First for loving lily

Can anyone guesstimate how much one scoop of this rice is? I figured half would be reasonable.

like 1 fiddy to 2 hundo

Bring back Wojack!

...

I never feel full. No matter how much I eat.

...

drink black coffee

Fucks with my sleep too hard.

Garcinia Gambogia

Stop eating carbs fatso.

If you can stuff your pie hole with steak, eggs and butter then seek professional help.

CONFESS YOUR CHEAT MEALS, ALL OF THEM

I eat keto. 10-20g net carbs per day.

Drink more water. I can't fathom going over TDEE constantly on keto. Seek help.

I bought a dinner consisting of a porkchop, broccoli, and carrots but I decided to get a Bacon Double Cheeseburger at Sonic instead.

I can't do this anymore, I am a fallen man.

I just want to enjoy what I eat.

Was 360 around a month ago, now 345.

What the fuck is wrong with my body /fat/?
I'm 5'11 and ive gone from 230 lbs to about 188 lbs and im planning to lose more. I feel like my face, arms, legs and tummy have improved a lot but my love handles and hips really havent changed a lot. I also have manboobs and im scared if its actual gyno
what do?

Try intermittent fasting? Then you can stuff yourself once daily.

You probably have to Go down to 80kgs, maybe even 75.

All the stuff you actually want to disappear is the last to go

Is that it? Just keep losing weight? I'm gonna be really happy if thats what I gotta do cause my goal is definitely 75-80 kg.

Homemaker your own burgers with lean meat, less toppings, and healthier buns/lettuce buns. There's definitely a middle ground here.

I'm in the same boat.

Went from 223 to 177 and STILL have some manboobs and love handles. Unfortunately it's the LAST place your body wants to give up for fat loss much like the thighs for women.

Sometimes I do one meal a day for dinner. But even after all my calories, I'm still wanting more food.

Part of it is cause you're raising your arms up in the air and sucking your gut in. If you let them droop naturally and let your gut hang out it won't look so obscenely disproportionate.

You sure?

I'm a trip part of the /fat/ weigh in thing....

I'm losing my mind right now, have been losing weight pretty well for months and have been dedicated to working out and eating right. Have made progress but this week has been the worst one in years. I'm at the point of needing comfort food and cannabis this Friday and Saturday

One more weigh in, and I'm going all out for the weekend, will be stuffing my face full and probably won't leave the house for days after...

I'm fucked up mentally right now, shit is breaking down on me and I don't know if I can continue

If you stick with it, it'll become easier to lower your calories (at least that's what I found, everyone of course is different). Also spacing out your food in the window you do have to eat also helps.

I didn't say you don't have big love handles, but you look slightly less freakish in this second one with your arms down so that you're not stretching out your torso. You're not sucking in that belly at all pal?

Actually get help for the problems you are having. Posting here and eating isn't going to help you deal, it's a band-aid for a bullet wound.

A cheat day, even a really bad one, here and there wont kill ya.

But you'd feel better about yourself and (probably) whatever situation you are in if you didn't just jump off the wagon for that long.

Am I /fat/?
>5'6
>145lbs
>hoping to at least leave skinnyfat territory in the next few months
I know what I need to do, I just can't get around to doing it. 99% of my problems are in my diet.

Slightly sucking in my belly in the first pic, none at the last
but thanks! I actually really appreciate it and makes me less anxious about my torso
These last pounds of unhealthy fat shall be gone

AND DON'T MAKE FUN OF MY HEIGHT FATASSES

You're on a cliff user.

Before you is a terrible drop. At the bottom is nothing but suffering. Down there you'll find the beetus. You'll find an early death. Down there people look at you as a lesser because you didn't have the self control to stop and the worst part is deep down you know they are right. At the bottom of this cliff is no gf and incel. Just like in real life, the fall doesn't even feel that bad. No one feels a damn thing when they jump off a building.

Until they hit the ground.

No are you going to jump off that cliff or are you going to fly. Soar aways from this shit. Throw out all the junk food you have in your house. Get control of your urges and leave the rest of ever fattening human race behind to become the man you always deemed you could be.

Today is the day you're going to make the choice. Undo all your work, embrace failure and become fat again or are you going to double down and make tomorrow the day you're going to work the hardest you ever had to reach your dreams.

Nows the time to choose user. Are you going to be the fatty who falls or do you want to be a fitizen who flys?

Why is measuring scoops and portions so tedious and annoying? I don't have a fucking scale to measure how much this chicken is. For fuck sake.

I may be fat but I'll never be a manlet

some roast beef, some chicken, a pizza...

You're skinny fat DYEL.

