/fat/

Do waist, arms, chest, leg measurements.

40lbs down but im starting to fall of the wagon. 5'7, 175, not gonna make it. Eating chips right now

sorry, user. check your BMI to know for sure. plus, ratios like height to weight don't really matter too much. it's more about how you think you look in the mirror. you might have to lose until you go below the normal weight for a person your height before all the problem fat on your body goes away.

they are like 15 dollars on amazon

Thank you /fat/, I've lost 13 pounds in 5 weeks just by watching my calories and fasting. This week I've started jogging so I expect to see the weight loss pick up the pace. I was 236 on August 14, as of right now stepping out of the shower I'm 223. My goal was 200 by Christmas, and I'm really thinking I can exceed that now.

We're all gonna make it bros.

Throw the chips away.

I got a dope af glass digital one that actually tracks your progress and looks pretty nice too at Walmart for 20 bucks, if you're serious about losing the weight you should have that much cash to spare just from all the fast food you've been skipping.

Great work man. Keep it going.

To be honest user I just want to this fat belly I have, and maybe some on my thighs since they are pretty big can't wrap my hand around it.

great to hear. it really is this easy.

you'll have to get to a very low BF% in order for your stomach fat to finally go away. keep working at it. we're all gonna make it.

So you are saying I pretty much have to keep this diet for at least like a year then

at your weight and height probably not even half a year. just keep at it until you're satisfied with the way you look in the mirror, user.

Like I said I won't be satisfied till I lose this belly at least. I want to eat some ramen now but that shit has a shit ton of sodium.

It's ok to post nekkid fatty chest here?

You know... for progress....

fat fucks

As long as you're a man.

Did you make sure the scale is calibrated first?

Keep it up man, I was 6'6 310 in December, currently at 195, it's worth it in every way. You can do this, good luck

Who weighs themselves every day multiple times per day?

>tfw drink more then a gallon of water a day at work so I lose like 3 pounds every weekend and gain it back during the week

7.5 weeks in, have gone from 103kg to 97kg.

A little behind pace of 1kg/week.

Just trying to get back to 92kg, which is where i was at before I fell off the wagon.

Goal weight somewhere around 85kg.

App is Monitor Your Weight

>you "make it" physically
>tfw rest of life is still shit

Yeah I had some weights that way 19pounds exact and it picked it up as 19.6

Hi Veeky Forums

I started at 320 pounds, right now I'm at 250 in 2 Months, I think I'm doing good, keep It Up guys we are going to make It.

Shout out to the user who told me to add peanut butter into the protein shake. It makes it way bearable to drink.

>you "make it" physically
>still see yourself as a fat sack of shit

Take control of your life, one aspect at a time.
First step is physical.
Second step is mental.
Move outwards from there.

>able to cut out all sugary unhealthy drinks
>able to cut calories down
>still cant fight the urge to beat off twice a day
Maybe fapping is natural and can't be stopped.

>have kale shake with beet,chard,frozen blue berry,carrot,banana
>feel like superman
Jesus Christ,this is much better than coffee

When I lived with my parents I was too shy to ask for snacks, and they didn't buy anything I really wanted otherwise. If we ever got anything, I didn't want to waste it either, so I'd only have a small bowl each day. As such, I resorted to eating a lot of dry cat food. I'd fill up my shirt like a little pouch and carry a few handfuls up to my room and then munch on that for meals. It kind of tasted like the aftertaste of red wine, but the worst part is that since it amused me so much to be eating, and I was so "hungry," I would chew up the cat-food until it was soggy and pliable, and then spit it out into my hands and mould it into a ball, and take bites out of that.

i tried to quit weed, do no porn, and diet all at the same time. couldn't keep myself from jerking it on the reg. you gotta have at least some fun in life, right?

????????????????
Nigga what the fuck is wrong with you

Currently 6'6" 345lbs. Lost 6 lbs since Monday doing intermittent fasting.

