>tfw manlet and even super skinny i still look fat
Jaxon King
height and weight?
Anthony Jackson
5'4" and currently 123 lbs even when I was 110 I was still kinda stocky looking, which I know 110 lbs isn't that skinny but idk how much benefit I could've gotten, it was all bone and short stubby legs
Lincoln Perry
ouch man, try 100 pounds and if that doesn't work just accept your fate
Lucas Peterson
reminder that if you are underage dont do any retarded dieting or you will stunt your growth
Adam Martinez
had to stop drinking coffee due to sleep issues, gained some weight as a result and am now drinking tea instead (both as appetite suppression and for flavor) but it just doesn't have the same effect. any recommended drinks?
>21 years old >height: 183 cm >HW: 97kg >CW: 84kg >GW: somewhere around 50-60kg maybe? >preferred method: dieting, working out (gonna start soon, I promise) >aesthetic: I just want to become cute Will I ever be able to enter femboy mode? I went from left to right in 3 months, surely another year should do it? My biggest fear is ending up looking like a skinnyfat abomination because I evidently have a very wide waist and hips. Also I think my face looks ok in the mirror, but every time I take a photograph of myself I want to vomit.
Daily reminder that no one here will make it. Eat your mcdonalds, piggy,
Oliver Gutierrez
You can do it, you just need discipline. I'm living your fear of being skinnyfat. I was 180 and now I'm 145. Just a little more dieting and fasting and I'm sure we'll get there. Fitting into a medium shirt or a size 30 pants feels so fucking good my man. You can do it.
Isaac Collins
that sounds exactly like me rn, keep dieting and you'll all make it
Levi Stewart

Skins (tv series), Cassie has an eating disorder and Effy is thin too. Plus it's comfy.
Do you guys have cheat days or times where you just over indulge here and there? Whenever I come home from Uni I binge on fruits, sweet potatoes and cereal (not necessarily all at once but those are what I pick from) on the first night. I end up taking monster shits the next morning.
Thomas Rodriguez
Living at home, I had to, otherwise I'd eventually end up binge eating wayyy over my TDEE, and that's way worse than just eating maintenance every 3-4 days. It's so much easier to lose weight and maintain once you're there when you have total control over what's lying around to be eaten.
Mason Sanders
i used to do that as well, what helps is the day before eat maintainence instead of whatever your target is, makes you enough less of a binge monster that imo it's a net positive
I came home drunk last night and had the munchies. The kitchen had an abundance of fatty and carb-loaded and sweet things to eat, and I could've totally gone for white- and milk chocolate and sweetened chai tea with cream, but drunk me halved a tomato and sprinkled it with salt and oregano, halved an apple and cut it into slices and sprinkled them with cinnamon sugar, grabbed a couple of raw carrots, and arranged it on a plate and brought it with me along with a pack of chewing gum in case I couldn't resist going out for seconds. I'm loving drunk me right now.
just run and fast. as long as you arent doing squats, muscle gain will be negligible.
Parker Torres
Run, endurance runs are great for building up endurable, but not big muscles. Avoid heavy squats and deadlifts if you don't want huge legs.. oh wait, no one on this board lifts, you're gonna be alright senpai. Also eat at a caloric deficit. This is the only way to lose weight. Go on a fast for a few days, or start doing intermittent fasting.
Xavier Perry
thank you very much
Caleb Miller
I've just been eating small portions without counting calories. After a while people started commenting on my weight and when I got home from school yesterday my family freaked out. I finally weighed myself this morning and somehow I'm 20lbs below my goal weight and technically underweight now even though I still see a fat piece of shit when I look in the mirror. I'm not sure what to do now. Should I start eating at my TDEE or keep going?
Colton Martin
Wtf I just realized that my dog outweighs me now.
Joshua Rodriguez
H-how much do you weigh? What's your height?
Brandon Sanders
Probably fat by thinspo standards but I'm 5'7" and 106lbs.
Nathaniel Torres
that's very thin, even by thinspo standards.
Jackson Sanchez
That's very fucking thin. I weigh 172 lbs at 5'9 and 18% bodyfat and even I consider myself to scrawny, when I probably have to cut by now since I'm a fat fuck, all things considered.
Landon Morris
Huh, that's basically my stats.
The overweight/normal weight/underweight categories are rough guidelines.
Are you male or female? If you're male and not Asian it's too low, might be bad even if you're Asian. If you're female and have a light frame it's probably an okay weight. As I said I'm the same as you (108 lbs anyway) and look normal-skinny. My doctor is fine with it as long as I eat and don't lose more. But I have a tiny frame. I know girls my height who have ~1.3 times broader shoulders than me Some other signs of being small-framed is if the circumference of your writs is small, and your ribs can easily be pushed in several cm's.
