>Who is /fat/ for?
For the enormous ewes working towards a longer life and a better physique through meaningful hard-work, strategy, and dedication. This is not QTDDTOT, stick to questions on fat loss. Post height and weight when asking for advice.

>What do I do first?
1. Read https://physiqonomics.com/fat-loss/
2. Calculate your Body Fat Percentage: https://fitness.bizcalcs.com/Calculator.asp?Calc=Body-Fat-Navy
3. Calculate your TDEE: https://www.sailrabbit.com/bmr/
Remember to use bodyfat% and use Katch-McArdle Formula with sedentary settings or your TDEE will be too high.
4. Plan your weight loss: https://www.losertown.org/eats/cal.php
5. Track your nutrition with MyFitnessPal (better for packaged food), Cronometer (better for generic food/macros), LoseIt (great for both), or Waistline (FOSS).

>Now what?
Count calories, all of them.
Eat about 500-1000 less calories than your TDEE.
Buy scales, be accurate.
Learn to cook. Try to stick to lean protein and green vegetables.
Eat a lot of protein. 0.72g per pound of goal lean body mass.
Doing cardio, even just walking, will improve your health. There is no such thing as a healthy fat heart, but you can offset the risks.
Lifting weights will keep and gain muscle mass and lose fat much quicker. Not lifting results in the body eating away muscle AND fat.
Drink more water.
Read the /fit/ sticky: https://liamrosen.com/fitness.html

>DON'T
Eat refined sugars, they're terrible for you regardless of calories.
Eat processed foods.
Drink your calories (alcohol, soda, Starbucks).
Freak out over a weight loss stall. Plateaus can last up to three weeks.
"Reward" yourself. Cheat days cheat only yourself.

Have you considered getting psychological help anon? Either a psychiatrist or an addiction consultant (no idea what they are called in english, the people who help you get off drugs).
If you're considering an heroing, even ironically (for now, you'd be surprised how quickly ironic becomes sincere), it's worth a try.
Back when I went to therapy a part of it was the thought that after it inevitably fails I'll at least be able to say "I tried what I could" and then do the deed with a good conscience. I don't like admitting it because it's a pussy move, but it was part of my motivation.
Turns out therapy fixed me over the course of 1.5 years and I'm better off than I ever thought possible - who knows might be worth a try for you too. Worst case, you can at least say you tried everything in your power first. Best case you'll find a way to make life worth living and have fun while doing so

>>76367923
If you already know that then you know what you have to do right?

>>76368030
Willpower is a finite resource, we can only resist for so long. What does your diet currently look like? What are you craving specifically? If you can identify what you're lacking, you might find a low calorie option that will satisfy your craving without binging on slop.

>>76367961

How would you know? I expected the same and was totally wrong
>I hate myself and no kike in a chair is going to change that.
You'd be surprised. I had an intense level of self hatred, it arguably was the main thing that kept me going at that point.
>I couldnt afford it now even if I wanted to.
Well that part sucks. I live in a country where it was free, so I can't say anything about that. My condolences. What about the addiction places? They also help with habit building and healthy ways to cope with withdrawals. Those are usually free because they aren't for profit.

Starting my /fit/ journey in the summer was a mistake, I'm covered in sweat just by existing and by the end of both my walks and my home workouts my T-shirt is completely drenched. I'd probably get banned from the gym if I tried going.

>>76368094
Think of it like this: your fat (of which there is a great surplus) is acting as an insulator. That means you will retain a lot of heat in general. Being outside in the sun, as well as utilizing calories (note the phrase "burning calories"), your body is going to be heating up a lot. In response, you sweat, and you'll have to sweat a lot in your case because of insulating all that heat with your own fat.

If you're in a gym, you'll still sweat, but there will almost assuredly be AC and spaces you can exercise without getting ray-fucked by the sun. So, if you want to give it a shot, go. If you sweat, and you probably will, it's fine, because everyone in there will be sweating too. Just drink water and carry a rag or at least find some paper towel to wipe down the equipment.

Why are you fat fucks not eating Greek yoghurt RIGHT NOW?
>Excellent protein to calorie ratio
>Easily accessible in most markers
>Not overwhelmingly expensive
>Easy to plan out, easy to eat
>Can get all kinds of additions and taste great, offering infinite variety
Skyr and kefir are also acceptable choices. I used to eat entire tubs of yoghurt just because it was so comfy and hit all my macros. They're great when you leave them in a freezer overnight too, because they can thicken up without turning to straight ice, becoming kind of like stiff ice cream if anything.

>>76367904
... or a healthy coping mechanism.

