first time I have strayed from my routine in a year, felt good.
Aaron Torres
Just how bad is smoking for trying to lose weight? it fucks with your respiratory system for sure but other than long term effects can you expect to get any sort of problem besides that when going for weight loss?
Also wanted to know just how many calories you guys go for in your deficits so that I can get an idea of where to go right now.
what has worked for you? how do you stay motivated?
Adam Long
>didn't bother linking new thread in last thread
what the fuck, do you know how long it takes fat people to migrate, let alone when they aren't told to???
Brayden Harris
don't smoke to lose weight idiot
I started with maintenance and just kept subtracting calories as I got used to it. Down to like 1300-1500 with a 2400 TDEE, not going to go any lower.
Logan Wood
I don't smoke but was wondering what effects it had when losing weight.
Thanks for the advice man I really appreciate it and I'll try it out to see if it works for me.
Jackson Taylor
done faggot

Landon Ward
Oh I didn't like that very much.
But I understand your criticism.
Cooper Edwards
Just throw away your chisel
Ethan Cruz
Wow! Thank you for the recipes. I've been meaning to try to cook better for myself. I just need to learn how to exercise properly now.
Cooper Cook
It's Saturday which is the most common cheat day for fatties.
whatcha eatin' Veeky Forums?
I'm having an Asian-style turkey burger.
Samuel Taylor
the recommend diet worked for me. IF is nice because of how it regulates your insulin. the book helped me a lot when I started my cut.
Lucas Turner
Could anyone offer advice for a girl trying to get toned? Such as, good exercises apart from just squats. I'm not very strong, and I'm quite small.
Noah Sullivan
how do you know if you're obsessed with weight loss?
I tend to think about it a lot, and have had a few nightmares where I've eaten something and not recorded the calories.
Colton Green
reading the sticky helps
John Hill
Swimming
Joseph Martin
read the sticky and do SS. The program is unisex, and since it contains squats and deadlifts it will hit your legs pretty good. slimdownload.co/598543

I see, sorry. I'm just kind of new here and was too nervous to make my own thread. But thank you.

Okay, will do! Thank you!

Anyone have experience with a keto diet? Just starting mine today. 210, 5'11
Also I'm almost at three weeks without cigs or vaping. I feel amazing and people have been telling me I look better
Kevin Price
2 halo top pints, jerky stick, muffin, protein bar. Now going out to eat at a diner.
Luke Diaz
You know I think I like the ritual of ordering pizza more than I like actually eating it.
Jackson Lee

