Happy hungry Wednesday anons! I hope everyone is doing well. After a weekend of celebrating being under 200, I got back up to 200...so guess I'm never doing that again. Anyways we are changing our lifestyle, and it is a big step but we can all do it! Remember, count your calarios, get plenty of exercise and drink tons of water, because we are all gonna make it!!!
Nice to see the quotes around people. >sw 310 >cw 211 >gw 180ish >height 6’2 I broke a bad plateau this summer and I am happy to see progress. Can’t wait to get to sub 200. 194 is not overweight for my height. Anyone stay in this general after loosing the weight?

80-90 g of small tomatoes, rounded up, counted as 100g 80-90 g of marinated shellfish, rounded up, counted as 100g 250ish g of goat cheese, rounded up, counted as 300g
Realistically, this should be way under 1500 kcal. Why do I feel so bad and full then? Is it because I omad-ed it? I used to eat kilograms of cakes and trash fast-food. Am I genuinely developing an eating disorder? 191 cm, 88 kg.
You're like a bizarro version of me. Same height and your starting weight, current weight, and goal weight are all around 10lbs higher than mine ()
Luis Howard
I don't have a goal weight nor a target date. I hope that I'll regocnize my goal upon reaching there, whenever that might be, even if it isn't anything concrete. Probably wont go below a normal BMI though.

I had initially set my goal for 200-210 pounds but I think I'm ready to start bulking again, and I really really fucking hate not eating at all. I only have a little bit of fat left but it's still noticeable. I also have MASSIVE purple-red stretch marks on my stomach which give a pretty good identification of how much I've lost.
Should I start bulking now? What do you anons think?
Also keep in mind I only make about 3500USD a month though that's been scaled quite quickly so it might improve. Regardless I'm still on a tight budget.
I didn't say I don't have a goal, I just don't have a goal weight, goal BMI nor a goal bf%, it's much more abstract than that. Rejoicing in every gram I lose is good enough for me so I guess I'm reaching and setting new goals daily.
As far as a specific date goes, it hardly matters. I just do what I can and I'll be done when I'm done. And if we really think about, none of us will ever really be done, it's a journey of a lifetime.
Down 53.9 kg, currently at 97.9 kg with a BMI of 28.60.

Sup guys. Not a fatfuck and never have been one.
But I hope all you guys are gonna make it. Have a good day!
Juan Cook
Appreciate it user yes I'd also like to know
Luke Moore
People who do meme diets like IF, keto, etc are the same idiots that fall for get-rich-quick-schemes, MLM scams, etc and are a turnoff to femjak.
Jonathan Ramirez
>push up Do you mean pull up? I could easily do 50kg bench press but can‘t do a fucking pull up. For push ups do shit for your breast like swimming, get small weights do butterfly etc
ive heard swimming is a good general exercise but is it that effective of a workout? and yeah push up is what im gunning for but pull up is a pipe dream at this stage i just want to do what i couldnt when i was in school
Samuel Cruz
Then go get some weights, like 5kg and do butterfly, bench press etc.
Leo Nelson
keep dieting fatty youre still fat
Blake Perez
anons?
William Foster
Breaststroke builds up your deeper muscles. Also it trains your whole body. After like 1 hour swimming my whole upper body gets buffed up.
Michael Ward
When you use the TDEE calculators, what would be considered exercise to them?
I lift everyday except Sundays, but I wouldn't consider it to be "heavy exercise" with lots of increased heart rate. I also jog 1 mile about 3-4 times per week, but including my warm up walk, that only lasts less than 15 minutes.
Jayden Gonzalez
If you can't do a pullup, I would start by just doing the negative motion. Just get chair and step off the chair with your chin above the bar. Lower yourself as slow as you can. Do 4 sets of 8-10 reps.
Jayden Hill
Always do your TDEE calculations as sedentary and work around that. Don't add calories onto it from exercise and don't eat "earned calories" from exercise either.
Xavier Cook
> 4 chicken tendies (240 grams) > 60 grams of low fat cheese > 4 tortillas > 750 kcals Holy shit MFP makes planning meals so god damn easy. What did /fat/ have for lunch today?
This last 20-15 lbs is fucking killing me. I've lost 100 lbs in the past 2 years but since June I've been hovering at the same weight just 15ish lbs away from my goal.
I cut out all sweets (except for a random cookie or something every couple weeks at a social occasion or something) and worked up to running 2 miles 4 days a week, but then I started drinking more beer.
Still hovering at the same weight so this week I finally got mad and decided to get strict and stick to just one beer per week and not eating any kind of snack or anything outside of my carefully portioned 2 meals per day.
Post your "Calories Consumed" report for the last 90 days (MFP) or 8 weeks (Cronometer).
Also post your height and current weight
Jayden Morgan
Anyone else see the thread on Reddit about the guy that lost 300+ pounds? his skin was a fucking mess. Is that going to happen to me? I need to lose around 120 pounds.
>Also post your height and current weight 5'11" 180 lbs currently
Never did a calorie tracker- for most of my weight loss I just stuck strictly to 2 carefully portioned meals a day so it was pretty easy just add it up in my head.
I've just gradually gotten less strict about it this summer. Also haven't been getting on Jow Forums much this summer. Steady lurking of these threads plus /fph/ will keep me strong to power through these last 20 lbs over the next few months.
Gabriel Stewart
Come on man you knos what to do. Up that run to 4 miles 4 days a week and cut another 500 cals a day. And stop with the beer.
You'll almost definitely have some loose skin. It surely won't be as bad as someone who lost 300+ lbs but even if you get down to a healthy BF% it will probably still be quite some time and you'll probably need to do some lifting before you'll look "good" without a shirt on.
Don't let that discourage you though. Buy some undershirts that are a size too small and you'll look fine with clothes on. It's still many times better than being fat.
Liam Flores
> Not using a calories tracker Never gonna make it The first few tens of pounds are easy since you're a fatty and simply eating like a "normal" person would make you lose weight, but once you start slimming down you really need to get into the nitty gritty of things to optimize your meals. Being a manlet doubly so since your TDEE will be super low. Those "carefully portioned" meals could easily bring you to maintenance or above. Count your fucking calories.
Daniel Lee
120lbs and 300 are a lot different.
Pic is me after ~100lbs lost. A little loose skin on my ass (where I lost most of the weight) but nothing terrible and should fill in with squats (hopefully). None yet on my stomach, but still have a huge gut.
I'm not saying I can't lose the weight dumbass. Read my post again. I'm just saying this last little bit is more challenging than it has been up until now. So I'm doubling down on my resolve and getting serious about it once again.
I would have thought you'd be happy for me but your derision is probably even better motivation. I don't need a fucking app to keep track of how many calories I eat.
William Long
damn i remember seeing these images bro
you're well on your way to making it
Parker Reed
It's just like it sounds. If you eat a lot of sodium your body starts absorbing water which will lead to a sense of stagnation when in reality you're still burning fat but getting bloated with water. Nobody posting here should worry about water retention because the goal as a fatty is to get rid of fat. You should worry about your sodium consumption because it can lead to high blood pressure, but you shouldn't worry because of the water retention. Just don't shower your food in salt or seasonings and you will be fine. Also avoid high sodium meals like lunch ham and weenies.