>>76367961
Why not do a workbook by yourself? The DBT workbook is great. Just view the free pages and see if it resonates.
Alternatively I do a 12 step program but I remove God and focus on self reliance. For example I'm on step 7, asking God to remove my defects. I've got my list of my character defects like aggression, cynicism, resentment, and im supposed to be praying on each until Im willing for God to remove them. Instead, im just thinking about them and why I feel i need them, and I move on to another when im ready to actually give them up and start working on them. I need my perfectionism because it helps me, I dont WANT to be without my need to constantly strive to being the best I can be because without it I feel it means im not trying or I'm giving up. But I'll get there as I keep challenging my mindset. God has done nothing for me. My own resilience and adaptability has.

Steak and potatos and broccoli. Tell me you need more.

>>76367961
Why choose to relapse? What's the point? It won't make you feel better.

Most commercial greek yoghurt is actually just normal yoghurt with some liquid drained off. If you drain off even more you get labneh, an s-tier sandwich spread.
That being said, have a look for german magerquark/low fat quark, it has even better macros. In the likely event that they don't have that look for skyr, it was cool a few years ago so now it's pretty widespread. Almost the same macros and a bit smoother (though mixing the Magerquark achieves the same)

dieting nuked my test despite working out too, what can i do to pick it up without pinning?

>>76368251
>retatrutide
Honestly anon, people really like to shit on medication here, at the end of the day it's just an appetite suppressant, you can literally get the same results from just dieting if you can conjure up a tiny bit of willpower, but if you genuinely think it will help you reach your goals and you have the money to buy that shit every month(not exactly a cheap drug), then just do it. Better a /fraud/ than a fattie.

I WANT TO SEX A WOMAN AHHHHHHH

I have a sweet tooth that is going to give me diabetes eventually and I hate that there is no way that I have found to curb it. Like I go farel sometimes and start tearing up my house looking for anything to take the edge off. His has been an ongoing battle since i was a teenager and I'm 30 now. I've started only leaving my home with my driver's license and no cash/cards to keep me from buying anything from the snack shop at work. My wife however (who is not trying to be /fit/ brings home stuff all the time knowing what the result will be.

I lift 6 days a week on a push/pull split and cardio 3 days a week boxing/running but I dont think I can lose any more body fat without getting a lobotomy.

>>76368267
They use Electrical Impedance, it sends a small electrical current through the body usually through one foot and measures the resistance encountered on the other foot. Muscle, Skin, Fat, Bone, Water ect will all have different resistance values but generally fat will resist the current more than muscle will so if it gets higher resistance readings it'll assume you have more fat on you.

Its a really imprecise way to measure body composition because there are so many factors boiled down into a single reading and no way to determine the exact composition of each, its really just guessing blindly based on one data point.

DEXA scans are currently the gold standard for body composition, those work by sending two different X-Ray beams with varying energy levels through the body which are absorbed by different tissues at different rates and mapping this across your body, this gives a much clearer picture of what exactly is going on inside you.

>>76368196
I get why it may be tempting to have some protein shake things when you're suffering for protein. Personally, I'm hesitant to do something like that because I want some micronutrients to work with too. I'd note which kind you'd buy at least, since some variations can be much better than others. I personally think getting unflavored stuff is best, since you can just add a 0-cal sweetener (like stevia) and/or additions you like to make your own flavors with less sugar calories.
>>76368222
Quark would be nice, but it's not nearly as readily available (I don't think I can find it at most local grocers). For me, skyr is available at some select places, but notably more expensive unfortunately, so I rarely have it. Based alternatives either way. I'd like to try labneh someday.

electrical impedance. It's not very accurate though, the manufacturer claims it can be off by 3.5%

I'd double that at a minimum, just having a glass of water or taking a piss before measuring yourself can throw it off by that much. Hydration level plays a huge role in your resistance, so if you want it to think you've got less fat drink a bunch of water before you measure yourself, and dehydrate yourself if you want it to think you're really fat.

Usually when I snack I don't really think about it and end up with something massive, definitely an addiction, and always end up asking myself why I didn't stop myself afterwards. Tonight I realised this mid way curating a midnight feast and was able to repackage the food and leave my kitchen without grabbing too much too eat (already had a tiny thing when I got there since obviously I can't stop myself). I am sort of happy I was able to stop myself from grabbing more and I hope I will realise it again in the future but it is something I struggle with a lot.

Likely the longest run i've ever done. Not breaking any records for time thats for sure but quite a step for a fatty who was winded walking up a flight of stairs last year. Wagmi fat bros

Last 4 weeks noticed a good bit of fat lost in my thighs but almost nothing in my stomach/neck/face.

That's ok though, there's not much left on my thighs and I'm sure over the next month or two Ill lose fat in my stomach/neck/face because there will be nowhere else to lose it.

I know the basic physics behind it. Hence why I always measure myself in the morning right after I pee, but before I drink anything.

