CICO works and you should ignore posters who say it doesn't.

I lose weigh drastically in less than two months, from 190 lb to 158 lb in less than two months, I have been doing OMAD and doctor told me I fucked up and now I have hypoglycemia, what meals do you recommend me to treat this?
Yesterday my boss was going to take me out for lunch but he was late back so I decided to have a "light meal" because I was hungry and ended up getting a huge block of caramel slice from the ground floor cafe.
Then when my boss arrived we went and got burgers and I had a massive cheeseburger and onion rings and sweet potato chips.
HOWEVER, I didn't drink any soft drink at all, and also didn't need to eat dinner.
It was a failure, obviously, but not an unmitigated one. And I am still slowly losing weight, so I'm not going to beat myself up about it.
Father i was having cravings of chocolate for 2 days. The 2 days i sucumb to them. Probably don't get over my TDEE but i know in the long run will hinder my progress
Adam Murphy
Fasting for long periods of time? Anyone have some success stories?
Robert Cruz
I let the fact that ive picked up an incredibly physically demanding job allow me to cheat on my diet due to being so exhausted after work and not wanting to cook as well as hating having to do the increased amount of grocery shopping. I just go in and get some apples and ramen. My arms and chest are getting bigger but so is my tummy tum. Alcohol consumption is way down though. Cant enjoy a cocktail if your out cold after the first few sips.
Jeremiah Fisher
I mean a man fast for a year and lost like 300 pounds. What more succes like that you want? I not a fan of it and hate to use Snake juice. But if you find it sustainable, go for it.
Thomas Sullivan
I spent 5 hours at the ER with my daughter, thankfully she was alright but when I got homw there was Digiorno's and I didn't even bother to see what an appropriate serving was. I've never fasted before but I'm deeply considering trying it to attempt to make up for how bad this week has been.
24 hours you can get used to doing 365 times a year 48 hours comes with the occasional hunger and headaches 72 hours guarantees that you get a massive headache 72+ hours and you need supplements to stay alive and healthy
Jaxson Gray
I've never had strong cravings before but holy shit, I want a big bowl of rice with mandarin sauce so fucking bad
Tyler Clark
that's how you start yoyoing
Carter Nguyen
do any of you guys have issues with wanting to sleep with women who want to be with you, based upon how you feel you look? As in are you embarrassed by your looks and dont want to 'subject' women who want to be with you to that, if they havent seen you naked/shritless before?
Jonathan Moore
Been actually trying a bit to loose weight. Could anyone recommend a smart scale though. I plan to hit it everyday to keep on track. Problem is I’m over 400 and can’t find any scales that go that high.
Luis Baker
I actively avoid people because I feel like nobody enjoys my company. Except maybe family.
I only need to lose about 15 pounds but I still lurk the fatty threads so I can pick up extreme weight loss tips
Cooper Roberts
What do I do guys? My life feels like a mess. I haven't lost any weight since Feb because of my shit diet, now I feel like I'm lost again. I lost 15 lbs in February but now I've stagnated. That and my days feel like they're just melting into each other, I just feel hopeless. Is there something wrong with me?
This hunger I can't stand it. My TDEE is around 3000, I've been keeping to 2000kcal for a month now, but I'm sick of it. I hate being hungry so often, it feels shit.
I don't want to eat chocolate, I'm sick of fruit and my faggot ass taste buds can't stand seeds, leafs and nuts, I'm not a rabbit. What the fuck do I do?
>Is there something wrong with me? Yeah you're eating too much, stop it.
Nicholas Hill
Ok /fat/
I've lost over 90lbs since I started coming here. I went from 250lbs of pure lard to 157 pounds of pure lard. I am just as weak as ever and have shit form. What is the best option for me to achieve proper form? I'm in a rich old folks town so all personal trainers worth shit are behind really expensive gym memberships. My university has a nice gym but if I cant fucking squat properly in the first place from shit form/being so weak theres no point.
go balls to the walls with cardio, swimming or running
Austin Cox
Get gud
Mason Reyes
if you can walk around normally then you have the strength to learn to squat starting with the bar
stop making excuses, it just means you have no discipline
get discipline or waste your lives away, nerds
nothing we post on an anonymous internet chat room will do anything for you if you dont truly care about bettering yourself
Joseph Martinez
I don't know about scales that go that high, but at your weight you'd probably lose eating 2500 kcal a day. Start eating better and the weight will melt off you. How do you know your weight in the first place?
