It's a crucible. You learn to do the right thing everytime over a longer period of time and it punishes weakness.

Am I gonna make it boys ?
Nolan Wright
Do it everyday. All of it. That's how you'll succeed. Keep doing it and the results will come. Also since you're starting get yourself a food scale for like ten bucks and count your calories based on the accurate weight. This will help you while you're losing, especially when you have to eat at precisely maintenance when you do make it, and when you're bulking.

Lost 16kg since september, 5 more and I'm gonna make it.

Caleb Kelly
Sir, Yes sir.
I am gonna make it this time.
Already fixed myself an hour when I go run. No excuses. Stopped eating more than one serving: that shit is the plague of fat people. Eat one good serving, dont eat more, this helps to avoid the slippery slope, "oh i didnt take that much, lets eat two dinners or three."

I know for a fact that carb loading helps, but it also gets you out of this determined state and makes you lazy piece of shit again, it also feels dirty to cheat. Should i continue with the deficit or go balls out on burgers? I want a KFC bucket so fucking much.
Evan Anderson
Stop cardio and start lifting. Lifting burns more calories and you won't end up resembling deflated condom in the end. Cardio is a waste of your time if your don't do it right (you don't), it also destroys your joints since you're so heavy, just walk for an hour or so everyday. Eat your protein, eat more protein than you eat carbs and fats, eating protein is the most important part of weight loss, do not neglect it,
Finally handed in my dissertation today. Also stepped on the scales and have lost another 2.5kg in the last few weeks- which makes me officially half way to my goal weight according to MFP. I'm chuffed with that as the last few weeks haven't been wonderful in terms of food and exercise- nothing has been really consistent.
Whilst it's not a progress picture exactly, I did have my photo taken today and came to the realisation that I am starting to look human. Pick related, the green top was back in feb of this year- so not even me at my heaviest. Started loosing weight in July, and have gone down from 83kg to 65kg as of this morning. Goal weight of 50kg finally.
Off for a run this afternoon to burn off steam after spending two hours printing and binding this morning. Then my family are taking me out for steak tonight- plan to just have a steak salad.

it's not water, and that's all i drink.
Jaxon Gutierrez
Wont stop cardio. Never. However I will add lifting. No need to be vitriolic about it.
The thing is Im currently too ashamed of myself to even set foot in a gym. That's the worst thing.
Adam Sanders
Wait are you a girl or a boy because I legit can't tell if you're just a twink with gay fashion sense or a dyke
Colton Ortiz
That's normal from what I could gather:
Just take a point in the day when you measure your weight and do it on the same hour each time.
Owen Gray
Yeah it's fucking better than water. It fills you up better than water, is more refreshing than water if you add lemon juice, represses hunger unlike water and has 0 calories

>Goal weight of 50kg finally get some fucking help you numale why do you wanna go from disgusting skinnyfat subhuman to auschwitz mode?
Gabriel Peterson
I'm female, also not a dyke- engaged to a chap. I'm a lazy vet student wanting to go into large animal practice- hence the short hair, it saves me putting it up and it's less likely to get covered in crud.
But you're probably bang on with the gay fashion sense.
Hudson Martinez
I'm 4 foot 9. 50kg is only just into normal BMI land for me.
Zachary Brown
Its a nice style if you're a girl, very modest. You should grow your hair out and I would be sure you would be cute.
Short hair on girls just make them look like fat dykes or retarded soccer moms.
Jackson Hernandez

