Skinny gut

Long ago I made the grave mistake of letting myself get fat. Comfort eating is a hell of a drug. Well, to this day I'm paying the price.

At my height of about 5'11", my average weight would be 154, and I got to 211. After that, I managed to slim down to 141. One problem tho: the belly didn't go away. Why the fuck this is happening is my question to you, dear Veeky Forums.

Searching around for this hasn't been very useful. 9 times out of 10, they say "there's no such thing as area fat, you lose all fat at the same time", which is invalidated by my damn belly staying there even when I was underweight.

The tenth time, the advice is about anterior pelvic tilt. Now that's useful. I just started doing exercises, but judging by the would-be result when I undo the tilt and look at my profile, the fucking gut still remains.

So then, Veeky Forums. I'm not like those skinnyfat pics, my hanging gut is voluminous enough to grab a handful. Am I going to carry this weight for my entire damn life? Is it a matter of becoming even more underweight and staying that way forever? Is it the result of some medical condition or some shit?

You diabetic brah? Other than that you probably forfeited alot of muscle mass (if you had any) when you cut so much. Start working out and doing hiit. Also count your damn calories and stay away from sugar and fast food bullshit. Time you started looking at food as fuel not comfort.

What's your actual body fat? did you have it measured recently? is pic you recent? cuz it looks like 24+%.. you don't just need to loose weight, you need to build up some muscle.. gotta start lifting hard..

also, could be some sort of issue with liver.. get a physical exam.

maybe you have a cyst or some shit?

also im black too hello

OP you might be pregnant, there's not way you went from 211 to 141 and look like that.

Dude, it is your posture, also everyone has a "gut" when they stick it out, that's because your transverse abdominis helps keep everything packed in, and like you said, you're not supposed to have a fucking pelvic tilt so stop doing it you dumb cunt.

I was 143 at some point and 6'1. Pic related.

A year later I was also pic related at 165-170.

Work out more. Go slow. It takes time. Also the pics are both bad but that's the only before/after I have.

And your pic shows distended stomach, which everyone has if they fully release their abs. Which is actually hard unless you almost have no muscle.

Fuck, I'm a moron and forgot to say the pic isn't me, it's just the one I found that most illustrates the problem. My potbelly isn't as big as that guy's, mercifully.

I'm not diabetic, I'm currently liftan. Also I'll look into the liver, thanks.

this OP

I had the exact same problem, but it doesn't have anything to do with bodyfat, it's just your posture. You have to push back your shoulders and get your chest up so your core holds your torso in a straight position.

Abs excercises help since your core might not be strong enough to keep that posture for long. I had the condition for the longest time and you cannot fathom how happy it made me when I realized what was happening.

you have stomach-AIDS

just de-worm yourself and try intemittent fasting

don't forget to max out your ketones through proton expansion during liftang.

from age like 18-death some women get a stomach crease. doesn't matter if they are fat or not the wrinkle/fold mark stays there and it's from bad posture mainly from sitting. you see this quite a bit with girls who walk around with tops that show their belly.

It's all posture? I dunno, it's just that judging by the volume, I figure posture alone shouldn't cause it. Regardless, I'll look it up, thank you very much. I'l get a sixpack even if it kills me.

well I mean, of course it will be more noticeable with high bf (and if you eat a fuckload in one sitting), but the main reason is the posture, I fucking swear OP, you just gotta keep your back straight, it's quite uncomfy at first but when you get used to it it comes naturally and you start wondering why you had such bad posture for so long

lol the volume. you generalize and you get generalized answers. there is no way some of it isn't posture, but it isn't just your posture. i'd say the main reason is your diet, not posture. basically just fix your damn posture.

now that that is out of the way you may not be able to achieve a visual "six pack" at all. maybe your muscles are formed into a 4 pack. or an 8 pack. you know what i mean?