Now start lifting weights at a caloric defict and it'll do wonders for your body.

got to 188 then I started fucking around with meems. jumped back up to 210 over a month or so.

back on keto for the last 3 days, haven't weighed myself in around 7 days. Tempted to go a full week on keto before I jump back on the scale.

breakfast is like
230g egg whites
5 slices of bacon
.5 cup of sharp cheddar

at like 600 kcal-ish

Lunch
12-15 oz chicken breast
85g spinach
28g of green beans
20g of almonds

Dinner tends to be whatever I feel like. Last night it was shredded chicken, chorizo and ground beef with taco mix. Threw in like 2 oz of queso, ate pretty damn good.

thoughts? can i still re-make it?

Then buy one, you cheapwad. A digital scale is like $12.

bunch of fucking fruit, shrank my deficit to practically nothing. it was real good though.

The shortest manlet is taller than the longest bed ridden fat dude.

Remember that user.

Thats true
I can respect any manlet if they make an effort in life
fatties just dont

He looks a little swarthy. 5'6" might be the ideal height in his culture.

Sup my Veeky Forums bros,

Have to say... I READ THE FUCKING STICKY around Feb/March and I'm down 60 pounds since I started treating myself like an adult.

Totally changed up my diet, never snack anymore and I do a hour of lap swimming three times a week.

Feels fucking amazing man.

If you're done fucking around with memes then why did you get back on keto?

Holy shit

had some digestive biscuts earlier. Still went to the gym though if that counts for anything

5'7" been eating 1500 kcal a day for about 5 months. Went from 230 to 195. Need to cut a lot more. Can I stay at 1500 or is that too low?

You could go lower if you wanted.
Probably not less than 1000 calories a day though.

That's kinda low but if you're feeling fine keep it up
Okay boys it's been twenty minutes, it was quite the journey but I prevailed in the end, fucking fat pieces of shit get on my level

so this is the power of water fasting....

5'3'', 1200 cal allowance
kill me i just want sweets again, father.

I'm so glad I'm not a man/femlet, could not handle that shit.

Also pic related is a life saver

Are you four feet tall? WTF bro?

bread i need bread I NEED IT

When you feel seriously down and almost about to binge on absolute junk, go crazy on some low fat Greek yogurt. Keep eating it till you can't feel you face and your pain. Binging isn't great true, but at least it's Greek yogurt.

The bad days pass soon enough, user. Hope you feel better soon.

320 today, ^2lbs from yesterday, v5lbs from start.

No treadmill today, 37.7mi overall.

>tfw manlet powers distort and warp reality

>Three weeks of eating at a deficit + light cardio.
>Cold all the time, used to be hot.
>Low energy, lost my first Tennis Match Up all Summer
No one ever said making it would be easy brahs.

>weighed 112kg yesterday
>spent the day carrying around books and cleaning
>only had a potato and half a sausage for lunch
>weigh 113kg today

your weight varies up to 2-4kg day to day.

This shit needs to be in the OP

I hit a brick wall
it was so easy for so long, I was coasting and seeing my weight plummet
now i'm wrestling with my head every day for hours and hours
>you're losing too fast, eat something or you'll gain it back
>it's one cookie now or 20 later
>buy that pie ,it's on sale, you won't get another chance
>you're hungry now, you can make up the calories later

I really need something to do to keep myself busy because I'll go crazy if this keeps up
>

>cant get under 240

recalculate tdee and go from there, its not that hard man

Actually find a hobby to do. When you are out doing shit food is the last thing on your mind.

I've really enjoyed visiting museums recently. I get a lot of walking in and see a bunch of cool shit.

After dropping 15 lbs or so a month I've arrived here, but it's a bit liberating to eat 1500 calories a day instead of, say, 700 or less. I hope this skin tightens up when all is said and done, but I don't have high hopes desu.
Maybe losing the weight slowly will help...

If you are saying you have stalled, eat at your TDEE for a few days. It helps reset your metabolism. Then hit the deficit again. I stalled for two or three weeks, ate TDEE for a 3 day weekend, and was back on track

If you aren't lifting, start.

that's interesting
I went from 900 to 1800 too, but I'm having second thoughts since I've apparently gained 4lbs since the 14th
I know that won't be 4lbs of fat,but I've weighed myself twice every day since and it has never been even close to that number again

it's just getting to me, and I'm turning obsessive

>in process of losing weight
>start learning more about excess skin after not even entertaining that idea at all
>now don't even want to lose weight anymore because I'll look like a deflated balloon and there is nothing I can do to make it go away

Why the fuck didn't anyone warn me about this

>nothing I can do to make it go away

You didn't learn much, apparently.

dude, it tightens up. just lift and like 99% of it will tighten up and whats left probably wont even be fuckin noticeable at all only time you gotta worry about it is if you're some fuckin blubber landmass like boogie

As soon as I upped my calories (one or two weekends of eating maintenance aside) i gained four pounds but have since lost it in my morning weigh-in after a couple of days. Been bouncing between 207 and 212 for a while but it's looking like i'm a lot closer to 207.
yeah, i'll start lifting once i go back to school. Am looking into starter routines now. Gym is open from 6:00 to midnight so I should be able to find a sweet spot to slip in and make a fool of myself.
Hope you're right and it's only something older people and the morbidly obese have to deal with.