Lucas Butler
How do I work the nautilus machines? I'm too weak in the knees for squats, so I'm using them instead until I'm strong enough. Is there an order i'm supposed to do them?
Lucas Cruz
drink a fuckload of water until you are bloated, or find something to do in your spare time.

Get your ego outside the gym. Everybody need to start in somewhere.
Levi Wood
Last time I was losing weight I started feeling extremely horny, like constantly on the edge of jizzing my pants. I didn't like that feel. Are skinny people super horny all the time? I imagine they would be, having their crotches protruding in front of them more than their stomachs.
I really want to lose weight, but I hate being horny. Wat do?
James Davis
>when your body decides that losing 3 pounds a week is for fags and decides to keep you at the same weight for 2 weeks epic style
plateaus are normal. just stick to your deficit. i've heard people say that eating at maintenance for a few days can kick start things again, not tried it myself though.
Leo Bailey
makes zero change, if you're eating at a deficit, things are changing inside your body even if it doesn't translate to scale numbers

Nolan Ramirez
I confess that I cannot convince a lot of people that pure CICO is unhealthy. I am sad because they will not lose weight
Carson Gonzalez
nice, you're at where i was last week. I hit 29.3 bmi, feels so good to not be classified under obese
Ryan Phillips
I am 3lbs away from being overweight. I want it so bad that im working out even harder at the gym. After that, my next goal is my goal weight.
I need to lose 60ish pounds then I will be happy again.
This is something that always fat people will never understand. Have you been fat your whole life? You wont get it.
I was thin a couple years ago. I was thin and I loved myself. I had relationships, went out, did everything. It was great. Then I got fat. I stopped going out. Started to feel like people were looking at me as if I were disgusting. Thats because I was disgusting. I can't even look into the mirror to see what I have become.
But I am fixing myself. I kept all my old clothes which I will fit in again. Ive lost a little over 60lbs in the last couple months. Im sleeping better, feeling better, and communicating better. I still have a far way to go, and Im still utterly disgusting. Soon, though. Soon I will be back to what I was.
I feel sorry for those who never experienced what it feels like to be thin. They won't work as hard as knowing what they lost.
James Cook
I originally lost weight by being forced into conscription. Went from 110kg to 80kg through pure military training, my tdee must've been fucking huge back then. Of course I still ate like a pig and jumped straight back to 110kg during these three years that I've been a regular civilian.
Robert Cooper
The best part for me was the mires when I was shirtless, ladies even sometimes staring to my pecs without hiding. I’m back on tracks fortunately
Dominic Gray
this makes me sad i've always been fat thanks for the perspective user
Josiah Murphy
>tfw a probable weak point at chest will make that I'll probably never know this I'll be content with a nice ass I guess
Jayden Bell
Which part of it? The eating something shitty because it was already there and I was hungry element or immediately attempting to rectify it element?
I don't want to let one shitty day result in yoyoing.
Gavin Lopez
I have the perfect pic for this but I can't post it due to a stupid global rule. ;_;
Jayden Stewart
>halfway towards my goal >Thinking of opening a tinder account to test how handsome >1 match after 3 hours >"Fuck yeah" >Its a camwhore trying to scam me
To think that all of the problems in my life might have been averted if my parents didn't let me eat shit all the time.
The arbitrary unfairness of life disgusts me far more than any fatbody ever could. In looks, in money, in health, in achievement, in a thousand places a thousand times a day inequity and privilege chip away at productivity and make life worse for billions.
>They won't work as hard as knowing what they lost. Cringe.
Cameron Rivera
Tinder is nothing but whores asking for money, if you ever get a real match it'll be with a 3/10 at best. Unless you are a 10/10 chad, Tinder is not worth using.
Aiden Ross
Yeah, if you're not exercising for a pathetic half hour a day your TDEE bloats like you wouldn't believe.
Professional cyclists eat up to 6-7000 calories a fucking day, and that's maintenance for them. They say you can't outrun a bad diet, you can, but you've got to spend all fucking day doing it, not just a half hour. Or even two hours. All day.
