It went from 5.3=>5.6

Weird. Perhaps you crossed some invisible age treshold where statistically blablabla according to your weight
Lucas Nelson
Just downloaded MyFitnessPal and I don't like a few things
1: you can't set a goal date 2: you can't set your own Max calories per day
If there is a way please tell me.

>lose a bunch of weight >just enough to be on the upper limit of healthy BMI >literally 24 >everyone keeps calling me "skinny" and tells me its not healthy >fuck the haters imma keep going >need to lose another 15 to be right in the middle of healthy weight
I did it guys, guess that means its time for me to go. Good luck to all of you.
See you on the outside.
Xavier Walker
Cronometer is better
Austin Wilson
You care to give examples? I have no issue switching to something better but you just saying it's better isn't much of a reason.
Austin Watson
You can change the calories and macro ratios in myfitnesspal just go to goals and type in the calories and adjust the percentages.
90% of people who complain about mfp are just people who don’t know how to use mfp...
Brandon James
You can't set a goal date but you can set your daily calories. It's in the Goals section
It's calculated by dividing your total cholesterol by your HDL. My cholesterol dropped, but my HDL (good cholesterol) dropped more than my ldl (bad cholesterol)
Gabriel Gray
>90% of people who complain about mfp are just people who don’t know how to use mfp...
It's almost like I said I didn't know if it had that ability or not. Thanks user for telling me, I'll go change it. Also >Assuming I know a damn thing about macros or care.
Joshua Gutierrez
I find mfp to be better for brand name stuff and the social aspect (streaks, etc).
I find chronometer to be better for standard stuff, charts, and micronutrients.
Can you plateau on CICO? I'm not eating anywhere near matience but my weight loss has really started to stall. Over the past 2 weeks I should have lost about 2.5kg but I've only lost about 1.2kg. This is really killing my motivation ;_;
Carter Anderson
After 2 weeks with no alcohol, i destroyed my streak with 4 beer and pizza on monday and 6 beer on tuesday. Time to start over again.
Jack Brooks
Water weight, human error, lower activity level
Joseph Garcia
I'll try and be alot more strict with myself then I'm sure I'm not eating anywhere near as much as my weight is telling me so maybe I'm eating things that keep me retaining alot of water.
Carson Young
lol @ you
Charles Allen
It's that hard to try something for yourself and form an opinion?
You SEEMED capable of doing it with MyFitnessPal in the first place, did you run out of trying?
James Hall
>47082091 Thanks for a (you) none for (you) though
If MyFitnessPal works why would I try something else without reason too? He said it's better but that's only his opinion, I asked for factual examples and none were given so I have no reason to try it.
Isaiah Peterson
I'm not that guy but see my other post Both have their strengths/weaknesses
Kayden Thomas
See this is what I wanted, thank you dog for the Info, I appreciate it. May whoever you believe in bless your gains
Ian Richardson
Worst part of making it loss weight wise is gym and being pathetically weak (office rat) and Having no gym buddies.
Matthew Gray
look into refeed days if you are lifting heavy
Thomas Morris
I miscalculated my carbs yesterday, woke up out of keto and feeling shitty. What should I do /fat/her?
Jose Gutierrez
lost some good 15 kg on keto + omad. started lifting in April, 2017 too. after an injury somehow fell back to eating processed carbs again and now I feel like a junkie and I'm gaining back some kgs. Halp.
I can't believe I've never taken the ketopill before. It completely ended snacking, hunger, and I've only been able to eat 1000cals a day. Shame it's not very sustainable. My question is, if I do a week on a week off of keto (or maybe weekdays keto and weekends CICO) I'll still get most of the benefits right?
Isaiah Flores
How am I doing bros left was sometime last year at something like 250~lbs right is today at 203lbs
I've been tracking my measurements along with my weight (38-28-40), and I haven't lost anything off my hips in months. My bust and waist have shrunk, should I worry about ending up bottom-heavy?
Brayden Phillips
Doing well so far, just make sure you don't fall at the final hurdle.
Ayden Jones
LOL I just ate about 100g sugar in one go. Gonna crash soon brb
Cameron Hughes
eat a 1000 calorie deficit, and keep exercising. you can fast as long as you stick to 1k calorie deficit when you stop fasting
Hunter Russell
you are probably just addicted to the insulin rush the shitty food gives you
Levi Powell
>weekdays keto and weekends CICO this sounds better than the other option. >Shame it's not very sustainable Why do you think so?
Levi Morales
Doctor just told me my lipid count is above average I'm 26, 6'2" and 240lbs
I'm already 40 hours into a fast, should I keep going? I'm not feeling hungry, I'm fact I'm feeling pretty damn fine so I figured I should just keep on fasting. Don't wanna die tho, but I'm shedding weight like damn
Austin Robinson
>make sure you don't fall at the final hurdle
What is the final hurdle?
