I'm experimenting with new diets right now and today I made rice with green tea and star anise and a small sausage in the pressure steamer Tastes amazing and unless the process of pressure cooking it added calories two bowls of the stuff is giving me the calories of a sandwich
Ryan Wood
Nothing to confess today padre. Had 2 cups of coffee since this morning, no solid food yet, and went walking for a couple hours. Also destroyed temptation
1400 calories in the breakfast 650 calories in the lunch 0 calories in the diner
and
650 calories burned at the gym
judge me :(
Thomas Stewart
Anons, I want to be more consistent with my breakfasts, 400-500 calories and healthy. But I get bored eating the same thing every day. Do any of you have a one-week rotation of healthy, satiating breakfasts I can make pretty easy? Open to suggestions. Right now I just have a piece of fuckin' toast every day, sometimes with 2 scrambled eggs. But it burns up too fast and I end up snacking not long after, and it's not that healthy.
how much does an appendix weigh? or a gallbladder?
in fact all of the defunct organs, I'll even toss my pancreas if it's cumbersome
Hudson Rogers
Why would you do that user? Weight in itself isnt unhealthy. Weight from excess bodyfat is unhealthy.
William Powell
Check out traditional chinkanese breakfasts, and I don't mean fast food like fried dough Stuff like tea eggs, lean-pork congee, doufu nao (idk what this is called in English but it's basically toufu with savoury sauce over it), and pork buns. Swap it around with Western dishes and traditional breakfasts from other parts of the world. Pottage makes for a fine breakfast.
Nolan Edwards
Bruh, learn the glory that is seasonings and sauces. Find shit to add to your eggs to make it even more delicious.
Learn to caramelize some fuckin' onions my nigga. Do like a whole 50lb bag of them shits and then freeze them.
Ayden Howard
How can you reach 1400 cal for breakfast? That’s 2 full meals for me.
Anthony Perez
Had a strong craving for fried mozarella sticks so instead I airfried some breaded mushrooms. That helped the craving some. I'll do better.
Jackson White
Don't develop an eating disorder, user. Don't cut out organs, either.
I fucking binged yesterday and ate 1k calories of snacks at work...
Jaxson Hughes
I just want to get my appendix removed cause someday I fear I’ll be far from a hospital, it’ll burst and I won’t be able to get treatment. Lt. Fuchida, the dude who led the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor had his removed because he didn’t want to take the chance of missing his duty because of an inflamed/burst appendix.
Jayden Sullivan
>First 30 straight days of a -1000 calorie deficit
Went from 187-171, feels like it's happening a bit to fast.
My mum has been practicing making wedding cake for my sister's wedding and I keep eating the practice cakes. Bless me father I've been eating a strict 1500 daily calorie intake for a month now and I'm cracking. On the plus side I've lost 16.5kg so far just 28.5kg to go
You might want to do a calorie comparison between regular mozzarella and a low-fat/fat-free version. Shave off a few calories if you can and still get what you want.
Bentley Ortiz
I've still lost 10 pounds in 3 weeks.
Caleb Jones
“It’s not paranoia if they’re really out to get you.”- John Lennon
Caleb Campbell
you have proof your appendix are conspiring against you?
hospitals are nice qt nurses giving you attention, lots of beeping machines just take some headphones because somebody on your ward will snore
Jaxon Evans
well, what the fuck are you eating and how do you feel?
Nolan Wilson
Keep it up, user! Don’t be discouraged when in a few weeks you lose less weight. It doesn’t mean you’re doing bad. Happens to everyone cause water weight sheds first and fast. But you’ll get where you want to go. You’re gonna make it, user! Just keep up the good work.
Caleb Stewart
Had potates with my beef at lunch. Two huge tacos for dinner. I fucked up I know. I tried to make the tacos as low cal as possible (only chicken and veggies, plus the bread).
Asher Kelly
>Trying to boast after that pig shit of a breakfast All it shows is you won't stick with a healthy lifestyle, you fat failure.
