I don’t get it. I eat right, excorcise, like I’m eating 800 calories and it’s all protein. I run 2-3 miles every morning. I exorcise 17 minutes before lunch, 20 minutes after lunch. I go home from work and I’ll run another 2-3 miles. My diet is chicken and veggies and protein powder and water. Black coffee. But I can’t lose any weight.
>eat less excorcise more
I do hundreds of situps a day, hundreds of pushups a day after work which takes about an hour.
Cool, I did that now what? Do I starve myself and eat nothing at all? How do I lose the belly fat?

You're either lying or you've been only doing this for 5 days. The 800 kcal suggest you're lying or can't count.
Not lying. I went from 365lbs to 239lbs then fricking all of a sudden, the weight loss stopped full fricking halt despite my best efforts.
Consider this, you aren't only eating 800 calories. Your body simply cannot do that at this weight. You are incorrectly counting your calories or intentionally lying to cope. We'll give you the benefit of the doubt and presume you arent counting correctly.
I’ll just stop eating I suppose. I’ll move to a liquid of protein powder and black coffee. That should do it.
Jesus Christ you can't count OR read? That's not what I fricking said. Actually read the nutrition labels, measure out your portions, and correctly count your calories. You are not eating 800 calories and plateauing in your weight loss if you are exercising the way you say you are.
No don’t go overboard, best way to fail entirely. Stick with what you’re doing. Also whey is nice when you don’t have time or appetite to hit your macros but if you can get your protein from chicken, eggs and deens it’s way better.
My brother. Show us your calories logs. Now. Do you not have a log? Red flag. Guesstimations are le classic CICO mistake.
Don't be moronic. If you're doing things right everything will come together. Give it time and trust the plan.
He's still pretty fricking fat so his situation it's not a 1-to-1 equivalent to leangays in a survival/VLCD scenario.
Your body can lower your BMR in lotsa wacky ways. Making you 'le tired' is just one.
Earlier this year I started a deep cut and one week in, my beard stopped growing altogether. It took me 20+ days to get the kind of stubble I'd get in 2 days max. Crazy shit.
There's alsot NEAT, lessened metabolic thermogenesis, brain fog, etc.
That said, OP's either an unreliable narrator ("2-3 miles"... well, is it TWO or THREE?) or he hasn't been doing this regime long enough.
At this point he SHOULD be losing weight, even if it's 90% muscle and 10% fat.
If he was on a cut already he wouldn't lose water weight. If anything he could gain some by having ramped up the cardio.
Could be a lot of things. Sometimes weight just plateau for a while, don’t give up, slowly add more intensity to your workouts. Fix others things that might work against you like sleeping schedule, not enough vitamin D ect. And if after a while you still don’t lose weight see a professional nutritionist or a doctor.
No shade bro but you are not 239lbs eating 800 calories unless you are actually like 2 feet tall.
Even if he was only 5 days in, he'd have lost water weight by now from cutting carbs.
He's definitely lying.

95% of people who say they're eating 800 calories a day are mistaken.
100% of people who say they're eating 800 calories a day and not losing weight are mistaken.
>Not lying. I went from 365lbs to 239lbs then fricking all of a sudden, the weight loss stopped full fricking halt despite my best efforts.
Yeah because you're a fricking megafat and you started eating 1500-2500 calories and that's a frickload less than normal so you lost weight. You're not eating 800, and you don't even own a digital food scale.
People that can count and come to low calorie conclusion are drinking 2000 calorie drinks (often women)
Im in the same boat at 5 days in at 1200-1400 calories and I gained a fricking pound. How long until this shit starts going?
exercise
or
you exorcise your fat demons
I’ll keep at it, it’s just disheartening that all of a sudden I stopped losing weight.
>3 mile run every morning
>3 mile run after work
>low sugar diet
>black coffee
>WAHHH HOW COME I HAVE BELLY FAT
lmao dude
your cortisol is CONSTANTLY at a massive spike from all the cardio + caffeine.
