>alcohol does not convert to fat. even daily beers probably would not make you gain weight. there is no fat in beer Alcohol makes you fat by proxy. It turns into acetate, and your body prefers burning acetate over fat, when available, so drinking alcohol has the same effect as if your TDEE was lowered.

Jonathan Green
Weighed in at 224 today, fellow /fat/s. Hoping to break 220s next week
Hudson Parker
Post your good feels, lads and lasses.
Just went to a local clothing store and bought dress clothes for my new job. Remembered how, at my largest, I'd do the same and want to hang myself in the fitting room.
Everything fit perfectly and I looked good in it. Like... really good.
Hudson Gutierrez
Are your legs really tiny or do you have a long ass torso?
Joshua Ross
Have had a haemorrhoid for the past week lads, haven't dared to work out in case I set it off and it's as painful as it is
Caught myself snacking several times throughout, it's like I pull out one leg of my routine and it all starts to collapse
I've got to go back to the gym tomorrow, I can't let this fuck everything up. It's starting to recede now so I hope I'll be OK
Nathan Morgan
I ASKED WHEN IT WAS DYING
anyway i can maintain my daily calorie goal eating frozen meals, but when i make my own food, i get bored of it and am more likely to binge. wat do?
Bentley Morris
i think it's just the angle. they might b tiny though. also the pic on the left was june 23rd? so more like two weeks ago actually.
Nicholas Russell
Post what you eat today.
Carter Nguyen
>tfw fell off my diet for a couple days, but still at my weekly goal >all dat sodium is probably gonna totally fuck with my weigh in on friday tho fugg
Aaron Young
841 calories.
Kayden Young
>tfw binging on fried chicken for a third day in the row
Adrian Ross
Eat frozen meals. It's not the end of the world as long as you get decent macros and protein and stay under your calorie goal.
Joshua Cook
How hard is it? See mine :
Joshua Roberts
Nice, man.
I haven't gone over my TDEE (~2200) since June 11th. May not seem like much, but it's a really good feel.
Ayden Nelson
Just roast meat in bulk and eat that for the next few days. You can eat veggies raw, as long as you like the taste, and if you're okay with getting less nutrients from them.
Chase Jones
Oh sorry I thought you get bored of the process of preparing food, and not of the taste of the food. Consider my post void.
Nathaniel Johnson
I posted a couple weeks ago that i couldn't sleep since i started dieting, that has changed recently, the simple trick is sleep earlier. I sleep well when i go to bed around 9-10pm, i can easily sleep 8-10 hours, any later and i just wake up after 5-6 hours of sleep for some reason.
Nolan Sanchez
Stop.
Matthew Rivera
If you treat alcohol like calories its not a big deal
Cooper Fisher
>three day binge
That's too long, guy. Once is a cheat, twice is a mistake, but three times is a habit.
Anthony Perez
Alcohol has calories. What do you mean?
Easton Bell
Do you know some good appetite suppressant ?
Brandon Price
carrots is mine. occasionally with Humus
Elijah Long
Caffeine ephedrine is the supposed god tier. I personally just try to limit my binge and make up for it by cutting even more. Like my normal is 1800 calories a day and I'll eat 1500 until I make up for the binge.
Jose Wright
nicotine
Andrew Wood
EC is pretty damn effective, especially if you don't have a tolerance. I'm on a 1500+ deficit and it definitely makes it more tolerable.
Jacob Campbell
What are the stats?
Ryan Reyes
Peanutbutter
Oliver Walker
Confess your sins.
Cooper Phillips
Are you worried about the heart attack and stroke risk?
Jordan Richardson
left is 208, right is 198. june 23rd til today.
Nicholas James
Pic related, my Rabbi.
>the ice cream sandwich hot weather Jew got me
Aiden Walker
Anyone else feel that when you make it you're still going to be a fat person?
I just don't have an off switch, my natural predisposition is just to stuff my face like a pig, my stomach is endless
Parker Murphy
My weight loss is slowing to a crawl.
Please help!
Jack Price
What's the app?
