Anons who live with other people, how do you manage to count calories? I don't make half of the meals I eat, so I'm unable to count accurately.
Nolan Myers
>I don't make half of the meals I eat, so I'm unable to count accurately. I just assume the calories to the bigger side. You can google basic ingredient calories and guess proportions.
Andrew Evans
I mainly log every ingredient individually. Guess proportions, and then add 25% to each. Assume everything has more salt and oil than you think.
Hunter Barnes
just water fast for 3 weeks, then do IF 23:1 one meal a day for another 3 weeks and bam, your cut is done and you're lean as fuck. not hard
Hunter Lee
>water fast for 3 weeks christ wtf
Grayson Edwards
who else /FeelingDownTheyDidn'tStartLivingHealthyBefore/ here?
now that i'm losing weight and looking better, I feel a smidge of regret that i didn't do it earlier. weird thing is i don't even regret things much. it just requires being conscious and somewhat committed to the general downward trend.
already 21. only one more year of college, i could have spent three college years feeling comfortable and confident in my own skin. how much that would've changed my life. I could've been more social, i could've been more attractive to women, i might've gotten the romantic and sexual attention i so meaningfully crave sometimes.
i guess i should be grateful i started it now at least. anyway, thanks for reading. please like, comment and subscribe.

Everytime I wake up and see how much loose and nasty lookin my skin is getting, I just ask myself "why did I ever let it get this bad"

I've been cutting for 2/3 weeks and haven't lost any weight. Im 6' 190lb and cutting on 1800cal, how haven't I lost any weight?!?! I'm going to cut down to 1700 and see what happens. If not i may just stop calorie counting and just hit the gym like a normie
Brayden Hall
>just water fast for 3 weeks
Aiden Nelson
1800 cals is WAY too much. Your TDEE is likely around 2000, so it's no surprise that you haven't seen many results yet. Cut down to at least 1400 a day, maybe even 1300. And make sure you are always overestimating your calories instead of underestimating.
Isaac Davis

Austin Williams
>girlfriend's birthday was yesterday >only went over 250 calories after 6 clean weeks Only feel a little bit bad
Owen Hall
pretty much
Gabriel Foster
I'm going to set my target for 1500, are you sure that isnt too low. Most TDEE calculators put me at around 1800/1900

REEEE why cant I lose weight, I'm going to starve my self for a month if thats what it takes.
Jackson Nelson
Show your calorie tracker results
Lucas Russell
after the first 2 days the hunger is completely gone and you don't even need to worry about food. I actually forgot about food entirely, might have actually added on a day or 2 of water fasting had my brother not asked me what I'm eating for dinner one night.
keep working out, vitamins, saltwater, you are set for 3 weeks of no calories as long as you have body fat to get rid of.
Landon Wood
This sounds like a great way to rubberband back into an unhealthy weight
Lincoln Morales
>fast for 3 weeks >start eating again at new maintenance >don't gain any fat ?
Nolan Mitchell
should i eat oats on a cut? they seem to have lots of calories but i'm tired of eating poultry, eggs and fish for proteins. tdde is about 1500 allthoug i rarely eat more than 1300 to compensate for margin of error. 176cm and currently around 69kg.
Daniel Flores
i think he's more talking about /fat/ties with bad food habits. they might go back to eating well, well above their tdee after reaching their goal weight.
i feel it's more about developing a reasonable and healthy relationship with food, instead of bouncing between two extreme food habits.
Levi Cox
Glad you came back. Good work.
Samuel Davis
god damn living with my parents they want me to eat shitty food, i have already fasted for 3 days, cant imagine being able to keep this up for 3 days without them calling a therapist because I have a "eating disorder".
Fuck them, if it wasnt for them feeding me shitty food my whole life I wouldnt have to starve myself.
Levi Edwards
Oats fill you up. Just measure carefully. They're like the only thing I measure.
2 cups+1 scoop whey is God tier.
Ian Young
I dont understand how parents can "fatten" you up? I put about 80 lbs when i was in college but that was on my own account.
Brody Edwards
oats are goats laddie. the complex carbs really fill you up. Cook up oats+milk+pinch of salt. Cut some banana in it maybe. Combine with protein shake and black coffee, and holy shit its the best breakfast.
Ethan Parker
Too low would be eating anything less than 900-1000 cal a day. Do at least 5 minutes of research. And even if you do add in exercise, don't count those calories. Exercise calories are only insurance for if you accidentally log wrong or fuck up later in the week
Leo Hernandez
Down to 251 from 288
All lifting and clean eating, no fads or fasts