High cortisol is fricking you up
hhttps://journals.lww.com/psychosomaticmedicine/Abstract/2000/09000/Stress_and_Body_Shape__Stress_Induced_Cortisol.5.aspx
>Central fat distribution is related to greater psychological vulnerability to stress and cortisol reactivity. This may be especially true among lean women, who did not habituate to repeated stress. The current cross-sectional findings support the hypothesis that stress-induced cortisol secretion may contribute to central fat and demonstrate a link between psychological stress and risk for disease.
You have to go easy on the high-impact cardio. Try long walks instead of short runs. Take more rest days. Quit the black coffee, or at least cut down. Take milk + sugar with your coffee; sugar is a major anti-stressor. Dietary sugar reduces cortisol.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9823716/
>As the consumption of sugar rose individuals had lower post-stressor cortisol levels, a smaller rate of increase in cortisol 20 and 35 min after the CPT, a lower cortisol peak, and an overall weaker quadratic effect. These observations add to a growing body of evidence reporting suppressive effects of high-energy foods on stress-associated glucocorticoids reactivity and are consistent with the comfort food hypothesis, where people are seen as motivated to eat palatable foods to alleviate the detrimental repercussions of stressor exposure.
Introduce additional sugar slowly, and consume it around breakfast or lunchtime -your cortisol follows your circadian rhythm and is highest in the morning. If you consume a lot of sugar in the evening when your cortisol is already tapering down and you're not being as physically active, it's just going to fatten you.
ketolards hate this one neat trick
Is this a bait? Frick you sugar israelite.
There is literally nothing wrong with consuming low-moderate doses of sugar if you are as active as OP claims to be. In fact I would say it's detrimental NOT to consume added sugars to offset the excess cortisol that such high activity levels can cause.
As well as dampening stress-responses, dietary sugar is also protein-sparing, by down-regulating gluconeogenesis.
I call it hummingbird mode, when you consume nothing but protein + sugar for 12 hrs during a cut, then a small evening meal with a little fat.
Get it from fruits. Processed white sugar is shit.
Fruits are good, but there's still nothing wrong with processed white sugar if you're active enough.
Black person I burn over 3000 kcal per day on a SLOW day, and I'm only 5'9. After my 150g of protein is taken care of I still need an extra 700-1000kcal of pure raw energy. Some of it comes from dietary fats, I love dairy, but the majority comes from sugar. I've never felt better or been stronger and leaner in my life.
>nothing wrong with processed white sugar
Shalom
I’m op
No I’m not going to do that. Frick your “healthy at any size” bullshit you unbelievable israelite.
Sugar does not inherently make you fat, but being a dumbass might.
>just eat sugar and fat, I swear it won’t make you fat!
>just keep spiking your cortisol constantly throughout the day and never mitigate it with food that is ALSO protein-sparing AND anabolic
cortisol does not increase weight on its own, there's a reason why corticosteroids can increase weight and that's because they increase your appetite.
Again another person thinking humans can break the laws of physics. Overeating causes weight gain.
Not what I said at all, I don't eat any processed/added sugar at all aside from maybe my sandwich bread. I eat a shit load of fruit though. Other guy spewing sciencey shit is not me.
>Frick your “healthy at any size” bullshit you unbelievable israelite.
I don't think you understand what I wrote. Oh well. I tried to help you.
I don't believe you are semetic. Thanks for the tip.
oy vey
Listen to this anon OP, cortisol is bad for fat loss and muscle growth, and sugar can play a role in a weight loss diet.
I’m just one example but I had the same experience with stalling weight loss from cardio and dieting, eventually I switched to mostly lifting for exercise and over time the fat loss has been much better, I’ve got way more muscle, and I’m easily able to consistently eat more while maintaining much less fat than before (abs are starting to become visible).
I'd use sugar only after a high protein meal, like lunch. if you spike your insulin in the morning after you fast, you might develop peripheral insulin resistance. you don't want that.
high cortisol isnt gonna make ur tdee 1500 cals lower
I really appreciate coming to a fitness forum to find out that black coffee and cardio cause weight gain. You contrarian morons never cease to amaze me.
moron. OP is obviously miscounting his calories and eating a surplus, but his excessive cardio + caffeine consumption is counterproductive too.
