I gain 2kg and lose 2kg for more than one month now.
I will go back to what was working. Omad or IF
I lean towards omad

/fat/ survey: which of the following are you doing? >lifting >cardio >dieting and how are they working for you?
Evan Watson
>mfw my parents have awoken to the power of keto and now only buy meats, veggies and healthy fats for the house (saving me hundreds of dollars in groceries).
I'm finally gonna fuckin make it.
Julian Thomas

Ian Gutierrez
cardio and dieting for me.
Jaxon Perry
Rate pls
Gavin Ross
lifting and cardio with calorie counting.
I'm seeing gradual results and really immediate results when I'm super strict with it.
I'm not getting to the gym as much as I'd like but weight has been on a constant downwards trend and I'm steadily making endurance gains.
I'm not gonna lie it feels really good, sure I may not be making super fast results but I've genuinely made a shift in lifestyle and mindset which I think is 100% sustainable.
planning to get into rock climbing and going /out/ once i lose a bit more weight.
Jordan Gutierrez
WHILE YOU DIET HARD I EAT PIZZA AND FUCK STACY
Chase Barnes

Lucas Adams
Fokken nice brah, face gains? How long did it take?
Elijah Gonzalez
All three at once. Erryday
Daniel Ramirez
dubs of excellence, also good job, did you make facial gains as well?
Nathaniel Ortiz
Pretty fucking good, bro. Weight difference between your first and last picture?
Face gains is like the first thing i got from losing weight, i had babyface before now it's just a skinny babyface, nothing to look at. Took about one and a half years, i fell off the wagon few times.
Leo Richardson
231 and 165 pounds
Josiah Brown
Pls post dude, the hope that I don't have to look at this face in the mirror is the only thing that drives me
Justin Evans
For me it was the same. You see improvements in the face first.
Just keep on shredding weight and you'll here comments about your face.
Nathan Sanders
You've gotten alot better, buddy. Now you've just gotta bulk up and you're golden!
Brandon Stewart
I'd just like to vent
A few years ago when I was nearing on 300 pounds I would communicate my dismay to people and the answer was pretty much always the same
>dude you're not fat >lmao you look fine >wtf are you going to develop an eating disorder?
And these people weren't HAES morons either. Some of them were in great shape. Most were average. Only two people I can think of were honest with me.
I feel pathetic because I let myself believe them. Yet I was medically obese. Obviously so.
Why the fuck would they straight up lie to me Veeky Forums?
Ryan Cox
>Why the fuck would they straight up lie to me Veeky Forums? Because it's ingrained in our culture that it's rude to tell others that they're fat. I wish we were more like Japan, where if you're fat, you'll never hear the end of it.
Angel Jackson
I'm only lifting.
I'm massively obese and taking creatine + protein powder every day, is there anything wrong with this?
I'm somewhat watching my food intake.
Mason Barnes
Cardio and dieting. Do calisthenics instead of lifting. Lost 36 pounds in 6 months. BF% under 15 now
Tyler Turner
You'll destroy your joints if you squat/deadlift/do any high-impact cardio. You're also gonna have to work FUCKING HARD to get a true bearmode physique. Easier to lose the weight desu senpai
Kayden Hall
Down to 327 from 388. Only about 180lbs left to go, which means all I have to do is take how hard I've worked this year and work that hard three more times.
Just broke a water fast after 110 hours because my mom was worried about me. A bit too late to "keep doing it," but I'll definitely start it up again, which is almost the same thing.
Camden Price
I was 167 lb at 5'2 which is very close to medical obesity, and I had friends and family tell me I was "just a bit chubby". I think it's partially due to obesity/being overweight being normalized in our culture.
Caleb Peterson
>blew my boyfriend, forgot to spit and went over my TDEE
Mason Brooks
Oh fuck me. This was a bad idea. It's me again. The 110hourwaterfastfag.
I wasn't prepared for how hard it would be to restrain myself from going overboard during the cooldown. I just had a fucking burrito.

Alexander Sanchez
>5'11", 250lbs and no muscle >see myself in the mirror one day and get sick of being disgusting >lose 110 pounds >people STILL tell me "you weren't really fat just a bit overweight :)"
I don't fucking know user
Jack Lee
Did a 84 hour waterfast after breaking up with girlfriend of 2+ years a month ago. Probably not the smartest thing but still its mental discipline to not overindulge. You'll be ok user
Jeremiah Cox
thanks breh. that puts me at ease a bit
next time I'll have to have more discipline not to end it off like this
Isaiah Wilson
I ate 21 Oreos yesterday. It wasn't satisfying by any means. I could feel the sugar's effect on my body, I felt sick and still don't feel good physically or mentally.
