how did you get fat?

I destroy my routines for whatever big liveservice slop is fresh because that's the only fun time to play vidya

>>76503755 (OP)
I never did

I got heavier at some point to explore the benefits of being heavier. After about 10 years of eating big and lifting I determined there was no benefit whatsoever only downsides. At my peak I was 6'2 240. I stayed at around 200-210 for a few years before settling on leanmode where I look and feel better and it's not even close. Being heavy is pants on head retarded, for me anyway. Some fatasses seem genuinely happier like that

It began with eating the same I did when I was working out but slowly starting to work out less and less bcs of work, gf, uni and irl in general. Before you know it I wasn't working out at all bccs no time and portions were steadily increasing with time. It took 2 years of complete inactivity to start looking fat tho

195lbs is the heaviest someone is supposed to be at 6'2, so it makes sense you'd feel better below 200

>>76503755 (OP)
kids and work
but I'm just working on eating less and finally getting back into the gym.
using macrofactor just to remind me to stop mindlessly eating and I've lost 5 lbs in the past week. Down from 182 to 177.

Drank 12 beers a night for like 5 years and didnt exercise.

at ~25 when I lived by myself and I got my first fully WFH job, I started ordering take out for almost every meal on top of drinking plenty of soda + energy drinks. the convenience of it and the fact that there was no one to impose structure on me contributed to it. I got up to 250 lbs in like a year, now I'm back down to 180, but I know first hand how fast it happens. I deleted skip and Uber, never installing that garbage again.

Always have been.

>>76503803
yeah well it's hard to take those things seriously when for a period of time everybody thought eating 10 big macs a day and heavy lifting will turn you into arnold. in hindsight the height:bw charts are actually pretty accurate

Ate fast food every single day, often would eat sweets and drink soda too. Despite eating 3000+ calories a day I never weighed more than 200lbs (at 5’11”) so I should have been WAY fatter.

Took me a long time to see the cycle. Even nowadays in my 40s, struggle with weight. When I drop 30 lbs through diet and exercise, all it takes is one woman even a friend to say i look good and I put the weight back on.
Fucking sucks.

Got a desk job
Drank a lot to cope

On the bright side, I've gotten pretty good at home cooking, though it was cause of the money sunk into takeout that changed my habit there

It also didn't help having my mom scowl at me every time I "blow her off" I go running or hit the gym, like I'm doing all of this to remind her how much of a fat cow she is. By the book narcissist, can't win if she doesn't get some of the glory. She's out of the picture now, but I lost the discipline while trying to get by myself. I have been taking the slow path back to former glory and I'm not gonna lie, it's way harder doing this for myself versus when I had someone to do in spite of. But I refuse to let her have any part, whether in person or in thought, in my life again. I'll be strong again, I'll run and be active outdoors again, but she'll stay out of my life forever.

Quit my job after 6 months that I thought was going to be my career. Got depressed over the whole thing and gained 30 lbs. Now I regret quitting, but I’m not getting that fat ever again.

I'm at a loss; Maybe my age/metabolism is catching up with me?
6'3, 28 years old. I haven't changed my workout routine much at all and still eat basically the same as always, yet in 2 years I've put on 20 pounds. The 3 years before that 10. I just weighed myself this morning and found that despite the last month of trying to eat healthier and less while working out more, I've gained 2 pounds. Idk what to do at this point. (244 now)
I've got damned stretch marks I've put this weight on so fast and no clue as to why.

>>76503755 (OP)
I ate more to build muscle then stopped lifting. Ironically I am still under what my goal weight would be if I kept lifting. I'm just much fatter than I should be.

>>76503755 (OP)
Suffered from terrible IBS and heartburn from 18 to 28. Anything and everything I ate ruined my day. Finally went to the doc and he put me on something that 100% resolved both issues.

Went on a mission to eat anything and everything that previously made my life hell. Good times.

I gained 100+ lbs in a year due to trauma and stress. I've lost all of it now but my body is ruined with loose skin.

