Why don’t you guys just water fast? It gets easy after 3-4 days

Pasting from last thread;

I was 151 down from 162 (5'7 F, goal weight is 130), but I've been cheating way too hard on the weekends these past couple weeks and my work friends keep on pressuring me into drinking with them.

I'm back up to 154 now. I'm a little discouraged, and REALLY disappointed in myself because I'm recognizing that I'm starting to fall off the wagon again.

I'm not going to give up though, I just need to learn how to say no when I have ample opportunity to cheat. I can't let myself gain all the weight back.

I am ready to accept that I am addicted to carbs and start my new life as a keto person, I am enjoying my last carbs right now. Goodbye friends

Because I'm not a fucking retard.

>>>/fast/

? is some part of water fasting that you only see the placebo results after spreading your meme bullshit in 200 other threads?

Every weight-loss diet should start with CICO, but after that find something that works for you. For me it was keto, but you can lose weight doing anything. Go paleo, go vegan, fuck, eat 30 potatoes a day if that works for you, but do some of you guys seriously not understand that for a majority of the population, literally starving yourself isnt a viable option to lose weight?

because most of them want to do everything at once and get muscles early otherwise theyll look like subhumans

>you guys seriously not understand that for a majority of the population, literally starving yourself isnt a viable option to lose weight?
no because it is

no, i'm 100% convinced that carbs are the jews of food. I have more energy without carbs, feel better, save money and even look better. There is literally no reason to eat something that affects me and makes me binge and eat a lot.

I guarantee you do not

>save money
The most common sources of carbohydrates are literally the cheapest form of macronutrients you can eat

>even look better
You are delusional if you think the form of macronutrients that comprise your diet have any effect on your appearance.

Maybe the specific foods you are eating are not making you feel good, or make you "look better" when you don't eat them, but that's not carbohydrates themselves.

Listen here little baby. You're gonna get a lot of hurtful and degrading comments, but that ain't what I'm about. Let me just say, you are perfect the way you are. You hear me sugar? PERFECT. Don't ever change. You deserve anything and everything you want. Stay safe for me, baby girl.

>>how it is working out so far
Great, though for some reason my fatty appetite has been coming back lately. I've been snacking more than I should and just need to whip myself back into shape a bit. The first 35 pounds were honestly piss easy and I've been losing at a fast and steady pace. Finally making some small muscle gains. My frame is just BARELY getting a little definition now. I still look like a complete so.yboy when nude but I can feel and see myself heading in the right direction. Feeling better about myself every day.

We're all gonna make it brehs and brehettes.

You're probably right about the carb things but i'm too dumb to find what I am doing wrong in that regard so i'll just remove them, I grew up obese untill 15 and have like no good food habits, last 4 years I've been eating chicken breast every single fucking day for protein

>I've been eating chicken breast every single fucking day
That's not a bad habit (don't humor the "chicken is carcinogenic!" retards.) In fact, as long as it's not breaded, it's a great habit. I do admit that most carbohydrate sources lend themselves to over-indulgence on account of how tasty they are, but carbohydrates themselves are not the devil. Just try to find a source that you can enjoy without losing your mind, because carbs are incredibly important, and their absence will show you the error of your present thinking. Ketogenic diets are short-term affairs, they rarely last long.

Slow but steady because I have a slow metabolism due to my genetics.

I know that daily will vary because of water weight, ect, but I'm putting it all in a daily chart. It might help with my motivations.

Fish is generally less caloric than meat. Depends on the species, of course, but go for it.

If you're eating 1200 calories or less and plateauing, it means you're lying about one of the two

Pretty well but I regret only doing cardio since I started (November). Weight loss slowed down considerably lately though (as expected). I still have a chubby face, a fat tummy and love handles though.

Of course it's good, but I just find it hilarious someone would post that unironically in this thread

There's some truth that metabolism differs in people due to genetics but it's barely a 5% difference. What matters more is environmental like exercise

you need to gain muscle mass, at that weight i bet you look like a skinny fat skele with no muscles. you should look lean as hell around 140-150, I'm same height

I know people on this board say this, but I have an aunt who eats a lot more than I ever did, she snacks a lot and eats sweet things. Yet she has been underweight her entire life. She must be an exception to the rule but I'd like to know what causes this.

I'm not making things bigger than they are either, I've spend several days with her before and she eats pancakes for breakfast, eats cake/cookies with every drink, munches on candy all day, eats massive portions for dinner. I don't know how it is possible.

