How long does it take for you guys to get used to fasting and the temptation to eat? I've been keeping to my IF schedule mostly fine a week in and i'm still waiting for that moment where I just don't give a fuck about wanting to eat food. I keep getting moments where my brain tells me "I should go find something to eat real quick". Never really realized how often I get food for practically no reason but I keep getting the temptations and I want it to stop. Every day I wait and prepare to eat food the second my fast is over and it makes the hours leading up take for forever even if i'm busy with something else.
How long did it take for you guys to stop getting the urges or how did you get them to stop practically completely?
I want to kiss her just for those burger crumbs LADS IM SO HUNGRY

I have become diabetic at 31 and want to lose weight to reverse it enough to stay off medication. I was 240lb/6'1" at my heaviest but am at 215 now and it is more manageable.
John Carter
They never go away.

It's all in your head me being weak it took me 3 years but my efforts were half assed and I wasn't really into it, I was the laziest guy on earth so there's that realize that hunger always comes in waves and if you can weather it for a couple of minutes it disappears and it'll feel like you were never hungry to begin with. It's magical also take appetite blunting supplements like garcinia forskolin, yohimbine hcl and maybe nicotine gum if you don't mind it. Those help, and if you can't hack long term fasts (7+ day) then fast for 5 days, eat for 2 days on the weekends and repeat this until you're thin. You can lose 2.5-3kg/week on this, easily. It's what I do since I enjoy eating on the weekends and still losing a lot of weight. Don't even need snake juice for this
Chase Watson
Because I want a gf and I also genuinely think i'll look really good if I lose weight and get fit though maybe i'm just being a bit delusional and hoping i'll look chad-like
Tyler Robinson
Anyone have recommendations for a food scale?
Austin Walker
I have a horrible god complex and I want people to think they're in the presence of royalty when I'm around. Greek god mode is probably impossible after spending my teen years obese, but I'm sure I can at least get myself to 8/10 if I work hard enough.
Depends where you live, but I went to Prisma website (local store chain) and searched for one and got the cheapest for 10 euros. I haven't used it much though. I already know quite easily how many calories are in what.
But yeah I also dont know how to use it.
Angel Perez
Ozeri is nice.
I'd look for the following: *Digital *Backlit *Accurate to +-1g *Large enough surface to put a plate on and weigh in the plate *Smooth top that can be wiped down
I don't have super strong opinions beyond that
Henry Long
Can we get a /thin/ for skinny dudes who wanna gain weight?
Does anyone here do keto/track their ketones? I'm too poor to get a meter or the sticks, and i'm doing OMAD but I'm curious how i would tell if I was dipping into ketosis at times. I restrict carbs a bit but not keto macros yet.
It never stops. You just need to remember that nothing tastes as good as thin feels.
Jose Garcia
eat less than 30 carbs a day and you'll be in ketosis. No need for sticks/meters
Liam Wright
But how can you tell, is there a noticeable change in feeling?
Adam Thomas
I just gotta get some self control i think.
I also got a job at the start of that month and i work a lot now but i cant be doing this, Fucking kill me
Benjamin Gonzalez
you might get the keto flu for a few days as you adapt to ketosis. You should feel better after that, but ime nothing drastic like some of those keto preachers talk about. You also will lose a bunch of water weight typically that doesn't match how much your eating.
Jeremiah Baker
In the past I always thought that eventually I would get around to losing weight. But I'm 31 already, so I need to just get it done.
I want to get a GF but there are so many obstacles in my way. I need to get a driver's license, get a job, lose weight and then acquire GF. Losing weight is probably the least necessary, but it is the one I can do without leaving the house.
Joshua Martinez
My TDEE is 2.7k a day, and I'm doing 1.2k cals a day since that is how much I need to do to lose 2lbs a week. Losing 1-2lbs a week is still healthy.
Grayson Walker
I wanna eat bros, it's torturous being in a house and having a family of other fatties who buy a bunch of good tasting food. All I keep thinking like every other minute is "man I should have some of this, it tastes so good!" Hopefully when I finally get my own place and buy my own shit I won't think about it as much since it won't be in reach at any moment when i'm at home
Jeremiah Hughes
You can eat that good shit user. Just count your calories.
