I'm the fattest guy here, I could set off an anti tank mine
Was never quite sure where to measure my waist. Belly button? Thickest part? Thinnest part? Can be over or under 40" depending where I go. Plus the way it wraps around back could effect consistency.

I'm finally the weight I was 2 weeks ago, except this morning I just woke up and had a piss, whereas 2 weeks ago I woke up, had a piss, went for a run in the searing heat then weighed myself before taking in any fluids
I guess I have equilibrium now

I got a fitness test coming up on the 12th and I heard they made it a bit harder. Any tricks to maximize performance? Dunno if I should eat lots, eat little, exercise, relax, etc the day before. I know I can pass with ease, but I really want that bronze medal!

forcing the number on the scale down on-demand is a rabbit hole since you always have to up the ante and it means almost nothing anyway, other than psychologically

Nicholas Moore
Why anyone would stop caring about weight confuses me. If you gain it back you’ve essentially wasted all that time and effort for nothing.
That's the thing though. Time? Sure. Effort? Hardly.
I started at 88 in February and ended up getting down to 83.5 on the 3rd of June (I had a little diary). All that weight was lost from just doing a 16:8 fast and cleaning up my diet a bit. I remember thinking, "man I'm losing all this, if I start exercising I'll be at my goal in no time". Then I just, didn't exercise, stagnated, had a weekend on the piss and kinda just gave up.

it damages them, but it's not "i'll die at the start of my forties" kind of thing if you get to a normal weight. You'll have a higher chance to develop some problems but if you make it now you'll prolong your life because years being spent obese is the main factor. People that die from obesity caused problems in their late thirties and early forties die while obese. So chin up and get to work user!
Hunter Watson
how fat are we talking weeb filth
Andrew Reyes

Ryder Collins
It's kind of complicated. If you're cutting down now and you do it in a healthy manner, your chances are definitely going to increase with every moment your not shoving a big mac down your throat.
That's not to say you can fix the damage, you're still rolling dice that have a little more weight on the dark side.
You can always battle to redeem yourself. Don't give up, my dude. Fight.
Isaac Johnson
It's nice to hear that but still feel like there's so little time left. 250-350 5'6 for most of my life, obese since 3 or 4 years old.
these last 3kgs to lose are taking so long I was losing 5-7kg monthly before, now it's slowed down to 2-3kg. I know I have less to lose now, but it's annoying. I just want to transition back to eating all foods with my new and improved eating habits and attitudes.
Jack Phillips
One of our teachers was absent, we went for beers, ended drinking like 3 liters and skipping the next classes.
Evan Johnson
yeah, maybe. But fasting made fucking improductive during work. And I don't know, I think I prefer doing it slow and steady and not lose 20 kg starving to gain it again
Alexander Cox
hey if you can't or don't want to starve yourself for months at a time then you're weak or something like that
John Gray
Hahahahaha I'm so fucking fat goddamn LOL!
Samuel Young
>lose 20 kg starving to gain it again slow and steady is boomer rhetoric, you'll only gain it back if your eating habits aren't changed. Keep eating above maintenance and you'll get fat, obviously.
Camden Green
here's the thing though, people laud fasting as being easy, they were also fat so stuffing their face was just as easy are you seeing the problem yet? it's easy to put on weight, it's easy to lose weight what is missing? something very important lest you continue to gain/lose for eternity
Elijah Bennett
That went above my head because I'm lying in bed and enjoying a tactical nap LOL
Lucas Garcia
look at it this way the center is where you ultimately want to be, or it should be because you can't lose or gain weight forever the further you stray from the center the quicker you see results, but the harder it is to go back
the safest policy for long term success is to always gravitate towards the center and not the extreme edge yes it'll take longer, but you won't feel like you're on a diet that you're desperate to end ASAP
What if you bounce to one extreme and then immediately correct your course to stay on center forever? It's beyond most people probably.
Jackson Johnson
for those who have lifted while doing C25k or any other cardio program, did you lift the same day you ran or on rest days? Cardio is the priority for me here, let me know about your experience.
Angel Gray
Wild game meat is fantastic for weightloss, especially boar meat. it's extremely tasty and has only around 130 calories and 22g protein per 100g, I have a couple of hunters in my family so I can have it regularly but I also know that in America there's a shitload of boars, so much that some states allow basically indefinite hunting on them. Here in Europe boar meat is very sought after and praised but I noticed that Americans mostly don't like it. Are the American boars that different tasting or do they taste different because of a different diet? With a couple of american hunters I talked with online I found out that they fucked up the taste while gutting the pig(you need to remove the testicles and sexual organs quickly because it fucks up the taste pretty fast after the kill and they didn't do it) but it would be weird if an entire nation of hunters just gut them wrong. Maybe it's just a prevalent myth that boars taste bad in America surrounding them
It was my birthday over the weekend so I ate a bunch of abject trash which is making me kinda sad as I jumped up like 8 pounds on the scale. I know it's water weight for the most part but I really blew it. My father bought this super rich cake for him and I since our birthdays are two days apart and I just feel gross now. Time to get back on the wagon, boys.
Adrian Peterson
Former fatty here. Went the extreme route to lose at first and then middled out with good habits once I finished losing, have been thin effortlessly for three years no calorie counting or weight gain because I mostly cook at home and its things I know dont have a lot of calories
Easton Roberts
nice, over 2 years without rebound is officially making it. What was your starting weight, current weight, diet and exercise program?
Blake Sanders
how long did it take you to find your balance after you were satisfied with your weight? were the fluctuations wild or did it stabilise easily? how much does it fluctuate now? do you have tolerances?
sorry for bombarding you, it's something I gotta think about in the near future
I feel like a fatcunt at 6'5, 250. Guess I'm a little baby.
Evan Smith
>McDoubles why? you spiked your insulin so then your body couldn’t access your stored fat.
Ian Stewart
I lift and then it depends how I feel, on a leg day I simply can't run or anything because my legs feel "weak", so I do the bike for 20 mins, since it's leg day after all.
I go to the gym 6 days a week, my plan is basically >1: Push - With 10+ mins rowing >2 Pull - With 10+ mins rowing >3: Legs - with deadlifts and 20min cycling >4: Cardio - Usually 30 mins on treadmill (like 10-15 running, rest walking at decent pace) then 20-30 mins on the bike >5: Haven't quite figured out what to do on this day so I just kind of wing it based on what feels sore or not. >6: Rest. Repeat back at 1.
But basically, yes, but not for a long amount of time.