By listening to online people on misc telling me I needed to "bulk" without telling me I should be on roids before doing this because the drugs turn all the calories into muscle.

>>76503915
Correct. Steroids warped our idea of what can be obtained naturally. After about 4-5 years of lifting you're basically at your natty peak.

I got in a relationship and got comfortable, thats it. Gained like 80lbs in 3 years. She has stayed the same and treats me just as well so its really really hard to find that motivation to lose weight again but I know I have to for my health, we're both still young so the negative effects havent hit me as hard. Never let yourselves become the frog in the pot bros

My mom pulled a lot of shit and let me in a really bad spot in life. I cut contact and worked through a lot of reasoning behind it, then when she was dying I "mended' things. Later that spite crept back because no matter how fucked she was from shit happening in her life, I am her son and she made those decisions to screw me over instead of being a good parent. Spite can still be there if you give it a reason.

>>76503755 (OP)
it can happen when you stop caring about physique and naturally tend to overeat. It's not a quick process maybe just a few hundred extra calories a week over couple years, then one day you notice your shirts don't fit

At final semester in uni I was literally feed myself with enegy drink, coffee, fast food and alcohol.
When I get aware of it I was already 98 kg instead of my usual 76-82. I dropped the dinner (gradually ofc) and came back to 85 in 3 months. I never heard about intermittent fasting before, and even later raliized that was it.

Got on food stamps and got a car. Then just stopped caring.

Unpopular opinion: discipline is overrated.
Everything is better than nothing. If you going to the gym occasionally still better than not going at all.
I also struggle with consistency, so I plan to workout 3 times a week. Usually it get just 2 or even 1, but that's still one times a week. I know this so my programn is not splitted but do the same full body workout all the time.

>>76505806
Somthing is always better than nothing, but dont act surprised when you dont get the results you want when you know full well where you're lacking

>>76505814
100% agree, but visible process no matter how small is a huge boost to keep going to many people. Too many guys are in the "all or nothing" mentality and very few have the stability of life/mind/willpower to keep on track, that's why a lot of people who starts dropping sessions just give up entirely.
More is better but less is still good.

relationships. The honeymoon phase followed by the comfort phase is brutal. I just want to go out to dinner and drinks, get drunk and fuck multiple times a week in a new relationship. Its a somewhat necessary phase but the mistake is getting comfortable once the honeymoon is over.

I proposed to this girl and have been back in full force and more locked in than ever now though, and am rapidly realizing as my body becomes attractive again why it is still worth it to be fit in a relationship. Gf gets more submissive, horny, and inclined to involve other women in the bedroom (almost entirely unprovoked) the closer I get to being jacked again. By the time I have a 6 pack again I will probably have a harem. Im realizing all the stereotypes about lousy sexless marriages and cunt wives are because the husband isn't leading the marriage by example by being fat and making sure his wife knows other women fawn for him. (most) Women are capable of being such great life partners who will give everything to and worship their husband if they have a man that knows how to lead the relationship by example and make them feel seen and heard otherwise, or in other words fulfilled emotionally and physically. They (usually) only become gold digging whores when their men fail them. Money is our innate desire, not theirs.

proud of you pops. Become the superhero your kids see you as. Also use the stat-buff you get in the gym from having kids to imagine defending your family from a wild animal or attacker because as a younger childless guy I envy that my friends with kids get to imagine that while lifting weights. Sometimes I imagine im defending my gf but if im mad at her its not the same because id just let the bear eat her

How fit were you before / when you two met? My fiance is a sweet girl and didn't suddenly become a bitch when I gained the exact same amount of weight as you but I was an absolute unit when we met and I can tell you with utmost certainty that if im fat I'm not getting as many nor anywhere near as eager-to-please kind of BJ's as when I'm jacked. Also I'm gonna have to be a lot more sensitive and patient whereas if i'm jacked I can pretty much get away with anything. The only downside really at all is that she's gonna be jealous and self conscious about 1000 times more often

Over indulging in everything except exercise

Lost my mom, stopped caring. Wasn't until I started feeling joint pain, difficulty waking up, and growing apathy decided to make a change.