I dont know m8. When i had a gut like that only thing that would fix it was sucking that shit in like my life depended on it. Felt like air in there as well

Well yeah, sixpack is just the general term, I know it's up to genetics. The other day, someone posted a guy who had a misshapen onepack.

captcha COURT GROVE ST

I have the same issue. And Veeky Forums always told me that either it's my posture or I should lift and it will go away. I fixed my posture, I lift, but gut is still there. It's not fat as I can easily suck almost 100% of it and get washboard abs, and it's not weak abs muscles because I train them directly and indirectly trough compound lifts.
But I have the same background as you, I used to be a lazy fat piece of shit all my life and I guess this is the cross I need to carry for my old sins

kek this is what i look like after stuffing every orifice of my body with food. starting to gomad from all this ss. :^)

Thinking it might be visceral fat, which is harder to get rid of than outside fat. Should prob nuke it with dnp to be sure.

As I said it's not fat in my case, it's a huge bloated gut filled either with fluid or gas, I don't know.

As I said before, just de-worm your fucking self and do intermittent fasting you thick-headed dumb cunt son of a bitch.

Anterior pelvic tilt, maybe? Also I suppose bloat is possible. I have had an ultrasound done in the past looking for it, among other things.

Look up visceral fat. Its fat thats between your organs and can allow you to have abs while having a gut

Check out this video. Might be this simple

I've tried so many things I can't even count them all. Last battle I fought was using the DNP and eating only 600-800cal ending at Aushwitz mode looking very sick just to see if this final solution can actually work. Do you think that fucking balloon went somewhere? Fuck no it didn't!

I've done stretches and all other exercises for months just in case, but I'm not even sure I have it.

Well it doesn't really feels like fat. As I said, I can easily suck it all in and you won't guess a thing. As soon as I relax my abs it baloons up and you can easily poke the gut with a finger and it will go a few inches in with very little resistance

when i started breakdancing i was 11% body fat doingn strictly bodyweight. i had a small gut pop out ever so slightly on me even though when i flexed there was just abs. it was my organs.

also, not bragging about my abs here, i was one of those kids that had them by default from age 6 on.

Might be Palumbo-ism since you took DNP. GG OP.

My hand didn't go trough. Does it mean I don't have APT?

wow dude not cool i thought you were a fellow african american citizen

Have you ever had test on your gastro-intestinal tract? If not, maybe it's worth seeing a specialist about it. Could be bloating or palumboism, like the other user said.

All I know that I used to have a Gastritis when I was a kid. Then I just stopped going to doctor because gastro exams used to be very painful back in the days.
Maybe you're right and I should check my internals 20 years later

Were you ever, or are you currently very muscular? I got down to 125 lbs at 5'10" and I still had an edge of fat on my belly that didn't go away until I started lifting and putting on significant muscle. Hopefully that helps.

im not really the weight lifting type

i dont want to be a meat head either

please leave my thread

never gonna make it

FECAL TRANSPLANT

Get cozy with your awful gut weakling

Well then, fuck you you fucking mutant who can't even get his stomach sorted out.

Just die thank you.

Alright lad, I'll help you. Only because I've been in the same situation for YEARS and nothing worked and I know your pain.

First of all, it's fat. Spoiler alert, you don't actually burn fat equally around your body - I personally burn face/upper-body fat insanely fast, from moobs to almost bone in a matter of a week or two on an average cut.

Anyway, here's what you do and I guarantee you WILL finally lose your stomach. It's going to be slightly hard, maintenance will be even harder, but it's worth it, trust me.

First of all, keto. Memorize the nutrition data of every single common food. Takes a couple of days tops and you will most likely need it in the future anyway. Then design a diet of less than 500kcal and up to a maximum of 2-3g carbs. Here's my own as an example

>Day 1: 3 eggs
>Day 2: Nothing
>Day 3: 3 eggs
>Day 4: Nothing
>Day 5: ~300g of fried zucchini
>Day 6: Nothing
>Day 7: 150ml olive oil, a handful of nuts, two lemons

I call it the Auschwitz diet. It's basically an extreme calorie deficit, IF with a half an hour bi-daily window and keto at the same time. Two weeks of it is all you need.

It sounds hard as fuck and impossible at first, but your body snaps around the 3rd day and you literally stop feeling hunger. I only ate because I was afraid of getting organ failure and I barely managed to eat the small portion of food I was eating as it felt like a fucking 2000kcal meal.

