/fat/ - You're Not Getting Any Younger Edition

DONT.
THROW THE JAR IN THE BIN.
DO IT.
DO IT NOW.

Height, weight, I would say bf% but you have never been to the gym so you won't know that.

Also, what your goal is. You are about 240, and when I train people I have them lose roughly two lbs per week. Does being under 200 lbs in July sound geed to you?

I haven't worked out in a month. Other than standing at work and walking my dog, I've been a lazy fuck.

It's how I get my fats, to be honest.
But I'm not going to have anymore today, thanks user.

Jesus that would be glorious.

So yeah as I said 110 kg for 1 meter 80 (something like 5'11" if Im not mistaken)

Body fat is something around the lines of "what is even muscles".

Honestly I dont have a goal I have no idea what's good, I dont even have an idea what Im doing, facing my shyness is a bit like skydiving without parachute to me. Would like to look good and be healthy, that's pretty much that, so I need to exercise, and never stop, it needs to become a routine.

Good, well done user, another step towards a healthier life. Im proud of you. You will make it.

I'm under 300 lbs
I feel it. I fucking feel it.

Does anyone know how is pic related called in English? Or if they even exist outside my country? I ate one and I can't find their caloric value anywhere

You actually aren't in too bad of a spot at your height, and shouldn't have loose skin issues, but I completely get that this is a big unknown that causes a lot of apprehension.

A couple of things: Your diet must change. You can't get to your height/weight without a poorly balanced diet, so you are really going to succeed have to cut some things out completely, and this will be a lot harder than actually hitting the gym because your body has been conditioned to be addicted to things that are bad for it.

You actually DON'T want to be skinny; a guy your height who is a muscular 100kg will look far better than a guy your height who is a lean 75kg. But the first step after diet is routine, forcing yourself to hit the gym every day and build up your cardio vascular endurance, and take the stress off of your joints by shedding 20ish kg. Once you get to this point you will know a lot more about what kind of physique you want to shoot for.

How old are you?

I am 6’0” and weight about 220lbs. I am a fairly heavily built guy, and at the moment fat, but not insanely so. I looked up my goal weight for the lower end of healthy BMI and it says 140lbs. Honestly that seemed low to me, and I do not want to be a skelly.

Should I calculate in some other way?

Im 22. Been fat my whole life. It's just how I was raised so I need to break that curse.

And I've already been making major diet improvements, eating ONE serving, cut out sugar drinks replaced with fizzy water (this is my life, it actually allowed me to cut soda w/o suffering from the sort of withdrawal from sugar effect) I've decided to cut added sugars out completly, they're a motherfucking drug, I know it because I had succeeded in that but I fell back hard christmas time. Taking a single shot of added sugar and you're back in terrible habits. It's a curse that thing.

And yeah, then Ive decided to actually meal, and not consume foods over prolonged periods of time.

Taking stress of my joints sounds like heaven.

And yeah, apprehension to say the least, Im chronically shy and ashamed of my body like you wouldnt believe, stepping in that gym for that subscription took me 3 months to master the courage for it.

But fuck me I want to do it.

...

Decided I had enough of being fat in October.
40yo Dad of two, 6'2" 123kg always been on the heavy side but did lift with moderate discipline 15 years ago for 2 years.

Now lifting 6 days a week, eliminated all sugar and processed carbs from diet. Lean protein and salad or vegetables only.

Now 107kg and fully out of DYEL mode.

You're not so fat that you will be a spectacle. Don't worry about it. Go early in the morning if you want to avoid crowds or feeling awkward. 5am people there are too into their workouts to notice anything else. Do you have a routine?

Well my gym only opens at 7 unfortunately. But definitely will go in opening hours.

I think Im gonna go starting strenght. It looks reasonnable for a beginner.

Then yeah 3 days of lift, 2 of cardio.

>completely fine with dieting
>lost 60lb last year
>went from 212lb to 150lb
>told myself I'd start gym at 150 and get down to 140

5'7'' btw

>Now that I should be starting the gym I can't bring myself to entering the place because im worried people will laugh
>Know its not true as i've been to gyms before but this is the uni gym and im worried ill see people I know
>really annoying as I know I need to get over it and continue dieting/cutting while doing physical activity as my body is really skinny fat from the weightloss because I didnt do any exercise while losing the initial 60lb

IM SUCH A FUCKING IDIOT AND ITS CAUSING ME TO QUESTION MY WEIGHTLOSS. FUCK FUCK FUCK.

Just do it. It's fucking hard. But like. Do it.

Thanks /fat/, you motivated me to drop from 196 to 180 (6 feet tall).

I still need to lose some weight and put on some muscle, but at least I'm a step closer. Thanks brehs.

BMI is trash. Peak pussy-pulling weight at your height is like 220lbs at under 10% bf, you just have to decide how much muscle you want.
One foot in front of the other, amigo. Cutting soda is huge. Not sure where you are but in the US soda has corn syrup instead of sugar, and is basically poison. If you get the myfitnesspal app it will help you cut things from your diet that you didn't know were bad for you.

