Would it be idiotic to eat carbs+veg+ a lot of whey protein powder instead of carbs+veg+meat, or at least carbs+veg+a lot of whey+a small amount of meat? Just for convenience
Amusingly enough I actually went to confession today Also: Once I finished dinner I had a couple hundred calories left over but I wasn’t really hungry - and yet I weighed out and ate nuts to bring my number up to the limit anyway - it was gluttonous and unnecessary
i was at 1400 calories and then i had a slice of dominos meatlovers pizza, no idea how many calories are in it but i just assumed that it was within the 400-500 range. I am a fucking absolute 300+ unit so a 1900 calorie day is actually pretty decent but still i probably should have just eaten something i can count.
Asher Turner
i had a sandwich with almost nothing in it, a salad and some piece of ananas thats it
now i just ate some Lays for 370calories... probably ruined the day
Zachary Rogers
what else beside coffee helps to tame hunger
Easton Murphy
Domino's provides nutritional information online, at least they do in my country
Yeah i just looked it up and most consistent estimate was 255, seems a bit on the low side but hey if it is that then i had a pretty good day.

Why am I so weak bros?
>extremely skinnyfat >do 40 minutes of cardio no problem, feels good man >try to lift >barely manage to bench press 70 pounds, start feeling lightheaded, have to throw barbell to the side before it crushes me
I'm eating a ridiculous amount of protein (3 protein bars today alone not to mention nuts and lean meat) but it doesn't seem to be helping. I've been trying to get stronger for a month btw.

keep practicing cardio and start at a lower weight and try to do sets of 10 reps
David Ramirez
Went to the doc for a physical earlier today. At 20 years old, I'm already 272lbs and I need to cut down on a lot of shit. Also I had to get two shots; one to catch up with chicken pox and my first of two HPV vaccines.
If I keep getting fat like this, They'll be drawing blood from me yearly.
I am also skinnyfat and get lightheaded. Try starting with a set on a much lower weight, then next set add a little, and so on until you're at or above what you expect to be doing. I feel you, the skinnyfat lifestyle is unable to be grasped by those who haven't suffered it.
Oliver Wilson
Does anyone else get really sick after doing squats, deadlifts, or leg presses sometimes? Usually if I don't eat before the gym it helps and I haven't had a problem since I figured that out but what's the deal here?
Dominic Jenkins
I'm ten pounds down. Now weigh 231 6"1
Brody Young
Just take nicotine gum. Nicotine is an appetite suppressant
Christian Walker
Just brush your teeth
Christian Williams
Define "sick". I'm working in 3x8rep (yes, it's autistic) for deadlift, at currently 105kg, and I often have small vertigos when completing a set. From what I read it's "normal" and it's the consequence of blood rushing back from your muscles to your head.
Easton Reed
Reading this kind of stuff makes me feel like I had it really easy. Keep the good work user.
Nicholas Morgan
My sister ended up with anorexia while I was a fatty, I know how it feel to have a sibling destroying is own body. I remember being able to carry her as if she weighted nothing, reached 41kg for 1,65m and avoided being hospitalized by a few hundred of kg. Thanks God she saw a doctor and thus was progressivly driven back to health. Stay Strong.
Blake Walker
can you fatties hit the shower before you head over to the game store to play magic?

What would you say the TDEE would be for someone who works in telecommunications as a field technician?
Nathaniel Murphy
Last 2 days my intake has been at at least 1000 kcal under my tdee. Feels like I'm going to make it.
I went to burgers and brew for lunch today and broke my keto +IF. I had a cheese burger, plate of fries and a glass of 805. It’s not the worst but still that’s about 1500 calories and tons of carbs.
Asher Taylor
My god, this post. I used to play magic all the time and the fucking smell of some of those goblins is ridiculous. Some of them even had their fast food and shit sitting there while you were trying to play. All the stores are either in basements or tiny rooms anyways so there's never any air circulation. I have one message to anyone that even thinking of going to a magic store, PLEASE SHOWER OR AT LEAST PUT SOME DEODORANT ON. It's getting so bad at some stores that they have to throw out their fabric chairs and buy wood ones because they smelled so bad.
David Mitchell
i'm a fatty myself, but i have no idea what it is with some fatties and poor hygiene. do you really want to be offensive to more senses than absolutely necessary?
Isaiah Parker
Be sure to check the size of the slice. Large is more than medium, obviously, but a lot of online ones just use the medium slice.
Matthew Johnson
I literally can't stop laughing man is this real? I'm almost impressed that you fucked up keto that badly lol. Like yea no carbs better dip a stick of stick into the peanut butter jar hahahaha. Anyway yea maybe you should try CICO in lieu of keto.
Jack Murphy
I had McDonald’s and sweets because I’m weak. Forgive me father
Michael Stewart
If you just ate 3 pounds of almonds you better just go to the hospital now before your next bowel movement