I know the shitty feelings will go away in a day or two but should I just go back to my usual routine or try and make up it somehow?
Hunter Miller
I can't stop making ice cream
Oliver Hernandez
Just a friendly reminder for all of you who are counting calories and wish to make it:
if you don't own one, BUY A FOOD SCALE
I was counting my calories without one for months, and now that I own one I measured some common day to day foods I consume and was shocked how many of my logs were completely off. I knew that I couldn't be completely precise with measuring calories without weighing, but I was surprised to notice just how off I was. For example, my 10 tablespoons of oatmeal seem to have double the calories of what the program tells you. I was thinking I was eating an average of 1700 kcal a day where my actual average is actually about 2100 a day.
So yeah, tldr: if you count calories and don't own one, buy a food scale asap, it's going to be your new best friend.
Jack Reed
Nice part of weight loss in the military: nobody tries to sabotage you are tells you you're perfect as you are, and other fat people won't get triggered and start crying if you talk about calories. If anything, they take it as an excuse to banter you more.
Easton Brooks
At this point I think I'm just gonna use the gun method to lose all my pounds. It'll be a hell of a lot easier than halving my current bodyweight (which is what I'd need to do to be on the low end of healthy for my height).
Kayden Torres
Help. I can't get out of the cycle of eating fast food every day. It's like I'm compelled to get it. Wat do?
Anthony Hill
idk but something tells me that using the old "make your son smoke a whole pack at once so he'll never want to smoke again" trick on yourself might work.
Dylan Butler
Rolling
Jayden Gutierrez
Me too, gotta start working harder for chest gains
James Carter
>girl here >was 240 lbs >dropped down to 170 lbs I'm still not at my goal weight and I've just stopped losing I'm not sure what to do. When I weigh myself in the morning I always fluctuate between 170 and 173 but I never lose or gain more then that. For my job I'm on my feet all day walking and running around, and then I work out at home. Do I need to eat even less calories? when I first started I was eating no more then 1200 but I was always hungry....
Elijah Smith
That's something that really bothered me when I started. Friends and family saying things like "oh you're not that fat" or "you don't need to lose weight you're just curvy" I know they meant well trying to make me feel good about myself but fuck off and support my choice to get healthy
Jack Martinez

Zachary Cox
>lose a ton of weight >instead of "you look good" all I hear is "you're so skinny"
Nathan Sanchez
Post facegains lads
Austin Bailey
Fuck it, this is six months difference, from 285 down to about 250.
Slow, I know, but I'm back on the diet wagon and cycling to work everyday, so I'm gonna make it if it fucking kills me.
Nicholas Edwards
Your calories are directly related to your weight, so losing fifty seventy pounds means you need 70 pounds less calories, I think it was like 8 calories a pound or something as an estimate
Hudson Price
So today I hate 3 slices of whole wheat bread, a small plate of bulgur and vegetables. Is this good? I am supposed to be on a 1200 calories (im the 115 kg fatty chick) but idk if i can keep it up and if i can count my calories.
Christopher Myers
Short answer is yes, you need to either eat less or burn more to lose weight. Those fluctuations are water weight, everyone goes up and down a couple pounds, women especially due to hormones.
Are you sure you're on just 1200 cals a day? Fatties and former fatties are notorious for underestimating their intake. I mean it, you have to be totally honest and ruthless with yourself here, or you WILL fuck yourself over.
Christian Lee
Don't do it bro! Go shoot deer instead, walking through the woods everyday will help you lose the weight.
And trust me I am fatter then you. Lost 70 pounds in 6 months, still over 100lbs over obesity line.
We're all going to make it!
Brayden Edwards
Are you not eating meat? it seems pretty carb heavy
Parker Gonzalez
No I was on 1200 when I started but then I bumped it to 1500 because I was still really hungry at the end of the day. I also keep a calorie diary where I write down everything I eat. This holds me accountable and also makes cheating a chore (have to write it down and find out the calories to have a chocolate etc...) I guess I should go back to 1200. Hopefully with how much weight I've lost I won't be hungry all the time eating that much.
