How the FUCK did I find this enjoyable.
What the hell was wrong with me to get to this point. Holy shit bros.

you could've just stopped at the pizza dude, god damn. even then a whole pizza for you? how about a couple slices.

Carbs are addictive.

I used to do this all the time, just getting absolutely stuffed, as my weight shows. It was my "escape". Well it doesn't work anymore, I don't know how I tolerated it. It's kinda nice when you're eating but after that it just makes me feel ill. Kinda glad I had this stupid cheat day cause I'm even more motivated now.

Some days ago I saw a fat kid walking down the street , he was struggling to walk and grasping for air , I had the urge to throw things at him and tell him to run , then I had a thought that this is probably how people used to view me before I lost the weight
I'm thankful I did it , you should do it too anons it's worth it

Ate at least 2000kcal extra today.
I should have lost weight by now, doing fasts, but I'm only gaining.

Last week I skipped the gym like three times and drank a bunch of beer on Saturday night Still eating pretty well and keeping a deficit.
>I simply consume nicotine and drink water when I’m hungry haha
I’m still obese, but I went from 5’6, 197, down to 188 as of this morning. Feels alright, honestly.

Two months into /fat/ and feel like I'm crushing it, down to 173lbs from 209lbs... I feel great but deep down I feel that I won't be able to keep these healthy habits later in life and revert back to being a fat retard.

Anyone else with this feel?

you are going to lose so much progress with this shit just stop

losing weight is not the end goal you sad cunts

you have to get shredded now

>urge to be a dick to him
it's a fuckin kid bro, if you really want him to thin out you can get it across without being a fuckin asshole.

Don't fall for the desperation Jew , desperation is an illusion of defeat , when your brain tells you that you are going to lose , tell him that you are winning , if you want more advice you can visit /x/ they helped my fighting with the porn Jew

I've lost 70+lbs, I'm at 175 lbs.

I bought a mirror to hang on my door, I actually don't hate what I see. I'm gonna love my body again when I hit my goal weight. I didn't have a mirror and never really looked at myself much or took any pictures while I was fat. But when someone took a picture of me I hated what I saw.

I'm also surprised at my muscles.

It's an urge man , when I stand next to a cliff I have an urge to jump down , it's natural

>36lbs in 2 months
That’s absolutely phenomenal. Post body progress pics if you have them, brother.

>when I stand next to a cliff I have an urge to jump down
u wot

Are you a wagecuck? If so, I think we might be. Also have you noticed the face gains yet?

U don't ?

sorry to hear you're a fucking retard man. It looks terminal from where I'm standing.

no

Thanks for the kind word
You are abnormal

Most people have the urge to back away from the fucking cliff you ass hat.

Different people different tastes

I too want to die, Satan.

Ate a whole pack of tea cookies last night. On top of the frozen yogurt my wife brought when she went out with her sis & niece. On top of the KIND bar I snuck when I went to get stuff to make breakfast. On top of the Jack in the Box chicken strips and fried jalapeños I had the night before.
Also been skipping the swim @ gym cause my doggo caught kennel cough, And I skipped exercise to keep him company.

I wish I was joking, basically got black out drunk and then woke up to the only food available being cake. This being a house party.

Facegains have definitely started. My slight double chin is pretty much completely gone and my face is just a lot less round and "puffy" looking. I've noticed the most on legs though, they don't have much fat on them anymore, belly sill big but a huge improvement.

Decide to take my life back beginning of May. 6'3, 270. This morning, 238. Another 23 pounds and I'll be at goal. Realize that I have passed the halfway point, that amount of weight I've lost is more than the amount of weight I've left to lose. This feeling is amazing.
We're all gonna make it.

>back with parents for the weekend
>mom buys whole bag full of candied almonds from local fair

fuCK I can't stop eating them

Just keep in mind that this is a lifestyle change, my dude... When we hit our goal weights, we keep going and become killing machines. I'm only cutting down from 220lbs to 200, but the idea is the same. We go every day and become the best that we can be. No more dicking around, my dude. We're going to make it.

i actually know what you mean
it's less an urge to jump and more being filled with the knowledge that you could, and it would be so easy. but you don't want to.

miscalculated and ate 25 carbs today instead of 20

im not gonna make it. im borderline suicidal right now

whats your diet like? any excerise?

I've been doing omad w/ a small snack some other time in the day (usually the night) how likely is a small size (650cal) beef/bean burrito from Canadian chipotle ripoff to fuck up my weight loss this week because of salt and carbs?

I really want to be in the 160s by the beginning of September and I'm currently at 171 I'm super close and I don't wanna fuck this up

>losing 3 pounds per week
>no cheat days at all
>keeping busy
Feels good man. Starting to wonder where my stopping point should be, when I can start eating maintenance calories again.

didn't count calories for 2 days but i know that i'm still in deficit

Well anons. Life is a yoyo huh. Got down to a good BMI and left y'all for a while....but sadly I'm back. Back at fucking 212.6. I need you anons more than ever. We are STILL going to make it!

You can make it fellow Nuichad.

Carbs aren't food. Carbs are an addictive drug. If you were a recovering alcoholic would you have a drink?

Talk to women. This I tried to fuck stressed me so much that I over ate for like a week straight, I made up for it swimming but I still gained a bit of weight. I swear to god I got the biggest black pill from this

Losing weight and just saw something. I have a relatively deep voice and just realized that my Adam's apple gives me a huge ass double chin with its placement. Forcing it up makes it look better but I sound like Kermit when I talk. Should I just accept my eternal turkey neck?

