>Who is /fat/ for? For feta orbiters 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.
Why do you overeat? Why do you binge? For me it was stress eating, I took comfort in food and that fucked me up. In the last year I've learned self discipline and how to recognize the stress "hunger" so I never binged once

242lbs today. Down about 18lbs since starting this month. Feeling slow and sluggish now. Want to workout. Took EC stack and it’s helped but not much. Only want to do pull-ups, dips, maybe rows, some stationary bike/walking but feel fatigued
Ethan Johnson
For me it’s a weird cycle. I’ll get a little depressed and decide along the lines of “fuck it I’m down as fuck and I can afford one shitty meal in fit as fuck” and then as I get more depressed I keep turning to the food, a mix of shitty stuff being easier to eat since there’s no preparation involved and using it as a coping mechanism. Then I get more depressed because I’ve started getting fat and stopped being healthy.
Leo Rivera
It's the starting of something that's always the hardest.
Tyler Long
Yeah but it didn’t start until yesterday. Usually the sluggishness starts in the first couple weeks then goes away, mine started a month into it
Eli Bell
Y'all think I'm gonna get loose skin? 6ft 205 lbs. I would like to have a brad pit fight club type of body
fuckin based, the best portable breakfast if you don't care about eating like a robot. Pounding a packet of these with water is top tier cutting dedication
Caleb Nguyen

Evan Reyes
I started my diet on the 24th of February. I was 125kgs. Basically I do Omad from Monday to Monday with Wednesdays my cheat day. I usually do one week of this, and then the following week I give up and do 2 meals a day up until like Thursday and then find myself binge eating until the following Monday, usually 4000 to 6000 calorie binges, where I resume the Omad style. I'm now 114kgs. It's working in some way obviously but I feel like I'm losing still. How do I stop binging bros and learn to be normal
Charles Morris
tfw have lost a lot of weight in quarantine, sticking to diet, working out everyday. No excuses, we’re all gonna make it
Hey user! OMAD might just not be for you. You might benefit from eating 3 balanced meals a day, maybe not a lot of calories but try to include a ton of low calorie, high fiber vegetables to keep full. I'm a fan of celery and carrots, but you do you. Remember, whatever you choose it has to be sustainable over the long term.
Chase Thomas
No you won't have loose skin. You can easily cut to 170 in four months time, then start adding muscle mass. You'll look fine.
Xavier Scott
Just don't eat like don't put food in your mouth
Jason Green
i really hope this "i'm dying" feeling goes away after a while lmao, I can barely think straight due to low energy, I hope it's not beetus lol
Julian Gray
For the first time in a long time i don't feel like raiding the fridge despite having nice home cooked meals in there right now. I think i have finally adapated to all the corona bs.
Andrew Scott
how long have you been dieting? Weight and height? How much calories a day are you eating?
Gabriel Thompson
You know i am not sure how to feel about this Is this progress or not? I tried to have a cheat day today I was in the store getting the cheat day snacks and was getting that feeling that my body was rejecting the food before it even went into my belly I broke my fast with a quatro leche cake (a small square and flan I only finished part of the flan and threw it out Then i didnt have room to finish my actual dinner so I had to pack it away Im just so used to killing everything on my plate even if im full Its a terrible habit from childhood But im slowly breaking this habit and i wont pass it down to my descendants
Liam Edwards
Getting close to a month now. 120kg, 175cm. 2500 calories. Calculated according to scooby's website. I also do 30 minutes a day on the stair machine, and I think that's the part that fucks me up most, for some reason cardio interferes with my sleep patterns, I get too jittery to sleep properly after I do it.
Colton Clark
2500 is a shitload of calories so you shouldn't be feeling any weakness, how much weight did you lose this month? I'm just 1 cm taller than you, starting weight was 144 kg but my calorie intake from 144kg to 100 kg was 1800 cals a day(from 100kg to my current weight of 76 kg I've kept it at 1500 cal a day). My main exercise was cycling for an hour each day. I've never felt weak with a calorie intake much lower than yours, maybe you're still not used to the exercise but if the feeling persists for the next month get checked. Exercising always woke me up and made me feel energized for the rest of the day so I also couldn't do it in the evenings. My advice would be to wake up an hour earlier and do the exercise in the morning before work, it will be hard for the first couple of weeks but after you get used to it's easy.
Dylan Price
Thanks for the advice. I've always had issues with the endocrine system (wake up with puffy hands sometimes for no discernible reason), been tested for beetus throughout my life (fat since childhood), but it always came up negative. My neurologist also said something about an anomaly in the hypothalamus (which causes sleep problems), but I just can't get any conclusive diagnosis. I'm hoping that if I fix my diet, lose weight and start exercising, the body will adjust and it'll just go away on its own.
