Caleb Russell
I hate this. I was stuck at 109kg for over a week then dropped to 106,9 out of a sudden, now every time I've stepped on the scale for the past week its frozen on 106,9. Wtf
Christian Fisher
I am insane to quit with the weight loss for a while?
I'm more keen to get used to maintaining than I am to lose any more weight, since that's the part I usually fuck up. I don't even know if I can do it yet, and if I can't then this was all pointless..
There's nothing to worry about right? Just 4 weeks taking a break from a deficit to give things a chance to stabilise. Then crack on with the final stretch.
That's insane isn't it.
Aiden Cox
If you don't lazy the fuck up it could work. If you were trying to do it to see if you could increase the load on your squats, it would sound like a better idea but it sounds like you're doing it just to see if your body magically fixes itself and it probably won't happen.
Oliver Brooks
>but it sounds like you're doing it just to see if your body magically fixes itself elaborate
Nicholas Johnson
Classic 2 kilo drops, happened to me too last year 103-101-99-97-95 But after that winter came and I was between 98-96 for months
Jayden James
if you think that's insane then you might have a disorder What you described is normality, and you're acting like it's sacrilege. I think you need to speak to a professional about your relationship with food.

If you weight 325lbs you should be losing more than that. Plateaus at that weight do not exist.
Wyatt Campbell
nice jaw gains father.
do that after your done with your cut, dont justify quitting.
Eli Jones

Hunter Martin
I lost 8 lbs and now the scale number is barely moving again.
Nathaniel Butler
Did you misquote or typo? He's at 235 not 325.
Eli Cruz
No to both.

So odd. Its so annoying, though.