Julian Moore
had a prawn sandwich it was okay
Matthew Cox
so what cardio yall doin?
Adam Nelson
Jump rope HIIT 3x a week 3-5 mile walk 5x a week
William Scott
how goes it my blobby brethren? was today a win?
Chase Wright
30min run every second day
Grayson Lee
Swimming laps for 30 minutes, stair climber 30 minutes, or HIIIT running.
I log 5-6 hours of cardio a week.
Kayden Powell
If I do PSMF and cardio (which isn't recommended in the book) will I be burning muscle mass? Want to drop from 230 to 200 or lower before my friends graduation in may. Last time she saw me I was 270, want to leave a good impression.
Matthew Kelly
Couch to 5k, I jog 3x a week. I think I might up it to 4x though
Nolan Martin
none until my leg heals
Thomas Wood
>spend a year losing weight >decide to have 1 cheat day >wtf im 236 now
Adam Kelly
Went and got groceries for the week, walked right past the junk food and wasn't even interested
Brandon Reed
Found out a guy I knew had a heart attack recently
I am now worried and think the same might happen to me
Got my levels checked and I am really in a dangerous spot
6;1 275lb Basically a couch potato in the office and at home Been on a steady cut for a week now and doing alright, just gotta keep going I guess If I do have a heart attack for some reason, I just want to die and not live with these health issues at that point
Chase Reyes
Had a smallish döner. But it's okay because I didn't eat much today and saved up the calories. Unless it was over 1000. In which case I'm fucked.
Julian Thompson
>Cut calories and avoid high calorie foods like soda, ice cream, etc. >Try to do High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) 3 times a week ((Run 2 minutes, Sprint 1 minute, 20 minutes total)) >Get some protein within 30 minutes after your workout >Try to lift a couple times a week (the more the better) ((generally takes 24 hours for a muscle group to recover from a workout so try to be flexible with your lifting routines)) >Vary your order of lifting and exercises, this is beneficial so your body doesn't become resilient and adapt to your workout patterns >Get a good work ethic >Go to the gym to the point where you enjoy it and can't stay away (This will happen if you go enough)
Just saved you time reading the sticky. Follow this and you will see fat loss and muscle gains. The most important thing is to enjoy working out!
James Gray
Smoking is a minor appetite suppressor, but it also negatively affects digestion.
Also, Smokers are Jokers
Blake Robinson
Keep at it m8! Don't give up
Jaxon Scott
Start bulking my man, or at least eat at maintenance over the summer if you wanna follow the typical Veeky Forums seasons. You're halfway to making it.
Kayden Barnes
At a pace of about 1 cookie per 5 minutes. I need something I can feed from the package into my mouth when playing vidya.
Brandon Flores
those are biscuits
Caleb James
>toned Ride a bike a lot, maybe do some bodyweight if you don't want your arms to be straight gauge tubes (although it doesn't matter on a girl). Strength training for legs will give you disproportionate oversized thighs and ass which is NOT what guys like despite what Veeky Forums wants you to believe.
Ian Sanchez
Another week another pound lost :3
Brody Taylor
Not every guy likes thin girls, just like not every girl likes muscular guys. I like centaur looking woman with huge quads because lifting made me forget how normal humans need to look like
Jose Fisher
Cashed in my good boy points today for Mod Pizza and Whataburger. I feel disgusted but at the same time good
Zachary Richardson
Just do walking. I wouldn't do more than that if you are following PSMF to the letter
Joseph King
Yeah take a long hard look at those two pictures and ponder which one will appeal to more men.
Austin Nguyen
45 minutes on the elliptical three times a week
Its all I do actually I haven't gotten into lifting yet
Aiden Moore
>tfw down to 240 from start of the month when I was 250 and haven't even started exercising yet
desu I dont know if I should even bother because I feel like exercising on a 1200 calorie cut will drain me whereas I have been able to stick to it so far by not being tired
Adrian Cooper
Today was pretty swell
Rate my meals today /fat/
Breakfast: Whole wheat toast with peanut butter and flax seed
Lunch: Spinach salad with carrots, onion, cucumbers, beans, and lemon juice and olive oil.
Thats all I ate today and I a on a cut, I'm hoping I will be fine but at this point feeling like shit and I don't care
yea, im russian btw
Ryder Johnson
breakfast: potato, egg, bean burito dinner: carne, fideo, squash, corn and beans with couple corn tortillas
did alright. 1425 calories all together
Alexander Bell
>Eating carbs >Making it
pick one
Jordan Smith
>1200 calorie cut
How big is your deficit?
Luke Sanchez
priviet
Jaxson Martin
1200-1300
I am 26% bodyfat at 6'2'' 240 but I look fatter because of my wide frame and man tits
Eli Martinez
You shouldn't be eating at a 1200-1300 deficit that unsustainable
Eat 1800-2000 calories if your TDEE is really 2400.
Kevin Hughes
Ive been on it for 2 weeks no problem
Ryan Taylor
I mean its up to you bro but you're more likely to give up on such a deep cut.
Josiah Myers
I'm tired of this meme posted every thread. People can cut on more than a 500 kcal deficit. Worst case, they binge and up their daily kcal intake. Not everyone got fat binge eating, a lot of people it was just years of poor diet/lack of exercise.
Carter Roberts
I mean you're right about it being posted constantly in this thread, but this guy is literally not exercising because his deficit is too large. So you say there are people in this thread who gained weight through lack of exercise...maybe they should...I don't know... exercise? And not use their ridiculously unsustainable cut to justify their laziness?
Ethan Ortiz
these links look dangerous desu
Leo Morgan
Does anybody have any tips on how to avoid eating out of stress? When my life is going relatively smoothly, i can diet, exercise, and other things like it's no problem. But when I get too stressed, i cant explain it. Things I'd never even crave im suddenly picking up and shoving in my face. I actually eat myself sick. I have a big renovation going on in my house thats been stressing me out a lot. Thursday it all culminated and I went on a two day food bender. I got my shit together, but I want to see if anybody has any tips on how to avoid this in the future
Aaron Morgan
Stopping by as a skinnyfat guy asking what worked for you for cutting weight. I'm 190 lbs , slowly building muscle on a PPL over the last month but have a fair amount of fat I want to shift. I use an exercise bike in the gym before every workout and have begun consuming "diet" forms of soda instead of the originals, what else have you guys found successful?
Matthew Nelson
those really, REALLY obese people that can lose 1lb of fat in a single day; you're telling me that they sweat, piss and breath that out over 24 hours?
Aaron Hernandez
I know this probably isn't helpful but a lot of it is just will power. You have to like reteach yourself not to depend on food for comfort.
Exercising lowers stress and I have found that I feel happier and more at ease on weeks where I exercise consistently
Grayson Gomez
>consuming "diet" forms of soda instead of the originals
Dropped.