>>76506117
I wasn't that /fit/ kinda chubby when we met actually but def 80 lbs lighter. Yeah she's still really nice to but sex has gone down at least partially due to a reduction in my libido from getting fat. I gotta fix it, I want the freakiness back

Fat parents fed me fat food.
Still feel wrong if I don't eat everything on the plate.
Working on losing weight in my 30th year. It will take me at least another year to potentially reduce down to a reasonable size.

>>76506188
it'll change your perspective seeing both sides so closely from the exact same person. I don't care how nice and down to earth a woman seems, humans are always shallow to some extent. Plus being in the power position in general as the attractive partner makes the relationship so much more enjoyable and women are much more likely to enjoy being the one that has to submit throughout a relationship in those vague, unconscious ways - the ways that one wouldn't even notice until reflecting on it. Much more so would she enjoy it than most men would. You'll both be more satisfied and I promise you'll notice what I'm talking about as you get more conventionally attractive.

You'll have an everyday interaction one day along your progress with an unexpected result and realize what it equates to. Most of it isn't very apparent, its unconscious, natural behaviors - reactions, tendencies etc. on both ends but it makes a huge difference as they all add up to an overall result. Its beyond just the vibe in the bedroom. A fit male partner can make a relationship much more satisfying and successful.

family made me fat. not just any one person, but they all did it. had an aunt who wouldn't let me leave the table until my plate was clean. had grandparents who constantly pushed seconds and thirds on me, and in general was taught to revel in the masturbatory act of consumption. food is pleasure, consumption is love or discipline. on top of this, food quality was low. my own mother used to buy me gas station burritos and hot dogs and a huge 40z soda to gulp it down. my father is no better, still to this day thinks hotdogs, vienna sausages, potted meat, and other low quality trash are a staple foods.

stupid retarded archaic nonsense. god I hate old people. it stems from a lack of education more than anything else. it also goes to show that not only black people have what is known as "soul food" everyone has some iteration of it even if it isn't fried chicken and chitlins or whatever.

At least that extra weight made it easier to make strength gains i think. Benched 315 for 2 reps and deadlifted 5 plates the first time. squatting 135 makes me want to scream i think i need more physical thearpy.


The upside? i service connected all of this to the national gaurd so after my suicide attempt so I retired at 26 years old getting 3800 every month. Not a ton, but i had no significant debt (3k in student loans for a car repair)

I want to go to college again in the spring. a little older but i look young enough I think. After my degree I will work to live and invest my 3800 every month into the smp to give to my children in a living trust.

Count calories. The apps have gotten really good and can do cool shit with AI now. The first time I let one of these apps count my calories from takeout from a picture was the last time I ordered takeout.
Meal prep/plan. Plan out your calories before you get home. Have something that tastes good ready when you get home. Beef and Rice, pulled chicken, chili, whatever, as long as you like it and it’s ready. It can even be a little over your daily calorie budget while you acclimate to the new habit, it’ll still be better for you than takeout.

I was born fat. My parents were fat. I grew up eating garbage like most kids but I ate more and I stored fat. Played sports but my metabolism didn't keep up. I drank juice and soda.
And then after sports I just got really gluttonous. And then I added beer. Ate tons of burgers and pizza and pasta and drank lots of beer and whiskey. For years.

It wasn't until I got my carbs in check that I finally was able to eat a normal amount and maintain a healthy weight.
Fat is the way to eat to be thin.

Oh man, I've neem off it for so long now... I think it was Oxybutynin. I took it twice daily, morning and evening, with food. I remember the doc telling me not to take it on an empty stomach or with booze because it was a muscle relaxer of sorts and could make me high af. The couple times I skipped brekky I can remember sitting meetings completed stoned out of my mind.