As your body changes, you will look at things totally differently. The first time you have to buy new clothes because the old ones are too big, you'll think, "well, might as well be fashionable." Once you start putting on muscle and lifting heavy, your T levels will spike and you will involuntarily become more assertive. And once you start getting mires you will start to practice getting over the shyness hump.

At 22 you have your whole life in front of you. By 2019 you could be a totally new man, if you stick with it.

I know user, I know. I need to just get it done as I know its only the initial fear and once im in there ill have no problem. Its only a 5 minute walk from my uni digs so i've literally got 0 excuse.

Looks like a dinner roll trying to have sex with itself.

Im in France, not the fattest country. Actually possible to eat healthy as we're a huge fresh food, home cooked culture. But you have to, you know, do it.

My dude. You're a fucking livesaver. People like you are fucking gems, thanks for the support.

Im doing it this time, no turning back, no falling back into bad habits, Ive got a yearly subscription already paid for.

My life has basically been
>get fat
> Try to fight it
> Fail
> Try again.
> Repeat

This time is the one.

I know what you mean my dude. It's an everyday battle.

I started at 315, and managed to get down all the way to 230 in October. However, my weight hasn't gone down much since. I'm probably cheating too much over the weekends. The holidays and the Super Bowl did not help either.

I started around 160 and ate less than 1k calories a day but now I'm 130, flabby, and forgot how to eat.

How do you break the obsession with food?

I'm disciplined and I haven't gone beyond my caloric limit of 1500 more than 3 times since I started dieting late December. I have no problems avoiding food, but I can't keep it off my mind. I don't think its hyperbole to say that I think about food every hour except for the 2 hours after lunch and dinner. I don't feel like it's tempting me per say, it's just annoying that I can't keep it off of my mind.

Fill up your day, you're probably a student or someone with a lot of sparetime. Notice how you dont think of food while in class ? This is key. If you think of food understand it, and do something else than food, also, drink water.

I'm down to 252 from 273 with a goal weight of 190. What do you guys think about lifting at this point?

Lift. At worst it will help you loose weight, at best you'll even gain muscle, what do you have to loose.

France is pretty great. I was in Cherbourg for 10 days, many years ago.

I'm happy to motivate. I was never fat, but crippling autism and social retardation really got in the way for me until I was 21, when it all clicked.

And bro, the first time a grill takes off your shirt and is visibly impressed, you'll know you've made it.

No grill except my girlfriend will take of that shirt, but If I can impress her, jesus I will be happy.

Thanks for all the support. Gonna head of to sleep, I hear it's no good not getting enough sleep.

Actually not a student.
I workout from 6:15 AM to 7: 15 AM, then I get ready for work, then work from 8:30 to 5:00 or 5:30. Food randomly pops up in my mind even when I'm in the middle of work stuff. Granted, I actually have a lot of spare time most evenings and the weekend but the midday stuff is annoying. I also drink so much water I have to pee like every hour.

Man, I really want to get awesome chest gains /fat/. I'm still a ridiculous bf%, so I really need to keep cutting that shit hardcore. But, I've learnt that I have enough muscle in my pecs, and good enough muscle control that I can flex my pecs independently, like Terry Cruz does.

Fuck gotta keep it up, lose that fucking flab.

Yeah realistically I'm never going to have any of that. The reason I'm doing this is to avoid stuff like chronic pain and health issues later in life. My body is too damaged from extra skin and stretchy marks to look like that anyway.

Thanks, should I be doing SS or something else?

eat walnuts for fat

healthier and cheaper than peenut butter

Im no expert. But SS is decent GSLD is too.

you're gonna wanna gain lean muscle mass since having more means your body burns for calories during the day.

Currently down to 258 from 318

we're all gonna make it my fellow fatties.

Ate a chick fil a sandwich on Tuesday father

Ladies at work noticed I lost weight. "Wow user, are you hard out excercising?" They see me all the time, but obviously I have gone over the tipping point for "looking slimmer".

>or as I call it the douchehouse

Well boys, tonight I unofficially am at the 100 pounds lost mark. It will probably go back up in the morning but by Saturday (my official weigh in day) it will stick. June 2016 I was 330 pounds at 5'8 M, now looking at 230. 150 is the goal, it will be a while, but God damn I didn't even think I'd get this far in the first place.

CONGRATS man.

I think i'm gonna celebrate and cry once I go bellow 200 pounds . I haven't been in the 100's since i was like 12 years old. i'm 28 now

i'm this user btw

Hell yeah brother.

Keep it up senpai it sure as shit wasn't easy at first for me but now it feels like a waiting game

fat guy here. started working out again. this time my knees are fucked though. whats could i replace squats with in an exercise routine. i was thinking leg press+hamstring curls so i dont develop a quad overbalance. already started doing exercise bike for cardio. also my gut is so large that i cant get proper form on deadlift without letting all air out of my diaphragm first, resulting in a weak back. should i do sumo squats instead? i never feel anything when doing those. maybe im doing them incorrectly?