Just fast you stupid fucks. I lost 50 lbs already and I feel fucking fantastic

You can eat candy all day and still be thin, you just don't eat anything else. There was a nutritionist who ate nothing but Twinkies and lost 20+ pounds, it's all about calories. There are certain medical conditions where you don't digest certain foods or all the food you eat but those conditions usually lead to malnutrition.

Already told you, she does eat everything else.

Show before and after pics user.

Estimating calories can be impossibly hard. I'd try and carefully count her daily intake sometime just out of curiosity.

Have you considered that she fasts? I can eat 6000 calories in a day, fast for 2 days and break even

Why do so many people yoyo so hard when survival mode is a meme?

They go on a diet and lose weight but never fix the bad eating habits. Diet ends, eat like before the diet that got them fat

I bougjt 9kg dumbbells from Amazon

They look very heavy
How much time will it take, assuming 3 days of training per week, in order to have some good biceps and triceps?

>doing a 5x5 strength routine while on a deficit

What is a 5x5 routine?

Mommy saying "Thank you sweetheart. Don't forget to shut the dishwasher down"

5 sets of 5 reps

How much could I raise my BMR by bulking up?
I am reading stuff like a 10% after 6 months of training but what about 1-2 years?

I've been fat and sedentary my whole life.
I'm an absolute beginner and stronglifts has an easy to use app which is good enough for me.
I just want to build a bit of muscle to reduce loose skin as I lose weight. I'm not going all out until I get to my goal weight.

>Don't forget to shut the dishwasher down
wot

Negligible, metabolism is a meme cope for fatties with no willpower who quit at first plateau.

>Ankle weights
Is wearing these to work a feaseable option for extra gains? I know it won't make you look like chun-lee from the waist down but would it help any?

I don't know the 10% increase seem pretty decent.
Once I am down at a decent bf% I don't wanna count calories like an autist anymore. If bulking up provides you with a guaranteed ~200 extra deficit than it's well worth it i'd say.

>added mass causing daily calorie expenditure to be higher is a meme
come on now

That’s not metabolism that’s TDEE brainlet fuck

The dishwasher stopped the washing and I had to turn it down, otherwise it would have been consuming power

Oh, yeah, two heart emoji, for sake of completeness

I love my mommy, ok?

Doesn't make a practical difference. Adding mass will allow him to consume more calories and stay at or under maintenance than if he didn't have that mass. That's what he's asking about.

I do not know, but I can tell you that I was able to do my 1.3 km AND my 400mt section quite easily without them on Monday, but I struggled on the 1.3km part and had to repeat the 400m section, since I could not end the route, 3 times before completing it

It was kinda hard desu, but I do have strangely powerful legs, even if I have never exercised on them

I would not suggest wearing them on work, they are quite bulky (and you would look like a fool)

>If the same person cycles for 10 miles for 50 minutes (again at a fixed speed of 12mph) then they would burn 635 calories.

>Finally if the same person cycles for 30 miles (at a fixed speed of 12mph) then they would burn 1,905 calories.

How true is that statement? Can I calculate that and just take 200 off to sound more plausible? Cause burning 2k in a few hours makes no sense to my body.

Only eating food I cook. Low calorie options and small portions, less carbs, eating once to twice a day. If i snack its a banana at most. Gym 4 times a week. Baseball training once to twice a week and playing once a week. Walking almost everywhere now.

>how it is working out so far
Been at it 16 days and lost 4 kilos. It's going well. Cooking everyday helps most. Simple quick meals get me into good habits. Hardest part is when i go out and people want shit food. Im at the point now where that appeals to me less and less.

I used to have a pair of 10 pound ones when I was a kid, and damn they would drag you down after a while.

Lucky for me I work with one other person who probably wouldn't give a shit. But idk though, it was just a thought

I know that feel bro, part of the reason I've gained this extra weight (I was 270 for a long while) was having more money and hanging out with my friends more so we ate out a lot. Now if we go out, I don't want to get wierd looks.

BWW cheese curds are good but damn. Those and some wings and a beer...

Though beer is still a weakness I'm going to have to confront at some point. Haven't had one yet but damn you, heffeweisen.

>I don't want to get wierd looks.
Never gonna make it. Stop giving a fuck what they think of you and/or get friends who aren't fucking faggots and would be happy for you for making healthy lifestyle choices instead of ostracizing you for not participating in gluttony and sucking down beers with them.

Nothing wrong with a beer every day.
Hell i drink 2 sometimes and am still losing weight.

>start taking creatine
>weight loss stalled for a week because of the extra water weight

w-weight doesn’t matter it’s the m-mirror right bros

In my opinion no. I would rather look not fat. Weight is secondary and for my own good if I wanna be more active.

I'm sure you'll lose weight when your hair starts to go