>Counter productive
>Exercise
>Caffeine
Yeah, I'm not the moron here.
Too much cortisol fricks you up
https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/stress-management/in-depth/stress/art-20046037
Intense cardio spikes cortisol (low intensity reduces it)
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18787373/
Yup, when I've gone through periods of high stress such as 120hr work weeks or when I was arrested and went to trial (I won with a not guilty verdict...police accused me of attempting to murder someone who didn't exist and who the police and prosecutors had never met seen or spoken to and who they couldn't produce at trial...) I put on a ton of water weight and fat only from stress. Like when I worked 120hrs a week I put on 20lbs of water and fat in one week. Stress is so bad.
Least delusional fatass
Nobody in the history of the planet has gained or stalled losing weight from drinking black coffee and going for a run. Especially not when they weigh 240lbs. This is the fattiest fat cope ever in the history of IST.
>like I’m eating 800 calories and it’s all protein.
no you're not homosexual, definitely underestimating your calories
have a nice day
They hated Him because He told the truth.
How long have you been stalling? Your weight can fluctuate +5lbs in a day. You won’t really see weight loss on a day to day basis. I would only weight every other week.
Also, make sure you are tracking everything you eat as accurately as you can. Get a food scale if you don’t have one.
Liar
Well your problem is that your BMR is cut in half so even if you take a small amount of food.
Take a look at this video this doctor explains it very well why something like this is bad
So you want OP to cut calories further? Why not encourage him to correctly count his calories?
You're not eating 800 calories
OP you need to find the nearest university or college, especially one with a physics department, because researchers will love to see a free energy system. Since you've beaten the law of thermodynamics which is a universal constant, you may be able to make a lot of money if researchers figure out what part of you that's breaking the laws of physics.
Or the likely scenario is that you're lying like a fricking homosexual and it's insane how much validation you seek when you're doing it on an anonymous image board.
do you ever get tired of repeating this same joke
I hate fat people too but the repetition of seeing the same shit over and over on this site is mind-numbing
Maybe it isn't a joke, maybe there are really so many people that don't understand how easy it is to see through their bs that the same basic advice has to be regurgitated time and time again.
because the laws of physics can only be broken in the absolute most extreme circumstances.
There is nothing a fat person can say to explain why they can't lose weight. Of course they are eating more than they say and of course they are exercising MUCH LESS than what they say, but we can't exactly objectively prove that without monitoring them 24/7, so we resort to science to explain what's happening. Either their body is breaking the laws of physics or they are lying.
If we rounded them up and put them in a room without food, they would lose weight, there is no way this would not be the case barring some insane supernatural event which is so unlikely it really is an impossibility.
It would be cool but I can’t even afford to feed myself. I can’t buy junk food. I’m broke as frick. Everything I eat is chicken and veggies. I’m literally making chicken soup in my crock pot as we speek for the week. Chicken, broth, and a bag of frozen veggies. I threw out all the junk food a year ago. I don’t eat garbage. But hey you know everything right? I’m not trying to argue with you here. It’s like I was losing like 1lb a week then BAM the weight loss stopped entirely. I don’t even care, I’m going to up my exercise routine. I thought I was doing enough. I guess not.
Nobody doubts you are eating that shit, but we ALL KNOW you are eating MORE shit than you think.
I weigh it out in little bags and put it in my fridge. I’m doing everything the doctor told me to do. I don’t eat anything else. You’re welcome to come dig through my fridge. The oranges are about a month old and moldy. I need to throw them out. I don’t even eat the rice that I’m allowed to eat because rice is fricking gross.
Why are you denying reality? We do not need to enter your fridge and re-count your calories to confirm our suspicions that you aren't the only human being on the fricking planet to accomplish homeostasis with 800 fricking calories in and intense cardio.
You asked how to lose the fat, we all said to count your calories correctly and burn more than you consume. Why ask if you weren't willing to listen?