I've tried to lose weight for the better part of 5 years now and I've only exploded into a lard ass. The main block for me is discipline/mental. For whatever reason I hit an invisible wall 3 weeks in and slip up, which turns into quitting, binging, then shame, rinse and repeat.

So my doc prescribed trokendi and phentermine for a 4 month course to help keep the cravings in check, boost metabolism, and break through that progress wall. There are a lot of side effects, but honestly the progress is good and it's helped pull my attention away from food so I don't mind.

>Checks between legs
Yes sir! I think I am a man.

But I'll post later. Too cold to get nekkid.

Got super sick and dropped 10 pounds.
Ate more to fill my gullet and gained 20.
Now I'm back down 10 at where I started.
Fucking hell, what a month.

I'm afraid my appetite is still lurking, I had it tamed up until getting incredibly sick.

I don't want this to be real life.

no fap is a meme

Can we ban these threads? This is a fitness forum, and has nothing to do with stuffing your face with big macs and brownies. What's there to even discuss?

>Yeah man, last night I only ate half a bag of family sized doritos instead of a full one.

Nice, you keep it up too. That's some great progress in such a short time.

Veeky Forumsness is not only about being fit, the journey is also a part of it.

>weigh 204 lbs down from 365
>2 weeks until huge family cookout
I hope I can still get under 200 lbs in that time. I keep eating homemade broth and it's apparently too salty.

Are you retarded? Its about fat fucks such as ourselves trying to lose weight and make it.

Is keto a meme or is it faster than calories in-out(though you obviously have to do that with keto too)? 2 weeks in and have lost 5 pounds, about 10 more to go but sick of blandish food and its almost debilitating to be hungry with keto than carbs. If its the way to go, any food suggestions besides chicken, pork, turkey, fish cheese, nuts and eggs? That or something to spice it up a bit

Good job lad, how long did it take? My starting weight was 380 and I'm only down to 358 but I've only been doing this shit for a month.

>Be sick.
>Unable to exercise so I'm only eating 1000kcal.
>Step on scale expecting water mass gain due to fluids + lack of activity.
>Down half a kg from two days ago.
83.7, love handles are almost fucking gone.
I have Klokov tier wide hips, so once I'm lean I'm probably gonna have to start frauding.

>tfw binged on cough drops

You can tell in this thread how many fucking losers are in here. You weigh 350 lbs and watch anime? Such fucking losers, I'd literally never even acknowledge this type of person in the real world. Trust me, even if you lose the fat, I can tell you have an embarrassing personality.

And that's ok. They lost the fat.
>He doesn't lift for an anime waifu

Just 1lb? wtf
I lost 11lb in 9 days on keto and fasting lol and that was after I've been on it for a month so it's not water weight.

I get a picture in my head of an overweight grown man by himself giggling with a bag of chips as he watches anime intended for 13 year old girls. I don't understand what is wrong with them, it's like they missed some sort of maturity phase growing up. They're the type of people I'd never let my kids around for sure.

Thanks, dude. It's been 15 months of active weight loss. For me, time seemed to fly by while I've been losing weight. It could go faster for you to get where I am since I imagine you're probably taller than I am.

Progress pics?
Genuinely curious

It's like losing weight is hard or something, and it's easier with support.

>I don't understand what is wrong with them, it's like they missed some sort of maturity phase growing up
I don't think it's hard to understand. Fat people are shunned and hated often not getting to experience a lot of things in their adolescence. Anime is an escapism and they latch onto what they grow up with and know.

Also, I think their waifu was from Idolm@aster and it's intended for lonely adults with no gf.

>tfw dont feel like lifting weights after doing cardio
One more day without lifting can't hurt r-right?

Most people do one or the other and alternate each day.

