>Who is /fat/ for?
For famous feasters 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.
Join our Fatty Contest: https://www.fattycontest.com/

>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.

it's the kind of feeling where you are inbetween where it's not coming out yet.

>>76576815
Nah it was like over 2 hours ago. I don't know why I ate it, I thought because it was sealed it would be okay

so hungry...

I was able to shit today for the first time in 5 days and there was some blood in it thanks ozempic

>>76576908
Yikes. I'm doing it the right way and I've been just squeezing out little turds once or twice a day. It's weird not dropping a massive junkfood log every two or three days

The only thing I did over the summer was lose 35 pounds. That's it. Did I waste the time I had?
It's worth noting that I was in hellish misery the entire time due to many regrets that happened before summer. So not only was I under the stress of a very difficult caloric deficit, but my emotions and inner monologue were intensely angry and self-destructive.
I look back with some regret at not having been more productive, yet I also feel like I should be satisfied with how I did considering how terrible my place in life actually is right now.

Starting to get towards my goal weight. Any advice on switching from pure weight loss to building muscle while losing fat? Should I be aiming for total average intake around my TDEE and protein maxing or run a slight deficit or excess?

>>76577050
If you're fat run a deficit and just lift. Get enough protein to hang onto what muscle you have and hopefully build some
Losing weight is priority one.

How do I get rid of the stubborn belly fat below my belly button? I'm losing mass everywhere else, yet the bloat there seems to be getting bigger!

>>76577050
if your goal weight is still obese/high bf% then keep eating below your TDEE is the ideal move. how long have you been doing this? you don't have to pick between losing fat and gaining muscle until you are legit in shape, so realistically speaking 3 years after you started losing weight

Any advice on how to deal with an oblivious partner?

It is not my husband is unsupportive, but he wants to eat junk all the time. Every single friend hangout involves eating pizza or burgers and if I say that I don't want to go with him he would rather stay home, but then will complain that he's not seeing his friends enough.

He's much taller than I am and works and active job, even though he also put some weight on since we got married it is practically invisible.

I am losing my mind. I gained 25kg since I married him. I managed to find a job that got me living at home only half of the time (I was a live in nanny half the week) and effortlessly lost 15kg of that weight. This year I had to quit and the scale is already going up.

I am seriously at my limit. Any advice?

>>76576942
I made this a second time, it's very good.

are you a foid?

>>76577109
Sounds good. I've been around -1000kcal which has been working well for me, still want to lose another 16-39 lbs.
>>76577135
Healthy weight, I think a BMI of around 21-23 is probably ideal. I started about 6 months ago and have lost 85 lbs. with CICO and cardio, but ended up dropping off strength building and just focused on running longer and faster.

10 miles at 406lbs. I may be a hamplanet, but never let it be said I'm lazy.

>>76577161
well first it's worth asking if you've actually explained to him why it bothers you and why you don't want to go with him. Tell him you don't like the food and you're on a diet, don't just expect him to guess that's the reason why.

second, you also have other options
>go with him and don't eat
>go with him, don't eat, and then ask him to take you to a healthy spot later
>try and get the "healthiest" option at these places - I always like chicken wings, they're high in protein and relatively low in fat / carbs compared to other shit, and every american restaurant has them (make sure to get him to pay for it too)

It is the season of the great cut.

40 lbs. is easily doable. 80 lbs. is going to be hard as fuck and potentially dangerous unless you see a nutritionist/dietician. I'd set your stretch goal at like 60. Good luck, though!

I have talked to him about it several times. He knows I have a certain goal to get breast reduction surgery. He just seems to forget.

I got a non stick pan, he will still fry my eggs with oil. I tell him how to make my coffee sugar free from now on and he surprises me with coffee in bed and it has sugar, hell sometimes it is sweeter than what I used to drink before.

If I go out with his friends and choose not to eat or have something healthier they comment on it.

I just don't know how to approach the subject firmly enough and not start a fight at the same time.

I'm close to thinking he's sabotaging me at this point.

Cook your own food if you don't like what he's making for you. If it's good, make some for him, too.
>If I go out with his friends and choose not to eat or have something healthier they comment on it.
Either stop caring about what his friends think or politely tell them to fuck off. You could try pushing back on it, too, which might work unless they're basically a pack of bogans or you're not particularly funny, but that's high risk high reward. Alternatively, if you don't like his friends, just don't go. He should be mature enough to handle his wife not wanting to go everywhere with him.

