>Who is /fat/ for? For larder LARP-ers who want to better themselves through meaningful hard-work, strategy, and dedication. This is not QTDDTOT, stick to questions on fat loss
>Now what do I do? Count calories, all of them. Calculate your TDEE at sedentary Buy scales, be accurate in your measurements Learn how to cook. Try to stick to lean protein and green vegetables. Eat a lot of protein. 1g per lb of goal body weight. Do cardio. Even if its just walking, cardio will improve your health which is sorely needed. There is no such thing as a healthy fat heart, but you can off set the risks. Lift weights. This will keep and gain muscle mass and burn fat much quicker. No lifting results in the body burning away muscle AND fat. You don't want this. Post your height/weight/screenshot of MFP/Cronometer food log when asking for advice
>DON'T Eat refined sugars, they're terrible for you regardless of calorie count Eat processed foods, or at least try to avoid if possible Drink your calories. Alcohol, soda, hot chocolate, fancy starbucks shit. forget it. Freak out over a stall in weight loss. Plateaus can last up to three weeks. "Reward" yourself. Be a retard.
do you cook your own meals? What are your favorite recipes? Did it help you on your weightloss journey? I cook every meal myself and it did wonders for my weightloss because I could control exactly how much calories was consumed and when I got good at it the food was fucking delicious

nice progress at least, what's your height and goal weight? I lost over 60 kg, the last 6kg I need to lose are refusing to go

Genuinely worried my gym's going to close because of this virus shit bros
Julian Mitchell
mine did yesterday. The whole building it was in(which also has a movie theater/theater, coffee shop, offices and our public library) shut down and won't open until the beginning of April due to fear of the virus. My town doesn't have anyone infected yet but I live in a region that's close to Italy and has a shitload of workers that go to Italy to work so the risk of it coming here is high

/fat/guy cooking cheatsheet
Weigh literally everything Where possible switch from olive oil to 1 cal spray Use brown rice instead of white rice for sweet GI gains Add vegetables if it won't ruin the dish Seasoning is close to or essentially zero calories, learn to love it
David Anderson
Rebumping this cause I'm too retarded to check number of posts before posting

