What's the worse thing you ever made to eat /fat/?
Caleb Mitchell
I was at a party once where there was pizza and this dude made sloppy joes for some reason
so I made a sloppy joe using 2 slices of pizza as buns, with enough melted cheese to hold it together.
Christian Allen
I used to buy a tray of cornbread at the local grocery store. The thing was the size of 2 bricks and probably weighed 3lbs. I'd cover the entire thing in about a half inch of butter and dump salt and honey all over it. Probably over 6000 calories and 10 grams of salt right there.

I used to make a cake type thing using 3 boxes of honey buns and 1 box of nutty buddys and a jar of Nutella. I'd put a box of honey buns, then a huge layer of nutella, then a honey bun and repeat. The nutty buddy's were the crust, and in the middle. Sounds crazy, but it's been a year of dieting and im down from my highest, 526, to 482.

Justin Price
stop expecting immediate results
Parker Lopez
what are your stats and are you eating enough that you can maintain your current diet for an extended period of time?
this isn't a fucking sprint it's fucking months to years of consistent effort.
Chase Richardson
I'm not expecting immediate results and i've been doing it for some weeks now and yes what I posted it's enough for me for a day, I never been the kind of eating alot, my concern is that I can't fucking do push ups because my arms are too weak they're twigs attached to an watermelon

I actually felt sick today and yesterday because of how much I ate. But hey, tomorrow I am starting IF again and doing a two month cut which worked pretty well for me up until last week.

Dozen creme filled donuts on top of a 12" chocolate cake with whipped creme frosting. I'm filled with self loathing just thinking about it
Ethan Richardson
For me its never just one thing, but a short progression that turns into a day long avalanche. Basically, I start with something sweet, eat the entire package/portion get something else sugary to eat and so on until I feel that slight buzz from being completely full. When I feel lonely, that comfort of eating until I am full is what keeps me going
Michael Bennett
going to the market. 20 dollars. what get?
Elijah Mitchell
Brown rice, oatmeal, potatoes, fruit, collard greens, spinach, onions, chickpeas, and black beans.
Carter Wilson
This really, buy chicken next week
Benjamin Stewart
is canned okay for spinach and collard greens?
Aaron Gray
Were you in jail/prison?
Chase Morgan
No or yes. I despise the taste of canned. Frozen works for me in stir-fries. Fresh is best though (for salads or cooking).
Buy a can and try it in a recipe (do not eat plain spinach from the can it's gross). If you don't like it, buy some frozen and see if that works. Or try fresh.
Juan Phillips
Oh and buy both canned and dry chickpeas/black beans. Dry is much cheaper per serving, but a lot of times you want to make something now.
Investing in a pressure cooker is good if you cook a lot of beans and whole grains, which you should, because they are cheap and extremely healthy. Protect you from diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and promote longevity.
Whole grains are very important. Whole grain pasta, bread, bagels, etc. Unprocessed is best though, like brown rice, barley, or oatmeal. I eat a bowl of oatmeal every day.
I think people really underestimate the benefit of whole grains. Even for things like pasta, whole grain makes a huge difference.
Jayden Anderson
Just talked myself down from a pizza and garlic bread takeaway to a bowl of porridge and an apple gonna make it
Thomas Barnes
Thanks. Might nab some canned chicken and tuna if they're on sale as well.

What is your opinion on cheat meals?
Do you feel they help you in the long run? Do you stay within a certain amount of calories for it?
I haven't had a cheat meal in 4 months, but am starting to feel like I need one.
Evan Thomas
i'm hungry again it's been 7 hours since I ate, gonna eat a vegetables soup
John Harris
So ive lost weight, when should i start building muscle?

Jonathan Thomas
I don't understand the mentality of calling meals 'cheating'
if you want to eat shit, eat shit if it sets you back, it sets you back you're not cheating, you're just failing
Daniel Scott
Cheat within your calorie limit. Make up the difference somewhere else. I wanted a little cheat yesterday so I had a mcdouble as a snack and ate a smaller lunch to accommodate those extra calories. If I wanted to gorge on something I'd just skip breakfast and lunch and eat all my calories in one meal.
Caleb James
>had a cheat meal on sunday for wrestlemania >completely stopped my momentum and made me stall ever since never doing this shit again, it's literally not even fucking worth it
Eli Miller
Do knee pushups. Crank out 5 or more sets to failure every other day. Also look into pullup progressions or you're gonna end up with no bicep and no back.
Jordan Miller
so today i got lazy and just ate 1500 calories of oatmeal, and it was in water too so all calories came from oatmeal alone.
I mean at least my shits will be good tomorrow right?
Jaxon Lopez
i'm 250lbs and even knee push ups are hard, should i do counter pushups to failure or do 5 sets of 10 knee push ups a day? if i do them to failure i end up doing like 1 set of 18 and 2-3 sets of 5-8