Which is how you should weigh yourself anyway.
If you step on the scale before peeing but after chugging down a bottle of water, you'll be 1-3 lbs heavier just from that.

unironically just buy some cheap chinkshit off of amazon. i bought some expensive stuff in the beginning but they get loose as quick as the cheap stuff from china. just make sure you wash it intensively before wearing it for the first time.

My "untrained" physique. I really only look normal at BMI 14s.

Peak schizo

>>76367794 (OP)
apparently asians have a different BMI scale wtf?

>>76368861
Literally who cares

Just finished another 3+ day fast and lost another 2.2 pounds. Eating after a prolonged fast is always disappointing. For all the time you spend thinking about it, you get very full after a small amount of food and it never tastes as good as you would expect.

I'm down ~11 pounds of fat in the last month and a half. Probably going to stop doing prolonged fasts soon because they're getting harder and I'm getting close to my target bodyfat %

>>76368861
Based. Theirs is more accurate.

>>76368861
Asians are worse at tolerating being fat. They accumulate more visceral fat and die before hitting my600lblife -status. Japan has high nafld prevalence despite not being country of fatties.

>>76368861
I think this depends on where in Asia. Where I live there's no "overweight" category, you just go straight from normal to obese at BMI 25 (and the doctors will treat you as such).

>>76368861
racial differences are real, the Jews lied to you.

I wish there was a fast forward button. Waiting to not be fat is a worse version of watching paint dry.

>>76367861
Just got mine done, my back is aching thanks to the weighted vest I need to sit down for a bit. When I started my back would kill me after just 3k steps and it took me months to work up to 10k. I had just recently gotten to the point where walking 10k steps didn't hurt my back, but the vest has brought it back. Guess this is progressive training.

>>76368602
Same, but I'm only down ~150lbs and I'm disgusted by my loose skin, and yeah I recently bought compression clothing. Not to keep people from seeing the skin flaps, I don't give a fuck about that, but to stop the skin flaps from clapping when I run which is noisy and uncomfortable.

>>76368604
You really don't want to see it, even I'm disgusted to look at myself but I'm not too ashamed to post body if pressed.

>>76368964

>>76368877

>>76368964
Post body, I need something to demotivate me from losing fat

without plastic surgery, do skin flaps eventually heal up or are you just screwed forever

>>76368964
>but to stop the skin flaps from clapping when I run which is noisy and uncomfortable.
kek same for me. the worst thing to do for me is running stairs down with loose clothing. makes my ass cheeks clap like hell.

>>76368964
how much is your weighted vest?
and how much do you weigh?

3 more months to go

You are losing 1.9 lbs/week of total weight.

You are burning 962 cal/day more than you eat.
You have been tracking your weight for 13.1 months.

You have 26.6 lbs to lose to reach your goal weight.

You will reach your goal around October 16, 2025.

You must cut 38 cal/day to match your plan.

>>76368991
I dont have a goal weight, my goal is to be 8% or so bodyweight
just absolute skin, muscle and bones
then I can re-assess if I ever want to get skin surgery

What would you guess my BF% is?

I guess around 27% ?

5'10 and 167 pounds.

Yes I am lifting results take time.

>>76369021
I guess you should kill yourself

>>76369021
20-23%
You literally never work physically or work out right?

>>76368970
>>76368978

>>76368982
For me its mostly my tits and arm wings.

>>76368988
Vest off I'm 187.0lbs
Vest on I'm 213.3lbs
So according to my scale the vest is 26.3lbs

>>76369026
???

>>76369029

I was just doing cardio until last week. 25k-30k steps a day usually.

Lifting now, didn't expect it to he that low because I can still grab and jiggle my belly a bit. Less than an inch of protruding belly though.

Down 100 pounds since December.

>>76369031
Holy shit

>>76369031
that is A SHIT TON Of loose skin.

what weight did you start at?

>>76369021
is that a nazi salute

>>76369048
No, not chuddy.

Just trying to not block my body in the mirror.

>>76369036
how do you hit that many steps everyday?

>>76369060
He doesn't, he's lying.

>>76369043
Not sure, I didn't buy a scale to weigh myself until I had already lost a considerable amount of weight. I usually ballpark it to 350lbs, but I honestly have no idea.

>>76369031
Nice weightloss, I hope you're saving/having money for surgery

>>76369060
From shortly after I wake up I try to be walking almost always, sitting down very rarely until after 5-6PM.

June was a bad month, my cat had to be put down and GF left me the next day. Shut down for a bit. Back on track now.

>>76369064
I do

>>76369073
Care credit exists too, if he builds up his credit score honestly worth it.