I finally figured I need to buy myself a kitchen scale if I want to get real. Did just that, started weighing stuff and apparently I've been getting 650 calories a shot from 'eh, a couple of sandwiches can't be that bad'. Imma halve that shit anytime I eat it from now on. Weigh your food, anons.
kitchen scale is fucking fantastic, must have for CICO

> Been here since January (NYRFag) > Currently down about 80 pounds > Giving my parents updates so they are aware of how well I am doing My mother just asked me this morning if I could help her work out a plan to lose weight like me I’m a bit nervous, as this is an over 60 year old woman, so I can’t really tell her to lift However, it’s mostly diet and they do have an elliptical Was thinking of trying to keep things simple, have her stay 500-700 Cals below her TDEE (which will be much smaller than mine since she’s old and female) and maybe spend a few days on her elliptical if she can Any other suggestions? Since she doesn’t need to spare a huge amount of muscle should she eat as much protein? I was thinking of telling her to try for 80g maybe

She’s pretty big - over 250 I think, so I wouldn’t think it would be that low, but I will know more tomorrow - I use Scooby’s calculator to work out my TDEE, was planning on using that, expecting 1200-1500 Calories as a target

Any alcoholics fatties here drink white claw? Only 100 calories, low in carbs and zero sugars. I feel like this can be a good substitute from drinking beer if you can't stop from drinking.
I usually just stick to hard liquors and water/tea. Can't fucking wait for vacation to be over so I have a reason not to drink anymore.
Samuel Ross

The boars here in Texas are disgusting mutts of multiple different sub-species that grow to huge proportions (think 400 or even 600 pounds) with high body fat because they eat garbage and agricultural waste. They are edible but greasy. Lots of hunters just take shoulder/loins and call it a day, there's so goddamn many of them its not really a waste of precious meat or anything. Hell many farmers/ranchers will pay for you to shoot them.
Kevin Reed
There's no laws, when you're drinking the claws.

>3 large eggs >tilapia + one tsp of olive oil + lemon pepper >cup of black coffee

Anthony Roberts
thanks for the info user, yeah, our boars are much smaller and they have very little fat. Their diets are mostly based on forest foraging and raiding a farmer's field once in a while so there's no doubt they taste better compared to trash eating ones. Shame really, if you ever come to Europe try boar meat user, you won't be dissapointed

Amazing perks of getting thinner
Dylan Baker
If I'm only nabbing one meal today, and I've still got my calories tracked, is it acceptable to get fast food?
Jaxon Cruz
No. Texans have shot so many of them that most populations of boars have evolved to live predominately nocturally and are scared of loud noises/humans for the most part. You only see boar "attacks" in very rural areas and normally its younger boars doing false charges to scare you off their territory.
Ethan Perez
You can but why would you? Fast food is designed to not fill you up like normal food does so you end up eating 1.5k calories a meal to get the same feeling of a 500 calorie meal. It'll be easy to slip up.
Anthony Perry
That's fair enough. I'm going to be out all day and know I'll just fall asleep when I get in instead of cooking anything.
Logan Sanchez
I'd say just play it safe and get something less greasy like subway desu but just watch out with the bread/cheese/sauce that a lot of people go overboard with and end up making a sub as unhealthy as mcdonalds.