There’s nothing to deny when I can’t eat whaf I dont have bro.
You are embarrassing yourself by taking the time to send a picture of your sad freezer when we all know your dining room table is buried under BK wrappers.
Try eating fresh foods, ones that go in the fridge you're likely concealing for a reason, fatty.
I can’t afford fast food, i can’t afford much of anything anymore.
Yeah I’m going to change it up. I bought a jump rope on amazon.
i feel u bro, i made another thread complaining about the same thing. i eat so light but i just cant dip below 140lb
I’m sure that by upping my exorcise that I will start losing again. I put in for a standing desk at work and it’s getting installed today. I hate sitting anymore.
how long have you been plateau'd?
About 2 weeks now
Picrel is my food ration for the week, I gotta cut it up into 7 pieces.
How tall are you
5'10
you arent getting below 140 pounds because you don't have anymore body fat to lose
i definently have bodyfat dude
5'10 140 pounds makes you the skinniest motherfricker on the board. Eat more and lift more.
i have visible bodyfat and people make fun of me to my face about being fat. different friends, people that have never met each other, call me fat. I dont do anything to enable that perception, I never talk about eating or fitness or anything weight related at all with them. its just bantz but it secretly makes me insecure as frick
Anorexia + no muscle mass.
>63kg at around 177cm
>I'M FAT
You're anorexic.
> I dont do anything to enable that perception, I never talk about eating or fitness or anything weight related at all with them
They know you're anorexic because it's obvious at that weight.
Spooky scary ISTizens send shivers down your spine
you're at 20 bmi, you're borderline underweight. You should have very little bodyfat if you exercise. If you are exercising properly and gaining muscle, you should have a very hard time staying under 25 bmi.
Not him. Op here, I’ll keep that in mind at the end. I’m wondering if all the loose skin is part of the weight.
>I’m wondering if all the loose skin is part of the weight.
of course it is, it has mass
Google says it could be as much as 60lbs, that means I could be 180. I might get the tummy tuck to get rid of it. I’m in a medium shirt and size 36 waiste.
1) You do not have 60 pounds of loose skin, that's nearly half the weight you have lost.
2) Removing loose skin is an incredibly painful procedure with a killer recovery. Save the surgery for after you have lost more weight.
It’s strange, my underwear are small. I look at them and my brain thinks that there’s no way I’ll fit. Yet I do somehow. Everything on my body is smaller except my torso. It just hangs down all strange looking and saggy.
I even found an old pair of shorts and they’re sooo huge on me but that’s what my brain thinks I should be wearing. I swear on everything I have, I’ll never go back to being that big.
>strange lights in my vision
You need to get on something for your blood pressure. Eat more salt. You probably need potassium and magnesium. That should make you start losing weight again. If your potassium is too low or magnesium is out of balance, your metabolism is shut down. Your body is shutting down. Go see the doctor and tell them about the eye thing. It’s really important that you take potassium with extreme weight loss. If you’re seeing stars, that means your heart while beating, is out of timing. Like it’s misfiring, if you don’t get your salts in order, you’re going to have a heart attack.
The more I think about it and the more I read through this thread, you need to take like 2400mg of potassium right away. Especially if you’re at an extreme caloric restriction. No metabolism = no weight loss. Doesn’t matter how much you’ll do. One day you’ll fall into a coma or your heart will stop beating. If you can get to Walmart, go buy some potassium pills and take like 8 of the 99mg frickers. You’ll feel right as rain and your body will light up like a Christmas tree and you’ll start losing weight again.
Or eat a couple bananas or peaches every day for a fraction of the price
They don’t contain enough potassium. If he’s seeing stars and the weight loss stalled, he might be in hypoketabolic state and is headed for an immediate crash. Like he might only have a few hours to live if he doesn’t get a few k potassium like today.