>keto and fasting
maybe he's just working out and being calm with his body, you mong

this. I consider cardio as leg day, so I'll do the regulars, then next day I do leg day like squats and calf raises, then the next day i do regulars again (by that i mean arms, chest, etc) and the day after, i do cardio.
Probably a shit system that you shouldn't follow to a T, but alternating will be helpful for you

Will my skin tighten up? Lost 60 lbs in the last 4 months and am concerned.

Oi m8 you from Connecticut?

Are you moisturizing, drinking a lot of water and actually working out?
Unless you have the worst genetics in the world or you're 70 years old, it should get better.

Thx

Can somebody give me a review on the program ive made up for myself
Monday- fasting & couch to 5k
Tuesday- fasting & starting strenght
Wednesday-Refeeding with fruit(2 meals most of the time) & c25k
Thursday- one big vegan dinner & ss
Friday- one big vegetarian dinner & c25k
Saturday- one big dinner with meat(i mostly try to eat carb free on Saturdays) & ss
Sunday- cheat day. I'm considering starting to swim on Sunday

I've been following this for about a month now and I'm feeling pretty good. I forgot to mention that I'm 194 cm and my starting weight is around 100 and something kg. I'm around 91-92 now, but I've been fasting this week

if it doesn't i'm going to need to get the most jacked fucking core and biggest ass of all time to take up all the skin.
20 years old, 6'3" at 198 CW 260 SW

Give yourself one cheat day every other Sunday until you've made serious progress.

I'll try, but I feel that the urge to binge would be far greater if it wasn't weekly. Also, what are your thoughts about me starting to swim. I want to do it, but I'm worried about burning myself out

I go 7 days a week, 9 times a week, with a total of ~3 hours of cardio a week, mostly medium intensity (4mph full incline walk and stairclimbers at 3-4 flights/minute)
I like swimming because it's low impact and relaxing but if you're feeling tired and exhausted give yourself some rest. You won't do yourself a favor by burning out.

It's literally my second day dieting and my fatfuck of a mom bought a fucking pizza. I complained about it to my brother and he just told to stop being so negative. Holy fuck lads, how I am suposed to diet living with people like this? How do you anons do it? The cravings are too much for me to handle, I'll either get crazy or eat the fucking thing and vomit it all after. What the fuck I am suposed to do???

>started gym barely able to do 15 minutes of treadmill intervals @10km fast 5km slow (1m fast/1 min slow)
>went today and decided to just set it to 10 kmh and keep going
>did 25 minutes, 4.15km all up
neat. almost at that 5k in 25 minute mark.

almost not fat.

I was in the same boat as you and then I moved out at age 20 just because of this and suddenly i lost 80 lbs
It'll never get easier either until you fully made it
Throughout my whole weight loss I had to hear comments from fat people about how my diet sucks because I was fasting and doing keto
And even on the last 20 lbs I still had visible fat and they told me to stop losing weight because all that's left is skin and that won't go away unless i get surgery

Anyways, what I'm saying is that even your own family gets jealous when you're making it and they're still the same lazy bitches they always were
Never give up and prove them wrong

Been cutting my calories big time the past month by literally just eating for fuel and only when super hungry. Working security at a super lax condominium fucks with my food addiction bullshit tho. Been tryin' to not give in but goddamn

I gave in tonight with some fucking McDonalds near my post. Goddamn it I need to bring light healthy snacks from now on. Makes me see my mental strength is fucking awful.

sup /fat/

>One study conducted by the U.S. National Institutes of Health showed that just 15 minutes spent in the cold can be the metabolic equivalent of a full hour of exercise. Shivering burns up to five times more energy than a body at rest, and even mild cold that doesn't cause you to shiver starts to burn through those brown fat stores, jumpstarting your caloric burn rate.

Winter is coming.

I've been freezing ever since I lost weight and i don't know how to survive the winter if I'm already freezing in the fall
Anyways, if freezing boosts the metabolism, what do thermogenic fat burners do that heat up your body?

You fuckers are on an anime website. NORMIES GTFO.

