The past couple of weeks have been a cycle of binging, guilt-purging and fitting every spare moment I have into cardio.
I'm going to blow up like a fucking balloon if I don't get this shit in control by the time I hit my goal weight.
Michael Lewis
I stopped counting calories for a full week. I didn't even realize and i ended up gaining 5 lbs
David Rogers
ate 4 pieces of walmart sushi today, 100 calories total
i dont feel bad
Ryan Morris
Don't purge, Google bulimia teeth to cure that habit
Xavier Cooper
Week 4 out of 5 of "final" -1000kcal cut ongoing, current weight 82kg, a bit below 16%BF. I start to get really tired and am now struggle to maintain the same level in all my compound lift, with a small decrease in OVP. Continuing to run 5km on an almost daily base. Technically 2kg to loose on 10 day so will probably not reach my objectives, but I plan to follow it by a few weeks at 750-500kcal of deficit to have a smooth transition to maintenance, so hopefully that will do it. Plan to do way less cardio in May anyway, this shit takes up too much of my free time.
Owen Jenkins
I ate 4400 calories. Although I also walked 6 miles.
Samuel Moore
I really hurt my knees today. Actually, it fucking hurts to walk at all right now. Im around 53bmi and I want to lose more weight by exercising so I went on the treadmill for a bit. I thought that maybe a light jog would be good for me. You know, just jump into it. I was wrong and now I'm in a ton of pain.
Luke Rodriguez
I only ate 4 eggs yesterday on my OMAD
Benjamin Gonzalez
Yeah, you got a point.
It's like no matter how much weight you lose, that ability to just eat and eat and never stop, it never goes away. Always have to mentally shut off the trap tap and bikelock it shut.
That's going to be a bitch to keep a tab on.
John Bailey
I have already written the permission slip to overeat this Easter in my mind.
I hope Jesus saves, because I can't.
Andrew Davis
Thinking about making ersatz diet Frito pie. Quest chips (140 cal), some ground bison (151 cals), a little fat free cheddar (?), and diced onions (?). Sound good?
Christopher Cook
I keep subconsciously sabotaging myself because I've lost so much weight already. If I could just lose 8 - 10 more pounds I'd be able to start eating maintenance, but because I'm so close I keep having cheat days and binge meals and setting myself back
I ate so much deep fried food and ice cream today that I feel sick and gained 3 pounds of water weight for instance
Christian Gonzalez
Sounds pretty good. Remember to factor in the oil/butter/sauce whatever you use as well.
48 bmi here. My knees can take it but my ankles and heart are constantly crying to give up.
Hunter Jackson
A protein bar, some sweet potato bread and at least three thousand calories at an all you can eat buffet.
Gains Jesus forgive me
Ian Perry
bait
Charles Anderson
Yeah, my dude, I waited until I was like 27 BMI to get into jogging. Even at 40 BMI I wasn't getting much further than like half a street and would regret it.
Take it easy, dude. Elliptical and swimming are good fatty-ankle/knee/joint friendly cardio.
Doesn't look like bait, just... very complex and micro-managed. Good for them. Hilarious that MFP dings you for too much protein, like the mommy-blogger weight loss tool for tools it is.
Aaron Clark
protein shakes help prevent hunger, whenever i have crazing i neck a scoop of the good stuff
Brody Brooks
No, that is bait.
Nathan Cox
Father, I ate the whole container of yogurt covered raisins. 3100 calories today father, first time going over 2200 in weeks. I will repent hard at the gym on Friday after my exams on Thursday
IM ALL UP IN THAT GLORY HOLE S O NOT THAT NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
Sebastian Martin
>can't stay sleep without quetiapine >don't feel tired without mirtazipine >both increase appetite >withdrawl from mirtazipine gives me intense headaches >stress from constant pain, no sleep, no structure is making me binge eat >can't stand the fact I'm binge eating so I force it back up
What the fuck do I do? I'm stuck in this fucking cycle of not being able to sleep, stressing, eating, taking an anti depressant to sleep, waking up 18 hours later having slept half of the day, missing an entire day's worth of activity (Or waking up feeling too fucking exhausted to do anything) and still feeling so shitty I want to binge eat more. What the fuck do I do? What do I fucking do?!? I can't sleep, I can't stay awake, I can't be pain fucking free, I can't even muster the energy to go to gym, and when I can I feel like I'm gonna pass out after a couple of minutes, and I feel like that then what the fuck is the point in going? The caffeine to stay awake fucking hurts, and even if I go to bed at a reasonable time on the mirtazipine I sleep way too fucking long fucking help me please, I was doing so god damn well this year at 3st lost and now my mind is all fucked up and I don't know why
Luke Barnes
are these things good for ya? they're really yummy and i've been having one or two a day while on the go
Still 260 pounds at 6'1. But able to do knuckle push ups now. Feels good man.
Asher Kelly
I'm 186 lbs and 5'6' I'm only eating 1500 calories a day why the FUCK am i only losing a pound every week and a half? Its so slow.