He’s talking about after running 6 miles, not every moment. Read more carefully and you won’t send someone into a fricking spiral over a nonemergency. moronic “medgays” like you are why people refuse to go to doctors
Op here
I wonder if it’s the same israelite telling me to eat sugar. I’m just going to up my exorcise and change it up and keep going. Gotta push past the wall. I don’t understand what the end goal of these homosexuals is. Like they see people getting healthy and they try to frick with people.
>medium shirt and size 36 waiste

>falling for the exercise to lose weight meme
my condolences
Congratulations, on being the biggest moron here
Too aggressive a deficit. It works fine once or twice every one to two weeks but a sustained deficit like that will put your body into starvation mode and ruin your metabolism. Who has a bigger deficit, someone consuming 1200 kcals and burning 1400, or someone eating 1800 and burning 2500? Eat alot more calories ideally carbs as they're severely lacking in your macros. Secondly, you can improve your calories out. Hundreds of sit up and push up? Your body is efficient at those movements and will burn less kcal doing them, find something your less efficient at and do that for awhile. Swimming, jogging, skip rope, hill repeats, burpees, strength training all will burn more fat and also strength traing will give you some muscle once the fat is gone, I recommend SL5x5. Muscle also burns fat and increases testosterone which also burns fat
Holy shit this guy heard every rumor at the same exact time.
NGMI% speedrun
Stfu idiot
>below 1k calories and you're going to be losing more than gaining
Yes, initially. Then the body realises your essentially starving it and reducing its chance at survival so its cuts your caloric output to prevent it from starving ergo 'survival mode' or the technical term metabolic adaptation or adaptive thermogenesis
>You're the moron for not understanding even basic metabolic processes.
Lmao, like pottery. Also congratulations again
Black coffee speeds up metabolism. Eat more, your signal your body that resources are plentiful, not scarce, and your body will into fix its metabolism and boost weight loss
>so its cuts your caloric output to prevent it from starving
and how does it do this? by cutting activity levels and producing lethargy, its not this magical system that automatically reduces your BMR.
If your body is taking in more calories than it takes to run, you will gain weight, if your body is taking in less calories than it takes to run, then you will lose weight, there's no magical thing that's happening here with starvation mode.
Watch some survival TV shows, you'll see it for yourself. When people start starving, they do not even have the energy to walk out and pick up firewood. They barely have the energy to even get up out of bed. When you are starving the most mundane and basic of tasks become herculean efforts of willpower. This guy is spending at least an hour a day strength training and he runs 6 miles a day on top of whatever else he's doing to live, he has an abundance of energy.
You're moronic and have no understanding of the fundamental biology of metabolism.
I fear we may be wasting our time here
>this magical system that automatically reduces your BMR
Yep
>they do not even have the energy to walk out and pick up firewood. They barely have the energy to even get up out of bed. When you are starving the most mundane and basic of tasks become herculean efforts of willpower.
Hmm gee I wonder why
Look you can either google metabolic adaptation and adaptive thermogenesis its one click away or you can keep being moronic I really don't care at this point lmao
Hey, you almost got something right!
starvation mode does not exist. Your body isn't just going to stop losing weight. It will certainly do things that will reduce caloric expenditure, but below 1k calories and you're going to be losing more than gaining.
If OP was really 'starving' then he would be physically incapable of doing all the exercise that he does. That's how his body would adapt to the caloric intake, by making him much more lethargic.
You're the moron for not understanding even basic metabolic processes.
OP claiming he was excited about his new standing desk while he's on an 800 calorie diet made me chuckle.
Nobody could be so foolish.
Hence the black coffee anon. It’s hard to get moving without it. I’m giving this my all.
I'm a fastgay and even on day 3 of it, I can still do all my workouts. Can't lift as much but I can still bike and do bodyweight stuff. Never drank coffee too, I'm convinced it's a coffeegay problem, being unable to do shit till they have their morning drink
Based
>Then the body realises your essentially starving it and reducing its chance at survival so its cuts your caloric output to prevent it from starving ergo 'survival mode' or the technical term metabolic adaptation or adaptive thermogenesis
This is just nonsense and easily answered empirically. Metabolism cannot drop to nothing, and the modest adjustments in BMR can be offset by a brisk walk. It's of academic significance but not practically insurmountable.