Jordan Cruz
Thanks guys, can't find ephedrine where i live so i think i will eat a lot of peanut buttered carrot with my coffee and smoke
Jace Phillips
Smoking will kill your gains, take up vaping
Matthew Davis
there is a less effective version called synephrine
Dominic Reyes
Bronkaid from walgreens, CVS, etc.
Henry Sanchez
...
Owen Hernandez
150 calories left what can I eat
Leo Morales
I thought the dreaming of food thing was just a meme but I had a dream last night about a big juicy burger....
Staying strong though, 3 eggs with two cocktail tomatoes in it will keep me until after my workout I, must not succumb to my fat tendencies!
Parker Turner
I think he means that some people say alcohol causes weight gain--it's a simple case of calories in, calories out.
Hunter Myers
>tfw ~2000 mg of sodium daily because cottage cheese is easier than cooking chicken
Is this bad for me? I eat like 5.5 pounds of the stuff weekly...
Camden Garcia
Ordered a medium pan pizza with extra cheese and sausage plus cheesy bread. Ate roughly half of it. Im disgusted with myself.
Gavin Peterson
2g of salt is nothing
Owen Johnson
fat fuck
Aiden Hall
Binges should only be a one day thing every couple of weeks and should be followed with a 24 hour fast.
STOP.
Robert Russell
anything 150 calories or less
Nathan Ross
The last sentence in the OP.
Dominic Jenkins
If you had just done a little better on that Saturday you would have made it brah. Good to see you restrained yourself on the Holiday.
Evan Foster
I've put on some muscle while losing 25lbs of fat (currently 172lbs with 5'11", around 16% BF) but it seems like I cannot lose more weight on 1800kcal, which according to calculators in OP is a 900kcal deficit. I think I track my calories accurately with MFP. Do I just suck it up and cut more? Can my metabolism be really that slow?
Mason Butler
Chew slowly and savor the food. Every time you take a bite you should be putting the fork/sandwich down. Did you know that you have taste buds on the bottom of your tongue and lips? Go ahead and try them out.
You should not put more food in your mouth until you swallow the first bite. it should take you 25 - 30 minutes to finish a meal. 10 minutes eating. 5 minute break. 10 more minutes eating. You need to activate the taste portion of your brain to feel full.
Most people eat too quickly. Or eat foods that do not satisfy like sugar.
Jace Howard
I take the food dreams as my cheat meals. I really enjoy them and they feel real enough. I don't wake up hungry so I might as well have actually eaten a whopper with large fries.
Easton Nguyen
>sleep cycle is fucked due to being unwell >feeling sick, tired and demotivated >don't want to prepare food other than my breakfast (today at 17:00) >order large fish and regular chips from takeaway - been eating properly for the past month >instant regret, tastes bad, feels bad, leave maybe 1/4 of it
Any ideas how many calories would be in something like that? No nutritional information is available but conservative estimates from googling reckon it'd be around 1,000 - 1,500
Benjamin Stewart
Jesus Christ. Next time go to Walmart and get a couple thin crust frozen pizzas. Eat both of them and still be under TDEE.
Adrian Mitchell
>172 lbs >1800 kcal is 900 deficit
not likely
Sebastian Gutierrez
>getting back in the gym after the 4th and having a shitty lunch
My fitness pal actually does help. Thanks, /fat/. It's just sometimes I have to have dinner with the family, or go along to a random restaurant and I have to guess really broadly what item that the app has catalogued is the closest to what I'm eating.
Now I need to do my 1k+ routine to make sure that I end the day on a good deficit.
Ethan Baker
Cheesus...
Parker Rodriguez
Yeah I ain't doing that shit, that's just conscientious eating, it has nothing to do with how I feel about food
Cooper Gonzalez
>1k+ routine
Justin Wilson
Cardio >cardio is hard
Zachary Hernandez
MFP has a bit of an overestimate when it comes to calories burned form exercise I think.
Carson Baker
It depends on whether he's really going for it and using the machines own readout or not. It's pretty easy to burn 800+ with an hour on a treadmill.
Carson Gutierrez
I use the machine's count. So maybe that's just as inaccurate, but it I'm not sure how worried I should be. It asks your weight, that's better than nothing.