>le willpower meme Its incredibly difficult to overcome an addiction even if it is to something stupid like coke. Green tea is literally healthier than water in every single way. If you drink water solely because its healthy you're retarded ic you're not drinking green tea (or black tea) instead.
Jack Nelson
lost 11lbs last month. going full keto now.
wish me luck lads.
Henry Kelly
Thanks. I have considered it for a while now, tempted to grow it out to shoulder length, might go for it when I get closer to goal weight! The only thing thats really stopped me is that I would need to be forever putting it up for surgery.
I spend the vast majority of my time when I'm not at Uni helping out in practice, so I literally just live in jeans or chinos and a shirt/jumper/t-shirt of some form.
I don't disagree though- I likely have looked like a fat dyke for a number of years now!
Easton Anderson
Being a manlet fucking sucks. My maintenance tdee is 1800 calories. It's so hard to feel full eating 1300 a day.
The only upside is that we put muscle on faster.
Cooper Myers

Jace Rodriguez
>Its incredibly difficult to overcome an addiction even if it is to something stupid like coke.
the majority of people who make that argument do so to justify continuing their shitty habits or """addictions""". I don't drink water because it's healthy, i drink it because it's the only fluid your body needs and i don't need to dilute it with tea.
Jonathan Cox
Tea is literally water with healthy shit added to it. Only a mongrel wouldn't drink it.
I overcame drinking 4 liters of coke ever day and it wasn't easy
Anthony Green
Vegetables and fruit are your friends. I eat between 1.3-1.5k a day myself- it's really a case of portion sizing and trying to fit in as much leafy green veg as you possibly can.

So for salads big handfuls of spinach, watercress, rocket and mixed leaves always go down well.
I eat loads of broccoli, cabbage, celery and kale in terms of greens. Personally can’t stand cucumber, but that’s pretty low cals.
As for other veg, cauliflower makes a good rice substitute. I also eat loads of mushrooms, peppers, courgette, peas, tomatoes and green beans.
Root veg wise I normally eat carrots, swede, butternut squash (makes an awesome sub for pasta) and parsnip at least a few times a week- I tend to sub mashed potato for mashed root veg.
Then it’s fruit- so apples, kiwis, mango, pineapple, whatever berries I can get hold of and less frequently bananas. I typically get around 8-10 different fruit and vegetables into my day.
Justin Edwards
Why is losing weight so easy but building muscle so hard? I was skinnyfat and wanted to get fit, but I have no motivation to exercise. It's easy to eat less because it requires no physical effort. I've just decided to embrace being thin because I'm lazy, so my BMI is currently 19.5.

Jonathan Long
This is going to sound bad/stupid but from Halloween to the day after Christmas my expectations go from "LOSE WEIGHT FAGGOT" to "MAINTAIN FAGGOT" and I hate all three months for it. Then again the old me would have probably gained 15+ pounds by now and we aren't even past Christmas yet. I'll go up 7 pounds for one week, hit the gym and it's mostly gone the next week (so I'm assuming water weight or high sodium from garbage). It kind of bums be out because it has postponed me from my 100 pounds lost mark (teetering on 90 right now). I don't even give a shit about New Years so there is that too. Tonight I have a work Christmas party, I'm sure I will be going over calories AGAIN but fuck it I'm going to the gym tomorrow too. That's how I have been dealing with it anyway.