>40 minutes of cardio no problem Are you sure you’re pushing yourself enough?
Chase Barnes
I am honestly disgusted with myself. It's been 5 fucking years since I promised myself I'd change and I haven't done squat.
Still chubby, still on the same bad habits, still don't have the motivation or drive to see through my goals and achieve them. I could've been my best by now but here I am still on the same shit. Fuck me man.
I'm unhealthily starving myself with an extreme calorie deficit instead of losing weight the normal way because my semi-Jow Forums brother told me so. I know of the side effects like muscle atrophy, wrecked immune system and slow metabolism, but he tells me that since I'm a slob with no muscles anyway it doesn't matter if I "lose" them. I'm planning on slowly increasing my calorie count to TDEE levels once I get within 5-10kg to prevent a massive rebound due to my africa metabolism, but I'm not sure if it'll do me any favors.
>tfw gained a bunch of weight after being homeless and afraid of ever going hungry again >tfw dropped over 150lbs on a healthy cut and excercise regimen >its been over a year now since not being obese but now I feel the urge to purge if I consume any food at all
6'2" 366.3 on Monday 361.1 Today I'd post a starting pic but there is no way you guys want to see this
Jason Sanders
lel, I don't think I've taken a crap for over a week, I really should start keeping track I just been for a length walk as to sweat out as much liquids as possible as I do every week to get a more accurate reading hope I can break the 200 barrier before long into may coz I got some bullshit to deal with and it'll be a good morale boost
Joseph Martin
out of all the generals to troll, why this one? every day you post this cringe bullshit.
Jack James
The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now. You have to decide to do it now and carry it through.No procrastination. You do it now.
Aaron Sanders
take a pic for yourself if you dont wanna post, one a month so you can compare your progress.
Brandon Sanchez
Now is the best time to start losing weight, brah. You can do it.
Joseph Ward
dont come back here to bitch in 3 months, start now or fuck off. you know you have a problem, if you're serious you should get on it now, not next monday, not tommorow, now. if not, you arent serious and the bitching is meaningless.
Camden Evans
Probably like 2500-2700
Adam Fisher
I have this thing where I miss some foods, it's not like I'm craving them but I feel guilty like I've abandoned a friend or something. For example, I used to eat pasta with lemon and tuna but then one day someone told me that the human portions of pasta are apparently like 80-100g and how the fuck is that going to compete with 250 g of broccoli? It's even less calories.
Yeah I already did, front, back and side. I mean I would post but no one else seems to and it's not pretty but if I do say so myself I dont think I look as big as the scale says, a fat piece of shit but not that big, I think I have my frame to thank for that. I was going to do it weekly but maybe that's too often.
Henry Baker
do it once a month, you can post it once a month if you want as well, people here do post them but most of them are either too shy or want to wait until they are done losing weight to.
Thomas Cooper
My pants are stretched or Im getting seriously smaller. They used to be skin-tight but now they are getting loose and baggy

Owen Perez
Alright /fat/, I'm here and looking to lose some weight. Does anyone have any recommendations for exercise someone with back pain from being fat? I can barely walk a block anymore without my back starting to hurt. Doctor recommended pain killers but they did jack shit Sucks ass because I used to walk a lot and love it, I just stopped one day and here I am
Also what do you guys eat for breakfast and lunch?
Dominic Lewis
I know exactly what you mean. Funny thing is, in most cases, it doesnt even end up tasting as good as it used to. I'm the same with pizza or bread and patee sandwiches.
Anyways, my advice is to fit it into you macros/calories occasionally. Accept that you're not gonna eat it as often as you used to, but allow yourself to enjoy it here and there. we're going for long term sustainability here after all, and that includes enjoying foods you love sometimes.
Ethan Roberts
Damn nice quads
I agree with this poster and do the same thing - I usually eat light for lunch and skip breakfast on Friday so I can have something I enjoy and stay under my Calories such as pizza - it’s worked for me so far
Thomas Clark
Can anyone link me to a decent weightlifting routine for someone who is fat as fuck and never done anything like this before? 315 lbs 5'8" M
Colton Parker
What are you aiming for? Losing fat and building muscle? If so the fastest way of doing so is squatting and deadlifting. Your size is a problem though and I doubt you can do those with proper form at that size. I suggest just doing cardio and benching if you want to start building upper body strength
