I am 6ft, 24 years old, and 110 pounds. I am anorexic. Before I even think about offing myself, or die in my sleep, or drop dead of a heart attack, I'm going to give life one more shot.
All I ask is for your wisdom on how someone like me should approach strengthening their body to endure a wagecuck job. I can hardly last a 5 hour shift. My muscles that support me standing for extended periods are gone. I don't want to weight more than 129 pounds. Is it possible to live in these parameters?
eat homie
eat what exactly, i dont know much about eating besides "protein good"
at your weight you shouldn't really care about what you eat just so long as you're shoving food in your mouth. Just eat a shit ton of food and then start caring about protein when you stop looking like a skeleton
Will it help me feel better at work even though i wont be building muscle?
Eating will help you feel better in general but to be honest you will probably die. Sometimes you just can't get back. Of you are 6 foot and 110 lbs you could literally die at any time. Your need to see a doctor asap because you CANNOT recover on your own
Eat food. If you don't want to weigh more than 129, please have a nice day already.
i just might, hope you go on to do good things in your own life anon
Your problem is your anorexia. No you cannot function properly with that BMI on a job where you're on your feet all day. I'm not saying this flippantly: You need someone to smack the shit out of you pronto. Get the fricking anorexia out of your head. You know rationally it's stupid. You have to take the plunge and just start eating. You fear this, but it's an irrational disorder of your mind fixated on neurotic orderliness. Once you plunge without thinking your brain will rewire. Start small and work up incrementally over time. Add 200 calories per day each week or whatever. Some days you will fail and be upset. Keep pushing. Never, ever, ever give up. Never have a nice day. You cannot subsist like this. You're 24. You're young and it's not over yet, but it's time to get moving. You need to get past this and start focusing on life's more sane challenges. Challenge the stupid concept of yourself you have in your head right now. It's gonna be painful, but accept the harsh truth and embrace it. You'll be stronger. I promise.
Fight friend. You can do it. More pragmatically eat at least 80% whole food. The rest can be what you like. Eat meats, fish, dairy, potatoes, rice, pasta, egg whites, nuts, fruits, and vegetables. You can have some treats here and there like on weekends or some things like twice a day.
Your job requires ENERGY. Most importantly you need carbohydrates as they're your fuel source. Like I said, pasta, rice, potatoes... bagels and breads can be good too but try to get whole grain.
You can do it.
Jesus, anon. Thank you for that thought out loving response. I'll save it in a notepad and refer to it. God bless
God damn bro I thought I was a skelly as a 5"8' manlet at 110 how can you actually be that thin? Will you post body?
Oh i just realized you have the proportions of bale in that pic, wow
Unironically SS + GOMAD
This, you are the guy this program was literally built for
I've got it so twisted, I've been drinking 30cal/cup almond milk for so long, that even 1% real milk tastes too rich. Maybe I could supplement with water and protein power? Thoughts?
>I don't want to weigh more than 129 pounds
You have a problem with how you think about your body. I recommend reading Xenophon's Anabasis while eating ice cream. Feel yourself called to higher things than emaciation and self annihilation. Feel the possibility of luxuriating in your strength and competence in the world as does a large cat.
At that weight, many systems in your body are not working properly. You are hypogonadal, which is disrupting your thinking. Eating will reverse the damage that you are doing to your body. Carbohydrate will reduce cortisol, saturated fat will increase hormonal production, and protein will allow you to build muscle.
Other than that, you're asking how to put on 19 pounds of muscle. There are many resources on the internet to aid you in this task, but I will spell out a basic plan as a kind of charity in the name of Hitler. You must eat in a calorie surplus while resistance training. Given your current state, start out with lifting 3 times per week. Eat or drink carbs before training--think coconut water, candied ginger, dates. Sip on water from a bottle containing 2 scoops of whey protein in between exercises. After training, eat a meal containing all three macronutrients. Aim to train for 40-120 minutes each session. Focus on compound movements. Squat, deadlift, pull-up, row, pullover, dip, overhead press, bench press, etc. There is reasonable information on youtube from Jeff Nippard, Geoffrey Verity Schofield, AlphaDestiny, and that roided manlet israelite, RenaissancePeriodization.
based anon
I don’t know if you’re the based anon who posted T holding a needler but these Halo Soprano pics are fricking gold.