>>76369084
and you are currently working too or just like walking all day? seems sick though dude keep up the good work

>>76369031
Damn you're gunna need some of that loose skin surgery for sure.
Good progress on the fat loss though.

>>76369084
Must be nice being a loser neet with nothing but time

>>76369031
why is life so unfair?

>>76368150
I eat a pound almost everyday.

>>76369098
I am living frugally on savings right now, but I am either going back to work soon or going for a trade/associates.

X-ray tech, vacuum, or plumber probably.

I am trying to work myself upto an hour of 20% incline walking a day to save time.

Thanks for the respect, still a lot more to do but I am so happy with my progress ao far.

>>76369100
Nah, gotta be careful with money. Planning on getting back into work/school/training within the next 2 months.

>>76369150
Hvac*

I’m doing 10k steps a day but the gut isn’t going away

>>76369170
then you're eating too much, QED

>>76369172
It’s possible but could it be hormones?

>>76369184
No, eat less.

>>76369184
could be hormones
could be rare disease
could be divine intervention

but you're eating too much actually

>>76369073
>>76369099
I'm considering it though I don't have any means to pay for it. I've still got plenty of weight to lose first, 30lbs more at least, and I'll see how much I'm left with if I can lose the rest and keep it off a year. They say the skin will tighten up a bit if I manage to keep it off for a year after losing it. This time last year I hadn't even started losing weight yet, I only started in September. Ultimately that's a problem for future me and I'll cross that bridge when I come to it. Right now I'm still focused on losing the fat.
>>76369088
I'm a caregiver to two disabled family members who require 24/7 care. I live off their monthly disability. I don't have a bank account or credit card in my own name, nor any income of my own, I'm essentially unemployed so I'm probably kinda fucked on that front.
>>76369121
That's the results of ~18 years of being a shut-in who didn't give a fuck. I deserve it for spending that long being a massive fatass.

I don't have any before pictures, I avoided cameras all the years I spent as a shut-in, but I do have the pants I started with, these just barely fit me when I started losing weight, I was on the very last loop on the belt and even then it was pretty tight.

>>76369170
10k steps a day isn't a lot though. someone who works at a department store gets that in their first few hours of their shift. you aren't trying

>>76369021
>I guess around 27% ?
yeah seems about right

Walking is such a scam, boring shit that nets you almost nothing for the time spent.
Cycling, swimming, running, all superior to pure walking.

>>76369200
It's a fine starting point for someone obese, but they should definitely work their way up to 15k and 20k at least.

Or do those 10k at a steep incline.

>>76369170
you can walk 20k steps but if you're stuffing your face then you wont lose weight

>>76369223
I read, shitpost, watch movies/shows, or play vidya while walking all for 5 hours a day

>>76369021
Somewhere around 25%. Around 155, youre gonna need to stop losing weight and put some muscle on or risk being unhealthy. Nice work and roman salute.

>>76368981
With enough time and maintenance and SMALL bulk cut cycles, yes

>>76369237
Yeah 150-155 is where I planned to stop, am lifting now. 25% ain't bad.

Haha, just awkward positioning getting thr picture, I am the worst photographer I know.

>>76369031
Insane progress. You've fucking done it. You've just got to maintain it.

>>76369197
Nice progress fren
Maybe see the loose skin as some battle scar

>>76369270
wow anon being nice about loose skin instead of shitting on them for getting fat in the first place,nice change of pace /fit/

No not bad at all. Nice job.

No weight loss. But in my defense, I've recently started exercising regularly and my muscles are loading up on water and glycogen

>inb4 muh carbs

>>76367794 (OP)
For fatty cuts of meat, how do you count the calories?
For example bacon is absurdly high in calories imo at anywhere from 300 to 500 something calories per 100g, but a LOT of fat is rendered when you cook it, so how would you take that into account?
Same with duck breast or porkchops etc.

Day 1 of only using my phone outside, standing, or when I'm on my exercise bike.
Either I'll get rid of my 4chan and youtube addiction or I'll get shredded trying.

>>76369031
You need to start lifting, you can probably fill out some of that loose skin with muscle if you do.

You can always get surgery for loose skin, dont let it deter you. It probably won't be as bad as that guy's.

What are some of your guys' favourite meals? I normally just eat porridge and pasta and wraps with chicken but I want to have more options. I tried using grok for meal plans but it keeps creating gay shit with coconut oil and avocados and 12 different fruits a week.

>>76369335
Chicken and Broccoli (air fried)

>>76369321
OF COURSE IT DOES
MOST PEOPLE LOSE WEIGHT TO LOOK GOOD, THATS THE ONLY REASON
IF YOU LOSE ALL YOUR FAT AND STILL LOOK LIKE SHIT THEN WHATS THE POINT

>OH BUT YOU FEEL MUCH BETTER AND MORE LIGHT BLA BLA BLA
BUT YOU HAVE TO GIVE UP YOUR GLUTTONY
ONE OF THE MOST FUN THINGS IN LIFE IS EATING
FOR WHAT??? TO LOOK LIKE A DEFLATED GARBAGE BAG?

