After a few weeks of trying to lose weight unsuccessfully from just calorie management and IF alone I finally got my fat ass to go to the gym this evening. I’m really glad I did, I still feel those workout endorphins. I’ll be sure to go every day, if not every other day from here on.
Justin Torres
have fun in the morning t. couldn't straighten my hand properly for three days
From 6”2 265 about three weeks ago to weighing 251 this morning. So excited. We are all going to make it bros.
Cooper Turner
You shouldn't go full out the first two weeks of working out if you've been sedentary
Matthew Jenkins
my mental fortitude is starting to break
im like 90% of my way through my weight loss but i keep having days with 1,000 useless calories extra and it keeps ruining my progress
Gavin Ross
Losing weight has consumed my thoughts. I haven't gone longer than 20 minutes in the past two-three months without thinking about how to lose weight even faster, I start getting itchy if I sit down for too long and I compulsively measure and weigh myself every day.
Unless your classmate graduated 3 years ago in NZ :/

You're in /fat/, all of us have at least somewhat decent leg muscles from lunging this much weight around for years, but it's still less of a cushion than having a fatass.

I want to buy a vitamin D supplement but I have a few questions first...
1. How much concentration is too much? Is 10,000 IU unhealthy to take every day? What is the minimum recommended daily amount?
2. Should I buy a vitamin D combo with another nutrient? I have bad bones and knees, generally lack Magnesium and Potassium.
3. Where should I buy and what's a reasonable price? What's a trusted seller?
Carter Nguyen
1.) 10,000 IU is absolutely fine for a guy. I’ve been taking 10kIU for years with no problem. I only take it during winter though because where i live there is very little sunlight
2.) fish oil motherfucker, 1-2 grams per day minimum. 1-2g total EPA and DHA, read the label
3.) I just buy them from the local wallgreen’s.

you guys seem particularly autistic, so here's a channel for you retards to chat in discord link: discord.gg/dTwK4Z
Dylan Scott
Discordfags get out
Jose Scott
/fat/ is exactly the threshhold of autism it should be, as is. It doesn't need the push. Also ideally there's mass turnover and people leave, not stay to make friends.
Luis Mitchell
Can't wait to not belong here - but will help out once made it
Nicholas Gray
That's cool too.

I plan on staying here and helping newfats when I finally make it. We're (fat) brothers in arms.
Believe me if you hit at least 5” hard you’ll be fine once you get to that size you can figure out how to use it halfway decently. Depends on how much weight you can loose there but it’s not over yet user.
Jace Adams
I "only" weigh 230 and my flaccid penis is well over 2" but god damnit my fupa is massive enough to cover it. Shaking the mortal phobia of forgetting to zip my pants lest someone see my freakish baby dick is one of my primary motivators
how good are dick gains when you lose weight? pubic bone fat is a fucking ripoff
Tyler Wood
iktfb. ill probably stick around infrequently just to remind myself and help nice dumb posters. but its like graduating from college and hanging around college. eventually you gotta move on to the next level.
Daniel Evans
Depends on fat distribution. Which is genetic. I had barely anything on my pubic bone even at 30%+ bf, but I've got fat fucking thighs n hips so my ding dong looks tiny anyway.
Justin Powell
my dicks already getting harder and more swole looking/veiny. and ive got quite a bit of pubic fat short changing me.
CICO and TDEE was a great decision
Ian Nelson
Lost 60 lbs, gained over an inch I think.
Isaiah Cooper
Day 2 of only 1200cals or less. I managed 1100cals. Hopefully this pays off next week.
Jaxon Wright
My dad is a member of KofC so I have to go to pic related dinner I’m glad it’s chicken as it could be much worse However I don’t really know how I will estimate the Cals accurately - for example, is white sauce one particular recipe or could it be anything? My current plan is just to stay away from the bread/rolls and dessert and assume the meal is 2000 Cals which I really hope is an overestimate (I realize without portion sizes it’s even harder to estimate but I can’t imagine things being too big) Does anyone think that’s not enough Calories, or have any other tips on something else that should be avoided?
Yeah I read it's estimated you get an inch per 30-50lbs. Also well done lad
Mason Sanders
When it's impossible to estimate I just assume it's a cheat meal that went over my calories and just accept shit happens sometimes. Often times it's not over the calorie limit but how can anyone know without asking the chef to detail all the ingredients and their quantities.
>how much oil? butter? is this low fat or high fat cream? milk full?
it's just impossible to know, gotta be realistic imo
Jordan Morales
Alright, keep at it. Gets easier to go lower the more you stay low.
Adrian Diaz
5,000 ui is recommended. 2,000 would be minimum. Get MK-7 Vitamin K-2 100mcg. It's good for bones and counteracts some of the damage Vitamin D does to bones. I take them separately as it's cheaper than getting them together.
god damn i hate people who dont write summaries or conclusions or have headings like im gonna read a fucking bunch of words looking for the relevant info
i dont even eat popcorn i just wanted to learn something
Connor Moore
I just got back from the gym and feel like a million bucks, bros.
Brody Butler
well lads it happened, i cracked and ate about 700cal worth of lollies at work. they fucking put then in a jar in the break room and tonight i just was eating them without even thinking.
still probably under the 500cal deficiet but im fucking so disappointed in myself. 25 days i've been strong and tonight i just crack.