Why don't you ever see keto social media people eating pork? Instead of eating a nice porkchop they eat steak and drink butter. Are they all jews?

why would you? pork is shit. It's bland, flavorless, and for the effort you could put in to make it taste good steak will taste 100x better. I only eat pork when it's easy to cook and already pre seasoned like sausages, I never bother to season that shit myself.

It's simple

Thats impressive, I cant even do that at 180lbs, im still stuck trying to improve my endurance enough to run more than a minute at a time and by the time I'm done with 5 miles I'm exhausted. 10 mi, fucking running, as a 400lb mega fat? Goddamn anon you have my respect.

I can spend literally all day walking, but moving my pace up to a jog leaves me fighting for my life after like 2-3 minutes

>>76577613
Much better. I pan fried the chicken until it was golden, and also let the sauce reduce a bit more. It's really easy to hit my protein goal with this.

Interval training is key when you're completely deconditioned. Try to start off with like 1 minute of running and 90 seconds of walking x8, then move up to 2 minutes of running, and keep snowballing from there. C25K is a decent way to do it if you want something more structured.

>>76577684
Not if the only thing you changed was not drinking. If you specifically cut or were increasing weights or reps by a lot then maybe if you also hit the genetic jackpot you could go from >>76577661 to >>76577667 in just 40 days.

27 year male here. I’ve dropped 30 pounds in the last 7 months from just cutting out soda, alcohol, sweets, and junk food. I’m currently sitting at 5’6” 135lbs, and wanting to lose another 5-10 so I can get rid of the lasts little bit of belly fat. I take a multivitamin, and fish oil every morning. I do a single set of pushups, pull-ups, squats, and a plank everyday, along with a set here and there of pull-ups/pushups. Anything I can do to speed it up, and how do I maintain once I reach my goal? I don’t ever want to gain weight again. My highest was 165, and I usually maintained between 115-130 until a psycho ex convinced me to take Jew meds. I’m off everything now except 10mg adderal ER once in the morning with my vitamins. Grew up in a hoarder house and was fed slop and could eat whatever whenever I wanted so to get to where I am now has been one hell of a journey. I don’t drink coffee, just water with the occasional electrolytes. Doing my best to stay thin despite my gf being southern and cooking for an army every week. God help me bros.

Just hit 80lbs down.
I have gained some muscle, lost a bunch of fat, and feeling great. Still have a good bit of work to do, though. More motivated than ever now - I can see and feel the progress and just started dating this twunk bro I'm super jealous of and want to lose my last bit of fat, lol

My end goal has always been 189lbs. The only reason for that is because of the BMI - at 6'1", that would place me at "normal weight." I know that BMI is not gospel or the end all be all, but still.

I have a lot of loose skin and flab under my waistband. Might consider surgery. Not sure. We'll see.

Bro, just eat a lb of pan fried chicken plus all the low calorie low starch vegetables you want once a day. It's 1000 calories a day and it's by far the quickest and easiest way to lose weight. You legit lose weight faster than fasting because even fasting anons take breaks over the long term.

>>76578665
is a Plateau caused by your body simply not fully digesting your meals for days on end, giving the impression that your weight has stagnated?

Is the plateau in the room with us right now?

>>76578732
No one really knows the exact biological mechanism, but its been widely observed and documented.

Pic related is one common explanation, though its mostly debunked, your fat cells can't literally fill with water, though water might be retained somewhere else in your body. Truth is we don't know why despite being an a deficit people's weight can plateau for weeks on end only to suddenly catch up to where they were supposed to be over the course of a few days, but it happens.

not really a recipe but caramelized onion is pretty good, you can add it to alot of stuff and it has a good taste.
cook the onion in a pan on the lowest heat setting with a tiny bit of oil on the pan, and a little salt on the onion, you dont have to stir it for the first hour, but after hour 1, stir it every 10 minutes. after the second hour it should be done
lowest heat setting is important btw.

Thanks anon, I'm aware of caramelized onions but I suppose I should make them as a topping more often.
If you add water to the pan at first to cook the onion down, then let it evaporate and then fry it, you can cut the time down by a lot by the way, give it a try sometime.

Reached the point where belts are no longer keeping my pants in place. Feels good man.

Will have to buy new pants and belts soon.