Gavin Murphy
sorta the reason why i decided to eat so much oatmeal was because my morning shit felt like actual torture today, i was legit hyperventilating at one point.
Blake Hernandez
tfw eating 1000 calories of taco bell for dinner and still well below TDEE
Ayden King
I have regular cheat days, after I realized I don't want to "go on a diet" until I reach weight X then relapse into bad habits, but to make a permanent lifestyle change. And this is unlikely to happen if I live with the knowledge I can't have food Y in my life ever again. Also cheat days don't mean constant pigout for 16 hours, I just eat what I feel like without worrying about macros and calories, I found out I'm satisfied with a much smaller portion than what I used to eat and I don't even go that much over my limit.
Henry Collins
Tfw a single chicken quesarito is more than half my allotted calories
Aaron Powell
wow you had like 2 tacos
Caleb Reed
Maybe go to failure-1, without that last huffing puffing super slow back arching rep. Also you can rest longer between sets, you don't have to do one every 60 seconds, just don't spread them out throughout the day. On your last set definitely go to failure, then immediately switch to incline pushups and do those to failure, then wall pushups to failure. At the end of a good workout your arms should hurt when getting out of a chair.
Evan Gray
>not steak you deserve to not make it
Oliver King
You have to change your life, or those cheat meals will become the regular again and you will gain all your weight back and probably more. I've realized recently that I don't "cheat," but I try to eat really well throughout the week (usually 1k deficit, I'm fat so I have the calories to burn) and then on Saturday and or Sunday I just eat at maintenance. Going from 1500 cals to 2500 cals feels like a major cheat day, but in reality I'm just eating at maint. for 1-2 days and cutting the other 5-6.
Chase Harris
Spicy Potato Soft Tacos ordered Fresco Style are under 200 calories each.
James Barnes
You better be a woman
Austin Gomez
I'm not fat but i rather post here than make a thread about it.
Today i told myself that i would go to the gym at 19h but i didn't go because i was feeling very hungry and didn't want to work out with an empty stomach. Now tomorrow the cycle will continue with me telling myself to go to the gym in order to stop the IBS-C from fucking my life even further.
Please laugh at me.
Oh and i'm having a Big Mac for dinner. Can't wait to fart my universe out tomorrow and cry in bed.
Jason Rogers
>tfw lost 0.4kg this week >tfw not sure if I just took a really large shit
Luke Rivera
You won't adjust to eating spinach, chicken breast and oats for the rest of your life. Your chances are comparable with quitting heroin. You need to have some tasty unhealthy shit from time to time, the idea is to control how much and how often.
Brody Garcia
Life's short. If you really don't care about lifting don't. Focus on things that interest you. If you're dreading going for another reason, don't fret, the gym is no big deal. It's fucking nothing. Just a tool to clear your head. Don't get all worked up about it.
Cooper Phillips
My jeans don't fit. they keep sliding down
Lucas Sanders
I've switched to mostly healthy stuff. I just make healthy meals now. Most of my meals for the day are extremely low-fat, low-sodium, and high in vegetables.
The most unhealthy thing I make is chickpea potato curry which has a lot of coconut milk, or bean burritos which have whole wheat tortillas, refried beans, black beans, salsa, onions, tomato, and avocado.
The most unhealthy thing I eat is like a frozen fruit bar for dessert, or nuts as a snack.
You can switch. It just takes time and a bit of dedication to stop yourself from buying crap, and eating crap.
Noah Anderson
this desu. If you don't enjoy lifting, there is no one you are going to do it long term so why fucking bother.
I've been lifting a year+ and haven't missed a day, love it. Diet is my problem.
I'd recommend at least doing some sort of exercise regularly though you enjoy (lifting, cardio, join a sports league, etc.).
Jeremiah Hill
I have to lift and work out, if i don't i won't be able to have a normal life. I have literally a girl's mental disease that makes me fart constantly, feel extreme amounts of hunger, feel extreme pain after eating, and feel constipated. I can either take Anti-depressants and fuck my already fucked shit up or work out and have a normal life without being scared of shitting myself or farting in public.
Jordan Reyes

You probably don't get enough fiber. 28 grams per day for a woman.
The more fiber you get, the more regular your BMs will be. Fiber also helps with menstrual cramps if you get those.
Christopher Mitchell

Noah Hernandez
>I can either take Anti-depressants and fuck my already fucked shit up or work out and have a normal life without being scared of shitting myself or farting in public.
That sounds like a lot of motivation to work out. So do it. It's like brushing your teeth in the morning. It becomes a habit. you forget you're even doing it eventually. Just takes some innitial motivation at the start. If you can, join a 24/7 gym, go in the wee hours of the morning and try and make a routine of it. Make a routine of it regardless, every day same time, ect.