For me watching calories is absolutely key, I've not missed a day logging into MFP for over a year. Intermittent fasting helped a lot also, I do a mix of OMAD and just skipping breakfast. Also I never went full Keto, but watching carbs helped me a lot. It keeps energy levels more stable and hunger under control. All eating rice is going to do for me is make me hungrier.
Benjamin Allen
I think I need to find some outlet other than eating. You might be on to something with thathe second bit, though. I've constantly been running around doing shit for this renovation, so working out has been put on the back burner. That could be making things worse for me. It'll be over and done with in a week or so, so at least I know it won't last.
Austin Johnson
It's all about percentages. I mean for me to lose a pound is a big deal because I'm tiny, but some 6' 3" 400-lb Pepe losing a pound is an extremely small percent of their body.
Evan Adams
Trying to cut weight, but sometimes I get cravings for foods and just things I used to enjoy. Anyone have a recommendation for a substitute of ice cream on brownies? I really just want something cold on top of something really hot that's been baked, it's a fucking amazing experience right now. Shit ain't gotta be too sweet, just got to hit that craving.
Jacob Williams
Yes.
Robert Cook
>All eating rice is going to do for me is make me hungrier.
I eat brown rice is that okay? I always feel full after.
Lucas Kelly
Ice cube on whole grain toast.
Ethan Garcia
>ice cream on brownies
I used to make a baked banana with peanut butter and nuts with a side of greek yogurt
bretty good desu
Josiah Rogers
fuckin kek
>peanut butter not gonna make it eating that shit
Cameron Morales
It's better, but still not great. It has some fiber in it to smooth out the insulin spike, but the spike is still there. I'm not saying never eat rice, but, it's certainly something I'd avoid when trying to get clean. Then just have it in moderation when maintaining or bulking.
Carson Lopez
Gotta get your daily minimum fats from somewhere user. Need at least 20% of your calories in fats to stay healthy
Jacob Foster
thoughts?
Bentley Brown
I don't get the anti-PB meme as long as you're not literally eating spoonfuls of it it's a perfectly fine food? Especially when you're craving something creamy/sweey/salty it has the perfect combo for cravings.
Levi Diaz
I like the second one. But only as a novelty.
Julian Perry
Weigh myself. >78kg I don't like the sound of that, I should be lighter. >move scales slightly across the floor Weigh again. >77kg That's bet... Wait, no it isn't. How the fuck am I supposed to get a correct reading out of this shit if it changes depending on where on my floor I put the things?
Grayson Long
Yeah I feel you. It just makes my meals feel more substantive. I am trying to cut out more animal meats too and without brown rice and whole wheat bread I would just be eating salads all the time and that is suffering.
Andrew Green
Keep it in the same place every time you weigh yourself and don't move it, ever.
Nicholas Diaz
Please enjoy life.
Justin Reyes
this, and also stand on the same place on the scales every time, a good way to do this is to spread a little talc powder on the scales then stand on it with wet feet and it will leave a good outline of your feet so you know where to put your toes and heel
Jordan Sanders

>went from 243 pounds to to 220 in 2 months >go to gym with crush >she wants mcdonalds, it's cheating day and haven't cheated in 2 weeks >order 2 mayo chicken >she cooks and gives me pizza aswell >enjoyed cheating but i feel guilty now Although my progress is going really well and building muscle mass really fast i feel like i shouldn't cheat even a single day untill i get a good body and my crush falls with me. Does anyone else feel guilty for cheating although your progress is going really well?
