 "steps" on my watch every time I do this, and I'm in the office for 9 hours usually, so hopefully I just found a hack to burn some extra calories

>>77123194I drink a load of water and always hit sodium goals. At 179cm/77kg, I still look quite fat. March and April are gonna be months of extreme dieting for me (800cal/d) and 10K steps every day. That will allow me to look thin by May 5st. That's when I should start to eat well again, with a focus on gaining lean mass.

460lb goutfag reporting in. For the first time in as long as I can remember I managed a grocery trip without buying anything I shouldn't. Got some tart cherry juice because that is supposed to help with the gout, I'm sipping on a glass of a bit of it mixed with some water now. Pictured is what I'm going to eat for the rest of the week. I know you can make up fancy dressings with oil and basalmic and shit but I'm just not ready for that yet wanted something simpler that I'm used to. So I had an idea, not in the picture but I bought a tub of 1% lowfat cottage cheese. I blended it up until it was smooth and I'm going to mix it with packets of ranch seasoning mix to make a sort of healthy dressing. One half cup is only 80 calories and I figure that should be enough for a big salad. I've been mostly eating hamburger and sausage and pasta and rice before this so I'm hoping a week of salads and cherry juice will make me feel better and clear some of the brain fog. Hope it works out I'll report back with results.
>>77124197the bf% approximations are widely offpersonally I already use an excel sheet for my lifts, so I just put my body weight next to it

Going to a dinner tomorrow where the expectation is ordering starters, a main and a starchy side (rice/noodles). I'm prepared to get a normal main, how do I get out of ordering the side of carbs without looking like a weirdo?No, discussing this with other diners is not an option, and they will definitely comment on it.|

>>77124433Keto is very mainstream
>>77124448First of all, calm down, allcaps helps no one. Second, just stop putting food in your mouth once you hit 1500 calories. You can't eat by accident.