Feel free to read up on it, but it's basically quick energy to regulate your body temp. I dont really care, but it's obvious that heat burned off is expensive energy-wise. I'm not going to freeze my ass off, but I'll definitely be wearing t-shirts well into fall and avoiding jackets and blankets if it means cutting a few extra pounds with minimal effort over the course of a month.

Do cardio after lifting weights. You mong.

I'm fine with anime and watch it myself. I'm just stating facts that many people who watch anime are massive dorks lacking social skills.

Currently on day 5 of starving myself, getting closer to caving in. Think I'm just gonna start drinking Pepsi max so it's like I'm eating but without the calories

Calm down- it's a pizza. You're going to be making changes to your diet over the next few months that you want to keep up for the rest of your life. There is NO reason if you enjoy eating pizza that you have to cut it out entirely- portion control is something you need to learn.

You have one of a number of options:
1. Eat one/two slice/s of the pizza and fit it into your calorie goals for the day.
2. Avoid the pizza this time and eat something different.
3. Move out where you can control absolutely everything that comes into your house.

I live at home myself and you just have to accept that other people around you aren't dieting. Take control of yourself - what you shove in your mouth is YOUR choices, not theirs. Just because they decide to get an entire cake in doesn't mean you need to eat the entire lot.

Why don't you offer to help with shopping and get what YOU want in? Have you tried meal prepping and having pre-portioned breakfast/lunch/dinner in the fridge at all times so you don't have to worry about these things?

You need to start creating habits that will last you for a lifetime, and throwing your toys out of the pram because other people are eating high calorie food that you haven't been able to fit into your day is not a good start. Either make room, eat a sensible portion or skip it.

> brown fat stores

You guys have TINY brown fat stores- basic biology here. Brown fat is primarily there to keep newborns warm when they can't thermoregulate themselves. Adults mostly have white fat - which doesn't work in the same way.

You're cute
You have no idea what it means like living with fat people
They will drag you down even if you mean prep and they will find ways to ruin you

Also this guy gave in on his second day of dieting so what you're saying has literally no meaning to him as of yet

>Thought I was 20%-ish bf
>Measured via bodpod today, turns out I'm 16%

Wh-when do I leave /fat/?

this is going to be extra hard for you with enablers or sabotage around you.
you are going to need a lot of willpower for the first month till they learn that bad food is wasted on you. don't eat it let it rot tell them that you don't want it. physical separation, if they make some bait food, go away drink a glass of water eat skim yogurt to satisfy your real hunger. brute force the calories. first you burn them then you can eat them.

Hopefully when I weigh myself this Saturday I'll at be 320lbs, which puts me at the 40 pounds lost milestone.

Thingken the same thing my mane. It's a ways off for me but I started at 220 now I'm 198 after almost 3 months. It's not ROCKET FAST progress but it felt like it went by really quick.

my advice? Avoid the pizza. Don't sit down at a table that has an entire pizza. If someone hands you one slice, and their dont appear to be any other slices around, go for it and have your well portioned meal. I know myself enough to know that if I am in the vicinity of ready to eat food, I will eat it, I WILL EAT IT. I WILL EAT ALL OF IT (actually I've gotten better at throwing away truly gigantic meals instead of saving them for later, if you are mid way through a binge, ask yourself if you're still hungry and whether eating the food is enjoyable still, helps loads in turning a shit day to a crap day).

Willpower is a joke though. You need a way to minimize food from your life, somehow, you need to come up with a strategy. Your mom will keep bringing home pizzas, family members will keep having birthdays, long weekends, Fridays, thanksgiving, it never ends. It's been a long time since I've lived at home but my advice would be to make sure food isnt 'yours.' Tell yourself it's your moms pizza, or pretend she only lets you eat one slice, even if she says otherwise. If she offers you some, say you will just have one slice to her and form a contract with her, when she shovels another one onto your plate, say that you only wanted one slice etc. Say thank you for the single slice, be polite about losing weight, dont complain.