Also using online dating for pure validation is why you've got so many emotionally broken chicks running about.
Brody Morales
my birthday is coming up, not sure if I should have my first cheat day or not. Ive been making really good progress
Brandon Roberts
A little off topic. I think one of the people who work at the gym likes me. How do I approach this? Thanks
Jayden Turner
Perform the truffle shuffle, violently, on eye contact.
Kevin Harris
Other user by getting acceptable standard of fitness (still not over), went from zero match tinder bug to a matche every now and then. Coherent with the fact I think I went from 3/10 didn't cared about himself fatass to decently fit and decently dressed 5-6/10 Next I'll try to get an haircut I guess.
[spoiler] not interessed by most of the girl I get match with tho, and can't find anything to say to them anyway [/spoiler]
Cameron Russell
>Oh my god Becky, you know user? Yeah the fat one. He said he likes me. I knooow so creepy!
Im not making excuses I'm looking for what I should do. It's not like I'm just gonna give up cause people on some message board dont have the answer either.
John Mitchell
>Sorry bro I just don't feel the same way, but hey if you keep it up I'm sure'll find a nice guy someday, so come on lets back to it.
dear people of /fat/ I'm a skinnyfat bitch so please help me with your wisdom, what should I do? Should I embrace true skele mode or walk the lone path of eating more calories? I'm lost please someone
Measure bodyfat to see how skinnyfat you really are, cut down to 12% and then clean bulk.
This isn't rocket science brah.
Nolan Brown
Do keto and lose some weight. Or a modified keto with CICO thrown in.
Brody Martinez
>twf only "non clean" food I allow myself on standard day is this pre workout redbull can I know I should use those 110kcal for other things, but the sugar is driving me crazy.
Nathan Rogers
Anyone taking Yohimbine HCL? My weight loss is going fine as it is, but I could use something to speed it up a bit.
Elijah Allen
Just replace it with a zero calorie energy drink? You probably won't even notice the difference.
Easton Clark
why do you have to speed it up? dont be impatient user
Nolan Stewart
Still long way to go anyway. I doubt any legal supplements are going to make a big difference but if I can cut 10% from the year and a half minimum that I have left I will take it.
Carter Walker
Buy monster boomer sips with zero calories instead.
Nathaniel Flores
I finally actually cooked something that wasn't mac and cheese or toast or some shit for the first time today. Made some baked pasta with mozzarella, Italian sausage, spinach, marinara sauce and a bit of garlic.
I only ate 1/8th of it, and plan to make it last 4 or 5 days.
First time I'm weighing myself after starting my cut tomorrow. Been average an 850cal deficit all week. More importantly, this time actually feels different compared to all the other times I've tried to lose weight. I just found this motivation somewhere and it feels pretty damn good. I just hope I don't fuck up and fall off the wagon again.
This is horribly true. Men at gyms are typically bros, women are self centered jackels who only go to the gym for social cred.
Zachary Miller
Eat it over nine days.
Logan Harris
Father, forgive me for I have sinned.
I was on the righteous path, but injury and illness convinced me to eat like a pig and not exercise for three months, and the little progress I'd made has been lost. Bringing myself to pick up my weights and do push ups has never been this difficult.
Luke Scott
Eat it over nine days then. The fuck is wrong with you?
it's 900 kcal, stop being such a fucking pussy and eat a little less for dinner and you're good
Christian Nguyen
>be me >skinny bitch all my life >start working out in high school >really peaked, lost V card, got good abs that girls literally wanted to lick >start roiding in early 20s >several years later, horrible skin, bald and at least 20kg overweight
Is it too late for me? Should I just become a fedora gamer, drinking mtdew and jerk off to mommy porn? I have half a mind to go full American Hustle mode, and just not give a fuck about anything
Skinny person here, constantly thinking of sex/having a boner desu. Trying to use it to your advantage, You feel manly so You are manly and can lift like a man
John Thompson
peaking in high school sorry user it is all down hill from here all you can do is accept your terrible skin and baldness and lift to not be a weak old man
Carson Cox
Well then fucking eat it and either work it off or drop your cal count for a few days to make up for it. Or just accept a bit of gain on holidays. Stop being autistic.
Isaiah Williams
>20kg overweight Can drop that shit in less than a year you giant baby.