God fucking dammit the family got me sick, can't believe I'm going to probably have to miss the gym for a weekFfs
>>77124770body weight in your room whaleo
>>77124773Fuck that if you’re sick just rest & recover as fast as possible, don’t do some half assed exercises and stay sicker longer
I give up. I tried getting down from 82 kg to 75 kg but then I gained everything back to 81 kg. I noticed that the more I try the more I drink and I don’t want to die of cirrhosis. It’s just not for me anymore. I’m 35 and it just doesn’t work as easy as it was when I was 25 and managed to lose 20 kg within a year
How the FUCK some of you keep a deficit of 1000kcal? I eat at this deficit for a few days and I feel like killing myself or someone, I can barely keep it together at 500.Is this a curse? Am I just a retard with zero self control? There's no way this is normal.
>>77124916It’s easier when you are like 20. It gets harder as you age.
>>77124877>>77124945You're a little faggot lol. It takes nothing to just not eat, but you manage to make a six pack magically appear in your fridge every 48 hours.
Fellas, is it possible to eat too little? My daily caloric intake has become like 1000-1200 and people have told me that eating so little will cause me to gain weight. For reference, I'm like 85kg and 5'9" or so, and I go for runs regularly and don't drink alcohol. It's not that I set my calories to 1200 or whatever, it's just what I end up eating naturally when I plan out my meals (breakfast, morning snack, lunch, protein powder and dinner). Generally I'll have shredded chicken for breakfast (100kcal), fruit for a mid-morning snack (100kcal), meat and vegetables for lunch (400-500kcal), a protein powder/drink in the afternoon (150kcal) and dinner will normally be something like eggs, sometimes with a piece of bread (250kcal). It's hard for me to find the motivation to eat more.
>>77124789Exercise makes you recover faster but of course you want to believe the opposite so you can excuse yourself which is why you had to announce it to everyone here
>>77124789>>77124964I think you're right, from what I understand if you're well enough to do something, then its better to do that something than it is to do nothing. Don't push yourself when you're sick, but something light, like half an hour of walking, or doing some warm-up sets is better than sitting on your ass.Depends on how sick you are though. If you're like violently vomiting and shitting your brains out its probably better to not do anything besides rest and drink lots of fluids.
>>77124958>and people have told me that eating so little will cause me to gain weightpeople are retarded and in this case, wrong
>>77124958>people have told me that eating so little will cause me to gain weightThat is physically impossible. Whoever told you that is probably fat and has absolutely no idea what they're talking about. It would literally break the laws of thermodynamicsA car doesnt magically gain more weight in the form of gas if its not fueled. The body doesnt magically gain more weight in fat if its not being fueled (with calories)
>>77124974>>77124975See, I'm skeptical too, but multiple have said that whole "you will enter starvation mode and your body will convert everything it can into fat for later use while using the bare minimum to power your organs" spiel. So, eating like this I should be good and lose weight and not just turn into a blob?
>>77124998Oh god, the old "starvation mode" line? Fat retards say that to rationalize their overeating. It is a myth and traight up doesnt exist at allYou'll lose weight as long as you are eating less calories than you burn. No exceptionsIf you are skeptical try it yourself. Plug your stats in here https://tdeecalculator.net/ to see how many calories you burn in a day. That's called your TDEE (total daily energy expenditure). Then, eat less than that every day. I guarantee you will lose weight over timeConversely, eat more than that, and I guarantee you'll gain weight over time. Its really that simple
>>77125017>Oh god, the old "starvation mode" line? Fat retards say that to rationalize their overeating. It is a myth and traight up doesnt exist at allNone of the people who were warning me were fat. In the past, a GP told me, and recently my GP implied it as well. Neither GP was fat.>If you are skeptical try it yourself. Plug your stats in here https://tdeecalculator.net/ to see how many calories you burn in a day. That's called your TDEE (total daily energy expenditure). Then, eat less than that every day. I guarantee you will lose weight over timeI know, I know. I have lost weight before by eating less, but every time I do it, people come rushing to tell me that eating so little (under 1500 per day) will just cause my metabolism to slow down and my body to give up. My recommended daily caloric intake is like 2200-2500 or so.
Is it normal to not feel sore after lifting and cardio anymore? I’m working out past the point where I’m hyperventilating and sweating buckets but my body never feels sore.
>>77125021Your gps are referring to extreme adaptive thermogenesis. As you lose weight, you burn less calories, your body tries to preserve the fat it has, and your metabolism naturally slows down. This is normal, and nothing to worry aboutNow, if you don't have fat to burn, your body will begin to get calories from other things, like muscle and organ tissue. This is VERY EXTREME and you would have to be malnourished to get to that point. Youd look like a jew in auschwitz, and would have basically no fat on you. But you'd naturally crave calories, eat more, and the problem would fix itself, so long as you don't have an eating disorder. and truth be told, its hard to get to that point with such easy access to calories these daysSo basically, if you're a reasonable weight, do what feels natural. If youre too fat, eat less, and if youre too underweight, eat more. Keep it simple
>>77125045>So basically, if you're a reasonable weight, do what feels natural. If youre too fat, eat less, and if youre too underweight, eat more. Keep it simpleAlright, well, I feel like I have already lost some fat in the few weeks I have been doing this, so if I keep it up for like 3-5 months I should be at my goal weight.
>>77125047That's good anon, keep it up. I hope you reach your goals
>>77125059I do, too. I drink way too much black coffee. Sometimes I put a tiny bit of honey in it, but mostly it's black. The real issue is not drinking, because man, do I love getting absolutely plastered, but I have already gone without booze for months, losing weight just seemed like the next logical step.
>>77124494Just so you know, you can buy tart cherry supplements that contain the natural compounds that help gout. It'll save you a bunch of sugar and calories and it won't be unpleasant in taste. Its not expensive at all and you get way more of the active compounds for your money.
>>77125031You've reached a new point of homeostasis where your muscles are built effectively to handle the workouts and the weights that you are doing. If you increase the weight or change up your workout, you will feel sore again.
>>77123404Thinking of swimming once a week during one of the rest days on top of daily walks and 5 days of gym , shouldn't fuck up my recovery despite being on the cut right?

>>77124916I suggest you switch to High Energy Flux.First run your numbers to figure out your fat oxidation rate and then make a diet/exercise around it. The way I do it is I eat approx 3.3k calories and burn 4k.
What to do, other than stop drinking 1.5lt of soda a day since I can't
>>77125161>179cm 100kg>24.1% bf34.1% maybe lmao

>>77125161at the very least switch to 0kc soda but the real answer is start counting ALL your calories
>>77125194Nah, I have measurements fairly close to that and get 25% from Navy method.My bicep is 16.75", forearm 13.5", chest 44.75", thigh 27.5", calf 17.5". Former high school athlete build in my case; probably the same for him. Entirely possible without gear.

Is there anything I can do for a little skin pouch on my lower abdomen? Went from 315 to 210 lbs (the old fashioned way pre-ozempic) and have a little skin flap. It’s been 4 years and hasn’t gone away, but it’s not bad enough to justify surgery.

How do you stick to your diet during a hangover? I genuinely have no desire for decent food and I have to force myself to slowly eat it, but I simultaneously crave simple carbs.