Alexander Cook
>Don't wanna die you won't. you can fast up to 7 days straight paying no special attention to it.
Sebastian Reyes
Gotcha, I'll attempt 88 hours, which is more than double where I'm at right now. Hope I'll be ok.
Look in the mirror and ask your self "is this really what I want to maintain?"
Levi Thompson
Your heading in the right direction bro
Robert Richardson
Hey anons! I hope everyone has been having a successful week of weight lose and good lifts! Remember we are halfway through the week, and a little closer each day to our goals. Remember, we are all gonna make it!
Body looking decent but you can tell you are a former fatty, start lifting it will help tremendously.
Brandon Jackson
Was out late, was tired, and weak and ended up eating a Jack in the Box homestyle chicken sandwich and some eggrolls; because it was all that was open. It was actually pretty decent too, which made me feel even more like a pile of shit.
With that bust I assume female? If so are you doing butt work outs, glutes, quads, etc, if so that's why.
Oliver Brooks
Fat fuck here sitting at a BMI of 28/29. I hit 20 a few months ago but recently I got the motivation to hit the gym. I've always been really insecure over my shit tier height (5'6) and I wanted to know if its possible to grow taller even at my age if I start making drastic dietary and lifestyle changes.
Robert Ward
I have been lifting for the past year or so. Stronglifts and Greyskull. I'm only eating 1500 a day though so it gets hard sometimes
Bentley Brown
I ate five or six rice krispie treats in one sitting last night because I was bored
I'm having trouble with stress eating because I am avoiding my responsibilities because theyre too stressful to even address. Adulthood is so daunting I hate it
Benjamin Murphy
me
Aaron Howard
They're not worth the momentary satsifaction you know you'll feel like shit afterwards.
Charles Foster
How do I quit the bread jew? That shit makes up 10% of my calories.
just eat less dude bro man I only eat two slices a day
Bentley Edwards
Are you eating white bread? Switch to whole wheat
If you're eating whole wheat then what are you eating it with? Sandwiches? Switch up your meals so that sandwiches or whatever you're eating it with isn't a part of your day.
Instead of eating bread, the trick is to not eat bread.
Henry Cook
Removing bread and other carby shit helps cut calories so much it's ridiculous.
>Breakfast: >4 poached eggs - 370 calories >4 bacon rashers - 180 calories If I'd grabbed a bacon and egg sandwich from the shop on the way to work that would have been 600 calories and I'd be hungry again in 2 hours. With this I have to remember to eat at lunch time.
>Lunch: >hunters sausage - 250 calories >50g cheese - 200 calories >Apple - 80 calories Cheese and apples are kino lunch. And I'm not a keto fag so I'm fine with fruit, but that's not exactly "carbs" is it? The slav section of the supermarket usually has a bunch of cooked sausages and shit so I get some for lunch.
>Dinner: >190g turkey breast steak - 260 calories >corn on the cob - 80 calories >greenbeans - not really worth counting
lmao 1490 calories. Fuck bread.
John Morales
>another nojak thread
Benjamin Martinez
I have been eating like shit for the last three weeks, and my weight has been stagnating at 85-86 kilos because of it. I've been doing this for 3 months now, and I almost made it, too. What do I do, bros?
Brayden Myers
Go stare in the mirror for 15 minutes. Set a timer. You’ll know at the end
Benjamin Howard
Ive been on a 1500 cal ish deficit and the last 1.5 weeks ive just stalled on the scale. But i feel like my subcutanious fat has been changing. Its more 'full' and 'dense' now and there seems to be less of it.
I hear the term 'autophagy' with fasting, could this be occuring cause im doing a modified fast with protein?
Michael Perez
Ive lied about my numbers so i can seem like im doing more impressive lifts on an anonymous armenian cockroach breeding forum
Forgive me father
Ryan Morris
MFP has progressively gotten worse over the years (bugs, stuff that was free got pushed to the pay app, etc) and they just had a major data breach a couple of months ago. Fuck that.
Henry Torres
I use it to keep track of calories and macros then every monday move that data to my open office spreadsheet. I have all my foods entered and itd be a pain to switch to something else for me.
David Bell
agreed. and cronometer doesnt seem to work well for me. it feels like there's room for a competitor to appear. software dev is my job and i've been thinking about making something to fill the gap. would anyone be interested, or suggest features that they'd like to see in some kind of calorie tracking app that other apps don't have (for free)? i basically want to know if there's demand elsewhere and it's worth my time.
Jose Flores
Well fuck it, failed because I couldn't resist eat some musli. Oh well, 40ish hours fasting ain't that bad anyway, and I've broken the fast with good food.
Jonathan Garcia
>would anyone be interested, or suggest features that they'd like to see in some kind of calorie tracking app that other apps don't have (for free)
If I were to switch to anything their database of stored foods must be very large, and have a scanning feature/phone app. That'd be my minimum to try some other service. A website that isn't down often is a plus. Strong tools to manipulate your own data would be nice, too.