Jaxson Taylor
meat and soups mostly have a chicken wrap at 6pm almost every day, 300kcal, and packets of pork balls or tikka bites throughout the day, 50kcal a piece
my mood is okay, no better or worse than normal I've been keeping a journal of thoughts but only for strong feelings towards weight loss, just so I can nip any feelings of quitting in the bud
Josiah Nelson
I'll look into that, thanks. So far the "healthiest" versions of mozz sticks still has too many calories. Maybe I'll just make my own.
Landon Lee
I used to cook a lot of Japanese & Korean food, but in those cultures "breakfast" isn't that different than their food any other time of the day. They don't have so many "breakfast-specific" foods like we do in the West. I never thought about freezing caramelized onions, that's a good idea. Mainly I just want a simple rotation of no-think foods I can eat before work in the morning that aren't my lazy defaults. Thanks everyone, this board is good
Ryder Rodriguez
The fact there's like 19,000 versions of every food on MFP, some "corrected" some "accurate version" some "official version," really chaps my ass.
Anthony Evans
>move digital scale to room with large tiles because i thought it would be more consistent >step on >307 >move it an inch >310 >move it back to bathroom where it was originally >310 >step off step on again >304 what the fuck
Xavier Taylor
Mission makes a low-carb tortilla. 3-6g of carbs per tortilla. May be a good idea. Had to drop breakfast tacos from my menu cause I’m on low-carb diet.
Hudson Bell
>400 calories in a fucking bun >fried eggs >honey ham >chocolate cookies >cream pie cookies Fucking stop Scramble the eggs yourself or better yet just steam or boil them, drop the fucking cookies and have a goddamn apple, I don't know what the fuck is in those buns but that's way too huge so drop it for some normalfag whole wheat bread and keep it to two fucking slices and not the entire goddamn loaf, fucking control yourself, find some self respect for fuck's sake
You don't really need breakfast specific foods honestly Pottage, porridge, eggs, whatever
Josiah Thomas
Im a yuropoor sorry. But I dont eat it that often.
Daniel Torres
Yall having pain problems with assisted dips. No matter how much resistance I put or how good i try to keep my form it feels like my shoulders are getting ripped from my body. No such problems on ANY other push exercises.
Lucas Flores
doesn't matter if it's a pound or two different. just make sure to leave it in the same place
Grayson Taylor
Today I’ve seen a hint of abs
Easton Long
You're making it. Congratulations.
Adrian Allen
Is it okay to lose weight eating only peanut butter and chicken ? (with witamins supplement ofc)
it's so easy, never hungry
Thomas Nguyen
you could lose weight eating pizza and cake if you really wanted to
Joshua Lee
fasted all day, gonna stuff 800 kcal of fish in my face for dinner and call it a day
Nolan Turner
I think there was a guy who ate nothing but like hostess and other sweets and still lost weight but I think he ended up getting diablbeetus
Andrew Roberts
your shits will be terrible
Daniel Young
He also ate healthy whole food as well. They never tell people that part.
He then quit because the positive numbers from simply eating less and dropping weight were started to look bad. That would fuck with the experiment that was most likely netting him a good chunk of change.
James Foster
What's your TDEE? I've been on a -1600 deficit for 2 months now. It's going great.
Cooper Ortiz
It's insanely weird that I barely finish half a sandwich now that I used to eat all of no problem. At least I have dinner taken care of I guess.
Carson Collins
I used to eat 2 big tbone steaks per meal, now I have to struggle finishing one of them.
I remember I wouldnt understand how other people would only eat one steak.
Gavin Ortiz
I am doing alternate day fasting (fasting one day, eating the next). I recently left overweight BMI, and I am now in the normal range, but obviously still have a lot to lose. I am losing 2/2.5 lbs per week. Is it safe at my weight? If you also lost weight this quick, do you have remorse?
I think you'll be alright. 2 pounds a week is what most people would consider the maximum 'acceptable' limit of weight loss.