Meds worked like a charm though. Stopped taking it after I got my diet under control and learned I was lactose intolerant. Cutting out milk and fried foods and drinking plenty of water did the trick.

Once you realize that no amount of physical effort will ever make anyone like you more for it and that you'll be in the dirt in a few decades regardless of if you eat that deep fried piece of meat or not, it becomes kinda hard to justify why you should say no.

Eating too much too often, because I was hungry (chronically).
>>76512360
And what did you do that's better?

>>76503773
Being so fat is probably actually killing me, but it feels much better. It makes me sleepier which helps counteract my hatred of evil people. Working out doesn't help at all, in fact, it intensifies my hatred and gives me terrible headaches. I am "superior" IQ though so probably most people don't share this problem.

Have either of you considered that being le epic nihilist because you couldn't achieve your purpose in life of making people like you, or fucking randoms, are both equally pathetic?
Genuinely and without irony please do some cognitive exercises and stop being insecure narcissists. Your life is not all about "finding acceptance" like some hysterical faggot or "getting laid" like some dumb beast. Your life isn't even all about you.

I never did, when you're physically active and don't drink calories (like sugary pop), it's extremely hard to get fat. Like you would have to consistently earth north of 3500 calories every single day for years.

Idiot doctor put me on Lithium for migraines (didn't help at all). Up until that point in life, my metabolism was super high, could eat anything and not gain weight.

After starting the Lithium, I gained 40 pounds of fat in two weeks. Got crazy permanent stretch marks under arms and on thighs.

Stopped the Lithium after two weeks. Metabolism was permanently wrecked for the rest of my life. Have to maintain a strict diet just to maintain 20% body fat.

Fuck doctors.

I always thought I was just naturally skinny but then I went from manual labour to a desk job and after a year got real fat, apparently hours of manual labour everyday is good exercise. never grew the discipline to have a good exercise routine outside of work and was used to eating and drinking a lot

>>76503755 (OP)
For me, it's overeating.

Everybody because its fun? Losing weight = more women want to bang you = more fun. Its not hard logic.

i have 2 brothers and one of them is the bitter type. also he becomes more of an SJW as he gets later and later in life without actually accomplishing anything. just have a brother like that is kind of bullshit but it's not that bad. i feel like having a parent like that would be 10 times worse.

i'm just a lonely /fit/ autist, but I have heard multiple /fit/ anons say that the femininity of their girlfriend always matched their masculinity as a man. is this really true, and what causes it? also, what specific things do you mean? does the paint her nails more and shit like that?

>>76504780
if she's genuinely a good girl, give her the reward she really wants - a super-jacked man that can protect her.

an another anon said, meal prep. then you notice a boundary in your brain between a "regular" meal and an "out-of-bounds" meal. this is a boundary I only noticed on my brain once I got disciplined. that boundary is supposed to be there.

Good question. I'm BMI 15.7, and going 16 hours without food causes a severe downregulation of my metabolism in which heart rate drops into the low 30's along with core temperature. By all accounts I should be skin and bones. But I still got a pouchy gut - as well bat wings; like a fat chick wearing a bra, these spill out over my Polar H10 chest strap, which I use for my anorexia ritual of leaning into my shallow torpor.

Get your thyroid tested as you might have hypothyroidism. Around that age I was the opposite of you where I inexplicably lost a ton of weight and I had hyperthyroidism.

Become really conscious with your spending (even if you aren't a poorfag)
Everything that you spend money on should be intentional and helpful to you in some way, rather than eating and shidding like an animal.

Why do americans take diet pills?
Just stop eating. It's that fucking easy. Don't give yourself the shits.

>>76518054
Not American, actually.

>>76518064
Very surprising, seeing how 90% of those diet pills that make you shit yourself are sold in the US.
Why are you doing this to yourself? Why not just eat less food?

>>76503755 (OP)
I got fat because my mom grew up in a family with 7 kids, and that's how she learned to cook. I stayed fat because I got used to eating mass quantities of food and getting nearly crippled left me an anxious, comfort seeking doughboy. Still staying fit through manual labor, but the brain fuckery that comes every time I change what I eat is a bastard.

