who else on that 1500 calorie life?
Ian Thomas
how many days in?
Aiden Parker
Time to do wall push ups fatties, roll
Josiah Wood
>beer
you srs. ethanol metabolism slows down fat metabolism
roll for proper pushups
Jayden Price
>wall pushups
no thx, will roll though
Alexander Moore
it's a marathon not a race, 1500 cals is 1500 cals however you wanna slice 'em.
Hunter Torres
tfw been cutting for so long (over 8 months tracking calories daily) , that dieting has becoming your new normal
Charles Hill
didn't know that /fat/ can do regular push ups, nice
Eli Jenkins
its not that.
the liver proceses both ethanol and fat. the enzymes required for both are similar, meaning when its processing ethanol and the metabolites, it cant process any fat.
so while the body is getting rid of ethanol, you arent fat burning.
Christian Edwards
Been doing it a month. It never gets easier for me.

>you srs. ethanol metabolism slows down fat metabolism but muh cico
James Wood
im only 108kilos lol.
Thomas Hernandez
Yep.
I don't know what happened, but my 250~ day streak got erased from MFP.
If anything it just motivated me to track it even better.
Xavier Walker
I was tired and got taco bell last night after work. Put me over my calorie limit and I woke up feeling like shit. Make it right father
Eli Hughes
pls
Sebastian Bennett
>First morning without coffe
Asher James
seems like they're not working at the same time though.. When I'm awake, actively drinking, I'm pissing every hour, so that would be the 'ethanol', and then I sleep and my body takes care of the 'fat'.
Ryan Moore
Well i forgot to lift while bulking so i ended up with weak dyel arms
Asher Gray
I've been eating like shit the last little bit. I've started biking to work (11km each direction) but I've only been able to do it once a week. I want to change but I've been so weak recently.
Ethan Rogers
i try to follow things that scientifically make sense. so for me its a combo of cico and metabolism since i figure caloric intake and body metabolism are the two things that matter most to weight loss.
speaking of which, any non-broscience metabolism tips?

user, for some reason, I haven't drank coffee or tea for like a month now. And I don't know why. It just so happened that I don't feel like it anymore. I'm glad I did, I used to be a heavy drinker (at my worst 2-4 cups of coffee a day + 5-8 cups of tea a day). Now I just drink water. You'll be alright, just keep occupied and don't think about it. At least for me, I didn't feel a need for it maybe because I simply forgot about it.
Charles Evans
Did you do your 78 proper push ups, fatty?
Luke Moore
Jesus Christ I hate this fucking depression. Shit just hit me and I end up being drunk for most of the day. I mean, at least I never go above my TDEE but it's still fucking horrible.
Jack Reyes
I think my depression is why I'm always so tired.
Liam Flores
you guys should ask for an endocrinology report. Could be hormonal, like a thyroid problem or adrenal fatigue. Good luck.

>plateaued this week >remained at a constant 231.6 despite sticking to diet >monday weigh in drop 1.0 pounds >today weigh in drop 1.6 pounds >finally cracked the 230 barrier Yay I guess? Anybody else experience this?
Leo Cooper
I plateaued for 2 weeks. My own fault tho. Finally lost a kilo this week.
It's a marathon and not a sprint. The way I see it.
Daniel Martin
Its retarded how much more concerned I've been with muscle than weight loss. Still losing weight but I'm madder when I can't add more weight in the gym one week than of I lost less than I thought.
Being physically stronger is becoming more addictive. Feels better too.
Aaron Carter
Thank you. I've already had that done. I'm fine if you look at the data/blood work. I haven't checked testosterone, which might be an issue, especially since I haven't been horny and have had some trouble staying hard during faps. I'm too young for it to be a vascular problem. Might be related to my fatigue/depression. Not sure.
I don't drink much, I eat well, not even overweight anymore, exercise, have a good sleep schedule. I donno.

My values are perfectly normal, I just don't see my life going anywhere as everything I touch ends up turning to shit no matter what.
Joshua Lopez
Started lifting again after not lifting at all for who knows how long (over 6 months). Just chin ups. I have a really nice set of cables that anchors between the crack of your door. Really works the shit that the pull up bar can't. One day the anchor tore and 50 pounds of cables flew directly into my face. Now I am too scared to use them.
Nicholas Ortiz
Haven't heard a single story where these meme door bars/cables did not shit the bed.
Get a stand alone rack for your garage or hit the gym.

I feel sick lads. My head aches, and I feel like I'm hungry but im nauseous at the idea of consumption. Also I don't want to cook anything. Guess it's time to kill myself like Veeky Forums always told me.
Brody Sullivan
We need more details, user. Are you intermittent or water fasting? If so for how long? Have you been supplementing? Do you have electrolytes, or bone broth available? If not, you're going to have to break fast. Feeling a bit of fatigue is normal, but feeling sick is not.
Aiden Garcia
>skinny fat
>slight man boobs and low ab spare tire
>no puffy nipples
is it gyno or just residual fat?
Caleb Nguyen
Look up what fucking gyno is. If it were gyno there would be actual breast tissue; usually a larger, pressure sensitive lump behind the nipple
William Sanchez
every person on this board has gyno apparently
Aiden James

less fat than me ;_;