I am a 260lbs 6' tub of lard. I want to lose weight so badly that I don't give a shit. I don't care and the my fellow gym goers don't care.

You can do it broseph.

Pick out a Halloween costume that a /fat/ person can't wear but a Veeky Forums person can; by that time you can be down to below 200 lbs, if you stick with it. I believe in you my dude.

Thanks, bud. I'm so angry with myself for not starting sooner. That hardest step is just getting past that mental hurdle.

How old are you?

Little over two weeks ago I finally snapped and went on a keto diet. Previous to that i was heavily depressed and frequent alcohol drinker for 3~ years. I've kept a strict keto diet with all the right foods. Was 5'7 271 now im down about 10lb and feeling great. Also had no withdrawal symptoms and most of my food based craves are non-existant.

Reminder to watch and correct your posture.

T. Dowager's hump + forward neck fatass

I was once 296lbs. I got down to 185. Then i started eating pizza again, then fast food. Im now at 251. I had a woman once brag to a friend, i had the biggest dick she had ever been with(iwas 24, she was 44) now I'm fat again i feel like i lost woody too.. :'(

Pics for science? N-no homo

With losing weight I feel like I've found my dick again. Weird ass feeling. Kind of like Puberty 2.0.

A bit of advice that can be applied to the first gym visit and a whole lot of other life choices.
Think of it as a sum:

If you go to the gym and someone looks at you funny (which they won't) what have you lost? Answer is nothing
If you don't go to the gym, what have you lost? Lots

It's a situation where you can only win and no real losses.
It also applies generally to social anxiety, nothing ventured nothing gained.

Was 220 at Christmas. Down to 197 now.

I... I think I'm gonna make it

which is the real me?

Sorry but i dont have any before photos of my dick. But i do have before fat pics.

And after

I think I've seen webms of you doing squats

>get home from work
>bratwurst is made
>have 2
>look up how many cals in one brat
>fucking 300 per brat

I do have to say though.i joined the army and gained muscle while weight loss. So now i look more muscular and have a body figure thats plump more than a disgusting shapeless blob of shit.

Keep it up bro. I was your weight like 4 months ago, although Im 6ft. Currently down to 230.

Maybe not, i have that blue sweater. I'll find it, put it on.

But that's not a bad thing actually. It would hold me to a certain accountability, if i were to make webms, keep up with a few people and status update progress. I usually frequent gif but its all tranny porn now a days.

WAS IT GRILLED

I knew I had seen a webm of you doing squats. Pic related.

did losing weight make you broke or somehow affect your fashion sense?

600 cal if you only have that plus vegs isn't bad at all.

also bratwursts keep you full for a long ass time.

Thanks man. I think were ganna make it

now yer bein a bully m8

First photo was a masonic meeting night. I was 20 or 21 there. Maybe 24 in the red pants pic. I just turned 28. I went from preppy to hipster-ish to now i just wear what i dont feel like a fat ass in. Which isnt the same blue sweater.

21

One thing i am glad for is i never had issues keeping tree trunk Calves. Did you see my before and after blue sweater. Id happily be this skinny dude struggling at the rack

Pic related

Yeah I feel way more filled than I thought I would. Should finish the day at like 1200 calories as long as I dont eat anything for the rest of the night

Brah, at 22 you can be a chad if you keep at it. You have your whole life ahead of you. Go do great things my dude.

I hope so.

>group of teens laugh at me when i walk by
why do i even try to lose weight when this always happens

>first time seeing gains through my arm fat
>1,76 manlet, 105 kg
Feels good, anons.

Protein and fat absolutely fill you up, those are some high quality calories, my man. Don't be afraid to eat them.

>5"1
>294
>19 years old
I've been that awkward /fat/ girl my entire life and honestly, I'm tired of it. Even if it's only for a while, I want to know how to feels like to not be fat.
>inb4: Tits or GTFO

My grandmother fried a porkchop. And I ate it.

>literal land whale
How about just GTFO

Porkchop is fine, you dumb whale. Stop eating mc donalds

asian, fat and entitled

the worst combination, i would call you a roastie but that would be an insult to all roasties

>You bump into Stacy at the book store.
>You shared a class, years ago.
>You were always nice to her, but what would she want with a guy like you? She was a knockout, you were... you.
>"Oh, um, user, I didn't recognize you! You look so, different! You look great, wow, is that really you?! Haha." She blurts out nervously. >Her eyes dart to your chest, shoulders, arms.
>Your polo shirt is pretty tight from bulking. >She starts to blush.
>You've never made a girl blush before...

You can do it user. I believe in you.

Dude writes erotica, how would he know what you, , can do

>th-thanks y-you t-too