>Weight loss stalled?
>Shovel yourself full of donuts
What the frick is this advice? Good Lord.
NO, he needs to take more food and trust the process!
a plateau is normal
do a week of refeeding at 2000kcal and then proceed
I might try that but when I get paid. I’ll add some rice etc. i dont like brown rice but I’ll add it.
I did this and it worked. Somehow the body stops burning calories normal but when I ate like I always did for a short time I suddenly lost wheight.
This happened to me a couple of years ago around the same weight I'm 6 foot 2 so i was insanely bloated i had like 10 pounds of water weight and i didn't notice results for weeks then i decided to go on a fast because it was a religious holiday anyway and i had never done a long fast after that i was loosing like at least a pound a week with minimum effort besides staying under 1000 cal i guess and when i did all my steps i was loosing 3 to 4 so please power trough the initial period or go on a fast or keto for a while just to see if it's water weight also you may be sleep walk snacking cought my roommate munching down milchschnitte asleep once
Unless I’m eating raw chicken, i have nothing else in the house to eat. I got rid of all temptations.
>fatty cope: the thread
OP. You're building up muscle under all your fat. Muscles weight more than fat does. So while loosing fat, your muscles have grown and you're not loosing weight. Tbh the number on your scale doesn't matter that much. If you look and feel better then last week, continue your way. Just make sure to really count your calories right and continue moving.
I’ve been fat since 16 and I’m 39. I’ve never ran 20 feet much less 3 miles and I’m up to 6. I’ll feel light headed and see strange lights in my vision but I’ve never felt so… happy.
>excorcise
>>>/x/
Some people just have bigger bodies. They cannot help it. It is the endomorph/mesomorph/ectomorph distinction. It's genetic.
Cant believe Vince got himself another one
What is it about fat fricks that make them lie about their diets, their exercise and then claim they can't lose weight? I legitimately don't understand. On the one hand it implies they must understand how to lose weight. On the other hand they must know they're not doing it. So why claim they're doing everything right and not losing weight? What do they hope to gain? Are they looking for someone to validate their fatness? If so why lie about trying to lose fatness? I just don't get it.
I think they want power over the situation. Forcing others to bend the knee and say “yes, dear” counts as a win for the fatties.
I’m the medgay telling op to take potassium. No salt and your body will cease to function. No matter what you’ll do, you’ll see a stall in weight loss. Then the muscles will start to cramp up. Then he’ll either have a heart attack or op will fall into a coma pretty quickly. The fat releases chemicals as the cells are starved causing the body to burn through its salt reserves.
Start weighing your food.
>I'm eating 800 calories
No you're not. You're not above CICO laws.
get your shit together. you're not eating 800 calories a day, you're probably counting wrong. get yourself a scale if you don't have one, and also reduce the oil if you're cooking with oil (you can also just weigh that).
I'm constantly losing weight with 1500 calories a day and a regular 6days a week gym workout - no cardio.
All else equal (body mass, muscle mass index, height, fitness, etc.) metabolism implies inherent physiological differences in how your muscles, organs, etc burn energy. I fail to see how this variation could be anything significant. 200cals variation at most imo.
>excorcise
knobhead
>I don’t get it. I eat right, excorcise, like I’m eating 800 calories and it’s all protein. I run 2-3 miles every morning. I exorcise 17 minutes before lunch, 20 minutes after lunch. I go home from work and I’ll run another 2-3 miles. My diet is chicken and veggies and protein powder and water. Black coffee. But I can’t lose any weight.
>>eat less excorcise more
>I do hundreds of situps a day, hundreds of pushups a day after work which takes about an hour.
>Cool, I did that now what? Do I starve myself and eat nothing at all? How do I lose the belly fat?
Me two days into my cut
antipsychotics break CICO if you're actually counting cals correctly, otherwise you are mistaken somewhere along the line
they don't, they just make you hungry as FRICK
what kinda breaks CICO is fricking with insulin (which was also used to wrangle morons and crazies - look up insulin shock therapy).
shrinks figured long ago that fat Black personcattle is docile Black personcattle.