>>76579320
WOOOOOO

welp bros I ate the hamburger and the ice cream yesterday for the family labor day BBQ get together. It was my first day of fucking up in over 20 days. I gained 3 pounds on the scale which is pretty fucking bad. But on the bright side I hit PRs in the gym and I assume most of this is water that will melt off over the next few days. Life is still good and I am still losing weight. No time for despair

>>76579358
Just remember that all that weight is a water weight.
Don't get yourself down. You didn't mess up. You indulged on a special day.
Just get back on the horse and keep riding to the goal line.

>>76579176
I like miso soup. A tub of miso paste lasts forever, and you can use it as seasoning too.

It is not very filling, but it gets me enough salt in the morning to not have headaches.

Having one onion and one tomato for lunch or breakfast sounds super sad, but If you sautee them on a liiiitle bit of olive oil, add miso and water it turns into a pretty okay soup.

>>76579320
Congrats man, keep those pants and belt, its a good marker for how far you've come.

The belt I was wearing when I started can make a second complete circuit around my waist now.

>>76579382
>I like miso soup.
Sadly I'm not a big fan of miso soup. I like miso as a way to add flavor to dishes, but miso soup I'm not crazy about. I like it with a lot of additives, but at that point I like it because of the additives, not the soup itself.
That being said you did remind me that I should make more soups again, there's a few I really like. Thanks anon.

>>76579404
If you're asking if the lower bmp is good/bad for continued weight loss, it's neutral. It's great for your health which should be more of your concern. As for burning calories, you can think of it in relative terms of your bpm, not static. If you're trying to raise your BPM 50% during whatever you're doing, base it on your new heart rate, not your old one, and you should still see the same results.

>>76579404
my resting heart rate is in the high 30s when I test it in the morning. I have seen it up to 80 in the evening. You really got to test the shit a lot and take averages I think

Why is protein + fat so filling and carbs + anything so anti-filling
I'm not on keto but carbs are kinda my devil

>>76579509
carb+fat is the devil. If you just resolve to never directly mix carb and fat together you will see dieting become easy. Just eat protein and fat or carb and lean protein. In each meal. Very healthy

skipped breakfast, going to have a little extra for lunch to compensate, i'm just enthusiastic to lose weight so i want to burn fat for just a little longer

>>76579518
>carb+fat is the devil
God I've been craving chocolate bars like crazy lately. Why do I want carbs+fat so bad? Specifically in that combo. I never crave pure protein, or pure carbs, or pure fat, or protein+carbs, or even fat+protein, but man do I ever crave carbs+fat. All my cravings tend to be things that are carbs+fat.

After steaming broccoli, do you guys do anything with the water? Doesn't it have some vitamins in it?

>>76579518
>carb+fat is the devil.
why though
i have noticed that most garbage junk food is that combo as well

uh oh, injection bros whats our response

>>76579542
imagine injecting yourself with this shit instead of just forcing yourself not to eat

>>76579538
It'll leech some but not enough that you should care, that's more an issue with boiling. You could consider sautéing, roasting, baking, or air frying if you want to get everything out of it, or just eating it raw.

>>76579539
Well I don't really know but I would speculate it has to do with metabolism. Your body can burn fats or carbs and it can switch between these two modes but when you hit your body with a bunch of both, it just burns the carbs and all the fat is getting stored. Carb+fat also tends to be hyper easy to digest and hyper pallatable and just all around fatty foods. I am sure there is more to it

>lose 140lbs
>should be happy
>have horrific loose skin and look like im melting
I might not die young anymore but I'll be alone forever.....

>>76579546
I'm 25 years old and have lurked variants of these threads for like a decade. Forcing myself not to eat never worked long term. Maybe this is your first time here but maybe not. It can feel easy to be high and mighty but if you're here you've presumably failed to "force yourself not to eat" like you apparently imagine most "normal weight" people do, for your whole life. What makes you think you're going to be able to sustain long term weight loss when most people don't?
Yeah, you feel really motivated right now. I did too whenever I got back to it. But things swing and get harder, shit happens in your life. It's very easy to get pulled back into fat habits.
I'm willing to take tirzepatide for life to not be fat. Nothing else has worked, im tired of my young life going by while being fat. Just keep all this in mind as you go forward.
And keep in mind there's a lot of FUD around GLP1s that is, frankly, seething.
Our society assigns a huge amount of spiritual virtue to thinness nowadays. GLP1s, under this framework, create the opportunity for "spiritual fatties" to "blend in" as thin people without "doing the work".
You should do whatever it takes to get yourself into a healthy body you're comfortable in. I'm not telling you you need a GLP1 but don't let bucket crabs hold you down from exploring all your options.