Henry Garcia
Gonna continue trying to recruit here at least once per thread, need at least 2 more people
Anybody here wanna make some money while losing weight? There's a site where you can wager on your weight loss over a period of time and they're starting a team challenge on jan 5th and top prize is $10k. All the team has to do is lose the most weight % overall (ie a team of fats that start at 1500lb total will have less % lost if they lose 250 pounds total than a team with 1000lb total starting that loses 180 pounds).
It runs from jan 5th to mar 30th and is $25/month (per person i think) so if we make a team and all do some silly fasting shenanigans that would be ez 2k for each of us. if you're interested in trying email me parthrowaway at gmail dot com
No fuck you, I'm gonna find some people that believe in themselves enough to do this and take the 1st place prize away from some obese normies.
Joseph Price
I've lost over 35kg this year. Today was the first time I've carried that weight and went for a walk.
I was disgusted and astonished. Is this it /fat/? What's better than this? Visible ab gains?
You're gonna make it, user.
Caleb Fisher
Just fucking don't go over your calories, fuck just exercise some willpower the more you use your willpower the less difficult it becomes. You will hate yourself for the delays later because you had no excuse for it other than your own weakness
Jaxson Bell
Have 5-10 more pounds to lose but it's finals week and then the Holliday season feels badman
Anthony Wood
This is what I ate yesterday as a last checked 500 lb man (I haven't weighed myself in 9 weeks since I started going to the gym).
Breakfast: Steak and Eggs Lunch: Protein Shake in Cashew Milk, Peanut Butter Sandwich on Whole Wheat, Banana Dinner: Small bowl of Shrimp Fettuccine Alfredo 2 AM: 1 Piece of Whole Wheat w/ Peanut Butter, Banana
How bad did I do? I should have just went to sleep instead of eating. Between gym + this obviously not being 5000 calories I think it was a decent day.
Andrew Myers
If you like pasta try to go with veggie pastas. Spiralized squash or zuchinni do work. Also Birdseye makes a zuchinni and lentil pasta in either marinara or cheese sauce that tastes great.
Jace Sanders
thanks for the tip, I love squash so that sounds great
Austin Reed
Adding onto this
I drank a protein shake in cashew milk + ate a banana for breakfast today, getting ready to go to the gym now.

No shit it takes times, america wouldn't be like 30% overweight if it only took a month or two to get that weight off
I've been going at it for 2 years and 1 month (started November 15th 2015) and so far i've gone from 330 to 225, i'm still far from my goal of 180 but it's so rewarding seeing your progress, it's an amazing feeling
who here /long term weight loss?

I was only 236 when I started and it still feels like forever. 196 today. losertown projects me getting to the first goal, a normal BMI in March.

Second week on a diet deficit of about 1000 kcal per day before exercise. I go to the gym twice a day, spending approx half an hour on cardio and half an hour on lifting each time. I lost like 3.5kg in 3 days initially. Now it's been like a week and I've barely lost anything. What gives?
Wyatt Gonzalez
used to be Veeky Forums 2 years ago, got in a shitty relationship wheres the girl liked chubby guys, added about 10 kilos of pure fat in a year, not she left me but the fat stayed.

Supplements usually aren't too high in calories, right? I'm taking 1000mg fish oil, 50mg zinc, 500mg L-Phenyaline, 450mg Ashwaganda, 500mg choline, 500mg inositol, 1000mg L-Tryptophan and a multivitamin. I estimate all of them combined to be about 75 calories, but fear I may be underestimating.

Lincoln Scott
Honestly they should just make you people illegal. Reasons: 1) Gluttony is wrong. Some people are starving. 2) No one's personal choices should burden others with undue expense. The physical and nutritional needs of hambeasts encumber everyone around them beyond reason. 3) People who get fat are a public safety hazard. They obstruct exits, crush people, deplete vital resources, reduce the structural integrity of the very floor they stand on, and can't be trusted with anything or anyone if they can't even manage to stop eating. 4) Let's not forget, that as much of a burden as fatties are to others, the people they hurt the most by far are themselves. They deserve better lives than they're willing to live. So, MOST IMPORTANTLY, they should be thrown in jail because it would cure them. Consistently overeating in prison is very hard. If you didn't have the mental discipline NOT to overeat on the outside, you'll have nowhere near the necessary discipline to work hard enough to GET to overeat once you're locked up.

Throw away all that calorie dense nutrient-free shit and start eating well. You know full well what that means. There are no shortcuts or loopholes. You don't even have the keto excuse because you're comping on bread.