Julian Russell
I was doing well the last two weeks but i got my drivers licence on Tuesday, My senpai keeps "Encouraging" me to "Celebrate", I feel like a fat fuck from all the chocolate
Just kill me
Jonathan Nelson
I had 240g of cornflakes and 1L of milk for breakfast instead of a coffee. I fell for my cravings anons
Easton Nguyen
Ate 16 boneless wings yesterday coming out to 1,640 cals. I burned about 300 cals so i was still under my tdee but i still felt like shit. They were so good though
Dylan Davis
So close to breaking 200lb... so fucking close
Lincoln Hill
literally stepped on the scale today, 200.0 bout to go sweat for about five minutes and see a 1 in the hundreds for the first time in over 10 years.
Brayden Howard
iktf. just a few short pounds from being under 300
Hudson Wood
My co-workers are trying to tempt me from my diet.
>Been on a 1000 calorie deficit all week (1200 cals/day) >Going to the gym every other day >Yesterday rolls around >Family goes to Olive Garden >Eat 2600 cals for dinner alone
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
How long will it take to undo that?
Oliver Wright
that would be like eating ~1600 calories a day for a week slows down progress but you shouldn't actually gain fat
Joshua Reed
Holy shit, bruhs! Only lost 3lbs this week, but bodyfat % went down by a number of points, and BMI is down under 39. I think I’m gonna make it.
Julian Gutierrez
Are Multi-Vitamin Tablets worth it?
Luis Garcia
Hey guys what's this snake juice stuff people keep talking about?
Jayden Collins
wrong general
Alexander Gray
2130, getting all my macros too. Which meals a lot of repetitive meals. It's fine though.
Jose Ward
At how many cups a day does coffee become bad for your health?
Asher Russell
Anything more than 0
Brandon Wright
But drinking coffee helps me kill the cravings
Colton Adams
Sucks
Xavier Jackson
Depends on the person. Personally I wouldn't have more than 2 or 3. Or better yet switch all/some of it for tea. It's nonsense that a cup a day will harm you unless you have a specific issue with caffeine, there's even some slight evidence it's beneficial.
Matthew Richardson
if you need to chug coffee to get through the day then you have other health problems. i have one small cup of coffee in the morning, mostly because i like the taste
Hunter Perez
Ive been eating 500 calories a day. This wont have bad effects right?
Ethan White
Never drank coffee until recently but I found that it helps with fasting. One cup as breakfast, one around lunchtime, one in the afternoon, one after dinner. Keeps the hunger away
Liam Johnson
nah ive been doing that for 2 months
Levi Robinson
losing weight too fast can have undesirable effects, but no it probably won't kill you
>50+ g of fat for breakfast I mean really it's kind of terrifying
Jonathan Watson
You WILL make it.
Parker Ortiz
Not sure what to think of the 68g of sugar and 191g of carbs either. More than one third of his carb intake is sugar.
Elijah Rodriguez
When I go to Olive Garden I get the chicken parmesan, but I replace the marinara sauce with alfredo sauce. Also have multiple salads and tons of bread sticks. I never want to know how many calories that is.
Dylan Sullivan
Just make it yourself t bh it'll probably fucking taste better to boot
Lucas Clark
What’s a light tuna salad recipe? Thinking about mass making them for my lunch at work
David Edwards
How much have you lost? How many pants sizes are you down?
Tyler Young
Is it possible to run everyday? About 3km, less than 20 mins, everyday? Or will it be too hard on my legs?
Grayson Jenkins
Yeah it'll be hard on your legs. Protect your knees man, the weight has done enough damage already, try not to fuck them up any harder.
Jaxson Martinez
Dont fucking do it everyday. I fucked myself up because of it and got planters fasciitis.
You don't want that shit.
Xavier Jenkins
What about 3-4 times per week? I’m not obese just 30lbs fat.
Luis Campbell
Every other day is fine dude
Brandon Jenkins
Sure user. Don't ask to ask, just tell us. Make it yourself, it's better and healthier. Chicken parm is really easy.
