Blake Gray
because you're eating around 2000-2500 calories per day from the look of things track your shit properly and stop drinking milk if you're on a cut
Dominic Bennett
i need calcium for healthy bones
Connor Gutierrez
stop having so many snacks stop having so many fruits don't have hot chocolate every night
Ian Phillips
everyone says you need to have healthy snacks to stop binging. and i need the hot choclate to sleep
Justin Anderson

Oliver Phillips

Landon Fisher
Cornflakes? Nutrigrain bar? Hot fucking chocolate? Please tell me this is a troll thread.
Jose Bennett

Lucas Torres
Talk to a psychologist
Jonathan Harris

Nathaniel King

Ryder Harris
Milk is actually for your bones

Cooper Diaz

Michael Campbell
milk = estrogen + high calories

Jayden Fisher
Milk is actually bad for your bones
*i meant to say
Kayden Moore
>BREKKIE kill yourself
Jose Richardson
your diet is shit >bowl of cornflakes and milk assload of carbs, meh nutrition, you're drinking calories on a cut (???) >two apples and a banana eh, it's an acceptable snack. You could cut calories a bit by replacing with green veggies but not bad >chicken fillet baguette >glass of milk Fuck off with the glass of milk >nutrigrain bar You don't need 2 snacks. You don't need to snack at all. Only eat at meal times. >steak, sautéd veg and potatoes Acceptable meal, try to up protein macro. You could cut out the potatoes and eat more steak and veg >activia yogurt and grapes ENOUGH WITH THE FUCKING SNACKS >hot choclate YOU DON'T NEED THIS
Try subbing your milk for *unsweetened* almond milk. Also STOP FUCKING SNACKING JESUS
Landon Smith
what do you put in your chicken baguette
Cameron Johnson
You are consuming more energy than you expend.
Jacob Watson
THIS. Also, drinking milk is fucking retarded, since it spikes your insulin like a Mars bar, high insulin->low leptin->no fat burning. I once ate low fat yoghurt on keto, almost fucking died from acute hypoglycemia. OP, stop eating fucking shit and do keto with intermittend fasting. IT WORKS. You will feel better(not initially, though, prepare NOT to sleep for a few days), sleep better, have more energy and feel less hunger.
Kevin Young
>im looking for help not criticism Literally the same thing
Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it ain't true >b-but muh choco milkies ;(
Gabriel Wilson
you are overcomplicating this. one galon jug of milk has all the nutrients you need for the day. go look up program called starting strength - it will set you on the right path. gl user.
p.s. a thot for motivation
Anthony Martinez
Stop eating close to bed, you fuck up your periferal oscillators(circadian rhythm clocks working on insulin). You will be sleeping bad for a few days, then you will adapt and get a better sleep.
Luke Morris
Too much milk, it seems
Camden King
>Recommending a fatty do SS+GOMAD fuck off rippetoe
Eli Hughes
Give up the snacks and hot chocolates. That's like 800 calories right there
Isaiah Flores
Also: are you a child that must drink milk? What is this American meme?
Isaiah Russell
>eat 3k calories yesterday >do fuck all day just sit infront of the computer >weight half a kilo less this morning my TDEE is about 2,6k help reeeeee
William Harris
Leave your logic at the door when you enter this thread plsthx
Owen Ross
just mayo, lettuce and tomatoes
Christopher Bailey
>six meals a day Nice meme.
Jeremiah Stewart
calories in vs calories out is a scam. You can get fat and eat your fucking muscles on a deficit, just cut calories and eat carbs. You will feel like shit, too.
Aaron Wood
Do you count calories? Have you calculated your daily kcal needs? Do you run a 20% deficit +-5? If the answer to any of that is no you fucked up and wasted an entire month by being a retarded nigger too dumb for basic googling
Gabriel Walker
Find out how many calories your body needs to maintain current weight, and count the calories you eat.
When the number of calories you eat is less than the calories your body burns, you will lose weight 100% of the time. That's it. It's simple math. No genetics excuses or special exceptions.
If you burn 5 gallons of gas in your car every day, and only pump 4 gallons back in every day, you will eventually run out of gas.
Jose Nelson
99.9% of the time, calories in vs calories out works fine. Someone who's even slightly obese is burning close to 2500 calories a day if they don't even get out of bed.
Limiting your carb intake and upping your protein intake will help your burn fat faster and retain muscle mass, but simply eating at a deficit is going to have any fatty losing weight.
Christian Rodriguez
Whole carbs are good. Change the cornflakes for porrige. Get rid of the dairy altogether It is AIDS. Lean chicken breast is ok in moderation but steak should be rare as it has way too much fat for weightloss.
Aiden Gomez
I don't count calories. I jog three times a week and I always make sure to take the stairs etc
Joshua Ortiz
>2018 >eating grain >tons of research on gluten fucking up your gut lining stick to veggies, starchy carbs are nigger-tier for weight loss anyway.
Eli Lee
You lose weight in the kitchen. Losing weight is 100% all about calories. Exercise is healthy for you anyways so keep that up, but start counting calories and eat less calories than your TDEE and you will lose weight.
Brody Wilson
The overwhelming evidence suggests otherwise. There are no populations on earth that ate a grain based diet that had ANY problem with obesity. All the biggest civilisations and noone but the wealthy elites were overweight. Nor did they have any problem with "gut lining" (WTF). Stop believing the low carb bloggers bullshit.