I dropped started at 310 and down to 190 and I don't have it tghat bad

Okay that gives me some hope. I started at 6'0" 290ish lbs, and while I was obviously obese I don't feel like I looked like a blimp like some other fat people, I think I wore the weight well. I am about halfway to a normal BMI and I am not seeing too drastic skin sag, just a little in the arms but I hope by doing what you say it will help eliminate it.

I was just terrified I was gonna look like some people like the obese to beast guy who looks terrible, but I think his height and starting weight were pretty different from mine and he looked way fatter.

>go to supermarket to buy healthy snacks
>refuse free samples of both chocolate and chips when offered to me
>leave with my yogurt and muesli

I have ascended beyond the mortal coil of unhealthy snacks, BEHOLD!

This shit shouldn't be allowed anyway, no wonder my country is almost as fat as America.

drink lots of water, take care of your skin.

it will naturally go away on it's own, however if for some bizarre reason it becomes a big fat mess, you can have it surgically removed

nobody is getting fat on 2 grams of chocolate
and your newfound willpower may not last forever

just.. don't get carried away
that's how people get complacent

>take care of your skin
Assuming you mean eating right, getting sunlight, or do you mean oiling up like a spartan before battle?

drink lots of water, eat right.

Same, it fuckin sucks.

Nice, man.
6'3" at ~208 down from ~260. 20 years old if that matters.

>I dropped started at 310 and down to 190
Dude, what?

For how long did you do this?
Months? Years?
And how do you curb junk food addiction?
I'm 280 and I need to cut down. I stopped drinking sugary shit and went only to water and 2% milk, occasionally going for Muscle Milk because my job's mildly physical.

I'm also eating omelettes and chicken now because A, cheap, and B, I hear both are healthy. Took me a few days to get used to, but my cravings are killing me.

just realized how poorly I worded that, I started at 310 and dropped to 190 and I don't have it that bad I meant. its really not something I worry about.

took me a little over a year, I just threw out all the garbage food in my house and the desire to binge on trash was completely gone forever, just started replacing everything with vegetables full fat dairy and meat

I've teetered just under 200 pounds for a while. Got down to a little under 190, but I still have a gut that I want to get rid of. Hopefully, I can get down to 180 in a couple of months.

ok lord, let me preface this:
i ate a weed brownie
I figured why not because i've never done it before, keto can stop for a couple days
here's what i remember eating while stoned:
5 fig newtons
huge bowl of cereal
half a bag of family sized doritos
chicken breast with buffalo ranch
4 chocolate granola bars, put together with peanut butter in the middle
half a bottle of bird dog peach whiskey
forgive me

Eating avocado and almonds helps quite a bit with suppressing appetite, and I know for me that painful hunger and access to junk foods was my downfall so getting rid of the bad foods and eating stuff that is very filling will help with your cravings I think. I'm sure there are other foods but these two work very well for me, totally suppress my appetite, just find something you like and can realistically eat every day.

iktfb
I don't even enjoy food any more
I'm either starving myself on rabbit food or I'm disgusted and ashamed of eating junk

How do you all feel about pork rinds? I've heard some good things, but is it more than just hype?

>I still have a gut that I want to get rid of

Pretty much everyone who has hit their "goal weight" has said this, because people usually put their goal in the mid to high end of a healthy weight for their height. But to get rid of the fat, you need a low body fat % which means a lower weight.

>took a drug known for increasing appetite

You learned a lesson, bud.

>tfw started off day good with a healthy breakfast
>O'Brian, 3 eggs, Sausage
>tfw fucked up launch and pigged out at Whataburger by getting a Whatadouble with cheese, jalapeno, and bacon.
>Fuck it more with making it large and getting a shake instead of a drink.
I want to an hero after eating it.

I eat them sometimes as a snack, sometimes bread chicken with them. not something id eat every day though, maybe once every few weeks

I think it's a meme food consumed by people following a meme diet. It's fucking gross and unhealthy for you, salty as shit too.

>Pretty much everyone who has hit their "goal weight" has said this, because people usually put their goal in the mid to high end of a healthy weight for their height. But to get rid of the fat, you need a low body fat % which means a lower weight.

By all the BMI guides I've seen, I'm still well within the overweight range, so I'm thinking a real goal weight will at least be down into the 170s.

That's good, but don't be bummed if you find you have to go lower to make the gut and moobs disappear.

And start lifting if you haven't yet. Keep working hard dude.

I think keto permanently killed my appetite. I went to OMAD eating regular non keto food recently but I don't ever feel hungry still. It's pretty fucking awesome but it seems abnormal.
