milk tastes so god damn good, might try a gomad bulk after the summer but need to get to 8% first
Oliver Reyes
Why do their knees go in like that?
Julian Hughes
Goddamn same here I'll also eat tons of pb after I get to around 10%
Kevin Flores
I'm super ashamed of being fat. I have no excuses.
>be a fosterkid >fosterparents love me extremely much and work hard all their lives to give me and my brother the best in life >born with hypercholesterolemia >parents and doctors cooperate to give me the best diet they can to help me >i work against them by using all my money on candy and raiding the fridge during the night >parents chase me outside every day because all i want to do is stay on the computer >work against them by hiding in nearby forest and just napping all day >all my friends are active and always make sure to include me and invite me when doing things >i work against them by either refusing to come along or just sit and watch on the sidelines, alienating myself on purpose
I literally had a naturally fit lifestyle handed to me on a plate and yet i threw it all away because i was stupid
165lbs, down from 210, i'm gonna make it i can't live every day being angry at myself any more, i have to make it
Jason Long
And you will make it. Hope you still have good relationships with your foster parents. Stay positive user and embrace the outdoor life.
Wyatt Baker
Opinions on this guy?
Anthony Sanders
lol ive never been fat tho....6'3 always had abs since 12 years old kek
Nolan Adams
So how is your diet going fellas
Landon Lopez
MEPS on Wednesday and Thursday. I'm a little nervous as my mile is just around 10 minutes right now, but my push-ups and sit-ups are fine.
I'm going to be the oldest mother fucker there and, that in mind, most of my family is deceased or we're not on good terms so writing letters is going to be a bitch. Can't imagine being the one mother fucker not getting mail.
Need to shore up my weight and runs. I put in 5 miles a day and ruck at 60 lbs for 3-5, depending.
Going to add 100 laps a day in the pool and maybe a 5 mile bike ride, just to cardio out the ass.
Focus on bodyweight routine since I'm .75/1.25/2.75/3.5 on my lifts. Close enough, considering the constant cut.
Wish me luck, /fat/s.
Parker Carter
I´ve reduced my deficite a bit since a average deficite of 1500kcal per day was kind of extreme for my verry small body.
Charles Smith
>tfw 13%bf
hold me bros, being this fat makes me wanna kms
Adam Sanders
how old are? height/weight? what branch and mos?
best of luck, man.
Carter Brooks
how were you in the negative calories?
James Scott
27 6'2 - 190 lbs, should be 180 by ship out. Army Reserve - 68T (Animal Care Technician)
If 68T isn't open, I ASVAB'd high enough to be anything so I will likely stay medical, alternatively, 68W (Health Care Specialist)
Jackson Robinson
p good
Benjamin Phillips
fat fucks
Angel Ortiz
Oh shit. Guys it is time for my weekly weigh in.
I'm scared.
Ethan Scott
Try 68A bmet for those sweet sweet civilian dollars. The guy I replaced at my unit (SSG, 10 yrs) is making 103k rn at a children's hospital
Hudson Bailey
No shit? I picked 68T because I intend to go to school full time and become an Army Veterinarian. Seemed the most logical approach to it.
Tempting though.
Logan Myers
Today I am one month into dieting. I've gone from 300 lbs to 275 this morning.
Luis Perry
Do I run before or after my weight lifting workout to minimize muscle loss? I'm able to run 10 minutes at 6.5 mph. I will try to increase it to 20 min and eventually 30 min as I get skinnier. Do I run before, so I can go home, eat my protein and carbs to replenish as quickly as possible. Or do I do it after so I have more energy during my workout? I'm too lazy to jog during off days.
Luke Sullivan
I'm a recent immigrant to America and I realized Americans are so fat, why is that?
Gabriel Howard
Because even the poorest among us have an abundance of food.
Aaron Nelson
too much fat in upper inner thighs.
Brody Morgan
because food is delicious but no one seems to understand what's nutritious
Blake Wilson
do it pussy and report back with results.