Charles Lee
So i've tought that'd be plain retarded even though i've already done a booze only fast (not really a fast and had a minimal amount of non-carbs food every few days) a few years ago due to punk rock and lost 30 kg in 4-5 months.
ok thanks guys, will make sure to meassure carefully. and yeah i was planning to put some berries and banana in them. nice.
Landon Bell
>dating a chad bf you can probably know pretty early on if you're the type that matches well with chads and stacies. pro-tip: if you're on Veeky Forums, theres no point. find a good bf thru common hobbies. that or arranged marriage is the only solution.

Michael Fisher
So technically Kaz won his match-up again Glitch, but as Kaz has official Made It and is the first legendary figure of this contest, he's ascended to godhood.
Instead of giving the next person a free win against Kaz I am opting to do 2 things. 1. Glitch moves to the next round 2. Kaz is, instead of 'Made It', now 'First of the /fat/'
First of the /fat/ is an arbitrary term as I'm sure a lot of you have made it... but I don't care about you, just the amazing people in my contest.
Anyone who makes it subsequently will Make It. But none of you will ever be First of the /fat/.
All of that established, I'll drop this first update. I still need weigh-ins from - Duna (Required) Rainman FastingAnon (Required) Otter (Required) Mochii Knight of Manlets BigBahamianCock (Required) Imouto (Required) HellsChef Mick Kiko Tejas Fag (Required) Oats (Required) Max (Required) thiccness (Required) Diesel (Required) Urdnot Grunt (Required) Big Red (Required) s33kn2br3b0rn (Required) Kunf (Required) BIG CUM (Required)
I'll drop another update in 6 hours as its still early in the day but yeah. Happy cutting, party people.
they cook dinner and won't let me cook my own because "it's too expensive" so I have to eat there shitty excuse for food, they always make it at a ridiculous time like 10-11 pm which means If I eat lunch I have to come home and wait for them to cook a shitty dinner which usually results in me snacking on shitty food they buy. They have no idea about healthy food, my Dad tried telling me that cheese is healthy and was annoyed when I refused to have any on my food because "the calcium is good for you, and you need it"
I should move out, but the reason I chose to commute to university is I need to save money.
Matthew Powell
I've been back into lifting and occasional cardio for 4 months now. My powerlifts are looking pretty good, but I still need to drop more weight. BMI is at 27% right now.
I do.
Julian Gomez
thinking about joining a boxing gym but idk if the beginner drilling routines (or whatever stuff they will make me do) are too rough or if they will take me seriously at all. was looking at martial arts and pure pugilistics interest me more than grappling.

Nathaniel Jackson
Water retention. I ate around 5,000mg yesterday (along with some sugar alcohol) and jumped 3.5 lbs.
Luckily most of it has dribbled off now, but it was still a kick in the pants.
You're a moron and need to go to a QTDDTOT so they can mock you there too.

Alexander Gray
5'5 160lbs and just ate two slices of cake. Haven't gone to the gym in months. Where do I find the willpower to not eat everything and stay dedicated to lifting? Every time I eat or don't go to the gym I feel like absolute shit.
Camden Barnes
I cook my own food and control my own diet; otherwise you're going to just have to find out all the ingredients and measurements and that'll be a pain in the ass.
Lucas Jenkins
Keep yourself busy with either a hobby or work. If a fat fuck like me can do it then your skinny fat fuck ass can too!
Aaron Cook
thank you i was planning on weighing myself tommorow but i'm gonna wait until sunday.

>1800 is too much >Citation needed
Nigger I lose weight eating 1800calories a day and I weigh 68kg at 5'8. 1500 is way too little.
What are you eating to lose weight? How accurate is your calorie counting? Have you tried reducing your carb intake and replacing it with fibrous veggies instead?
Colton Stewart
scale hasn't moved one bit.
198.2

You're a champ apple. Thanks bruh

Mochii 293.6 Surprised I didn't get wrecked more for freedom day, I'll take it
Wyatt Morgan
>1500 is way too little
maybe because you don't have a fat reserve to take from, skeleton boy
Jackson Wood
1800 seems rather high, gonna be a long slow cut which is fine if you just keep that shit in mind. Don't go under 1500, exercise more if you still can't lose weight at that calorie level for several weeks.
Christopher Sullivan
Fuck off.