It's always I'm eating [insert ridiculous deficit ] and not losing weight! Yet when the moment you ask for records of their calories consumed its non-existent. Oh so you don't keep track of your calories then. You just think you do. Gotcha. How do you expect anybody to take this seriously if you're not even doing the bare minimum of keep an actual record of calories eaten? You'd be surprised how much you eat without realizing.
When you're eating 3 chicken breasts, one green apple, a 12 oz bag of frozen broccoli and 2 jars of black coffee you don't need to track calories.
>I'm not losing weight
>No I don't need to track calories
Uh huh...
you don't need to be a neurotic frick to lose weight as a fat frick. counting calories is for slop-brained NPCs. that kind of granularity is only needed by sick c**ts getting peeled.
if you know what a 500-cal meal looks like and cook all of your meals, you can eyeball pretty much everything
and when in doubt just err in the side of caution
shit obviously gets harder when trying to get shredded and the body's fat-sparing mechanisms kick in (which is different from metabolic adaptation), but that's not the case for OP or ANY fatty.
OP is obviously incapable of eyeballing his meals, or he would be losing weight.
Yeah your logic is solid and great if you're continually seeing progress. If progress is stalling you're really going to keep doing the same shit without checking? As the saying goes if it ain't broke don't fix it, in this case that shit is broke. Fix it. If OP can't even do the minimum of verifying how much they're putting into their body how do we know thats not the issue here? It's the issue you'd address first bur we can't even get a concrete answer out of them other than they don't need to measure since they barely eat, oh might as well go anorexic hurr durr. It just comes off as someone immaturely b***hing instead of trying to find a solution to their problem.
>If progress is stalling you're really going to keep doing the same shit without checking? As the saying goes if it ain't broke don't fix it
yes. trust the fricking plan. reassess your strategy but if everything checks outs then keep at it. the lord works in mysterious way.
if you want to bruteforce this shit, cut your portions in half and starve yourself, yeah that works too.
>if you know what a 500-cal meal looks like and cook all of your meals, you can eyeball pretty much everything
>if
Key word. OP obviously doesn't know. moron.
>When you're eating 3 chicken breasts,
Plain, unseasoned chicken breasts with no dressing, sauce, or sides?
grilled chicken with salt and pepper, yes. maybe some spices if you're a wog.
>sides
steamed broccoli
>sauces and dressing
miss me with that Black person shit
You weigh your chicken?
I'm not OP. I seldom eat chicken, my mom doesn't like the smell.
I eat pork chops, steak and eggs.
either way, a medium-sized breast is a medium-sized breast. you don't need to be anal retentive about this shit. anything you buy at wallyshart comes weighed in anyway.
do you perform a biopsy on your chicken to identify the intramuscular fat content? not all chicken are made the same after all.
Yes, OPs chicken is doped with mass gained and excess carbs. You figured it out. He should sue someone
Black person the chicken breast at my grocery store weigh almost 1lb each. All the food tracking apps count 1 chicken breast as like 6oz cooked. In reality it's double that.
>the xbox yueg breasts they sell at my shartmart are yueg and not small
yes
yes, but at least I don't baste my chicken in corn syrup and colon cleansers
You sound like a homosexual
>2 jars of black coffee

anyways you're either lying or you're leaving out some major shit here. Either those are REALLY big chicken breasts or you're deep frying them or you're adding tons of butter and oil to anything or your coffee isn't actually black or something.
If you're not lying then go see a doctor instead of venting about it to IST.
And how much protein powder? How do you take your protein powder? What do you mix it with? Are you weighing your food?
3 scoops of chocolate whey in 1 cup of whipping cream mixed with 1 cup of water
Assuming you're counting correctly, it sounds like your maintenance caloric intake is 800ish. Try cutting to 400 calories a day for a week and see if that does anything. If that doesn't help, cut down to 0.