If you're below your goal weight, not especially small framed, and still think you look fat it might be a sign that you're not seeing yourself right though. It's a known problem for anorexics, and assuming your goal is to look good and not drive yourself mad you want to avoid this. It's something you can test by drawing what you think is the correct size of your body, whole or in parts, and then compare by putting that body (part) over your drawing and drawing the real outline. That way you'll get an idea of how your perception is compared to reality.
>Should I start eating at my TDEE or keep going? Depends on the answers above but eating TDEE (possibly more) and trying to build some muscle is probably a good idea anyway. People look better if they're a bit lean, and it's good for you.
I'm a non-asian male. I'm doing this to look good, never really ate unhealthy just ate too much. I do have tiny bitch wrists. I'm probably just small framed, I mean I am a manlet after all. I'm just going to try to ignore my dad. Keep restricting and see if I will ever "look good".
Hm, sounds like you have a problem, but I'm sure you already know that.
Ian Bell
I want to cut my calf muscles out
Hudson Garcia
Seek mental help.
Jaxson Kelly
they're fucking huge dude I need to stop running or something Been trying to get into bicycling but it's been so snowy and icy near me that I feel unsafe on the roads
Levi Hernandez
You should say this on Veeky Forums, it's a common joke that calves are the hardest place to gain mass.
Isaiah Morris
tfw god tier genetics for muscle growth but shit tier for height so im basically screwed
Jonathan Lewis
the fuck? i'm 5'9 almost 10 and I'm 149, I feel obese every time I look in the mirror, the fat distribution on my body goes straight to my stomach and chest, my legs are carved since I bike a lot so are my traps/shoulders and upper arms. Getting my fat percentage checked in a couple of days cause I'm almost sure I'm hitting skinnyfat terrriotory
Perfect nipple is size is very under appreciated, personally.
Oliver Johnson
Would it be a bad idea to limit myself to one meal per day in an attempt to lose weight?
Jonathan Reyes
>Would it be a bad idea to limit myself to one meal per day in an attempt to lose weight? Nope. A lot of people do it with great success It's very reasonable. and effective if you do it right.Google OMAD
Matthew Thompson
Not at all. I did that every other day and it worked really well for me. Look up intermittent fasting.
Alexander Rodriguez
omad is so so so good! you should try it!
Wyatt Johnson
The hunger suppression amphetamines bring is great; No urge to binge and finally my body agrees with me that now is not the time for eating.
Christopher Morgan
I know right? Just got diagnosed with add, and because of the meds suddenly my life just... works. I don’t even have to obsess over counting calories
Jacob Green
should i get back on adderall and risk making my depression worse? Im in a pretty good headspace right now just general anxiety but overall im doing decent. a lot of my sadness comes from gaining weight. i've been fluctuating a lot. I was at my goal weight at the end of October and gained it all back. I was working full time doing labor intensive work so it was easy to starve and exercise. Now i'm back in school and struggling with eating and being sedentary.
pants fit ok, its obvious that they are low qual cause they have bagged out alot around the knee. Also, you dont need to iron chinos really, the wrinkles are due to poor thin and crinkle-y material
Leo Thomas
gonna do a prolonged fast lads (3-7 days ill see how it goes), wish me luck
Luke Hill
Good luck user! I'll join you later today!
Sebastian Taylor
hey, goodluck to you too!
Lucas Parker
are your thighs fat or muscular? if muscular, wear tighter pants. if you're fat just keep losing weight and they'll go away eventually, you cant spot reduce.
It won't kill you unless you have some heart problems Helps to kill appetite but will power is even better
Joseph Walker
Opinions? I don't understand your post, its not like you invented something new and need to hear an opinion about it. Do some research yourself
Tyler Garcia
i moved back home and commute to school now and my mom always buys junk food like chips and ramen and chinese takeout. she and my brothers have terrible eating habits. i have to buy my own veggies and tofu but im getting so broke...
John Nelson
Is it possible to be lean and fem at the same time? Post body inspo.
Dylan Rogers
Like this but with more muscle? Probably, it's mostly about face and skin anyways
Wyatt Ward
Yeah, like that but not skelly mode lol.
Kevin Harris
Be pale, act feminine, get a right haircut and you can pull it off, if you're a weeb look at the characters from Free! or something for inspo
Mason Jones
I'm Asian so it's a little harder for me to get pale.