Aiden Perry
Because obesity is a huge money making industry in the US. The fast and processed food corps. make money but selling shit food to people. Then the medical and fitness (look at planet fitness) industry makes huge bucks """trying""" to cure obesity. It's a pretty shit cycle.
Isaac Edwards
the american mindset is quite stunning, they rather make up support groups and call the media hitler than turning the lens inward and to acknowledge that they have a problem.
Connor Miller
More like your food have a shit quality.
Joshua Reed
you have to go back
Hudson Harris
Yes, every single piece of food in the US is shit quality. You figured it out, now go back
Easton Wilson
There's like a direct correlation between the war on fat/low fat craze and the obesity epidemic. Everything here is loaded with sugars and carbs because for like 40 years they pushed carbs being healthy and fats being bad.
Dumbfucks don't realize that.
Connor Morris
Down a pound. At 245lbs. I was hoping for two, but I'm still okay with it.
Anthony Jenkins
started the water fasting meme today. 6 hours in. will report the next days. Just wanna test my willpower and discipline.
Got some supps to get all my vitamins/nutrients.
Also, do you think Tea would break the fasting? (even if its calles water fasting)
Brandon Perry
is that daily loss or weekly? 6 hours inst fasting yet, fasting kicks in at like 8 hours. but good luck hope it works.
Ryder Harris
>is that daily loss or weekly? I weigh every week. I started my plan on April 30, 2017 at 256lbs. I'm down to 245lbs today for a total loss in that time of 11 pounds.
I went 2 weeks where the scale refused to move, but I made some changes and I'm losing now. My goal is 2 pounds or more a week, but I need to exercise a lot more for that to happen
Nicholas Reed
a lb in a week is ok. should be the usual but at 245 you can push for 2 lbs a week until around 200ish. try to recount your diet. are you a grill or just post grills lifting?
Michael Cooper
I never understood how that trend formed up. I mean, you still have bakeries, farmer's markets and grocery stores, right? Even if not, the supermarkets still carry fresh produce and raw grains, right? Why have Americans turned to processed packaged garbage so much more than everybody else? The same shit is available in Europe but the majority still buys raw ingredients and cooks at home. I often hear how bad food is cheaper in the US, how do you manage to make a product cost less than the ingredients that went in it? Is there some organization subsidizing those products?
Anthony Nguyen
>just post grills lifting Also birds.
I'm a guy and my diet is fine. I don't want to go lower than 1800 calories a day. I just need to do my daily cardio. I also took a little weightlifting break because I injured my neck doing some benchpress without a bench.
Leo Bennett
Question: I was making my shopping list and it had skim milk on it, and my friend gets into a big huff about how it has more sugar than regular milk and no nutrients. I drink Skim because its got the same grams of protein but less calories. What am I missing out on by going with Skim milk?
Thomas Stewart
best thing is, when I visited america, people seem to be too dumb to buy ingredients and cut them up for a salad. they buy their salad already done or from mcdonalds and shit, while complaining "MUH BURGERS MUH SALAD TOO EXPENSIVE THATS WHY WE FAT"
The fuck is wrong with them, how uneducated can u be
Jacob Jackson
you "miss" out on more fat. thats it. it just got a lower fat % = less calories
don't let them fool you, your friend seems dumb and let me guess he also thinks veggies make you thin and fastfood fat
Jace Martin
convenience is a problem too odds are a decent amount of them work a shitty desk job all day, and grabbing shit fast food saves time
What games do you play fatties? I need a new game that i can play for a while.
Jack Taylor
There's tons of people working a shitty desk job all day in Europe too and the manage somehow.
Hunter Foster
Of you're trying to lose weight you shouldn't drink milk in the first place. If you're going to drink milk at least drink skim. I didn't look at the link because milk is shitty anyway.
Nicholas Wood
is it ok if i come here since theres no skinny fat gen?
where do you guys get real olive oil? live in the deep south so everything in the stores are fake and idk what brands are real what other oils are good to cook with too? can i use flax or is what im buying probably fake too is vegetable oil bad?