>>77125675>hangoverAlcohol is dead calories anon, switch to cocaine
>>77125677It's weird because usually I can't be hungry for one type of food and not the other. I might prefer junk food, but any food is welcome. After I drink I only want simple carbs

>>77124958the body works in mysterious ways.those faggots telling you it's "physically impossible" are retards who don't take into account that the basal metabolic rate isn't a fixed value but increases and decreases depending on how much people eat and other factors we don't know about.that out of the way, protein sparing modified fasting have been used by a bunch of anons and it worked for them.it seems the key point is reducing insulin to not lower the basal metabolic rate too much and you're eating meat and veggies so you should be good. eat low calories as long as it works for you. always do what works for you and find what works for you by experimenting.
>>77126030good lord I thought i was just enjoying a breadless Elvis sandwich, i had no idea it was such a cheat code

>>77125031either start increasing the weight, reduce down time between sets or try drop sets. the lynchpin of lifting "to 12 reps" is the 12th rep must be the final rep you are able to do. if you can do a 13th rep, you'll need to increase the weight.as for cardio, try increasing the intensity. if you're running, pick up the pace. if you're on an incline, increase the angle. you get the point.

If it wasn't for the 1lt of water I drink the days I workout, my kidneys would be so done by now. I also eat candies, chocolates and shit like that>>77125241>start counting ALL your caloriesAre those android apps that take pictures of your food to calc the calories any good?
>>77126185Zero sugar soda, it works.
>>77126185>food picture appsI wouldn't. I've had way better luck than some anons using AI to count calories but that's with measuring weights. Estimating weights from photos is still pretty janky and imprecise.
>>77126185There's really no need for the average person to count calories. It makes a person obsess over every single thing they are eating every day, the mental strain of that is harder than the diet itself. And any time there's a discrepancy in expected weight loss from your calorie counting, it just demotivates the person even more. The same principle applies to weighing yourself every single day, totally unnecessary and counter productive.
>>77126281This genuinely sounds like you're too mentally weak to manage basic daily tasks. Do you avoid looking at your bank account too, because money might stress you out?
>>77126281>There's really no need for the average person to count calories.Wrong, its something the average person needs to know. They dont need to know it to the last digit, but at least a rough estimate if they eat below, at maintenance or above maintenance once they are average weight. And its way more important for fat people to know this shit, because they will need to know it once they reached their goal
>>77126281great advice if you're looking to fail your diet and never lose weight
>>77126302I say that 8 weeks into my weight loss losing over 2 pounds on average every week. It's not hard to lose weight, it's not hard to track when you are eating too much and getting heavier with weekly weigh ins, it's not hard to compensate by just eating less. What the other poster said about massive fatasses with zero concept of portion sizes and calories is fair enough, but the average guy should know better. Knowing you ate 1800 calories instead of your 1600 daily goal or whatever is not going to help you, just like estimating you've only eaten 1300 calories so far so you have enough room for a dessert doesn't help either. Just eat less.
>>77126315Just eat less of what?People dont eat the same static meals everyday retardThats why we have calories, so you know that eating less bacon is much better than eating less broccoli
My first salad, estimate about 700-800 calories. The blended cottage cheese dressing was just alright, even though I blended it a ton it still has a bit of a grainy texture. I think I liked using greek yogurt better instead. Still it was tasty enough, hopefully this will help me feel better after a few days.
>>77126315>I lost 16 pounds!!Is this supposed to be impressive? Over half of that is probably the starting woosh water weight. Sounds like your diet is stalling because you're scared of tracking it.
SGLT2i are like a cheat code in combination with reta. Reta makes the liver release sugar and SGLT2i make the kidneys just piss it straight out. Need to eat sufficient high amounts of carbs tho to avoid ketoacidosis.
>>77126320>equating bacon to broccoli>>77126325>16lbs water weight after 2 monthsYou see, both of these posts are deranged. Normal people with a fitness mindset like the rest of this board don't think like this.
>>77126332You're wrong because you're terminally online but 99% of people are absolutely braindead and dont understand anything about anything outside of their wagie fieldsThey are literally too stupid to understand that the sauce they're putting on their salad has 500 calories
>>77126335>They are literally too stupid to understand that the sauce they're putting on their salad has 500 caloriesI don't know if too stupid is the right word but that's very true. For me it was just that I was taught as a child that condiments are free calories so I just never thought about it. I assume many people were never told that they could have significant calories in them and saw no reason to do further research.
>>77126350>>77126335This is just an extreme example, then theres all the fine differences Last week I was eating 15+ meals of 100 of different ingredients, and gained weightNow I decide to 'eat less' meaning what? I dont remember what I ate and how much, so I just approximate it? This is a recipe for absolute giga failure when you can just use a model that ACTUALLY worksCount calories
>>77126362>when you can just use a model that ACTUALLY worksIt doesn't work in the real world. What works are GLP1.
>>77126332You're on an ineffective diet that you're demanding is the only right way to lose weight despite the fact you're only two months in and already failing. Your mindset is a pathological fear of scales and numbers and accountability and has nothing to do with fitness.
>>77126374Yeah those work too, but people have lost weight before glp1s retardoboy
>>77126374>It doesn't work in the real worldIt works for people who, unlike you, have the mental fortitude to read a three digit number once a day and add a four digit number. I'm down over 40 pounds, what's your excuse fatty?