>find something that does 250+ >repeat 4+ times
Bentley Hernandez
>Out grocery shopping with sister and mom. >Getting healthy shit while they're picking up poptarts, cheetos, and everything else. >Moms worried that my food will be expensive because its good for you, so I told her I'll pay for it seperately. Tfw I ended up getting enough for a couple meals at 20 bucks while they spent nearly 40 on snacks, sweets, and their supper.
Kevin Morales
I just have no friends and avoid most of my family. Makes holidays easier. Still yeah I got a while to make up for it.
Mason Allen
>binge days should be followed with a 24 hour fast. You're fucking retarded, this is how you get into a binge cylce.
Aaron Thomas
You need to eat some REAL food honey! You're gonna Starve on that "REAL" food.
Bentley Williams
How the fuck else are you supposed to make up for a 4,000 calorie binge? This shit is physics.
Cameron Lewis
NO AK TODAY ANONS
The 'exercise calories' estimates are from Strava via the concept 2 rowing machine.
Carter Edwards
You think fatties can run for an hour?
Ayden Smith
Just go back to your normal deficit and don't be a weak minded fatass.
Liam Miller
Not really. Just keep track of your blood pressure and lower the dosage if you feel like you're on speed.
Nathan Walker
I'm doing the math right now to make up for a 2550 calorie binge. I got it down right now to 2050 after two days.
The power is yours!
Eli Davis
So you can't go wrong with stir fryed chicken and vegetables, r-right?
Isaac Jones
Sure you can go wrong if you don't measure and put too much olive oil and load it with teriyaki. Plus rice is very calorie dense. If you have more broccoli than rice then maybe it is good. Maybe.
Aiden Morris
WTF I hate math now!
Jason Barnes
I just use chicken and vegetables, no rice. I use Teritaki though, is that bad?
Elijah Morris
Eat the vegetables raw and leave out any rice. Just cook the chicken in minimal oil and you're golden. I like to use hot sauce as it can spice up you whole meal without adding calories.
William Reed
There's nothing to feel good about. Until I stop being fat I can't stop looking and feeling less than a man.
Carter Torres
Is coke zero really that bad if i'm trying to lose weight?
Evan Cruz
>bacon mcmuffin this morning >bbq chicken wrap at lunch >brownie for dessert and still under 1200
how the fuck did I even get fat
Aaron Scott
Meal 1 - 300cal Meal 2 - 900 cal Meal 3 - 2000 cal - All white chocolate cookies ;_;
Chase Lee
Getting comments at work. It's taken 7 months but here we fucking go lads.
Dylan Johnson
No it's not. Caffeine improves weight loss. Also it tastes better than water and has only 2% of daily sodium.
Ayden Lee
I need to go back to not eating foods that taste good. Even plain potatoes taste too good and leads me to eating too much. I need to stick to beans and rice. Whatever jew who said "if it tastes good... SPIT IT OUT!" was right.
Xavier Moore
Typical delusional fatty.
Ayden Smith
I got some after 3 months, mostly involving you've lost weight are you sick, what's wrong?
>what's wrong? There's nothing wrong but i'm trying to kill my regular coke (sugar) addiction by switching it to water and occasional coke zero. At first, it tasted godly awful but now it's not bad actually, especially if it's cold.
Aaron Gray
This is my last 30 days of loss. Drink a liter of diet soda a day so it doesn't hinder excessively,
Jaxson Richardson
No, they asked me that, they think my weight loss must be due to some illness. I've told them it's not but they don't believe me.
Brody Harris
Lost 80 pounds, am pretty /fit. Can put up 1.5/3/3/4 for 1RM.
Have a qt gf I would have never have had the balls to approach when I was /fat/. Even though I still have a slight gut and some saggy skin around it, she makes me take my shirt off every time we fuck and mires tf out of my muscles.
feelsreallyfuckingoodman.avi
Carson Wood
Looking at pictures of my face from when I was almost 300 pounds at 5'9. I'm 196 now and still got around 50 pounds to go but I look so much better.
Nolan Diaz
>posting meals >staying under tdee >nowhere near the recommended amount of protein per lbm
>how did I ever get fat?
Ethan Lewis
CONGRATULATIONS
Being that height and having almost 100 lbs loss did you have any loose skin issues?