Adrian Gomez
he's looking good.
Tyler Richardson
i don't remember uraraka being that fit.
Aaron Cox
made WAAAY too much mince don't think I'll eat it all before it goes bad
pretty sure my math is wrong because the calorie count is just too damn low for how filling it is
Noah Rodriguez
Im not trying to lose weight right now, bulking, I just like milk to cook some things with and mix in with my protein shake.
Juan Robinson
In Canada the nutritional information on products gives you fat as a percentage of daily allowance (which the government thinks should be practically nothing) but they give you sugar as a unit of grams as if you can have unlimited sugar in your diet.
Jaxson Adams
Redpill me on diet soda, please.
I've avoided soda all my life, but today had a can of diet pepsi and discovered that not only was it 0 calories, but all it had was just a little bit of sodium.
But I remember people hating on diet soda in this thread in the past. So why should I start drinking diet soda as an alternative to caffeine instead of coffee and tea?
Sebastian Russell
Confess.
Anthony Long
Honestly, if 210 was your worst weight then you didn't do THAT bad unless you're like 5'5 or something.
Xavier Adams
to me he seems a bit on the crazy side, like onision type of crazy
Luke Campbell
I just ate an extra 800 calories today.
But the good news is that I no longer need to add sugar to my coffee, so that's 130 calories less per day.
Grayson Nguyen
How hard am I allowed to squeeze when taking skinfold measurements?
Gavin Jenkins
I've been on gomad since around the beginning of march, and these are my results. Keep in mind I wasn't perfect but I drank a gallon at least around 8/10 days.
Should I cut it now that it's basically summer or have I not made enough progress to justify it and it's too late to cut anyway?
Zachary Flores
tren + gomad + SS
Elijah Cox
Here's me pre gomad
Cooper Cooper
What the hell did you eat that day? Did you chug a liter of olive oil?
Luis Miller
I'm just gonna post my backs hot since I think I've made the most progress in my lower body even if it's still shit.
What's tren?
Kevin Gomez
*backside
Gabriel Cruz
I'm assuming that means under his maintenance
Jaxon Collins
>tfw recovery day >tfw comfy as fuck in my room with my fan blowing cool air towards me while starting up and learning Crusader Kings 2 for the first time while watching E3 streams while drinking delicious protein shake
Luke Martin
Some low fat products add sugar to make up for the relative blandness from removing the fat. Not sure if they do it with milk too, but that might be where he got it from. Easy to check on the packaging and avoid the products that do this.
Brody Young
>bench press without a bench you mean a floor press?
Jace Lewis
>willingly giving yourself estrogen
Alexander Powell
5'4''
Grayson Ortiz
people say it gives you cancer, insulin spikes and shit which could give you hunger for fastfood. but thats a question of willpower.
The cancer thing idk. Maybe. But desu? Nowadays everything gives you cancer and as long as you are not exaggerating, you can drink your diet soda and be fine.
good thing is, that you have something that tastes good and is a nice variation to only drinking water. dont listen to the turbo autists h2o addicts.
Henry Gray
Makes me sad to see all the people that fall for GOMAD+SS. SS in and of itself will make you look like shit. It's just for developing your nervous system to adapt to the lifts, so once you start going heavier on higher volume programs, you will not struggle with the form. Stop doing GOMAD bro. I would recommend switching to a higher volume 5x5 program while eating at a slight deficit. Once you start to plateau, increase your calories to a maintenance. Once you start to plateau again, increase the surplus a bit more. GOMAD is only for the super skinny guys, you are not one of them. In terms of a good volume program you should switch to, I'd recommend ICF 5x5 or AlphaDestiny's Novice program. Yeah Alex and Bloho are kinda memes, but they have really solid high volume programs that are great for building strength while also putting on a lot of size.
Thomas Nguyen
Subsidized corn syrup in literally everything and the big sugar cabal brainwashing everyone into thinking that fat is the real enemy.
Jackson Hall
Tren as in trenbolone. It's a steroid
Justin Thomas
Increased accessibility to food. There are fast food places on every street.