>>76369031
bro unironically get skin removal surgery.
i looked a lot like you do now except i have way less muscles and the difference is night and day. im glad my healthcare provider paid for arms+thighs+belly but i have to pay my tits out of my own pockets.
not only will it boost your confidence, it will also ease the pain of chaffing while walking / running.
keep up the good work man, really nice to see

>>76369327
I'm not stopping until 15%bf I need to prove to myself I have control over the situation. I've accepted that the actual "goal" is long-term maintenance at a healthy body weight. So I'm less attached to the specific number and more just never being overweight again.
Leaving obesity (which I've been my entire adult life) will be a nice change.
I'm hoping I'll be in a relatively good state by the end of next year. (Hence the name)
Considering I'm down from 570+ (only started fatty contest after losing 50) I already feel transformed for the better. I've gone from entirely useless to a fair bit less useless.
>>76368150
Frozen Plain Greek Yogurt mixed with flavored protein powder has been my jam lately.

>>76369296
if you're very serious about it, you can do it like this: add your oil to the pan before you cook the meat (or oil the pan by starting with rendering fat off the fat cap, or you can start the pan dry or with a bit of water in the case of bacon) and then when cooking is done use a rubber spatula to get all the oil out of the pan and measure how much is there, then subtract that from the total calories.

however, that's a fuckton of work, so unless you're cooking a shit ton for meal prep or you're extremely anal, just log the calories as they appear on the packet or cook some once, see how much is rendered and subtract that from your total, and then cook it to that level of doneness every time, but the latter also makes logging your calories a bit harder.

there's other solutions like using your leftover bacon grease to scramble eggs so you consume all the fat and don't have to worry about what's left behind and shit like that

you probably shouldn't be eating a shit ton of fatty meat anyways so at least you won't deal with this often

Salmon with asparagus

How long should I wait to weigh myself after starting? I started on the 5th this month, meant to wait 20ish days to see how I'm going
Btw, how possible is it to go from my current estimate of 100kg to 70-65 to christmas? I'll try my best to only break the diet I self imposed for my upcoming birthday, my country national holiday and the general western holidays (Chrismas and nye)

>>76369351
delicious. well chosen

>>76369321
It happens, you can minimize it though.

Collagen peptides, retinol cream, vitamin C, and more other anons can name off.

I used the 3 I listed, 100 pounds lost with only a tiny bit of loose skin around my triceps I can fill in.

If its not too bad, mini tuck aren't expensive either, less than a beater car these days.

>>76369021

>>76369358
I weigh myself twice in a week
Once for the fatty contest weigh in
and once half-way through the week to see if my diet is going well
20 days is alot because in that time you could gain weight and not be aware of it so you wont know that you need to adjust your diet

>>76369362
Well, my diet is just cico after all, I don't eat bread anymore and my last food is before 7pm, which is a fruit in case I feel like craving

>>76369031
Fatty contest name?

>>76369358
I weigh myself every day

>>76369296
I weight food that loses mass post cooking and food that gains mass (noodles, perogies, most things boiled) before cooking.

I prioritize consistency and I don't want to think a food is bad because I got a bad cut. I don't care about accuracy because it doesn't matter. If that duck breast was actually +200 calories than what I thought it was then the scale doesn't move. If the scale doesn't move then I cut 200 calories. It is TDEE is entirely about planting a marker and the moving away from it. Most people get their TDEE wrong anyways. So what, start with a number and then start cutting calories from there if it isn't working.

tl;dr meats post cooking

I get 93 lean ground beef for like $5 a pound at Sam's Club.

Get over it and weight yourself every day. Enter the data in an app and only look at the general trend, not individual data points.
>Btw, how possible is it to go from my current estimate of 100kg to 70-65 to christmas?
Calculate (7700 kcal/kg * kg to lose) / days to estimate the daily calorie deficit that you would need to achieve it. Looks like it would be something like 1500 kcal/day, which is a lot.

>>76369358
>100kg to 70-65
that's 66 pounds in a little over 4 months, or 15 pounds a month
it's possible but unrealistic. You'll have to do an extreme caloric deficit (800-1000 cals a day under your regular intake) or prolonged rotating fasts (not eating for 2-3 days at a time, refeeding 2-3 days, then not eating again)

just started cutting again. hate the feeling of not being able to get more muscular and strong but i have to lean down. never cutting or bulking again in my life. will go down to 12 percent bf and just maingain from there.