Why do people say eating semen gives you protein? I looked it up and one shot of semen doesnt even have 1g of protein

>>76579542
It's better than being fat.
You just can't sue anyone for your being fat.

>>76579569
What height and how fast did you lose it? Give it a couple years. Your health insurance might cover a surgery to fix it if it causes you issues

>>76579539
The weight you want to loss is fat, and the body generally prefers burning glycogen into sugar first and restoring it through carbs because it's more efficient. Assuming you're getting enough protein, it won't draw from muscle before moving onto lipolysis. The more fat you eat the less of your fat it needs to break down. That being said, you do have a basic fat/carb/protein requirement for homeostasis, but if you're going fat+carb you're slowing down the processes that are actually going to cause you to drop weight.

>>76579588
>That being said, you do have a basic fat/carb/protein requirement for homeostasis
So what happens if you're only eating say carbs and fats with no carbs?

>>76579392
DUDE

Bodies need fats and minerals to produce hormones and shit, if you're on a too lean diet the cravings are going to be crazy.

That's not how that works

Good thing that's not what that is

>>76579537
Because it’s hyper palatable as I say. These foods are products of modernity. Keep in mind that your cave man ancestor likely never enjoyed fats and carbs together. He would kill an animal and eat a bunch of meat and fat, he would pick berries and honey and eat a bunch of carbs. It would have only been a very special spring time windfall for him to find himself eating carbs and fats together. A true feast

>>76579772
1800 max, usually closer to 1600.

>>76579542
Is anyone even on OG ozempic any more?
Hasn't it been largely upgraded to Wegovy or whatever, where it has cardio protection and better blood sugar stabilizing?

I know most of the angloids are on Mounjaro which seemingly has little side effects.

>>76579775
It's just carbs. People had limited access to carbs. When seasonal fruit like berries were around they would gorge on all the berries they could get and their body would store fat in winter.

Carbs are so "hyper palatable" (i.e. addictive) that people will drink sugar dissolved in water.

>>76579779
ozempic is so much cheaper and stronger. I have no idea why everyone uses trizepitide.

>>76579821
In terms of getting them through official prescription means, wegovy and zepbound (the versions of semaglutide and tirzepatide prescribed for weight loss, whereas Ozempic is for people diagnosed with type 2 diabetes) are about the same price. Many people's insurance only covers wegovy after a deal Caremark did earlier this year.

I don't know if I should eat 8-10 pieces of this or chicken and rice for lunch. I'm trying to drop 7 lbs but they won't go away no matter what. I also eat oatmeal for breakfast and salmon for dinner.

>>76579858
>8-10
if you cant lose weight just eat 4

>>76579858
>breakfast
>dinner

That's why you aren't losing weight. Eat once a day AT MOST, stop fucking stuffing your face. "Three square meals" is Jewish propaganda intended to keep goyim overweight

>>76579835
He's probably in the UK where they just tripled the price of Mounjaro compared to Wegovy

>>76579546
>imagine not struggling through some gay diet instead of enjoying slop while losing weight

I lost 100lbs the legit way before ever touching a GLP-1, there's no honor in not using one if you can afford it. They're safe. Modern food is legitimately unnatural and addictive and rewires your brain. Ozempic/Mounjaro fix that with basically no downsides. Sounds too good to be true but I can't find any legitimate issues after all these years

>ozempic face
That's just weight loss, if you were obese once and you lose weight you have loose skin, including in your face
>diabetic health issues
Those are caused by being diabetic, not by ozempic, they're just the main demographic using it

anyone here making prep meals? im eating this shit everyday;

breakfast
> tortilla with beef (400kcal, 31protein)

dinner:
>chicken + potato + green beans (444kcal, 30protein)

night snack:
> overnight oats + milk + protein powder (300kscal, 27protein)

so I have like 600kcal left, any ideas for cheap prepmeal? something after breakfast and before dinner.
I was eating toast with cheese and some meat but it tastes terrible after unfreezing.

I soft boil eggs and mash them to make something close to japanese egg sando, but I usually don't use mayo. Keep it on a glass jar in the fridge, lasts for a good couple days. Soft boiling will make it creamy enough to spread on some toast.