>maintain 1900kcal diet without fail >lose an average of 2-3lbs a week for several weeks >weight fluctuates up for a few days in a row >begin to despair and consider doing a fast
If scales dont go down from my previous lowest weight every few days then I start to feel like im failing my diet. I know weight fluctuates so why am I like this?
Benjamin Myers
>Weigh literally everything This is such bad advice. Totally unsustainable.
Just avoid carbs and vegetable oil. Eat healthy foods like meat, eggs, and butter to satiety.
Adam Parker
That's because your body adapts to calorie deficit by reducing your metabolic rate. You are moving less, blinking your eyes slower among other things, talking about involuntary things you don't even notice. Stop being a cicocuck and start /fast/ing if you want results.
I like Italian dishes because they're easy to make and have good macros if you cut down on the pasta. You can make your own sauce by mixing chicken bullion, 400g tinned tomatoes, 8-12 rustic cut cherry tomatoes with garlic and dried herbs, then simmer for 10 mins. The sauce goes well with mince, meat balls, chorizo and deens. Stir fried chicken is always way nicer than pan fried or oven baked chicken breasts, and roast beef is goat.
>unsustainable dude it's only putting in a little amount of effort to keep track of what you eat. It takes a few seconds. This is why you're fat
Isaiah Young
Any fit people or recovering fatties, how do you properly enjoy food? It's known that fat people just shovel food down not properly chewing or enjoying the food, when I started losing weight I started chewing each bite 30+ times which makes me feel fuller, but I feel a bit mechanical, and I'm wondering if I'm getting the full range of flavours. What's the 'proper' way to get the full taste of what I'm eating, should I sniff it first, leave it in my mouth for a while before chewing etc?
Wyatt Ross
Swallow the fishpill bros. Extremely low fats, doesn't need much oil to get tasty if done well, extremely filling. You can start with the basics, i.e. buying frozen steamed mackerel in stores and dressing it at will (I like parsley, capers and i little drizzle of oil), then start trying to pan cook small fishes (lots of asian recipes here).
Jason Johnson
I’ve had that happen for 3 weeks before It’s rough but it’s not permanent in my experience Maybe cut an extra couple hundred Calories for a week if you want, it can’t hurt
Ayden Davis
There's no way with a TDEE of 3100 that i'm not losing weight. I assume i'm just retaining more water for some reason. I'm expecting the scales to have a big drop at some point.
Will definately add routine fasts to the weekend to help things along just to be sure.
Caleb Price
Anyone else start shitting weird since getting on their diet? I've been on the Mediterranean diet and I've been shitting pellets like a rabbit. It's a really weird sensation to have a bunch of orbeez fly out of your ass.
Jace Lee
is there anyone here who's doesn't have a scale at home/doesn't weigh themselves often? i never had one, and i thought getting one to track my weight could spiral into unhealthy behaviour i have a "starting weight" from when i went to the doctor about a month and a half before starting this whole weight loss thing but that's it. people in my life have definitely noticed and my clothes don't fit me properly anymore, so i'm definitely on the right track. i do plan on weighing myself eventually though, once i'm satisfied with my reflection in the mirror
Easton Lopez
There is nothing "unsustainable" about weighing your ingredients, you meme-diet-adled retard
Jonathan Martinez
Not having a scale seems retarded to me. I don't understand the mindset that makes anyone feel better without access to concrete data.
Hudson Sanders
Dreams of binging tonight,with healthy hard seltzer of course
>6'1, 206lbs >Down 72lbs >Still overweight, still visibly fat >Obese mother and normie sister are yelling at me for "being too thin" and "not eating enough" How much more do I need to lose before the fat around my hips and waist goes the fuck away? That's the problem zone that I really fucking hate.
I did something yesterday that I knew might trigger a binge, told myself what I needed to do to not binge, told myself I wasn't going to binge, then I binged. It felt like it had been a while since I last fucked up, but I checked my weight log and it had only been three days.
Levi Perry
I'm going to cook a burger tonight, will come to around 500 calories, so if i have that with 250 calories worth of potatoes it leaves me with 500 for the rest of the day.
Hudson Rodriguez
CICO is a meme bro. Ditch the potatoes and bun. Keto is the answer.
Joseph Perry
Nice CICO works and Keto is the answer to a question that wasn’t asked and no one cares about
Ethan Davis
probably gonna go out and get trashed tonight. sorry father.
>Don’t want to go to the gym because of corona virus Any good resources for home workout or should I just consult our gut Scooby
Aaron Gonzalez
Just CONSOOMED about 250g of brownies. Fuck me they weren't even that tasty. Basically sugar chocolatey bread. Looked up, that would be about 1100 kcal alone. That shit, alone.
How do I best repair this issue? Diet is otherwise good. Lots of chicken meat and eggs, lots of vegetables such as onion, tomato and pepper. Can I just cardio that shit off? I'm about to head out roller bladin'
Daniel Ortiz
>It's known that fat people just shovel food down not properly chewing or enjoying the food
This is bullshit. Are you even a real fatty?
Kevin Thompson
>How do I best repair this issue it's best to just accept you delayed reaching your target weight and move on. i tried this many times, cutting the extra calories in the following days, working it off, etc. it just makes it harder and you fuck up again.
Colton Allen
I took a cheat weekend and after decided to eat an extra 250 cal/day since my cut was too hard. I still can't stop going over my limit.
Benjamin Hill
I know this feeling.
Wyatt Davis
I think I'm better off avoiding prolonged fasts. I did pick up the habit of naturally doing 16:8, so I'm satisfied with that. Plus I'm actually trying to solve the problem now (shitty diet) instead of eating like crap and then starving myself.
Like said, but I would recommend lifting too if you already haven't started. Do a higher protein diet with lots of whole foods and low carb meals. Not Keto, that's retarded though
Ryder Reyes
Puke it out and cry nigga
Daniel Perez
Feel you there. Fasting sucks and just eating when you’re hungry rather than at set times is just so much better
Robert Sullivan
Your tdee isn't 3100.
Colton Ramirez
I'd say it's a pretty known fact that fat people don't chew their food properly, one of the first tips for weight loss I see all over the place is chew properly and make sure your meals take longer than 20 minutes so you feel full, they enjoy the full feeling but not the actual subtle flavors, which is why they just consume a shit ton of sugar and salt. And i'm still a fatty now hopefully I won't be in a couple months.
That's how it happened to me too last time I quit my diet, just ravenous hunger 24/7.
To think I was like just 5-6kg away from my goal body hurts even more.
Owen Perry
By fatties enjoy the full feeling I mean excessively full from eating a whole pizza or bucket of chicken etc, not the fullness you get from eating a proper meal in a suitable amount of time.
Ayden Cox
Yeah i can relate to that, I really love good food but I need to stuff my mouth full to enjoy it.
Jackson Parker
>notice big box of pepperoni sticks at store >grab one >no nutrition info on it >Google the brand, Google says 60 calories a stick >hey, that's pretty good, and they're tasty >start eating 5 or 6 of them a day >replace beef jerky as my standard snack >hit a plateau even though I'm at a solid 1k deficit >carry on for a couple of weeks >today at the store, go for my pepperoni sticks >box has been turned around >there's nutrition information on the back >220 per pepperoni DON'T CRY FOR ME, I'M ALREADY DEAD
Colton Lopez
Yep same for me, thats why I was asking for advice on how to 'properly' eat, because I'm trying to feel more satiation. Just chewing a lot is just making eating feel like a chore.
Ayden Morales
Imagine:
>myfitnesspal suffers a huge data breach >all exercise and food logs are leaked
What's the most embarrassing thing that would be associated with your account
Levi Hughes
Your facts are shit. I'm a fatty and I enjoy the taste of food just fine. If you want to lose weight you have to exercise (more) and eat less (and stop eating junk food). Stop kidding yourself with these meme tricks and stop misinforming the other fatties.
Easton Williams
This shit kills me. >Official manufacterer website for a low-cal dessert I want to try says the calorie count is 270 >drive to the store to buy it >package in hand says the calorie count is 400
Gavin Peterson
Ok now I'm pretty sure you're just trolling, it's taught in schools that the time to digest food is 20 minutes and that the obese don't chew properly. There's a difference between enjoying a proper meal, and enjoying stuffing yourself with grease and chemicals.
Jason Robinson
that's what you get for being a filthy meatcuck.
Nathaniel Myers
How many days of the week should I lift?
Angel Campbell
I did enter semen once to see if it was on there but it wasn't.