It won't mess up anything long term. The salt will roll off within a week, easily.

How many calories do you eat on average, /fat/? I average between 1000 and 1200.

I’ve felt the same thing - I read an article once saying it’s normal and happens to a lot of people

1800, and im down 20lbs since may 1

On average 1200-1500.

Right now I'm the lightest I've been guys, I weighed 351lb in July of 2017 and now I weigh 211lb but recently its feeling like my own family is trying to sabotage.me, last couple weeks my siblings have been buying some of the most unhealthy shit imaginable and its agonizing because I have to resist everytime and stay on my diet.

What do

Carbs are very important in any diet, but they should be limited.

stop it, you'll trigger the ketards

wew lads, I am never going back there again, also no air conditioning, it smelled like a locker room, and there were more assholes throwing weights around and slamming them on the floor
the worst thing is, my uni's gym has 2 squat racks, one of them a gymbro was using to do chin ups and the other had its bar stolen by sole thot in the whole room to do meme excercises

I'm going to redpill you a bit from someone who thought this when he was 120kg and now is 85kg. Yeah you kinda can but they still don't look good enough and you have to change clothes every single time you lose just 2kg or so when you are thinner.

Unless you are like sub 18% it will never look like you want it to look

This. Streetwear originates from skate culture and you'll notice that there are barely any fat skaters. There's like one fat pro skater I know of and even he's like ~5'10 190 lbs so he's not even that fat.

I have a bunch of larger shirts and jackets but the outline just doesn't work while you're above 22% body fat.

I'm 115kg -> 75kg(~stable) so I think my claim stands desu, at least in my personal case.

Great job on your progress btw friend

You know this info hardly means anything without considering each user's weight. I just switched to 1000-1200cal a day this week after eating an average of 700cal a day for months. I'm 111 lbs after losing almost 70 lbs.

It's a lot easier to put on pants, leggings, socks, and shoes while standing up.

Height? Mirin' bro. If I was your weight I'd be ottermode and would rock preppy clothes 24/7

How long did it take you to lose the last 10kg? I feel like I have reached another plateau and I'm focusing more on lifting weights for now, I feel thinner even if the scale doesn't change but the numbers not going down fucks with me because regardless of how much fat I'm burning, the end goal for me is 75kg

Ironically enough, the last 5-10kg were some of the fastest I've dealt with since I tried fasting for longer periods for the first time in my life (at least >4 days).

5'11" king of manlets

You're gonna make it friend, if you're the 120>85 guy you're percentually already like 80% there

I might consider getting a tattoo.

>tfw want one but hairy as shit

I actually managed to clip my toenails today without discomfort or labored breathing - that was pretty nice

/fast/ing is based. I lost my last 10kg doing OMAD but is not sustainable right now because I've stopped being a NEET recently and I need actual fuel for this, I love OMAD tho easiest weight loss I've done. Well congrats again on your new you, I'm gonna try to add some cardio and eating at maintenance for a month, I'll fast again if it doesn't work. And yeah I'm the 120>85 guy

What's the point of losing weight ?

I lose 50lbs and Im 143 lbs and Im still looks like shit, high bf no muscles, fat pig,

IM GONNA BULK AT 5000 CALORIES FOR 4 MONTHS TO GET MUSCLES AND CUT IT ALL FUCK I HATE MY BODY

Attached: zrwxqL7.jpg (236x236, 7K)

I would never get a tattoo because it's zoomer cringe IMO. But what I'm gonna do 100% sure is chest laser removal, I'm not actually gonna laser it off entirely just gonna make it a bit less hairy and more aesthetic since I dont't want to have a gay shaved chest permanent. Also gonna get it done on my ass, but not the cheeks, the inside, next to my anus and the gap between my balls and my ass probably.

Unironically gonna reward myself with that once I lose the weight lol

did you seriously think cutting would get you muscles

imagine being the guy that spends all day lasering people's perineums

I was thinking to become thin like a skeleton

>Imagine the smell of perineum hair burning

Been gymming for about two months now. Doing the Scooby's workshop intermediate dumbbell workout and seeing nice gains and less fat. Does anyone have tips for pull-up progressions? I've been using the lat machine and I'm trying to get to 3*5-8 bodyweight. Hopefully I'll be able to do at least one real pull-up then

If you mean CBD i've been trying to get into that. I'm currently viceless besides eating like a sow and I've never smoked pot before. Are the vapes any good? Or do they have ecig versions? I've never done either so im pretty ignorant.

I didn't eat enough today since I basically ate a little under 500 calories. I'm laying in bed feeling tired and hungry as fuck and don't want to get up to eat but I'm still suffering.
Was going to fry up some chicken soon but meh, it can wait.
This is a bad habit of mine that leads to binges and skipping gym time. Need to go lift.

Water fasting, or one meal a day?

I need to lose at least 30 lbs.

I gave up today. What's even the point of self improvement if you hate the world and yourself.
I'll be back on track tomorrow though because my womanly emotions will disappear like usual.

24 50kcal meals per day

shit, you just convinced me to try omad

why are fastfags so abrasive and irritable
is it their diet?

Ate two brownies yesterday. Sinned and going to hell