> I was so retarded, I thought waistline is across bellybutton. Turns out it is not. My bf is 21%, not 29% boys!
Bros, last month I thought "Fuck it." and started to do cardio, stop drinking and go into diet. I lost 10kg and noticed that following this mentality isn't that hard.
"Fuck it" are normally the words that precede the worst life choices I've made, so nice to see them get put to good use.
Brandon Martinez
You'll see that you'll be losing a lot of weight at first. As you progress, it'll get harder. Keep it up, user.
Liam White
what should I do then
Ryan Cox
Fat anons recommend me some fun vidya. The least thinking the better probably. I'm just sitting around ensuring I don't eat calories and this is gonna last months and it gets kinda repetitive.
Brayden Hall
How can you not be losing weight with 'calorie management'. Just count the calories and eat under TDEE. If you don't lose weight it's water retention and you're still losing fat and eventually the water will release.

>Ori and the Blind Forest. this looks nice ill try get a torrent
my brain hasnt come to terms yet that sitting around doing no exercise is better than exercising and moving all day for weight loss. its like my mind feels guilt that its being lazy or something. sooner or later itll get the message that relaxing on low calories isnt lazy its correct. lazy is just some retarded term people use because they think being seen to be busy means theyre doing something worthwhile i suppose. would never occur to them you can get rich and healthy by just sitting around and having passive investments working their way. but i digress.

>t sitting around doing no exercise is better than exercising and moving all day for weight loss Sure, for weight loss it is. But if you actually want to get a body that looks good, you should move some weights.
Brody Perry
def face gains. cheek lines and eyes looking deeper. keep the 2nd pic beard imo.
We're very similar, I started at 124kg and am aiming for ~90kg. 117kg here so you're way ahead of me.
Ryder Williams
i do lift weights but thats 3 hours out of like 100 waking hours. so almost 99% of the time i'm just waiting around on CICO. previously i thought i needed to do hours of cardio, I'd do an hour on the treadmill or go cycling for an hour. useful but not anything that'll assist me in weight loss goals which is the objective.
Brandon Lee
I was good all day. I kept my calories under 1000 and had low carbs and high protein. Then After work I was at the gas station trying to find some more deenz and stumbled across a 2 pack of ding dongs that made their way into my stomach with dinner.
Ethan Fisher
What's a good way to lose pubic fat?
Camden Flores
I'm pretty sure my roommate has used the stationary bike more than me. Albeit for pissy 5 minute sessions.
I hate that bikeseat so goddamn much. Wonder if bikeseat mounting is standard. Or if the stationary bike's mounting is standard. I'll figure something out.
Michael Bennett
lose fat. you cant target one area, you need to just lose fat until your body magically chooses to lose pubic fat.
Brody Diaz
are you that guy who i told bikes were noisy and the seats were uncomfortable
Michael Adams
Yes. In my defense, this thing is as quiet as a really quiet thing.
But hot damn, you were right about the seat. I was prepared for discomfort, not feeling like I mentioned "weaboo" in the wrong office. Like gingerly pulling your own ass off a red hot iron poker.
try a pillow? should soften it and cover the whole area
Anthony Wright
>96kg I have to lose 11kg go be considered human again, so far I have lost 20.
11kg might not even be enough to be lean, but the way I see it, every kg after I reach 85kg will really make a difference. There's is no way, it's fucking impossible to be fat after reaching 77kg, specially taking into account that I lift.
Hopefully next month I will only have 5kg left to lose.
Christopher Walker
Been stacking various assortments of pillows, towels, cushions, and anything else that's soft and incapable of resistance being shoved under my fat ass. Makes it tolerable.
Thing is though, I like to ride this bike like it's a $20 hooker in the blocked handicapped stall in a sleepy midwestern KFC, while tripping on a homemade mixture of expired ketamine and powdered orange juice: for hours on end.
Thinking of getting one of these. Something like it. Probably not this one in particular, I don't think I need a backrest on this thing. Can't pop wheelies on a stationary bike quite yet.
>switch to OMAD >lose weight rapidly but eat like shit >decide to eat some veggies for my daily meal >can't finish the plate because it tastes like shit >end up getting barely any calories >it's been 6 hours now HOLY FUCK I'M HUNGRY, veggies are a meme
Connor Smith
I prefer brown rice for fiber gains but it probably doesn’t matter.
Nathaniel Garcia
Don't worry, brother, I haven't eaten in 2 days and don't plan to start until I can see the future when I close my eyes.
It's pure profit. Probably.
Justin Perez
Nigga you need to season veggies and put a little oil on. They taste good when you cook them right
Zachary Walker
You mix them in an existing dish, roast them, season them, whatever. They're like fluff to fill you up.
Asher Butler
pretty kino. when i get bored ill cook that up. mmm chicken rice and broccoli. based probably chinese poster
Blake Jones
Nigga go buy the frozen zoodles (WITHOUT sauce) and havem that way it it's a texture thing. There's a whole world of frozen veggies that have been changed to appeal to 5 year olds.