John Bennett
>>bench press without a bench >you mean a floor press? No, I mean a bench press. Used a foam roller to get the height. I'm used my laundry hamper in the past, but I cracked it.
Levi Hughes
I'm not really seeing a difference with these two pictures.. except that you lost your man-titties, which is great!
Isaac Wood
...
Carson Stewart
25 pounds in a morning? Props to you man, that's quite the accomplishment.
Parker Richardson
I was fasting, but got rekt in an accident. I'm fine, just really damn sore all fucking over. Should I start eating for now or finish the fast anyway? Don't want to slow down recovery.
Elijah Allen
I did a 5 brosplit for a year now with a few months break due to eye surgery, barely improved my compounds (70kg bench, 90kg squat and 85 DL only), should I go do SS for a few months and switch to a ULUL split or what do, idk. Help pls 6'2" and 196 lbs 18.7%BF
Nathan Martinez
Wrong thread, sry
Bentley Hill
Any advice on how to get the right percentages of protein/fat/carbs when not on gomad. and also keeping track of calories in general? Also on icf 5x5 it says to do bench press but I've mostly been doing incline bench. Does that matter or should I go back to bench?
That was an actually really helpful answer thanks m8.
Evan Reed
gomad is for literal Auschwitz surviors. unless you got bones sticking out you shouldnt be doing it. you just gained alot of fat for no reason. you shoulda just lifted. people need to stop jumping into gomad, do a little thinking first.
Nathan Price
you are an idiot. if you dont have a bench dont do bench press. you are going to wreck your back doing that. chicken and rice and greek yogurt. done and done. its like you retards cant google basic macros in food or even read it off the label.
James Rivera
Then /fat/ is not for you. Go be a fag somewhere else.
Justin Fisher
Do cycle of clen
Brandon Lopez
I think Costco has some good stuff. That's where I've always gotten mine and it's pretty good.
Adam Anderson
I've lost a lot of weight and gained muscle, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm lonely with no friends to talk to, not even online...
Dylan Perez
Identify what it is that makes people not want to be your friend.
Maybe you have a shitty laugh. Or you talk about autistic shit. Maybe you talk too little. Probably too much. Identify the core issue and work on it. I had alot of issue speaking at the correct volume. What sounds like a perfect volume to my ears is more akin to a mouse whispering to others. So, I forced myself to speak what I thought was a little too loud which was actually just right.
You got this nigga
Jordan Bell
I'm in college though >chicken and rice and greek yogurt I'm pretty sure the convenience store nearby doesnt have any of that, the nearest grocery store is 30 min away, also I don't have a fridge in my dorm to store any of that, not to mention I don't even really know how to cook, and the only kitchen is on the ground floor so it'll be a hassle to have to always go down there and spend 20 minutes cooking, so I mostly just eat out, and I have no idea how to keep track of calories there.
William Cox
Made my pre-boot training rifle.
Wooden dowel 40 inches long with 2 weights on it.
8.6 lbs, about as close as I can get it.
Shit is getting real, lads.
Jace Walker
Hey /fat/ contest participants, are there any provable challenges you'd like to see as part of our journey, just for fun? I'm willing to elect a $10 gift card or something, but, ironically, these challenges would be totally independent of weigh-ins so that no one feels at a disadvantage for not participating. I was thinking a cooking-related challenge could be involved as well as a challenge using MapMyWalk (because you all should be doing *some* cardio anyways). If you like things exactly the way they are though or if you are against any tangible prizes, that's cool too.
Robert Hughes
Ate pizza for first time in a while grease and pepper flakes scourging my innards
Carson Cooper
How do I win over gym girls?
Hudson Green
I know that feeling, user.
Ethan Cox
Being alone is better than being around shitty friends who make you feel like shit. And there are almost no good people left.
Juan Mitchell
>Identify what it is that makes people not want to be your friend.
Me not wanting be friends with them. I yearn for companionship but when I'm actually around people I hate every minute of it.