James Roberts
3 and a half months. 278 down to 250, I just want to lose another 30 or 40 pounds. I want to get down to 12% or lower for the first time in my life. The towel makes me look a little better, but can anyone give me a bf% estimate, calculator has me right around 25, so 35 pounds should put me right where I want.
Tyler Adams
Three days is nothing. Try three months and see how you end up.
Nicholas Allen
>that tattoo why?
William Robinson
nice gyno
Brayden Diaz
Congrats on the victory, cum. I was at 208.2 when I first provided my weight, but I rounded to 208. One way or another, you win. My 5 day plateau at 208.2 was finally broken, and I'm quite proud of my weigh in. Go on to victory, comrade!
Camden Phillips
Tell them you are trying to be healthy, and be nice about it, but basically tell them to fuck off. They can't force you to eat.
Cameron Turner
Well there you go, you can't let your diet and nutrition be in someone else's hands if you truly care about it.
Christopher Thompson
knight of manlets 187.2 only 0.2 difference from last week, right on tournament day isn't that great?
Nathaniel Taylor
Cheer up user, you've only just joined the adults club. If you're fit physically and psychologically now, then you'll be married with kids before you know it.
Julian Gonzalez
Been plateauing a lot lately. Every third pound takes a month to work off it seems. I plan to be 110-130 and then work up muscles. Right now I have to rely solely on diet.
Thomas Martinez
bf % is irrelevant when you are that fat. once you get down to a healthy weight and start getting lean and seeing abs you'll get more accurate estimates. to me it seems like you are at 30 though
Henry Green
Sounds like you're making excuses. If you don't want the food they cook, don't eat it. It's not that they aren't letting you cook your own food, they just don't want to buy it. So, instead of complaining to strangers on a Taiwanese horse tail braiding forum, get a fucking job and buy your own shit.
By the way, I'm just talking shit, and my parents buy my healthy food.
Asher Lewis
>you'll be married with kids before you know it oh man, thats literally exactly what i want man. thanks for giving me some solid hope user. screencaping your reply, so i can always remember you
Gabriel Rodriguez
Holy shit, according to these scales I used to use, I lost 10kg and passed below 130kg. It's grandma's scales, I used to drop there often, bought my own scales now. Not the same conditions as usual either (weight myself first thing on mondays when I wake up), not this late in the afternoon.
Jacob Young
how quickly would you start feeling like shit if you were to consume and burn calories at the same rate? i.e taking in 1600 calories and burning the same amount per day?
Benjamin Hernandez
>255lb 5'8 >get depressed cause waifu left >400 cal a day, oatmeal, fish, vitamins, adderall, fuck ton of water/tea/diet dr pepper. >sedentary life of a web dev, only exercise is walking the dog for 10 minutes + stretching intervals >"holy crap dude that's fucking dangerous" - Test BP and Sugar everyday (I live with a diabetic who has that shit) everything is fine. Literally the only negative side effects were on a day where I actually decided to lift a bit, I was sore for 3 straight days >Ate some wendys for the first time since I started dieting. Couldn't even finish what would normally have been a small meal for me, it ended up my only meal of the day because I just wasn't hungry even on that 'binge' I'm was half of my maintenance. >It's been a little over 2 weeks and I'm 232
Is eating the biggest meme there is?
Brayden Martin
Do you mean through exercise? Because most people burn that much through just living.
Jacob Parker
>three month fast
actually no, they complain about the electricity bill so I cant make my own meals, everyone has to eat the same thing. I do sometimes not eat but my favorite hobby is cycling, I don't know if you have tried to do that on a 3 day fast.
Henry Cooper
>i don't want kids
Cameron Mitchell
literally stop eating
Ethan James
yeah my bad, poor wording, all 1600 calories burned through exercise.
assuming you get all the nutrients your body needs, would you be okay? im kinda stoned and have a lot of freetime to exercise (like 4 hours a day)
Luke Roberts
You said nothing about fasting. Starving doesn't have to mean fasting. Either way, three days isn't enough to expect extreme weight loss.
So, use the job I advised you to get and give them a little extra money. I don't know your life, but there is always some way around any situation.
I enjoy biking as well. I can't remember if I cycled on one of my longer fasts, but I have on a seven day fast.
Grayson Young