Brayden Martinez
>1500 calories a day >why the FUCK am i only losing a pound every week and a half >1500 cals a day >1500
Hmm I fucking wonder. This has to be bait. No one is this stupid.

my parents feeding me pounds of junkfood you edgelord retard. fuck off to your cancerous fph thread
Brandon Cox
Been cutting for about a month on 2000 cal a day
Last week I've stopped and have been eating about 3000 a day
I don't want to weigh myself because I've probably undone all the hard work
I'm 6'2 , about 85kg and about 14% bf
Xavier Cox
You're probably only in a 600 calorie deficit, if I were to guestimate your TDEE being around 2100 calories. Are you measuring everything with a food scale? Are you doing any additional exercise for more calories to burn, getting enough sleep, drinking plenty of water? There are many factors to consider, but ultimately it is your TDEE being at a point where 1500 calories is only enough for you to lose a pound within the time of a week, or week and a half like you're saying.
Levi Sullivan
I eat processed sugar every day and I hate it
Joseph Johnson
I walk for two hours a day, sometimes i go to the pool or jog. I've also been doing stairs. I live a sedentary lifestyle when im not working out though, so my TDEE is around 2500
I measure absolutely everything autistically and drink mostly only water. I get about 6-7 hours of sleep a day.
I feel like i should do more of a deficit since its so slow, but even with this i'm left hungry.
Oh well i guess. All progress is good progress.
Michael Lewis
>too lazy to cook or buy groceries today >Went out and bought 1000 calories of popeye's for breakfast
Just cracked and ate 3000 calories of food today. I've been dieting for 8 months and have lost 25 pounds. Over the last few weeks, I've cracked and gained 3 pounds. My fat mother keeps guilt-tripping me into going out to eat with her and I keep thinking about whether I should just get my own place and move out. On the bright side, I ran my first 10 minute mile the other day!

Angel Sanders
I came back from a trip last week and I'm still eating like shit. It disrupted my routine but also it's a problem of willpower. Used some credit to join a dietbet so I can't slack off anymore. Let's refuse greasy good together boys.
Starting my diet tomorrow. My last meal for today was a bucket of family sized kfc extra crispy chicken with two sides of mashed potatoes, wedges, 4 pieces of corn cobs, 2 liter mug root beer, package of party sized hot Cheetos and a bowl of rocky road ice cream. My current weight is 277 5’5” aiming to be at a healthy 200 by the summer. Will I make it bro’s?
Liam Turner
No way. Summer is like two months away... Maybe by the end if you were amazingly strict.
It gets harder from here just so you know, that initial weightloss is always the easiest so just keep counting calories and exercising even if you might stay the same weight for a week.
broke a plateau by 1lbs last night and I swear I felt it before I weighed in.
Is the ready made rotisserie chicken they have at Walmart or other supermarkets a good item to diet on?
Leo Diaz
Thanks user you are a true bro
Robert Brown
Decided to have a small cheat(still under tdee) and bough potato chips and surprisingly they've left me feeling fad for the rest of the day unlike clean food. Too bad they have no nutrition for so many calories
Joshua Wood
I weight myself almost every morning, but only record the weight once a week, and I can easily tell when I'm lighter and heavier. Think it has to do with the bloat and how much water body saved from last day..
John Watson
Just water fast until you’ve hit a healthy weight you dumb fatties.
Supplement electrolytes
Josiah Thompson
I'm 5'11 207lbs and my TDEE is 2400. Your TDEE is not 2500.
Jack James
Cramps during sleep can be a sign of too low minerals. For me it is usually Magnesium. I just take a supplement the next day and I am fine for the next one or two months.
Juan Thomas
>diet >stop, desire for food comes back a shitload stronger and gain it all back and more >diet >??? >death
I think I need to stop dieting.
Luke Lee
diet is a meme word, you either change your life and get your shit together full stop, or you take a temporary """"""""""""diet"""""""""""" and yoyo like a dumbass.
Even thinking of it as a diet implies you'll go back to "normal" and be fat again, so what's the point
Wyatt Barnes
No, thanks. Not only would I like to keep my muscles but I also want to lift.
Stop eating you dumb fuck let your body burn all the fat off. It is literally reserve energy in case of you not eating food. It’s 10000 times easier to get thin by not eating than dieting. Let your body go into fasting mode ffs
Why do you people insist on putting food in your body every goddamn day
Luis Collins
Is keto a meme diet?
Dominic Walker
Stick to your containment thread
Chase Green
Why is it any of your business how people diet, fucking faggot. Fastfags are the jehovah's of dieting I swear.
Luis Bennett
not as long as you use CICO as the underlying basis that said, gotta remember you're trying to change up your entire eating habits as well and part of that is learning to eat carbs in moderation
Ryan Long
think about it, what do you really get from shoveling pizza into your mouth? temporary mouth pleasure then extreme guilt and probably acid reflux - there's no point to it the reason you constantly crave food is because you have developed resistances to hormones, like leptin and insulin, that interact with eachother to tell your body to stop eating by consistently ignoring those signals for years