i'll starve if i eat less

Saying its all about calories is missing the bigger picture. What are you going to feel more satiated with, 500 calories of oil or 500 calories rice, beans, veggies? calorie density is what matters most, unless you go on a meme diet like keto, or fast, which suppresses your appetite.
Grayson Morgan
Look down at your gut. It's bigger than you want it to be, right? Pinch it. That's thousands of calories of FAT - stored energy. THOUSANDS. weeks' worth at least. The skeleton Gandhi fasted for 20+ days. Exercising more will help. But fucking EAT LESS if you want to lose weight, jesus.
Kayden Rivera
Holy shit people still believe the ZMA meme and haven't figured out it's an expensive placebo.
Jackson Miller
This is meme advice disprove by the scientific literature. Crash diets have been proven not to work longterm. Almost everyone simple puts the weight back on and continues to yoyo about. The only way to loes fat and keep it off is a sustained dietary and lifestyle change.
Landon Ward
>healthy Welcome to the health literacy trap. Enjoy your stay while people correct you and you ignore their advice due to a preconceived notion that you know what you’re doing. Have a nice day!
James Harris
i can't starve myself. look at children in africa. they're fat. it doenst work
Brayden Lopez
>tons of carbs and sugar Why I not lose weight goys
Alexander Campbell
You need to download my fitness pal and start anally tracking your calories for a few weeks because you obviously have no concept of calories in vs out. Find you tdee and eat 500 less than that. Cut the milk and the snacks, eat some cottage cheese if you really want dairy. 1/2 cup for 110 calories and 12g of protein.
Colton Lewis
i am listening to people who arent just haters
Hunter Jackson
I didn't advocate OP fasting. I was just illustrating that he won't "starve himself" I'm not arguing with you. Stay fat.
Gabriel Watson
>I once ate low fat yoghurt on keto, almost fucking died from acute hypoglycemia.
You mean reactive hypoglycemia? Can you expound on this? Is this something like refeeding syndrome? I don't know a lot about keto.
also op, your diet is shit.
Jack Ross
Get into coffee or sugar free tea. One pack of sugar is fine, still a lot more healthy. Hot choc has pretty much the same amount of sugar as soda.
Gabriel Richardson
>There are no populations on earth that ate a grain based diet that had ANY problem with obesity Are you fucking kidding me? Also, it's not about obesity, but compromised immune system, malabsorption syndrom etc.
Cooper Young
low fat diary is extremely insulinogenic, due to lactose and fst-absorbing insulinogenic peptides. Everything below 30% fat is a no-no on a ketogenic diet.
David Brown
as i said , i need it to sleep
Ryan Martin
>t.never going to make it incel
Ryan Ramirez
>everyone says you need to have healthy snacks to stop binging. If you mean that people irl say this, then don’t listen to them. Ignoring them will save you months of frustration.
Tyler Wilson
literally the only people who ever yoyo are limp wristed faggots with 0 willpower.
eat less than you expend you stupid fat fuck
Josiah Rodriguez
zma?
Christian Reed
You're right, 250 calories of chicken breast is going to satisfy my hunger a lot more than 250 calories of chocolate, but from a strictly numbers standpoint, more calories being burned than what's being eaten will equal losing weight.
Anthony Gonzalez
If help's what you're looking for see Also cut out mayo from the chicken baguette Give it a week or 2 and your sleep schedule will normalize without the hot chocolate
^12/10 bait
Ayden Allen
I guess autophagy, that goes hand in hand with fasting, didn't get 2016 nobel prize in medicine. Seriously, fasting is the only way. If too hard try keto and/or IF.
Zachary Brooks
>The only way to loes fat and keep it off is a sustained dietary and lifestyle change. Translation: You have to eat less and less over time since your metabolism will get weaker and weaker. What was a good cut 5 years ago may now make you gain.