I've been eating one hotdog as a meal from a restaurant after working out for the past few days. I think I've made this diet enjoyable now. I eat a light breakfast of yogurt or a smoothie. Then some cashews. Then a hotdog which is like 500-700 calories if it has chili and cheese, for my final meal. I toppings like peppers and onions are zero calories so the only issue is the bread but Im not keto. Thoughts?

After two months of working out, I realize, I don't actually like pushing weights, but I love the feeling of my muscles feeling tight within my skin and the feeling of my muscles being sore while in bed. Can't get enough of that shit.
>>77126410sticking to keto is very hard
Been eating healthy since start of January, very few carbs, cooking at home. went out for dinner at a restaurant tonight and immediately started shitting my guts out. Is this because my body has adapted and isn't used to restaurant food or do I have food poisoning?
I never want to hate eggs like I did while doing ketoEggs are too delicious to hate

>>77126968Pasta wants to enter my body, I can't help it.
>>77126658whatever works for you is good
>>77126968how to do it right?
>>77126919Maybe 8 months isn’t that long but I’ve never felt the urge to eat sugar or bread since I started . If anything I have more trouble staying under my TDEE because I can eat two lbs of steaks or ground beef like it’s nothing.
>>77126658Are you hitting your protein? Yogurt and cashews seem good, but hotdogs, I don't think they have that much protein in them.
>>77125047>I feel like I haveBuy a scale and weigh yourself rather than going on feelings. Then you can know, for a fact, if youre losing weight or not and can adjust your approach accordingly.Bonus points if you also count your calories at the same time so you'll know exactly where you went right and wrong.
>>77126185>Most of the fat is in my legs and some in my belly which I have no idea how to get rid ofLeg fat followed by lower ab fat is the last to go for men, you just gotta lose more weight simple as.
Ugh, I'm so fat.The scale has ratcheted right up to 110, and doesn't seem to want to go down.
Are some fat guys just naturally handsome and it was hidden beneath their fat?I've seen some guys I know start off pretty heavy (like 360+) and start looking handsome by the time they get to 300.
i went from 385lbs to 250lbs. regained 20 after i got laid off my job. every time i push down my weight i end up gorging absurd amounts of food. i think a stable job was the only thing holding my diet together.
>weight plateaued for weeks>also havent shat for ~3 to 4 daysam scared, im eating around 25 grams of fiber (primarily soluble from lentils, and vegs) but nothing's happening, i dont even feel the urge or sensation needed to shit, is it because im doing tmadI hope there isnt a behemoth within my gut thats gonna tear my ass apart when i finally shit, but id also like to finally lose a couple hundred grams as well and break the plateau, fuark
>>771271254got to mention its tmad on 1700 kcals, im a 174 bloke but surely 1700 isnt low enough for me to not shit at least thrice a week

>>77127147I’ve lost 75 pounds and am finally below 350 for the first time in a decade.I’m still huge but it has been genuinely surprising to me that women in public have started complimenting me.

>>77127597>>77127597>>77127597>>77127597
>>77126323Looks delicious, but you're doing salads wrong if its 800 calories and "estimating", unless that's your entire meal.
>>77127125I would get a laxative before it becomes another day that you haven't gotten relief. The longer you're constipated, the harder it is to finally push it out because one of the purposes of your intestines is to absorb water and form a coherent and solid mass, so it gets drier and harder..
>>77125734I would recommend Chicken or beef bone broth, ground beef just cooked in a frying pan by itself (or with a bit of olive oil), leafy green vegetables like sprouts, lettuce, etc will be fine as well. Also don't eat 2000 cals straight away but step up, probably 1000 first day spread out across a few meals over several hours (gives your body time to clearly reject the food if you eat something you shouldn't), 2000 second day, then third day 2000 cals + try introduce some other non keto foods, then if that's fine your body will probably be ok with whatever.I did a 30 day water fast and had ground beef + beef bone broth as above (although only ~450cal) on first refeed day and my stomach was fine. Sprouts/leafy greens on third or so but I think would have been fine first day as well, but naturally I was cautious so only had keto food initially.