Ian Morris
>Hopefully when I finally get my own place and buy my own shit I won't think about it as much since it won't be in reach at any moment when i'm at home Yeah, that is great help. Being in unsupportive environment is really difficult. If are are able to do some progress under that conditions, my salutations to you. I wasn't able to do so.
David Morgan
>get to eat fast food >still under TDEE feels good
>I can see the same thing at home at 4k in a video game Why even go outside? Joking though, Red Dead Redemption 2 actually does make me want to go outside more and go on hikes and stuff and appreciate the beauty of nature
here is a secret, when you're a five foot tall woman your TDEE is actually 1200
Jose Lee
if your calories are under your bmr then you really need to stay at your fucking bmr. change the workouts, mess with your macros, if its under bmr you are losing muscle more than you are fat and its just plain unhealthy
Gavin Bailey
Hahahahaha. Women were a mistake.
David Flores
until you get snakes, spiders, centipedes and fuck knows what else all over you
Nathaniel Peterson
Start fasting asshole, it'll fix your metabolism I binge all the time and never gain an ounce, I wasn't always this way. Fasting saved me
Brayden Evans
why do you keep removing the dos and donts from the op?
Angel Watson
didn't catch that. stop doing that you anime faggot
James Carter
Because they are common sense.
Jacob Hughes
I've been a fatty since grade 5. Tonight I found a shirt from grade 7 which was large for me then but I quickly outgrew it with fat like a year later.
I put it on tonight, at 20 years old, after dieting and exercising since the summer. It fit. It was even a little baggy. Nothing feels better than this, I'm not even at my goal weight yet. We're gonna make it guys
you're right user. hopefully after i fix it i can help fix their problem too.
Angel Cruz
Losing weight takes no time, just eat less calories. Going to the gym is only slightly understandable, and that's if you're the 12-hour-shift museum user.
Christian Roberts
Anybody here use collagen pills? Does it help with the loose skin after weight loss? I wanna hear some experience if any of you guys are down to share.
Brehs it so easy. I dont eat breakfast, i have one ararmark meal for lunch then a can of condensed soup for dinner. Maybe a protein bar. Im never hungry, and ive lost like 15lbs this semester, without any stress at all. Im getting laid, doing well in class (engineering), making friends and losing weight. Life is good.
Thanks Jow Forums about a year ago i was i came here and after a few weeks was so disgusted with my body something snapped. Now im eating healthy and am much better off mentally.
Brayden Clark
time to workout, up your shitposting so I have something to read when i come back. k peacout by
>went over calorie limit >decided fuck it and had a fuckload more food >probably over 4000kcal right now idk i dont want to add it up
why am i like this
Wyatt Morris
Because your making a mistake lead to a kneejerk reaction of self-hating and self-destructive behaviour. Nothing you can do about it now, just do better next time.
I did some ab exercises and I feel like shitting my guts out, not food, but the actual guts
Anthony Young
pls respond
Cameron Cruz
You are asking in the wrong thread. This is lose fat thread not lose gains thread.
Daniel Carter
>skip breakfast >eat only something little for lunch >skip dinner >eat kebab late at night >hm how many cals do they usually have >'average kebabs have 1000+ cals, oftentimes even 2000'
This. You were going to binge on Christmas cookies anyways. It's better to eat like shit rarely than to eat like shit all the time.
Henry Hill
Guys outside of fit don't like fat girls.
Adrian Russell
a fucking piece of paper and a pen use your brains fucking zoomers
Jace Bell
I think it's finally time for me to leave /fat/. My BMI hit the normal range this week for the first time in 6 years. Goodbye and godspeed.
Jaxson Jones
>day 29 into diet and exercise >still obese >afraid to use scale since I just ate breakfast >feel my muscles yes >left shoulder feels in pain >don't feel any more alert or energetic >gotta keep this up for 4 to 8 more months to see any real results >I've never spent this much of my savings before on anything else as a NEET >have to buy food every week to live healthy since "fresh" veggies don't last long and are expensive h-how do I stay motivated? maybe I was meant to stay fat forever and die faster? even if I do loose all this fat I'll still have loose skin and look ugly right?
I did, but it doesn't last more than 5 days at best.
Aaron Scott
Is hot water in lemon a meme or does it actually do anything?
Christopher Phillips
>since "fresh" veggies don't last long and are expensive Cabbage and broccoli and mushrooms last for like a month. I hope you're keeping your veg in the fridge rather than letting it rot in a bowl somewhere.