But that's not all! Think you can convince your body to burn fat and leave your muscle alone? You can't, even with working out. You are now in what your body thinks is a time opf starvation and have two choices: a) consume the tissue that will keep you alive in the worst case and is high in calories (fat) b) consume the tissue that actually burns additional calories and is mostly cosmetic (muscle) WHOOP-DE-FUCKING-DOO, guess what your body will do! He will kill off your muscle mass first, or rather what the body sees as superflous muscles mass (basically all of it). And there is nothing you can do about it unless you take steroids.
And since you now have no muscle anymore, you will be a skinnyfat bastard who jiggles when he walks. And NOW the body will attack your bodyfat. But - oh no! You lost all your muscle, so your metabolism is down AGAIN! That makes it even HARDER since you now have to eat LESS again!
Hence, diets are bullshit and only for women - who can't think logically. And female men like Veeky Forums, I suppose, who are "america tier fat" and will lose weight no matter what bullshit they do.
Chase Brown
>consume the tissue that actually burns additional calories and is mostly cosmetic (muscle)
Ayden Cooper
Yeah reactive hypoglycemia is what he means, I'm pretty sure. Yogurt caused insulin to be released into his bloodstream with barely any glucose in it, took almost all of what little was present, and made him hypoglycemic
Hunter Brown
people also say squatting is bad for your knees and deadlifts are bad for your back
dont listen to "everyone." listen to what is objectively correct
Charles Howard
Dude, I can't even put in words, how fucking wrong and generally retarded you are. Calories are bullshit, it's all about hormones! Also, thinking your body given the healthy insulin levels and response will munch on the sole souce of it's mobility is beyond stupid. Read about insulin-leptin pathways, insuline sensitive lypase, mTOR pathway.
Brayden Collins
Muscle is extremely energy inefficient in terms of maintenance dude, this is common knowledge. You also only need to maintain enough to maintain basic bodily functions(I.e running), not to be able to maintain your 5x5 245 squat
Cameron Moore
That sounds like you really tried to eat healthy, without listening to the meme soy keto vegan bullshit that's shilled here on Veeky Forums all day. These are people that ask about all meat diets, they're retarded.
I remember Walmart sells tubs of strawberry Greek Yogurt, that will be more filling than the Activia and yeah it has calcium too. Sweet potatoes are more nutritious than potatoes. Try eating more fish (sardines are amazing), load up on cooked spinach which you might be able to fit in an omelet. Your nutrigrain bar is just plain bad, consider replacing with a protein bar, beef jerky, or just skip all together. And I personally found a cold chocolate protein shake after workouts to taste pretty good, enough that I don't need the hot chocolate (which shouldn't be that many calories anyway if you use the right chocolate powder). In fact, having hot chocolate in the morning would probably be less calories than the cornflakes and milk, although oatmeal is probably best.

Elijah Lewis
>typing out all that irrelevant info >the word calorie hasnt even been mentioned
have you tried informing yourself on the topic of nutrition, dieting and weight loss like at all? fuck off you fat shit
Nathaniel Robinson
As long as you consume the right diet and amount of protein you body can keep any amount of what your test level allows you to. Again, read about mTOR pathway. If you want to keep muscles on a cut, all of it, just supplement leucin, it will keep mTOR activated.

Andrew Sanchez
I don't believe cornflakes are that great for weight loss, I suggest weex bix instead. Dairy isn't great for weight loss. Meat will increase your cholesterol a lot.
Samuel Carter
And you do realize extremely hypocaloric diets adversely affect testosterone levels right
Brandon Myers
Use the mucusless diet healing system. Basically gives you a new way to look at food.