>>76369367
cico is incredibly unreliable if you dont actually know how much your CO is
and you don't unless you track it properly, just saying
the only way to have guaranteed success with cico with such infrequent weigh ins is having an unsustainably large deficit

- Mualle (vegetable stew with lentils, you get like 2 kgs of food and very few kcals)
- stir fry (endlessly variable and very much volume)
- Mediterranean vegetables with fish filet

For stir fry, fry the protein and veggies, then make a sauce that consists of 1-2 tsp starch, broth powder, cold water and mix. Maybe a tsp of sugar, but that's not needed. Mix the sauce and pour it over the veggies, then stir vigorously for 10-20s or so. Due to the starch it'll thicken and coat all veggies in that typical asian stir fry coating. To change things up consider adding ginger, garlic, onions sauce, oyster sauce, miso, curry paste, black pepper, orange juice+ketchup, or whatever else you fancy (individually not all at once).

I've still got a ways to go, I'm probably still like 25~30% bf or more, there's plenty of fat in those sagging sacks of skin. When I'm down to a normal weight and lost most of the fat I'll consider it. I was planning on keeping the weight off a year before I considered doing anything drastic like surgery though.
>>76369360
I've been taking collagen peptides and vitamin C pretty much since I started losing weight, I don't really think it did much to help my loose skin situation. Certainly makes my finger nails grow faster though, I have to clip them weekly now, before I used to clip them monthly. It might have helped somewhat but its not going to work miracles, I could tell early on I was going to have a lot of loose skin.
>>76369311
I do lift, 4 times a week since I started, but I don't think any amount of lifting will fix the loose skin, even if I packed 40lbs of muscle on I'd still have plenty of loose skin. I've made a lot of progress as a complete novice but its probably not very visible under all the fat and loose skin but my numbers have gone up a lot since I started and they're still going up, though much slower now than previously.

The O

Tell me your story /fat/ friends, how did you get fat? What went wrong? Why are you getting skinny? What are your hopes and dreams for the future?

Just got on Zepbound. Down from 270 to 255 in 7 days. I've been hydrating like a mofo and have lifted about 4 hours total this week. Hopefully it's not too much muscle loss.

Any tips for meals to make? I've had zero appetite and have mostly been living on 42g Fairlifes, Miso Soup packets, Duke's Shorty Sausages, and Laughing Cow cheese wedges with a few mini saltines to scoop it up. I'll normally grill up like 2-3lb of chicken on Sunday's and use those in things throughout the week, but even something that heavy makes me queasy.

>>76369505
You don't have any muscle to lose, so don't worry about it. Just abuse that shit and get the weight off. Then lift.

I always had too much appetite. But I had a mesmorphg phenotype and I played multiple sports and was very active as a kid. Graduated high school with a Chad physique from playing football and offseason workouts. But I could just put away the food. Like I remember going to BBQ and eating 5 hamburgers and being embarrassed when they were like “where did the burgers go”.

Then in college I got even more f/fit/. I dieted and lifted hard. Then once I graduated college it was just death by thousand cuts where I became less active and lost the motivation to fight my appetite day in and day out. From 25-31 I steadily gained weight every year with brief yo-yo dieting interruptions

The details of my life are quite inconsequential.... Very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low-grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a 15-year-old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize; he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes, he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament... My childhood was typical: summers in Rangoon... luge lessons... In the spring, we'd make meat helmets... When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds — pretty standard, really. At the age of 12, I received my first scribe. At the age of 14, a Zoroastrian named Vilmer ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum — it's breathtaking... I suggest you try it.

>>76369448
Yeah good skincare only gives you a slight reduction, but that's better than nothing.

It's also important how long you were big, how big, how fast you lost it, and genetics.

I do think it helped me enough to avoid needing a mini tuck, saving me thousands for maybe a few hundred dollars of supplements.

Also the collagen helps your joints recover, good for obese walkers.

You are doing amazing man, I hope you can get surgery. Maybe try a gofund me later, make a tiktok and write up your story to advertise it there.

I made a gofund me for my cats vet bills and people actually helped me, I was shocked.

I know it's cringe, social media sucks, but could help you later.

Was an athletic active kid doing gymnastics most of my youth but had free reign to eat whatever slop I wanted, puberty hit and with it severe endometriosis pain and existential crisis depression so computers and being a sperg weeb became my outlet. Fast forward to today after years of trying to lose weight and yo yoing and always saying to myself 'eh im fat but im not that fat' when indeed i was that fat and hated every picture of myself. 5ft 4 and my heaviest was 230lbs and dropped down to 200.3lbs today.