Thank you so much for going this in depth and the resources. But do you honestly think I can reverse the damage to my brain? I know I can rid my brain fog, but I think I've actually stunted my brain development at least 20iq sadly :/
As a former skellygay, you literally just need to eat more. Pic related is cheap, easy to make, and an easy 700+ calories. Pizza is filling too, and so is salmon with rice.
I do like pizza, thanks anon 🙂
I'm rooting for you anon. You can do it.
Thanks fren, much love
Don't listen to these fricking morons. I used to have an eating disorder, it affects everything about your physiology, start learning how to eat in bearable increments so as to not strain your body. With anorexia you'll either struggle with eating too much or too little based off of your preexisting nutritional behavior. Eat to recuperate, get sleep to recuperate, once you feel like you can move, do what you can to develop your personal fitness. Don't let your ego get ahead of you, don't pay attention to other people, you are the master and caretaker of your body, be pure, be humble, stay focused and aware of yourself. You can do it if you believe in yourself. Find balance in your life as well
I meant moronic about the guys who compulsively fixate on physique and superiority btw, didn't read the rest of the thread /fit has some sage people but there's a lot of threads where it's just a circle jerk of repressed homosexuality who were never able to earn their fathers approval
Also try applying your curiosity to the contrary state of physical health, if your body feels this horrible due to mistreatment, imagine how great it would make you feel given proper treatment
Thank you stoic Chad, I will remember you
Oh yes Stoic Chad, this question was meant for you to
Do you know of anything else that could be keeping the weight off besides thyroid issues?
Try snacking constantly over the day instead of eating meals. That is going to stop you from getting full and hitting a wall. Find a high calorie snack that you enjoy as well. I like cashews or crackers. Doesn't need to be high protein, you need to put on some fat rather than focus on muscle.
t. used to be 102 pounds @ 5'11
Darn, that's rough, I'm sorry you used to be there too. But I already do skips meals for a full stack of saltine crackers and am losing weight. And that stack keeps me full until dinner, and I'll eat dinner AND dessert AND coffee with creamer and am still maintaining 110. Something else must be wrong with me, maybe my thyroid? Idk....
A stack of saltines is less than 500 calories stop doing that
Nothing happens to anyone that he is not fitted by nature to bear.
Your anorectic self is your self-image you accept and you need to change that. Read psycho-cybernetics to understand that concept. Other than that I recommand no-fap(not a meme at all, its literally your energy you waste and for a small guy like you, you will need that energy .
I like to stay motivated my watching this yt channel:
You got this.
>Your anorectic self is your self-image
This is literally not what anorexia is about. Please dont give advice if you dont understand the problem
>anorexia
You are moronic. Anorexia is a psychological problem. Treatment is done with a psychologist who literally changes your self-image but you can do it yourself with affirmations.
>noo, it doesnt work like that
yes it does. If you dont accept that, go on and pay the mind israelites
You missed the point completely
>Nothing happens to anyone that he is not fitted by nature to bear.
Nature has fitted us to go long periods without food then, yea? From like when food was sparse for us as cavemen?
>IST anthem in the age of the troon
you have to gain at least around 60 lbs or you're ngmi
Ginseng. If your body, mind and spirit are dying from weakness, ginseng will save you. Chinks use it to keep their dying alive long enough for the family to arrive and say goodbye.
Telling an anorexic to take stimulants is not a great idea
i already drink coffee every morning and night. Isn't ginseng just the root in tea and stuff? Or are you guys talking about some refined thing that's like a drug?
Dont take it. Go to a doctor or you will die.
i promise i won't, but im just curious what you mean by ginseng
You will die. Ignore him. See a doctor
ah ok i looked it up, yea i already have a weak heart, I'll stay away fren, ty
I'm rooting for you, OP. Godspeed.
thanks fren
Hey bro I've been in that exact situation after I had major surgery that left me shitting in a bag.
My best advice is to try and gain weight before doing anything strenuous, cos you're at serious risk of injuring yourself atm. Gaining weight will open the door to everything else you need to sort your life out.
The body-confidence issues will subside as you fill out provided you put a bit of effort into some basic exercise (keep it to bodyweight stuff at first to be safe).
I personally went from 51kg (6ft 2) to 85 mostly by drinking loads of milk on top of learning to cook 3 square meals a day.
Last year I was shitting myself to death in the colorectal ward as a shell of a human, and today I was sunbathing shirtless with my gf
You can make it bro
>made it in around a year
Inspiriting anon, tyty