Broke my fast last night with a modest pain au chocolat. Beginning a new fast now. Feel empowered.
that is exactly my problem, i think. I see anything less than 100% as failure, and you can only lose so much weight before you have no choice but to go the other way
Christian Anderson
I notice some face gains, I'm starting to look like my dad did back in the 80s when he was in college, and from all the stories he, my uncle and his old buddies told me he used to be a ladies man chad. I was capable of getting 6's and 7's from before, maybe I can upgrade if I get some game.
Austin Davis
what's your SWCWGWH? how much are you eating?
the poster who bites his chocolate buddies is funnier than you, step it up fool.
Nathaniel Edwards
Good idea, hard numbers. Started at 270 Jan 1st, been averaging 622.8kcal per day since then with an hour of low intensity cardio per day since Feb. Last weigh-in was wednesday and I was 177lbs.
Adam Howard
you're only eating 600cals or do you count exercise? thats ridiculously low, maybe try to increase your intake, you can still lose weight at 1200cals. so you have no goal in mind? you should atleast have a moveable one. height?
Isaiah Howard
I'm just not sure what you're trying to accomplish that wouldn't work better staying on the weight loss, for the time being.
Jonathan Russell
brah remember the episode where the big fat black mama threatened to kill herself because they wouldn't let her out of hospital? i wanted this man to quip back bitch you already doing that. he a saint.
Asher Carter
No I don't factor exercise into calories. After the first few weeks I noticed my average intake was like 800kcal, so from then on I tried to stay underneath that, and then it went down to 750, and so on. The number I had in mind when I started was 160lbs, now i'm close to it every pound of fat I lose is noticeable. I'm 6'1.
Jose Baker
>that time the hamplanet mom took her obese daughter with her to the meeting and dr now btfo both of them that bitch was smoking and drinking while pregnant, white trash.
Brody Sanchez
as long as taking a break doesn't mean stuffing your face with cake and doritos - you need to still count and eat maintenance.
Caleb Fisher
There's a huge bag of rice in the cupboard I haven't touched yet because I'd always rather eat something with lower calories. Like I said, anything below 100% counts as failure.
Bentley Myers
not him but I went on holiday for 2 weeks and I came back lighter, 1lbs so it wasnt much but I think I taught myself about moderation. I might actually make it.
Jason Perry
that's pretty impressive as when i take breaks i usually pick up some nasty water weight. good job user
at some point you'll have to rid yourself of that mindset. fatness is the culmination of many small mistakes, and weight loss is the culmination of many small successes. so taking a few weeks at maintenance may be beneficial for you.
Christian Campbell
Where can i get good numbers on the nutrients in the lean meat of a whole roast chicken? I wanna cut my sodium intake if i can and save money, and roast chickens piss all over reformed tat meat off the shelf for sanwiches. Problem is i see shit saying that chicken would be 170 kcal/100g, the frozen breast meat i buy is 97...
Samuel Brooks
I just want to know if I'm making the right call my gut reaction says "meh, I'll think about it", then I won't think about it, then the inevitable happens
maybe not maintenance, just a less drastic deficit
Nathaniel Rivera
frozen chicken breast normally has added water, and sometimes added sugar / syrup, read the packaging is generally reliable
Jason Green
slower progress is not the end of the world, you need to drill that into you head somehow just ease into it, test the waters to prove the sky won't fall if you do
Jordan Watson
it literally can't hurt, you won't gain anything except water weight. so i don't think it can be a wrong call.
Aaron Thompson
Actually doing great father. Down to 239, promoted at work, acing school. Only thing that would even be a confession was the fact I did a hardcore binge at work (/cook/) and went way over my deficit goal.
I don't get it. I lost 5 kg and Ive been watching what eat, and yet my reflux problems have only gotten worse.
Aaron Ortiz
Fair point
Alexander Campbell
I posted this in the last thread but missed the new thread, so I'll just repost How can I program swimming? I used to swim in high school but now I don't have a coach. I'm really just looking to add in some cardio to my lifting. >6'4, cw 224, gw 200 (to start, we'll see when I get there)
Cooper Roberts
thanks user, I think its mostly my stomach shrinking, I physically cant eat as much as I used to.
Andrew Baker
I took a peek in the co-op as i was passing. The fresh chicken breast fillets are 109 kcal/100g, and the whole chickens 209/100g after bone removal. Would it not make sense for this calorie estimate to include the skin and drippings too, thereby making a 109+10% error estimate more sensible with drippings drained?
Mason Cooper
I ate McDonald twice yesterday Still lost a pound this week as of my weigh in this morning, I need to work on my nerves, this shit is getting unbearable. My GF begged me to cum in her so I did. Then we got plan b Still feel like I'm going to be a father. Not only that but I have a dentist appointment today and I have dental anxiety so bad that the last time I went I continued to be nervous for the rest of the day, even puked from nerves a couple hours after the checkup I have to stop eating fast food when I get this nervous, hopefully the pregnancy thing clears up soon and the dentist thing should be better the more I go. At least this congression is helping a little bit.
Aaron Ortiz
Finally down to 264. Which was my maintenance weight in 2014. I've undone 5 years of bullshit in 4 months, I can't wait for the next 4 months to see how much thinner I'll be.
Bentley Mitchell
Fucking grats, user. I hope youre taking body shots to record your progress over time. Nothing beats comparing where i am now to where i was a year ago desu.
Camden Bell
I'll start today Went to church last night in a shirt I hadn't worn in years Got some mires from some of the HS girls in the choir

Jordan Parker

have sex is fine, cumming in girls who "beg" for you to cum in them then actually doing it is next level retarded.

This is true glory It's been hell to get here but totally worth it
The insane part is the fact that they are fat as fuck. Eating at maintenance is for healthy people. Retard
Carson Brown
I did this last weekend too Good thing I pulled out We were in a pool and I told her I came deep in her but really I came in the pool I mean shit still sucks but at least the load wasn't in there Probably would should have gotten plan b anyway, we didn't though cause she was already ovulating. Doesn't matter? Had sex? ....t... Thanks /fat/ couldn't have done it without you...
There really should be a PSA in this general, a lot of guys who haven't ever been fit or haven't been fit in a while are going to fall into stuff like this. Your family might crab out and tell you that you have lost too much weight but a girl's squishbox will start taking interest in you and if you aren't careful you can get taken for a ride in the worst kind of way. I've never had a pregnancy scare as retarded as these guys but I did have a girl slowly drain my account last summer. Probably spent 5k on her over the course of the summer and I don't exactly have the best job. A lot of us who are nearing the end of our goals are going to start getting a lot of attention they are not used to. Please be careful