Dylan Mitchell
I'm training everyday but I'm back at eating candy and shitty food, I feel embarrassed of myself
Levi James
If you're worried, go out and burn the calories off with exercise.
Aaron Adams
Just realize how much it set you back in time and for the bad feelings that you got to be the result of why you set yourself back. Then dust yourself off and get back to the time consuming grind that is weight loss.
Jaxon Adams
I did cardio and dieting for 8 months, added lifting in the past four. Really wanted to focus on fat loss plus didn’t have a lot of muscle to lose anyway. Going well, down almost 80 lbs
Brandon Myers
Fat crabs trying to bring you back down the bucket. Fuck 'em.
Levi Collins
Fork putdowns + nervous job, I know it won't end well but 10lbs melted in month.
Jackson Nguyen
Your TDEE drops as you lose weight too so in order to keep the weight loss linear and not plateau you need to drop your intake accordingly. 1500 might have been fine at 240 but you might feel just comfy with 1200 at 170. There's less of you so you need less.
Ian Martinez
Lifting and dieting. Diet is my main focus for weight loss and lifting to keep my metabolism loss at a minimum. I have good hair genes so I recently got back on creatine monohydrate and I'm seeing slight gains in strength even on a cut. Added another half inch to my arms over the past few weeks.
Isaac Jenkins
I stationary-bike a 10k every day and am avoiding sugar save for a bit of honey in my tea. Other than that I'm just trying not to snack and watching my calorie intake, though I really should get a notebook or an app to calorie count
I just started (tried keto before, it worked but it's not sustainable going between work/school where I can't cook easily) so if anyone has any tips, they're appreciated
Liam Carter
who /reverse diet/ here
>tfw maintaining/gaining less than .25lbs/week on 3600 calories
9 weeks into reverse...after Christmas i'm going to switch to fat loss and try to get lean for summer
Jace Ross
I do eat meat but today I ate legumes instead of meat good idea, but still, is this a lot?
Logan Perez
also i forgot to say that bulgur contains protein
Eli Gray
Anybody else get depressed of how much of an uphill battle you fight against your body?
>do exercise >have to keep making it harder and harder to burn calories at the same rate
>eat a little less >you got smaller? eat even less
>vegetables are best food for you >worst tasting food group
>get muscle >slack off once you've hit your goal? guess what's fat now
William Campbell
Muscles don't turn to fat, I can't believe that retarded meme is still around. How in the fuck would that even work? Muscle tissue suddenly turning into adipose? Which is an entirely separate kind of cell? Fuck mate, stop being a tard.
Logan Bennett
You need to find ways to eat veg where it tastes good. You're never going to get anywhere if you always act like eating healthy is bad and it's a chore. There are lots of delicious ways to cook/eat vegetables you just have to find them and re-train yourself to not automatically associate vegetables with bad tasting food.
Brandon James
>tfw exercised more than usual this week, but also ate a bit crappier than usual this week >tfw weekly weighing is tomorrow morning >tfw expecting the worst
Jaxon Howard
>lose weight >eat healthy 99% of the time >count calories like a good boy 99% of the time >decide to indulge like a normal human being should be allowed to do >feel like absolute shit, get visibly bloated, feel like shit, look like shit >hate self
yes
Lucas Evans
What exactly are good-tasting vegetables? I always see asparagus, kale and shit being hocked and shit's disgusting even when doing those 'yummy' cooking tips
Bentley Robinson
Kale tastes of literally nothing just blend it with a banana and you can sip like 200g of kale and it tastes like candy
Bentley Hall
at that point why not just eat a banana and skip the kale
Jacob Parker
it's not the same cells obviously, your body withdraws the muscle cells for their calories which it then stores in fat cells
Lucas Allen
It's all about finding which vegetables are good raw and which are good cooked or mixed with other things. I think stirfrying is the best way to eat a lot of vegetables all at once that taste good. Zucchini, carrots, squash, broccoli, cauliflower, onions, leeks etc all make great editions to a stirfry with or without meat. Then it's all up to your tastes for seasonings or if you choose to use sauce or not. Then for things like spinach and kale I like eating them with sandwiches or blending them into fruit smoothies so I don't even taste them. That's not even mentioning how a little hummus can go along way. Could go on but I would be here all day.