Daniel Anderson
> I don't need no garn nigger darng komputer i can use a typewriter like when i was young now those were for real men Ok grandpa.
Nobody here will cuddle you if you're almost at the goal and not doing shit properly. If you're a 150 kilos fatty it's easier to accommodate a beer or six every once in a while, so no big deal, but when you start getting near your goal you need to get serious if you want to make it. You're so far into it yet failing at basic concepts explained in pretty much every thread.
Jaxon Moore
the last pounds are definitely the hardest to lose, however, here's a question for you. Have you been eating like this for a while? How do you know your TDEE has not gone down and you need to eat even less?
Kevin Bell
> Not painting your mammoth meat calories in the wall of the cave for trug to mir no gon mak it
I've already lost 100 lbs so of course my TDEE has gone down...
But for this home stretch I'm going to to stick to 1200 calories/day with one 2000 calorie "cheat day" per week. I'm sure someone here's going to shit on the idea of a cheat day now, but I'll be sure to post back here in a few months when I've hit my goal.
William Sanchez
>but when you start getting near your goal you need to get serious if you want to make it. But the whole point of my post was to say that I finally have decided to "get serious."

Isaac Rivera
how many calories so far today? I eat a lot of veggies (about 2lbs daily) and stay full.
Grayson Adams
You probably have muscle, but also a lot of fat. Post body
Waist size at navel about 46. Where I wear my pants is 38. Got fitted for a suit recently.
Luis Gutierrez
>took the sleeve pill little over a month ago >just broke 40lbs lost this morning Another 60lbs to go boys and I'm pretty sure I can sneak most of it in by the end of the year.
So assuming that is accurate (and that is inches, not the size they gave you), your waist:height ratio is 0.63. Healthy cutoff is 0.50. For your height, that would be 36".
You need to lose at least 10 inches, so 80lbs is probably being generous. Losing 100lbs will put you in a healthy BMI range, which is probably closer to what you need to do. You can always re-evaluate as you get closer, like I have.
Jaxon Jackson
>FatMax
Lincoln Russell
BMI is still something that is used? I thought we were supposed to go off bf% because BMI isn't an accurate form of measurement.
Juan Sanchez
BMI is much better for large groups than for individuals, but it gives you a rough estimate of where most people should be based on height. That's why I couched it with "probably closer" and saying you can re-evaluate as you get closer.
Since I only have 3 measurements from you (height, weight, waist size) I'm working with what I've got.
Why does keto work so well for so many people but everyone on this board fails at it? There is a fat old guy at my gym who lost shitloads of weight and stopped needing pills for his diabetes on it.
Ryan Allen
Literally me lmao. Except I cant do any pushups because my left leg has nerve damage.
6'2" You should at least set something to aim for like "lose 30lbs by the end of the year) sort of thing. It helps keep you on track instead of just meandering. I get really fucking hairy (back, chest, legs) and when I was heavier I got really hot and sweaty due to the fat+hair combo so I trimmed it pretty frequently.
I don't even like pickles, they're fucking disgusting.
Julian Miller
So does my right leg, why is that an excuse?
Alexander Howard
Technically someone else in these threads gave me the idea but I keep mentioning it. Someone said it was too satly. I think it is fucking delicious.
Suck on the pickle or no girl will sucks yours.
Nathan Richardson
>Suck on the pickle or no girl will sucks yours. Then I'd rather stay an incel, I'm not going anywhere near that.