>Cutting for 16 days now >Average deficit of 1000 calories a day >OMAD >Really sticking with everything >Pants getting loose >Already feel more comfortable in tight shirts >Gonna stick with it until I hit my goal weight >But >I fucking crave a beer because it's a long weekend and I haven't had a drink in a month
Fuck /fat/ I'll make some tea and play some games, but these cravings are hitting me hard
am not eating between meals anymore, but instead i just cram all the unhealthy shit to meal-time. somehow i get away with reasonable amount of calories per meal because i don't overload the fucking plate.
im jewish and we have shitload of holidays, so i have to maneuver around the soft drinks, and so far iv done a decent job- but quite far from where i want it to be.
2. iv found that the only way to actually know if you've lost weight is to take pictures. the scale messes with my head since iv gained 20lbs since iv started and i swear on me life that im leaner. the sad thing is, i don't have much time to lose the fucking weight. im 28 years old and time is ticking
>im jewish And lack the English language. Just give up. You're going to die of french toast urine smelling disease or skull cap skull crushers anyways. Product of thousands of years of inbreeding.
Jason Jenkins
There's nothing to eat in Shavuuot so that's one holiday off your back.
Angel Hill
Losing 200g a day consistently lol. its kinda weird seeing the change so fast.
Lucas Walker
Is it true /fat/? Do you gain it back faster than you lost it?
Sebastian Perez
if you eat a lot yea
Henry Watson
Yeh which is why consistency is the key.
Joshua Reed
you gain and lose at the same rate but its easier to eat 1000 calories above your tdee than it is to eat 1000 calories below your tdee
Benjamin Wright
I change my answer this is correct
Kayden Bailey
how tall are you?
Elijah Gutierrez
it depends on the person tho but since this is /fat/ i assume he has no problem eating 1000 calories of chocolate in one sitting.
Absolutely. Just be careful with bed time, not like you'll piss yourself but it's pretty annoying.

Josiah Rogers
Nothing really, been doing OMAD, but there hasn't been a significant change in my body. I have a feeling I will still look like shit even when I get to 180, and may have to do a water fast on alternating weeks to drop even more weight. I'll be going to the beach in 6 weeks, and I'm no where close to where I should be.
Also doesn't help that I was doing so much cardio, I got jumpers knee, so that is less calories I can burn. I have been working out since the New Year, I have gotten stronger:
1 pullup->sets of 12 strict form pull ups 10 pushups->Sets of 25+ 5 dips->sets of 15 3 bodyweight rows->sets of 12 Was able to jump rope 10 sets at 3 minutes each.
I might just cut out carbs since I eat rice. I'm really desperate to at least look okay without a shirt, I'm getting really scared I won't make it, and it is making me sad. Will still keep working though.
How do you get lean? I've been doing 30 of cardio every day and im on a diet but i havent seen almost any results about 1 and a half months in does it just take longer? i want to get my body fat % low that's all
Caleb Collins
205, but under 24%bf to get in, under 18% to stay in.
Ryder Torres
you can do it, buy david googgins book on audible if you havent yet
Colton Hughes
saved. Ill pick it up soon. Thanks user.
Noah Mitchell
ive lost 80 lbs from 240 and only 10 min later do i realise i was getting hit on. Its all so new to me, im always just like "welp ok see you later"
Purely doing cardio is the worst strategy for weightloss as you have do to more cardio the lower your weight gets, and most people stop doing it because of injury or boredom (lack of progress)
Justin Lee
ya theres a lil on the bottom of my belly, i use it as a daily reminder to stay healthy