As for maintenance, get back to your normal intake or bulk, just never touch sugar or gluten again. This is way harder than it sounds as you will develop a feeling that you're immune from getting fat now that you can easily cut 15% bf in two weeks and that a few cheat meals "wont hurt".

Oh, and your muscles. You'll burn them before the fat, so be prepared to lose any gains you've made so far. And no, you won't die, just make sure you get your multivits daily.

That's sadly the only way to burn your belly fat, but trust me, it works and it's fucking worth it. You're welcome senpai

Legit not likely fat. 95% chance you legit have no abdominal muscles so your guts are just pushing against your core.

Do vacuum guts 5 times a day for a few weeks. Planks every other day.

I am not joking when I say this, but its gonna sound crazy;

That might not be fat. It might be liquid. A friend of mine (a girl) developed a huge cocoon of liquid in her belly. Everyone, including her, thought tit was fat. Then she had it checked out. Turned out to be 11 pounds of liquid. They operated her and took it out and now shes back to being alarmingly skinny.

Dude every person stores fat differently. Some people can have 10 % body fat and still have a gut cuz that's where there hardest too lose fat just so happens to be. Some people will have a very hard time obtaining the holy six pack. It's all genetics fellas pure and simple.

Looks like the dude in that pic has ascities.

What the actual fuck, is there a medical term for this?

Auschwitz user, I'm not op. I'm currently struggling with belly fat as well. Does this diet literally means you get to eat 3 eggs every other day for two weeks and that's it?

I think it's Ascites, although googling turns up pictures that are far more severe than what she suffered from.

not him, but yeah that is what he means.

look into intermittent fasting. also look into mercola's fasting schedule. it's something like eat normally 5 days a week, 500 calories only two days a week.

the easiest would probably be fasting 20 hours every day or every other day. so timing your meal in an eight hour or four hour window.

OP, if you starved yourself too much in order to lose those 70 pounds, your body may have panicked and started producing large amounts of cortisol, which sometimes means you keep some fat on your belly at the expense of other body parts.

You need to think long term, eat well and exercise, and it will all balance out eventually.

Merlin'

did you just bulk at a 250 cal surplus? no cutting?

Mix yohimbine with coco-butter lotion and apply to stomach area once a day after a shower.
Go on a calorie deficit (it wont work unless you are eating less than TDEE)
Do stomach vacuums
Do core-improving exercises (yes its posture related too, your organs are litteraly plumping out of you along with the fat)
Do ab-atrophy excercises

You'll be golden in 3-6 months.

Sorry for the slow response, yes, 3 eggs every other day. I guarantee your stomach and whatever persistent fat you have (most likely ass/legs) will be gone in just two weeks. There's literally no better diet to do during May if you're fat, since you can get to stickman mode and start a clean bulk for that Jul/Aug beach body.

Just be careful with your new "god complex" as you will literally lose any fear of getting fat after seeing how easy it is to not be fat and you may yo-yo the fuck out of it. I personally did that the first time and went through the worst bulk of my life.

And you should also know that you'll revert to literal zero progress. I'm talking struggle-with-a-single-plate zero.

Oh, and the black outs. Your blood pressure might drop and posture changes like getting up after sitting for a while will most likely cause a second-long blackout, or something like it. Ignore it, it's nothing, you're not dying, you're simply in a state our ancestors experienced a couple of times every.single.year. There are researches that conclude that such an extreme fast is actually even beneficial for your long-term health, cba looking for them tho. And don't bother doing fitness stuff during the diet, it will literally be impossible. Just stay idle and enjoy watching your fat disappear

For the post-diet maintenance and bulk, I strongly recommend a minimum of 100 grams of protein daily, every day, even during rests. 150 is better but costs a lot, so do that if you have the money. Go for chicken and fish mainly.

And one last thing, a small percent of us seem to have a very strange condition where you get a chest rash every single time you're in keto. I personally use it as a 100% accurate indicator that I'm in ketosis, so if you happen to be one of us, don't panic - again, you're not dying, the rash is harmless and will disappear once you end the diet.

Just bumping to say thanks for all the tips and suggestions.

And that is a cum-gargling faggot.