Built in diet plans for the various meme diets that can give you demo meals that fit all macros and to fill your month's up with would be nice. Include recipes and places to buy ingredients for dumb newbies.
John Collins
How long does it take you to shit after eating? I've been fasting for the last 3 days and today, some 2 hours ago, I've had a large nutritious meal. Went to the gym, came back home and already took a nice slick shit. Before I turned my life around to a more healthy lifestyle, I used to barely shit every 2-3 days. Does fasting, intermittent fasting, healthy meals and exercise increase shit making potential? I don't eat a lot of fiber either (in fact I'm debating I should eat more fibrous stuff like roots and oats and cut a little from carbs)
Jace Gutierrez
my meals take about 18 hours to digest from what I can tell. I eat a lot of fiber and poop 1-4 times a day.
Alexander Carter
Is cutting most of my incoming carbohydrates a viable strategy for weight loss? I am already counting calories and I understand that calories in and out is the most important thing but can the nutrients affect my weight loss? A large portion of my daily food is carbs and I've been wondering about this.
Ayden Hall
by strong tools to manipulate your data, do you have any precise examples? things like that are easily done. a large database is pretty much only possible with the crowdsourcing method that MFP employs, but scanning is no problem, assuming the product is in the database. i was definitely thinking of incorporating various ways to calculate your macros, support for fast days, all the meme shit. and no complaining when your calories are too low. again meme shit like that isn't terribly difficult, so i'm not sure why they aren't part of MFP, outside of them thinking they need to take a moral stance rather than just being a tool. built in recipes is a cool idea, though i'm not sure how practical it is outside of the typical crowdsourcing for data. so any small community would struggle.
Jason Foster
There are a few strategies out their that manipulate your macros to achieve weightloss.
Most of us consume high amounts of protein to keep muscle while working out for example.
The body is complicated and cutting carbs can lead to a different form of fatloss for certain people.
>by strong tools to manipulate your data, do you have any precise examples?
Right now I move everything from MFP into a spreadsheet where I can make up graphs. I calculate the rate of fatloss per week or per any amount of days. I can calculate averages calories for a range. If I want I can find my bf% and compare it to my weight loss and figure out how much of that was fat or muscle.
>built in recipes is a cool idea, though i'm not sure how practical it is outside of the typical crowdsourcing for data. so any small community would struggle.
Lot of bodybuilders like to meal plan for up to a month and cook and freeze all the food they'll eat on a weekend. They can figure out different meals that fit into their daily macros and have x-amount of meals a day. There is a lot more upfront calculations and a lot less daily keeping track.
Using these recipes figuring out the micro and macros needed for the various diets, a system could be designed to perfectly create a meal plan spanning months and months if the user keeps inputting bodyweight data and follows the meals. The user should be able to ban certain types of food he doesn't like, delete a type of meal that keeps showing up..etc. Sort of like a do-it-yourself meal-planning companies for users.
Also a bunch of meals from cookbooks have already been entered into MFP, don't know the legality of swiping that sort of data.
Liam Sullivan
>system could be designed to perfectly create a meal plan spanning months and months that's really interesting. i know very little about that side of things though, as a fat guy. i'll start doing some research.
>Also a bunch of meals from cookbooks have already been entered into MFP, don't know the legality of swiping that sort of data. i do believe scraping publicly available data is legal. but i don't think MFP makes its data public, I.E. accessible without an account. whatever the odds they're on shaky grounds as it's mostly people typing data the read off the labels into their website.
anyway thanks for the ideas, i'll keep considering things and might start to work on something in a few weeks time.
Samuel Long
This is me right now. My goal/dream is to begome a fitness model. Please bully me or encourage me so i gather energy to do it.
>lose 100 pounds >fat in pubic area almost all gone >dick looks an entire inch bigger compared to when I was fat >get hard whenever I see it in the mirror
I'm looking forward to getting my dick back too, embrace it senpai
John Kelly
I do this and it works
Xavier Barnes
I'll add a couple more things that popped into my head in case you're still lurking:
You can ask users to rate recipes by taste, ease of making, price. And can use that data to better create meal plans.
Maybe also offload the burden of creating the perfect macros for all the various meme diets on users. Have a user define the scope of the macros they want, some tools to define when they want to do refeeds, cheat days (every 10 days every Wednesday, after 5pm eat food) etc.
Have the user meme diets available for others to easily copy and maybe rate, and promote the popular ones. Users will be able to make the perfect meal plan for themselves and your system will be able to pull recipes for that fit, and the arduous task of researching this stuff will be delegated and power users will have more freedom.

ate 2 slices of cake and a whole bag of those kettle cooked potato chips last night ;.;