>And you're mentally still fat if you have "cheat days"
not him but how do i get rid of this? in my mind im still obese and not confident at all. when i ask people they tell me that i dont even look overweight but i still feel like it

>>76368877
Having that reaction to food will help you on becoming a normal healthy person. An obese piece of shit would stuff themselves near puking status and enjoy every second of it no matter how shit the food was.

I started logging after 6 mo of keto, 248 is actually on the extreme end of light for my adult life.
Obviously my weight during covid was higher than average but I think that applies to a lot of us.
I am happy with my progress so far, I hope to be under 240 this year, which would be an ATL the same year we had our first baby. I would consider that a win.

>>76369872
>mentally fat
nice cope
I'm on a cut, I'm here losing weight because I want to get toned not because I'm a lardass like you

>>76369947
checking the archives he was at almost 300 at his fattest so
granted he's been trying to lose weight on 4chan for half a decade

>>76369947
I am not mad at myself for struggling, I am happy with myself for the weight I am, the habits Ive made and the habits Ive broken
Ive beat both high blood pressure and NAFLD and am spitting distance from my ATL.

>>76369980
>it is ok that i;m a failure because of uhhhhh reasons

no better feeling than hitting a low on the scale, assuming you are going to rebound a little and come up heavier the next day, but instead you wake up to another low

>>76369986
Wanna make a bet? What do you think I will weigh 12/31/2025?

Switching from daily weighing to weekly weighing was very helpful for me. The emotional roller coaster of fluctuations in water weight and shit is not worth it and ultimately makes weight loss harder.

>>76370046
I've noticed the same thing

>>76370046
>be 250 pounds
>expect to lose 2 pounds
>weigh in
>body decided to do a little trolling
>shows you that you gained weight instead
>can't confirm if it's a stall or if it's body actually trolling until the next week
No thanks

Summer is the worst season

>>76370065
Weightloss is a long term project, weekly weigh ins put you in that mindset.

>>76369346
What was the recovery like? I am worried its going to be brutal. Im down 130lbs. My triceps and thighs are already looking saggy. My belly will get worse as I get closer to a healthy weight

Focus on making lifestyle changes, not on being x weight on y day. If you try to be this weight by rhe holidays, you will undershoot your target, feel like you've failed, and then stop dieting.

Years of being overweight has ruined my body. I need to stretch for like an hour a day to just walk without pain.

>>76369505
Blending a frozen banana and a scoop of protein powder got me through my early weeks. Its easy to digest and nutritionally decent. As youre on the meds longer you'll be able to eat more normally

>>76369341
Nah
I remember being 400 lbs
Unable to walk around for a couple minutes without being sweaty and out of breath was hell
Not being able to fly without extreme anxiety and buying an extra seat
Being constantly ashamed to be seen

Horrible-looking (out of clothes) and healthy and able is way better than horrible-looking (all the time) and barely able to live

Sure it fucking sucks compared to what could've been if you never did it to yourself but there's no point in making that comparison because its not an option, it just keeps you stuck and coping in the objectively worse existence

If scale doesn't go down tomorrow I'm going to est 3 large pizzas

>>76369197
Very similar to you, my man
I've been watching your similar progress in fatty Contest
The loose skin and titties are fucking me up too
But it's better than staying how I was
Also spent 14 years being a shut-in using apathy and food to cope
Came out of it to start fixing my body and now I'm trying to progress other shit like getting into talking to women and starting to claw my way back into employment and a career. And trying to stave off mental collapse from the weird brain shit that peeling back a decade+ of apathy causes.
Goddamn is it hard
But you just gotta keep momentum
Which unfortunately I'm struggling with as I've been stalled for two months
Lifting and cardio continues strong but I fucked up by reintroducing alcohol to cope with the mental shit that cropped up
Would not recommend

T. Big Frigate

PS looking back at this pic the titties are a bit more deflated now despite only being 2 lbs lighter
Good to realize theyre still decreasing at least, gotta recommit to the deficit so I can get there

>>76369853
yeah but that's my point, my brain is unhijacked even on 12.5mg/wk of tirz. I am as hungry as ever and I still think about food nonstop. why the fuck does it not work on me when like >>76369819 points out even braindead roasties just magically stop thinking about food after their first shot. And I got this shit from Tracy pre-shutdown so unless the hundreds of thousands of other roidbros who ordered from the same source are injecting bunkum, I'm pretty sure it's legit tirz. I put the fork down but five minutes later I pick it back up because I'm obsessed with food every second of the fucking day and nobody has that much willpower to resist 24/7. I'm just tired of funneling all my mental energy towards this one sisyphean task for years and years, never making durable progress, and now insult to injury every fucking randoid normoid fatty retard who never tried in their life gets a free ride to slimville while I'm stuck behind shooting maximum dosages of this miracle weight loss drug and it does shit and fuck for me. I still get the fucking sides though. gas. lightheaded. insomnia.