>>76580105
im wondering, if I make doof at sunday, can I keep it in my fridge for 5days? Im always freezing but maybe it wont be bad?

Momentum is a pretty powerful thing huh. Whenever I hit the 3 day mark of eating clean and following my diet I usually go weeks after that without even thinking about having a cheat meal but whenever I capitulate and have a cheat day it usually takes me weeks again to get back in the groove

That's not a great comment if you're claiming this is a weight loss recipe.

Anyone used Ozempic/Wegovy/any other GLP-1? What were your experiences?

>>76580159
Yacon syrup works better.

>>76580166
Not looking for a sugar replacement or "low calorie" food, I just want something that removes the impulse to eat

>>76580159
well for one thing I was already losing weight pretty good before my semiglutide came in the mail. Just the excitement around getting it had me motivated and eating right. Once I got it I found that it was effective about reducing food noise but best practice is to start with a tiny dose and ramp up very slowly. Once you get to around 1 mg a week you really feel it making your appetite small. At this point shitting becomes a daily struggle though. I had to eat some carrots before and after every meal just feel confident that I might be able to shit it out later. I also found that 1mg injection was too much, I felt like shit the next day. Its way better to break your dose up into 2x per week. Also just use the minimum effective dose. Don't just keep increasing your dose because you can. Remember that it is something to help YOU with the weight loss, its not going to do everything by itself.

Also it should go without saying but you are going to need to really optimize your diet around meeting protein requirements. Dont turn into a sack of loose skin with bones inside.

>>76579662
Im 5ft 10in and I was 295 at my peak. Wonder what the skin situation will ne for me. 255 now after 4 months. Im sure my insurance would cover up anything bad.

Is it better to just guess and eat good foods or can I get it more with just counting twinkies?

>>76580278
thats a cute idea

>>76580311
guess and eat good foods is better. Don't get too focused on the scale really. If you over eat on lean ground beef and vegetables and your weight goes up, some of that is probably going to be muscle. Body composition is determined by diet to an extent much larger than most people assume.

>>76580311
'weighing everything' adds between 10 seconds to 2 minutes to meal prep time

You can lose weight eating family cooking, just do it once a day. Counting calories is unnecessary and frankly unsustainable if you look at the data compared to fasting

Very big, too bad no woman will ever sex me.

>>76580341
per 100 ml water:
10-12g gelatine (powdered)
whatever flavoring you want to use (I used flavor drops)
sweetener optionally
food color optionally
1/2 tsp of lemon juice
Add gelatine to water, let it sit for ~5 minutes to soak. Heat while constantly stirring over low heat, wait until gelatine is fully dissolved. Do not reach or exceed 80C or it'll not harden.
Fill into forms
Let rest (few hours in fridge, overnight at room temp), if you want it even chewier remove from molds and let them air dry a bit more.
That's really it, though I'd suggest you wait until tomorrow so I can tell you if they're any good in terms of consistency. Just a question of gelatine to water ratio though.

Keto > OMAD > CICO

>>76580407
OMAD fails because the person ends up still hungry after the meal, and they eat something else, and that might snowball into full additional meal(s), and now the person is exactly back to where they started
Prescribing OMAD is about equally as effective advice as "eat few enough calories"

so is fasting just a meme? how long do you fast for maximum effect?

>>76580105
Thats a lot of chicken, looks good.

>>76580523
just do intermittent fasting or omad
longer fasts will affect your muscle

how do you guys shit regularly when cutting?

>>76579821
In head-to-head comparison more people lost more weight with tirzepatide than semaglutide, which is why we prescribe it.

You still need essential amino acids, though fats can be remodeled into sugars at relatively low efficiency, which isn't terrible but you'll feel like shit since carbs are essentially necessary for your brain and red blood cells and you'll be ketotic all the time.

Diet soda gives you cancer and diabetes though. It spikes your blood sugar just like regular soda, your body doesn't know the difference and releases a ton of insulin that doesn't have anywhere to go.

>>76580189
Yacon releases GLP-1. These drugs are GLP-1 agonists.

It's basically a natural drug which is safer and works better than the pharma drugs.

>>76580765
>It spikes your blood sugar just like regular soda
That's... not true. Not sure where you heard that from.

>>76580765
>It spikes your blood sugar just like regular soda

Inject insulin and find out what it does to blood sugar.

