Inshallah

they lie about their calories

Reminder not to starve yourself. Keto, IF, and fasting are memes.

Left pic- 250 lbs
Right pic- 206 lbs
At what weight should I begin to lean bulk?
Right now I am aiming for around 185 but should I be more focused on bf%? If so do you have any estimate for my bf%?
6’0 btw

>drank 200-300 calories of whiskey but (luckily?) got home slightly merry and forgot to add avocado to my dinner.
>still on 1500 cals for the day

It's worth every bit. Just a shame it's at Tesco of all places. Horrible shop

fell back into old eating habits last week and put 4 pound on.

How long did that take you, user?

Breyers Delights is where its at, £2.50 a tub in my local ASDA.

...

Recently starting regular exercise. Lasted a week before work got in the way and I feel like shit now. Will start again tomorrow morning

>this gif
>again

I ate a Reuben Hamburger with my dad at lunch today.

I didn't even schmooze him enough to get out of my current situation.

I'm 6', going from 220 to 165/170.

But yeah, you wanna get down to a decent BF before you do any bulking. Evidence suggests you'll put more fat than muscle on when you bulk given body chemistry from your former weight.

As far as BF goes, get yourself a tape measure and use the calculator in OP

you don't need the sugar fatty

Those pics were taken exactly 2 Years apart, with more discipline it could have taken much less time. I fell off the wagon for awhile but I’ve been back into the groove for a few months now and am the lowest I’ve been in a long time

looks like the fat vampire from blade

Ate an entire can of pringles + a sandwich for dinner.

>Still at less than 1800 calories for today boiz.

Thanks Ill measure now, the left pic was me straight out of high school, and fresh out of football. I was far stronger then, but my diet was absolute shit, I’m excited to see what a lean bulk will do, just have to grind down to a good starting weigh after all those years of terrible eating.

80kg, 178cm, 20%bf from the navy bf test. Lifts are 0.75/1.25/2.1/2.2 5RM.

Is it worth cutting then starting linear progression? Been lifting 4 months so I'm worried about wasting my noobie gains while cutting but I am getting fat. Or should I accept the fat and bulk?

Would intense calorie tracking and eating at a very small surplus force enough of a recomp or am i too late for that?

This thread isn't really for you.

Finish your bulk then cut

What's the fastest way I can lose fat without killing myself?

Eat less. Move more.

Basically read the sticky. Maybe try keto

Fast

tfw no taytay to go food shopping with

haha you guys are fat

...

who /down2pantsizes/ here?

From a 38 to a 34, the 34 I just bought (slim fit) feels like I could maybe fit a 32. Lost 50lbs. We Jared now. Still wearing an XL up top due to my tiddies

I know what you mean, user. I went from 315 to 230 in the span of two years, but I've hit a weight wall for the past couple months now, and I know it's entirely on weekend bingeing.

>pants size down from 44 to 36
>shirt size still XXL
FUCKING GYNO REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

At my fattest I was 223, size fucking 40 pants. Now I'm at a (tight) 32.

At my lowest I was around 175, but over the past year re-fatted up back to 195. Trying to get to like 180 by mid-June

>tfw been intermittent fasting for 5 months now
>only lost 20 pounds
>tried to eat lunch again
>felt sick
>ate dinner
>felt sick
what do

5'4?

iktf bro, just gotta keep lifting and praying

how the fuck do you only lose 20 pounds.
no exercise?
binging during feed sessiom?

>only
20lbs in 5 months is bretty good i reckon

When I was at my thicc-est and size 40 was highschool and I was definitely shorter, but I don't think I was that short

...

>eat a really small breakfast
>follow up with a very modest lunch
>eat an early but substantial dinner at 5pm sharp, biggest meal of the day
>stomach totally empty to maximize inebriation:calorie ratio when imbibing nightly booze
Call me crazy but it works

...

...

yes. usually out of emotional distress

t-thanks for the motivation

my problem is that even the food Im eating now is making me sick

>im a lil bitch

this shit isnt going to end unless you stop making excuses, just fucking stop and DO IT, DO IT ALL. EVERY DAY SPENT NOT DOING YOUR MAXIMUM IS A DAY WASTED AND YOU REGRET IT THE DAY AFTER, YOU KNOW ITS TRUE. STOP THIS FUCKING SHIT YOU FAGGOT, STOP THE FASTING MEME AND GET A REAL ROUTINE/DIET

yes sir

Down from 38 to a snug 33 (don't wanna buy clothes again until I'm at my goal weight)

My neck size went down from 18.5 to 17.5, XL to L. Feels good

now, if you cut the alcohol, you'd lose weight even faster

>losing neck gains

2 pounds to go before I'm no longer obese

I need some help, today at end day I have under eaten quite alot (only 800kcal total out of 2800kcal) - should I eat some sort of snack to counteract this?

The problem is the only snacks I have accessible right now are potato chips.. and I am trying to stick to a low carb sort of diet right now.

Should I eat or just stop being a bitch and go to bed with 800kcal total?

Sounds like you need to stop fasting. I ate a deficit with no exercise and I've lost 25 pounds in about 2 months. Most of it is probably water but I still feel good about it. It sucks for a little while but I try to keep in mind hunger is a sign of progress not only for my body, but also my mind.

sex with my girlfriend actually helped me burn those cals when I wasn't at the gym, just a tip bros.

You have a similar build to me, so excited to look like you bro. I'm still like 35kg away, but I'm fucking making it eventually.

how to reduce stretch marks

...

Had a meatball sandwich and some chili with quartered tomatoes for my one meal today. It was pretty good

baby oil

Lotion, collagen supplements and dermarolling

Does eating breakfast benefit weight loss a lot? Always hear about people saying it boosts your metabolism for the day but I don't really enjoy eating in the mornings.

Wasn't any gains I wanted fampai. And my neck is pretty impressive without the fat

Just had 4 tbsps of peanut butter and a Centrum as my sole meal of the day. Reduced appetite is weird

Breakfast is a meme, don't bother

Eat pickles for breakfast and drink a lot of water.

Hydrating + sour + vinegar = good for you

>porn videos shot in hospital emergency rooms

wow it's almost like fasting is a fucking meme. see pic related

not eating and then bingeing is a good way to give yourself an eating disorder. eat healthy foods in moderate amounts and the weight will come off steadily.

Fixed it for you

>tfw bought the IF meme

Tried IF and ended up eating 1700 calories instead of 1400

People here are always talking about oats. I just got back from the store and the whole oatmeal section was filled with instant shit.

I bought granola. Did I fuck up..?

>5g added sugar

Yes, you did.

has a lot of added sugars but it's okay

Should i be concerned about these numbers if im hitting my calorie & exercise goals?
(370lbs 6ft)

what the fuck are you eating

What are you putting into yourself tho

depends on your exercise goals
are you lifting, trying to gain muscle? if so you need more protein and less carbs, so yes those numbers matter

if you're just doing cardio stuff, then more carbs is ok, but you should still lower them. you can be less concerned about your macros though in this case

Looking again at your current weight, no, you have no reason to be concerned with macros yet, just your deficit.

Way to many carbs lol. You should aim for less than 100 carbs per day and 1200 calories per day. It will be painful for a bit, but eventually your body will adjust and you will be more comfortable.