>>76370202
Get over it Lmao

>>76370202
Peptides are fragile. If you didn’t refrigerate it that can mess it up or if they got super hot in the shipping process. That’s if they were ever real to begin with. I kind of doubt you are just immune to GLPs. Yours must be fucked or you have psychological issues making you still eat like I could see a type of OCD making a person still eat with no appetite. Same kind of OCD produces the kind of alcoholics who will drink mouth wash

>>76370074
Man boobs

>>76370272
Sir, you are in man boobs general

>>76370074
I am enjoying it this year. Being shirtless doesn't disgust me (as much), and less fat means it's cooler.

>>76370272
Actually I wear a t shirt when swimming which makes it impossible for anyone to notice I am fat or have man boobs

>>76370300
Sorry to tell you, but the T-shirt itself tells everyone you're fat

>>76370090
unless daily fluctuations give you anxiety it's best to weigh daily and take the average

>>76370093
aside from money its my biggest worry, apparently the recovery is really painful and takes weeks (can depend on severity of excess skin obv)

>>76370300
>Actually I wear a t shirt when swimming which makes it impossible for anyone to notice I am fat or have man boobs

Im starting to doubt our ability to measure calories

>>76367794 (OP)
has eating slower helped any of ya'll?

>>76370300
you're likely wearing an oversized t which makes it very obv you're fat and in certain positions your man boobs will be visible no matter what

yeah
I think chopsticks are the real reason asians are so thin.

>>76370202
Are you sure that you are actually hungry, and it isn't only in your head?

>>76370322
how do you know it's not water weight?

>>76370202
you need to break your food addiction
start fasting
start with 2 hour fasts if necessary
build up to a 7 day one
and beyond

>>76369341
I don't want my arteries to look like this when I'm older

>>76370322
Fiber makes you retain water, you're losing fat still.

Considering fiber makes you feel more full, it's worth it to hold some temporary water weight.

how do I make myself anorexic?

For your skin maybe. God i love being all oiled up from the neck and just soaking up the moisture.

>>76367794 (OP)
would it be better to try and get into walking or cycling to start doing exercise? I did a bit of walking this week (~~11km a day for two days then weather got pretty bad) but I also have a velodrome nearby that I could ride for a while in.

>>76368579
I mean my gym is free through my job, I live in a very very hilly area, and I got rid of my car to
1. Save a shit ton of money. No more car payment, no insurance, no gas bill, no inspection, no registration or tags, no tires to change, no random stupid expensive repairs, no stupid speeding/parking tickets.
2. Get a ton more activity in. Everything i NEED is within 5 miles of me, I can walk or ride my bike to work just fine, walk to the grocery store and i can only buy what I can carry home. If I want to go to the park, and café, go have an ice cream downtown, I have to walk there up and down the hills and carrying all my water i need in my backpack.

>>76368589
Hmm... weird... how long have you been at this?

>>76368644
I mean im at a point where Ive been sober just shy of 9 months, before that date i had 6 months, before that date I had 4nonths. The last two slips are nowhere near as bad either, the alcoholics equivalent of buying a 6 pack of beer and getting drunk VS the old way that was downing multiple liquor bottles a night. Still a slip but damn its gotten so much better. I just like the therapy work of it. Really getting to know myself and decide who and how I want to be.

>>76369275
Its not about the hole you dig, its the effort you make to crawl out.

>>76369341
Nobody even knows I have loose skin in my clothes. Its gotten much better over time.

>>76369361
Fatass

>>76370897
Might as well do both if they're available to you. Muscles develop better when the exercises are changed regularly

>>76369712
You can make it. You're still pretty overweight, but trust me after 150 so many of those symptoms will be manageable and you will feel much better. Just dont stop.

>>76369502
At first, I got fat because I was depressed and food was one of the few things I could enjoy in life. Also I am autistic with social anxiety and sensory issues so I never felt the need to go outside and do things so I just stayed inside on my computer all day. I was one of the weakest guys by a large margin in my high school gym class. I thought about getting fit but I also had twenty other things on my mind at the time. Then during college I just thought it would be cool if I got fit. Finally I said fuck it and I started off with some basic calorie counting. Then I got really into it and read up on all of the /fit/ info and lost 45lbs. I felt better than ever, but college classes got worse and then covid happened and everything spiraled downward. I lost track of my routine, my college dreams fell apart, and regained most of my weight. It took me a few years to find myself again and recover from depression afterwards. Then I slowly started dipping my weight back down again based on what I learned while dieting. Then I started seeing a doctor and learned how badly my heart health has gotten from that period so I decided to commit back to dieting. My goal now is to return back to my previous record low and continue onward to finish what I started.