Jaxon Perry
I mean I'd love to just fry up yellow onions and eat them all day every day but cooking in oil is too fatty
Jaxson Hill
There are a few different kinds of oils and you can use them sparingly. I only use olive oil and I put it in a sprayer so the amount I use when cooking is very very small. Even if you don't do that you don't need more then 1-2 tablespoons of oil for a large stir fry (big enough to feed a family) Just make sure whatever oil you pick has a high smoke point.
Kevin Campbell
This. Weigh/measure EVERYTHING. DO NOT GUESS. If you could guess portion sizes accurately, you wouldn't be fat in the first place.
Juan Bailey
Because the kale has far more vitamins goofy
Dominic Jenkins
Know that feeling.
> Have been stupidly stressed out due to dissertation deadlines- so eating has been all over the place this week (some days 800, others 1.5k where 1.3k is normal intake). > Haven't been able to exercise as much this week either > Weigh in tomorrow.
God speed user. Hopefully we'll both see a reduction on the scales still- remember, progress is progress even if it's not rapid.
Joshua Wright
>dat cross
B-brother?
Great job. You made it, or very nearly, now for some porridge and several months of gains.
David Jenkins
>had to get old immunization records to go to uni >one of the medical records had my weight >12 years old >5'3" (91 percentile for height) >160lbs (99.9 percentile for weight) >28.3 BMI I forgot how fat I was as a kid. Goddamn.
William Mitchell
The thing though, is that as soon as anyone was angry at me (or just being an asshole) for some reason, they would always go for the same fucking insults.
"oh yeah we'll you're a fat shit lmao" "wow fuck off you big moron"
the same fucking people. absolutely mental.
Adam Flores
broccoli is great steamed kale is good if you mix it in with something. i like kale soup or doing it with chicken is also good spinach is gr8
leafy green veggies are the best for you
David Cooper
cardio and dieting went from 110kg to 98 in just under two months(4 more days)
im liking the progress so far idk if it's good speed of weight loss or not but i feel better so far
Jackson Morris
>chicken >quark >vegetables >oatmeal >whey
What else (cheap and healthy) can I eat when I'm trying to CUT CUT CUT like a bipolar teenage girl? Somebody suggested that I take out pineapple, bananas and apples from my diet so I did and now I just put no-calorie juice in my quark.
Disclaimer: I can't fry eggs at the moment and that's the only way I could tolerate eating them
Jonathan Hill
Same experience here. Just proves the point. They'd LOVE to tell you you're fat, but feel obliged not to.
Kayden Taylor
>had a killer workout and 3 clean meals hitting every macro >suddenly depression, anxiety resulting in insomnia >g-goodbye gains, might have as well sat on my ass all day with the same result
Everytime.
How to stop falling for vagina jew tricks? Ever since i started look better i had this illusion i can actually convince a female to have sex with me without paying her big money, and it's ruining my life.
Ian Morales
Onions. And why can't you fry eggs? You don't have a pan?
Jason Miller
Beans, peas, mushrooms, cottage cheese. All cheap and protein heavy.
William Kelly
All three. Alternating between HIIT and lifting every day. Fasting 16:8 skipping breakfast. Started at 114kg in aug. At 89kg right now. Aiming for 75kg.
John Richardson
It's my husband's office christmas party tonight. Catered tri tip & lemon chicken + sides from the country club. I'm having a 310 calorie brunch so I don't go over today and so I can enjoy myself there.
Jason Diaz
Are you me? Same except from 255 to 180, I can't seem to break past 180.
Nathaniel Gonzalez
I've been binging the last week, averaging about 4000kcal while it should be well under 2000kcal for maintenance.
How do you deal with visiting family for the holidays, with all the food, sweets and snacks available? Also dysfunctional eating, both parents are overweight. I'll be visiting them until January 14th, how not to turn into a blob?
Josiah Ortiz
Finally found some photos. Something changed, but nothing too drastic.
Isaiah Brown
I have a pan but the ventilation in my apartment is shit. All the grease from frying something floats all over. Every surface in my kitchen and living room gets greasy as fuck, even stuff inside kitchen cabinets.
Chase Nelson
>broccoli >carrots >green beans >cauliflower >red and green peppers >onions Those are all amazing vegetables that can easily be prepared in a variety of delicious ways. I'm not even memeing with onions either; cook those, carrots and some peppers up and put them with some chicken and you have a great meal.