>like I’m eating 800 calories and it’s all protein
If that's true you've already fricked up.
those feet are disgusting
OP's maintenance calorie level is 800.
this means he's smaller and weaker than an average female
You're not eating correctly and you need to do things to fix your hormones and metabolism because its not working right.
Increase your protein intake to around 1.5 grams of protein per lbs of body weight and supplement with 5-10,000 ius of vitamin d a day and 250-500mg of magnesium and take fish or krill oil. Also take a good multivitamin.
Also take a good probiotic supplement. The good bacteria manufacture compounds that cause weight loss and they manufacture and store 95+% of your neurotransmitters like serotonin and 50% of dopamine. The probiotics make a far bigger difference than we realize.

Try an elimination diet. Cut out sugar, gluten, starch and swoi (not onions, frick this site's word replacement garbage)
Does CICO seriously not work for some people? I never keep track of my calories because I know how much I need to eat to lose or gain weight. Do you people not own a scale or something?
in terms of fat loss, CICO gets fricky when trying to hit single digit BF% because at some point your body would rather eat muscle than burn fat
(it's still CICO though. you're not breaking thermodynamics)
but for 15%+ BF fatties and specially 20%+ lardos, CICO works like pottery.
Vitamin D is massively important. Studies are showing that people who take vitamin d lose belly fat by the end of studies.Vitamin d is basically a hormone and improves your metabolism and immune system.
Just go outside you fricking virgin
Omg queen, it's because you're in starvation mode!! Your body is holding onto all your fat DX.. You have to EAT to lose weight (Ugh, I know!! It's so weird..)
>I do hundreds of situps a day, hundreds of pushups a day after work which takes about an hour.
OP's a moron but I actually do something like this. I do about 100 throughout the day, cause every 30 minutes on the computer I do 5 pushups. Is this moronic, I heard you can break a bone
>gay and not even funny gay gif, unlike big brother ones
>"j-just look it up yourself, I can't be bothered to link it"
All right thanks for proving your position wrong
If your calories are really that low your body is shredding muscle from your body, thus obliterating your metabolism.
Very strange. I read through this thread and I don't see any calorie log showing this 800 cal a day diet.
Cortisol.
It’s quite simple you’re eating too much. I guarantee you’re not eating 800 cals a day though
1) you’re absolutely underestimating your calories
2) there’s no reason at all to have such a high deficit. You’re going to go from looking like shit because you’re fat, to looking like shit because you’re skinny fat. Do a normal, 500-1K calorie deficit, accept the fact it’s gonna take a while.
>and it’s all protein
Stop believing in memes. Eat low fat, high carb.
800 kcal and not losing weight? No you obviously are lying to me fat ass there can be no other way( according to my God king CICO that is). Wtf is metabolic adaptation? Some fancy made up word to confuse us total retads i bet. I'd say cut your intake to 400 kcal and do a brisk walk, that should be healthy and enough, people on that tv show survivor did it and they looked shredded as phuk. Also I'm a 240lbs massive virgin btw, not sure how relevant that is tho
Anon, since you are the same weight as OP I must ask, how much do you eat for maintenance?
I eat your mother's c**t 2 times a day before she begs me to cum inside her
There’s your problem, you are what you eat. Fat c**t.
You are full of shit, unironically you are not pooping, there is no other way for your weight to not be dropping like a fricking rock at your weight, I'm a 165lb 5'11 twink and I eat 2400 calories a day to maintain this weight.
I've been on the boat long enough to know that only one of the following can be true:
>You're being consistent
>You're in a deficit
Hey. This happened to me at 220. I discovered I was severely underestimating just how many peanuts/peanut butter I was eating. I stopped eating calorie dense peanuts and suddenly the weight started dropping again. Maybe you're mistaken, or lying, or lying to yourself, about a certain calorie dense food you're consuming much more of than you think you are.
If this is not the case, then ignore this.
I was in the same boat as you. I lost 70 lbs then I hit a major plateau and didn't lose any more weight for like 2 months.
You want to know what I did.
>eat less
>move more
Then when i stopped losing again I
>eat even less
>move even more