>>76518073
I'm eating less when I can but still go through bouts of stress eating. At least I'm not on any mood meds anymore.

>>76518106
>At least I'm not on mood meds anymore

This isn't better. You don't need pills to lose weight. Stop being a retard.

You're right, I don't shit my bed. And I'm still losing weight.

>>76503755 (OP)
I eat the amount of food that makes me feel full and suddenly I gain weight.
If I eat the amount that makes me lose weight I am in constant hungry pain.

>>76518183
Yes. That's what happens when you are fat. Your stomach is streched out and bigger than it should be, so it takes longer for you to feel full.
It'll shrink back to a normal-sized stomach after a few weeks of dieting.

Only fat people say this.

>>76518229
ok then im skinny per se

I havent followed these threads. But take the mindfulpill bros. Read How To Eat by Thich Nhat Hanh.

My breakfast was 150g chickpeas and 150g brown rice with a tablespoon of ground flaxseed, and salt. I chewed it quite thoroughly, I sat and considered the chain of causality that lead to these perfect jewels of nutrition being offered to me as a gift.

Every in breath, I considered golden, as I was fully aware I may not live to experience the next out breath. I suppose It took me 40 minutes to eat a bowl of rice and chickpeas. It was really quite an experience. My kitchen was perfectly quiet of any man-made noise, only robins calling over their territory, and the first rains we've had in nearly a month.

I think that veganism, Buddhism, mindfulness, and right view are exceptional tools to help us on our journeys to metabolic health!

Good luck bros, hopefully the day is as fulfilling for you as for me.

I put on about a stone of weight after getting put on some new anti depressants after already having a strong hide now I look like Homer Simpson. also because I'm an alcoholic I don't drink strong booze any more cos I'm liable to drink all of it so I just drink shit loads of weak beer instead now which obviously doesn't help.

>>76518443
tbf to those anons, I have the same issue where being in a relationship has put me entirely off of being in another one. it gets me grief irl too but I'd rather just save up for a small house and a dog than have someone else around.

Is this cope sneed and excuse thread?

>>76503755 (OP)
I was always a skinny person 5'10 145lbs. Started lifting and gained about 30lbs of muscle and took that as I can eat everything I want in order to bulk so I can get bigger. 8 years have gone by and now and im not even that big even tho I've been going to the gym regularly 4+ days a week. I now realise that in order to look big you have to take roids or ear incredibly well and no drinking. Now Im just fat. 195lbs

>>76518443
I agree with them

Having zero clue about fitness knowledge and lack of self-awareness look-wise, and I think these two are the biggest factors for most people. I assure you for men unless you hit around 15% body fat, your REAL life hasn't even begun. Period. You will see someone you have never seen or imagined before in front of your mirror and it is a positively world-shaking experience I assure you. Isn't it a terrible thing that you are not being at your best physical mode or worse, can even die without seeing it?

>>76503755 (OP)
im not fat, i just went on a bulk the wrong way. i fell for the dirty bulk meme because I saw it worked for Sam sulek

Many such cases. Fitness influencers are truly a cancer to your mind

I ate too much food

Mom thought food=love, and I didn't know any better. Everyone in my family was big too, so I thought that's just how I was going to be (grew up pre-internet so outside information was limited at best). School was no help either, pushing their food pyramid bullshit and gym teachers using exercise as punishment. I lost the weight as an adult, and I've kept the majority of it off after losing it but I still yo-yo and I'll probably struggle with it forever desu.

>>76503755 (OP)
I already ate a lot as a young child, but had dad who did a lot of sports with me so I was slightly overweight, but then they divorced when I was 7yo, I ended up with single mom who didn't do any sports with me and kept feeding me sweets, then she also married some old dude who kept making me huge dinners, I guess because he was lonely and wanted to make someone happy, I quickly became obese and then 5-6 years later morbidly obese