(1/2) Speaking from experience (I'm only still here because I still feel fat and need to talk to people who can relate to that feeling) here's how to do it. You shouldn't though. Don't do this. Really don't. But if you can't be convinced not to, here's what you do. Just one of many possible ways. Look in the mirror every day. Think about how fat and ugly you look. Then think about starving orphans. Think about stealing food from a bunch of starving orphans and stuffing it in your face hole like a greasy fucking pig so that they all die because they were one small meal away from dying and you took that one meal away from each them to add up to a huge feast for yourself. Look at your nasty ass gut in the mirror and imagine that's why it looks like that. Think about how it tasted. Immerse yourself in the flavor. I know this is probably the last thing you'd think to do, but try jacking off to it, even, if it helps; just do whatever it takes to emotionally convince yourself, and your body, that you really did eat that food, and it was good. You ate it *because* it was good, and gave no shits about the repercussions for anyone else, and that's why all these imaginary children are dead now. Because of your greed. Imagine what it must be like to be them in their last moments. So small, cute, clean, innocent. And yet, so strong, so selfless, so long suffering. And here you are, repulsive, filthy, weak minded, unable to endure even a minute of slight divergence from the absolute bliss of an overfilled stomach, much less aware in the least of what suffering even is.
Camden Hughes
(2/2) Repeat that mental ritual every time you overeat. Make sure this horrific, tainted, shame-drenched image is the last thing you think about every night before you go to sleep, and the first thing every morning when you wake up. When you no longer overeat, start repeating the ritual every time you eat at all; then, once you've reduced your calories and frequency of meals to a medically inadvisable extent, start repeating the ritual every time food even crosses your mind. Before long, you should start bitterly loathing yourself and your body, even more than you ever thought possible. You should start feeling sick and dirty, a kind of sickness and grime that won't go away no matter how long you rest or bathe, as if the filth is under your skin and the disease is in your soul. This is a good sign. Prolonged fasting should be much easier once that's happened. Be sure to think of it as "prolonged fasting." Never have the audacity to imagine you're "starving yourself" or "anorexic." Even once you reach an objectively low BMI and %BF, remember, you're still a fat slob and need to eat less. The number on the scale can go down forever and the face in the mirror will never change.
Caleb Williams
What do you do if you are a borderline sociopath?
Samuel Davis
Nice job man, you probably know a significant amount of that was water weight, but probably a few pounds of fat in there too. Keep it up, track those measured calories, and get on an exercise plan
Jonathan Thomas
No I bet a majority of that was actual adipose. Very obese people have an easier time burning calories starting off since it's hard for their body to move the weight. Just puts into perspective how many calories fat shits have to eat for maintenance.

Parker Hall
That does make things a lot more difficult. Try to get raped, I guess. It's harder when you're not a kid anymore, especially when you're also male and/or not conventionally attractive (e.g. fat), but be that as it may, the most surefire way to start feeling extremely ashamed about your body to the point of wanting to stop eating forever, is to get yourself fucking traumatized for life. I should know, my dad did this to me. There are a lot of people online who are into "gainers" and want to fuck fat dudes. As with any community, some of these weirdos are pretty ugly, some are pretty cruel and selfish, and I'm sure there are some who are both. Again, don't actually do this. It's not worth it. If putting yourself through this turns out to be the only thing that can motivate you to lose weight, you're better off staying fat, I promise. If after hearing this you're actually considering it, though, you're basically already anorexia waiting to happen / already have a different eating disorder, so at that point, whatever.
Carson Morales
Very good. Literally all you have to do is eat less (well macros are really important but most fat people only care about losing weight so I don't bother preaching that to them) and count to make sure you're in the green zone. Don't make weight loss your life bro. Your existence isn't centered around food. Find something you love, for example a vidya, and get immersed so the day is over before you know it.
Consumables are not your hobby.
Daniel Baker
Hell yeah. Keep at it, you fat fuck. Don't let anything get in your way, not even yourself. Don't stop till you've made it.
Grayson Rodriguez
What's a good macro split? I've been doing 30 carbs 40 protein and 30 fats but I haven't done too much looking into yet as I've been mostly focused on calories

I'm afraid these awful macros are responsible for my shit mood and foul disposition 24/7.