drink some coffee I'm a ketofag and I fookin love coffee with half and half and coconut milk fucking half and half has less carbs than reg milk ! stop drinking sips , they kill
Austin Anderson
i ate a bowl of leftover mutton biryani today. tried so hard to avoid it the previous night, but gave in today.
Zachary Davis
Not fat at all.
For people that seem to give a shit about their physique, they'll cycle anywhere from 10% (extreme) to 20% (lacksidasical)
Ethan Martin
deciding between a bowl of quakers porridge and a turkey sandwich
the porridge is more filling but that turkey needs eating ASAP
which is the priority?
Thomas Bell
also i feel like i have a confession coming up for tomorrow. i made a mississipi mud pie for my mother's birthday, it's in the fridge right now. managed to make the entire thing without licking spoons and shit. but i know the moment we take it out, i'm gonna give in to all that sugar and butter.
Caleb Perry
That's not super bad as long as the portion wasn't massive and you kept it in your limit. Unless you're a ketofag, in which case you should kys anyway.
Angel Rogers
Porridge for lunch, turkey for dinner?
Colton Martin
it's 1730 I go to work in an hour so very likely my last meal of the day fuck it, that turkey will keep for another day, I need carbs
Lincoln Rodriguez
You can't have a sugar free sip on keto?
Thomas Sullivan

Alexander Harris
How bad is a lamb, feta cheese, tomato, cucumber sauce, lettuce Gyro?
I haven't eaten anything else today but I feel pretty full from this thing. It wasn't very big and the takeout I got it from was just some random stand so they didn't have nutritional info. It was about as long as a cellphone and like eh 3 inches tall, more veggie than lamb.

Cameron Miller
Did you calculate your TDEE and eating at least burning 500 cals under it? If you haven't been keeping track of this, then you fucked up and are probably still eating like a horse
Michael Mitchell
...
Lincoln Carter
Yep. Went from 234 plateau of 2 weeks to suddenly 230.
Owen Collins
Why is it -500 calories a day? Why not 300 or 700? Why is it not dependent on the TDEE?
Dominic Ortiz
It takes more than a month dumbass. You've been fucking over your body for years. Give it time.
Lucas Long
>(Large)
Cameron Adams
big difference wouldn't you say?
Charles Brooks
It's just an easy rounded estimation.
They say a pound is equal to 3500 calories, so if you eat at a -500 deficit for 7 days, 7x500=3500, which is a stable progression of losing a single pound a week.
Carter Reyes
What if you eat at maintenance
But you workout a lot and throughout the week you end up burning much more than 3500..
William Hernandez
That's the whole point. Congrats, you're gonna make it brah
Xavier Murphy
You eat more because exercising makes you hungrier, assuming you don't count calories. If you "think" you don't eat more, but haven't actually recorded your calories, then fuck off. If you do count them, then increase your deficit and ignore the bullshit numbers online TDEE calculators tell you.
Michael Rivera
>What if you eat at maintenance That's assuming you've been eating at maintenance, which is doubtful.
Connor Long
>those tits
Lucas Phillips
That's how you get meme yourself into not losing weight while putting in a lot of work.
Diet is the most important thing, exercise supplements diet.
I had the same mindset for the first month or so and all I did was waste time and energy
Carter Long
frankly, tracking calorie intake is something that basically every single human should do. there's no downside to it and it's not hard
frankly I think our health standards, at least in America, are all kinds of fucked up. there's no benefit to letting your bf% exceed 10-15% and if you don't immediately take action to get down to that range once you've exceeded it, it just makes the process of getting back down longer and more arduous. better to track the calories while you're at low bf% and never let it get high, right?
and yet I feel like there's substantial social pressure (especially from family, ESPECIALLY from obese family members) against counting calories and having a carefully planned diet, as if it's annoying to other people, or vain or something. can anyone relate?
Levi Sanders
Sounds like it'll be slow moving progress, but just do what works for you.
Sometimes I'll eat at maitnence and try to lift heavier, other times I'll eat 1k deficit and try to lift even heavier than before.

Andrew Allen
My sister bitches at me for making multiple meals at once and storing them in the fridge, even though all she does is make a shit ton of food and just leaves it in the fridge until it expires.
She's also the only one in the house who drinks yet the fridge is constantly full of her booze.

Dropped all the water from MEPS though, which is nice. Back on straight fat loss.
Parker Thompson
yeah but a hippie convinced me that chemicals in sips kill
Eli Gomez
They probably aren't great for you, but we're all going to die anyways, enjoy the sips.
Ayden Rogers
Is it normal that I can't do a pushup? I'm 6'1 and 210 lbs of pure fat. Never exercised after age 7. My dad always tells me to do push-ups but I can't do a single one. My core is very weak and I'm usually dead tired after a day of college. I'm also a wristlet if it matters.
Logan Nguyen
Nothing today father
Andrew Cook
does anyone have that wojack where hes asleep dreaming of being fit?
Ian Howard
my weight in the morning when I'm dehydrated seems to go down (albeit slowly) week by week, but at any given point during the day it shows the exact same number it has been doing for the past month
which would be good if I was trying to maintain but I'm not
Jaxson Barnes
Weigh yourself after the morning piss before drinking/eating anything, thats the weight you track