Psyllium husk (and optional wheat bran) in my morning oats.
But for me, it turns out the main reason I kept getting so constipated is because I had/have IBS. You'd never guess that it's things like cherries or garlic making you constipated, so maybe consider a FODMAP diet if it's really bad.

>>76580795
You should stop listening to your mom for diet advice.

>>76580311
Most people only cook a few similar recipes. Load them into MFP as either a "meal" or a "recipe" once, and then it's just one click the next time you eat it.

>>76580722
ozempic is a way stronger appetite suppressant. Those studies are on retarded fatass women. I bet a group taking amphetamines would have lost more weight than the GLP groups. Total weight loss is not that relevant

I literally dont want to eat. I want to lose weight, logically. But Its like I have an addiction or something. Or maybe my life is so empty that eating is the only thing that brings me any happiness. I cant stop eating though. I gained 20 pounds in like 1 and a half months. Fuck. Its over.

sounds like you aren't trying. you should give up and leave the general. the rest of us are making it and you over here sounding sweet. sex and travel fat boy, take a fucking hike

i tried for 7 years to diet before it clicked and i just kept going/succeeding
just keep trying, you'll hit a groove someday

On this day one year ago I decided to stop avoiding my problems and stepped on a scale. Weighted 105kg. I had never been that fat in my life. After a year of trying to get my shit together, I finally managed to bring my weight down to 80kg.
I know it's not much over such a long period of time, but accomplishing my goal, as well as the discipline and knowledge I gained along the way, has made me a happier man.

my grandma made some massive tamales and she has no idea what the fuck a "calorie" is

>>76580934
>they have pork and beef bits inside of them

>>76580900
In terms of dosing it is. People use like 8x the dose of trizepitide vs semiglutide and it also costs like 3x as much on a per mg basis on the grey market. So we are talking about a massive difference in cost. All of that and I wonder if the GIP action is really even at all important for people who are exercising rigorously. I have a suspicion that the difference in their effectiveness narrows significantly when the people in both groups are working out.

>>76580407
You can do all three at once, and if you want to lose weight, you are eating at a deficit (CICO). Though Keto makes it faster.

>>76580934
store some for yourself in the fridge. eat half a tamale per meal

>>76580934

>>76580958
Keto is called keto due to Ketosis, the fat burning state that is achieved through a deprivation of carbs. Instead of glucose from carbs, your body consumes the fat from both your food and body.

Do only fat piles of shits watch eating challenge videos, what I eat in a day videos or anything eating related? I assume it is so because you must be a literal subhuman to enjoy such videos, imagine spending your free time watching another human eat. I'd kys if I was forced to do that. I could only imagine only people who eat high sodium diets and/or are fat piles of shits watch these videos. Fat fucking sacks of shits, or sodium filled hogs that are now called "thicc". Imagine eating because you "enjoy" eating. Would love to chase these hogs with a pitch fork on a horse and pierce their guts with my pitch fork, letting them try to run away naked like how a hog would be in its natural habitat. Now that would be fun to watch. Fat obese sedentary sacks of shit.

Appreciate that. It's really easy to not notice progress in the mirror until I put those pics side by side and think "shit... am I making it?"

Embrace the hunger anon. Being hungry will only make those meals taste extra good

It's not 2004 anymore, bro. People have moved on from this meme supplement. There's a reason you didn't provide a link to the study. It's because it was a study exclusivwly on premenopausal women, and the study is so garbage that they purposely don't even mention how many women it was on. All this is is a fiber supplement and in the doses they used, for a 200 pound person, it would be equal to adding 26 grams of fiber to their diet, which obviously is going to cause a weight loss.

>Mentions nothing about what hes eating
How are we supposed to even remotely address this. You could be "dieting" on sugar free Hershey's kisses and slimfast shakes or you could be "dieting" on way more veggies/meat than you are used to

You haven't either or you provide actual evidence for your claim, which you can't because if that were literally true, every single person who drank a diet Pepsi while they didn't have food in their stomach would immediately pass out.

If you're motivated to keep going as you said, it'll go away eventually, it just takes time.
Enjoy your twunk.

Well you gotta show us now. For purely scientific reasons of course.

The gelatine content is too damn low, it's got more of a gel consistency than what I'm after (chewy gummy bears). Will have to do it again with more gelatine.

I think you have a genuine mental disability.