How to be pale but not look sickly? I'm p pale already but i think i just look sickly
Lucas Murphy
Most of my weight is muscle mass, around 60 kg of all my total mass is muscle, that may be a reason why I don't feel fat. Then again I'm also muscle dysmorphic which is why I feel scrawny. I'm at around 17% bodyfat.
Josiah Murphy
I really like green tea, it has caffeine, tastes like grass tho, maybe you won't likely. Red tea has more caffeine that green tea but it takes relatively stronger, coffee-like but if you're trying to decrease your caffeine intake, I wouldnt recommend. Maybe black tea + cinnamon will do it for you I also enjoy fruity teas, but if you're looking something alike coffee, this may not be your cup of tea lol
Tyler Adams
Maybe you look fine but just think its bad Im no expert but I'd say eat healthily, get all the vitamins and stuff. I heard, that carrots make your skin look more tan but not to an extreme (in an attractive way) but it could be broscience
>Preferred method of losing weight: Always been like this.
God I love muh genes
Jayden Peterson
It’s mostly having a gray tint or ‘seethrough’ look that makes you look sick, not the paleness. Take your vitamins, drink water, sleep more, wash your face daily,use moisturiser and avoid alcohol and smokes.
Nolan Jackson
well into my fast and i feel like im going to faint anytime I move. i was thinking about eating like a raisin or something small and sweet to see if it’d help. is it worth breaking the fast though?
Nathan Rogers
no. Espically sweets (carbs) will make you hungrier.
Liam Morris
Can someone recommend some Korean mukbangers besides Bangz? I hate understanding what these people are saying, it makes me realize how weird watching someone eat is.
Brandon Watson
I find the yowapeda boys thinspo more obtainable imo (save for a few gimicky characters). the show is also super motivating and makes me want to bike more.
Keep the long term in mind. You want to shift the biochemical networks in your body to effect a permanent reduction in hunger and the desire for food. This takes time, usually a long time. You need to apply steady pressure for months and years to literally change what your body wants and is. Billions and billions of cells need to adjust their expressions in response to a changed environment, often this change only happens when a cell dies and is replaced. The good news is that this is very forgiving of mistakes so long as you get back up and keep trying. Just keep applying pressure and your body will slowly change in response to that pressure. This is a sea-level change, not a bit of short-term weather. It takes a long time to come into full effect, and will last a long time as well, barring you being a complete fuckup.
Coffee helps. Pref. mostly decaf with a little cream and sugar. Gives you a jolt of caffeine, fat, and carbs that helps contain hunger through the day. I rarely have anything for breakfast or lunch other than a cup of coffee or two.
loose more weigh if you're not crazy muscular you'll be suprised how much more circumference you can loose pear shaped means fat with a big pelvis not big boned or anything everybody stores fat in a different way tho so maybe most of yours goes to your thighs but it still can be burned
Lincoln Allen
I see, thanks. I've lost 2-3 inches in my torso area but nothing else will budge. Will squats on a deficit do much? I'm 5'4" and 105lbs btw.
Brayden Walker
you can't spot reduce if that what you meant I'd still do those squats because they will burn some calories and increase your tdee even if minimally If you feel that you can loose more weigh safely, go for it, find your sweet spot between looking great and literally dying
I hear that all the time but I'd like to at least "tighten" the area and get rid of cellulite which I shouldn't have at this weight. I remember my thighs stopped touching when I used to skip rope so I might take that up again. I just get really fed up sometimes about my bone structure and regret not treating my body better during puberty 'cause this shape isn't genetic seeing as my mom and all the women in her family have slim builds... I have a big complex over this as you can see haha
Jonathan Bell
That complex may make you think that you are bigger than you actually are Working them out won't hurt as the muscle you'll build on a deficit is minimal, but you'll sustain what you already have Also some muscle will make you look better, as you said tighter. Idk anything about getting rid of cellulite kek but i'd recomend running as a great method of toning your legs, burning calories and escaping the world and all your worries for an hour Also light lifting and sprints
Jason Miller
Possibly. Everytime I tell myself I might have a bit of body dysmorphia my mind just tells me I'm making excuses and I really do look gross. Thanks for the suggestions, they're simple but they made me realize I've been neglecting the exercise department. I will try to overcome my issues and I saw some cute shorts in town the other day that I might buy to push myself.
Lincoln Roberts
If I run on the treadmill at a medium pace for an hour will I get rid of my water retention? (Stupid question, I know. )
Jackson Ortiz
huh? You will sweat some out that for sure but not all of it
Juan Robinson
I didn't give any proper context to a already stupid question. I ate two bagels the other day and woke up bloated. Just wanted to know if running could get rid of this temporary bloat.
