Seems to work. I'm also considering fasting every Sunday so that even if I do overeat on Saturday, I at least have a day of recovery. If I don't overeat, that's just more weight loss

Is this tracking your weight or your mental state?
Sadly my mental state is proportional to my weight. I'm confident and motivated when my weight is low. I'm insecure and defeated when my weight is high
>yes. I know. I'm moronic
I can't help it anymore. I don't know how to explain it. It's so compulsive and illogical.
You're already light af. What's you're height?
Can’t wait to see your meltdown once you officially failed. You will spend years if not decades trying and failing. It will be kino
You will fail.
You're just not gonna make it until you learn to control yourself.
I know. I need to control my snacking, but its hard. I lose great weight when I don't over eat, or snack but the weekends I really just sit at home. Doing nothing but watching TV or playing video games
I think I get different answers everytime. I also ask different questions everytime. And some anons like lurking to see my trendline
>but the weekends I really just sit at home. Doing nothing but watching TV or playing video games
>No specific cardio work
This is your problem. You need to be lifting and incorporating some light cardio. It will help fill the void on the weekends, allow you to eat more, and still burn more fat/reach a lower weight. It's not enough to just starve yourself and play video games.
>I need to control my snacking, but its hard
Are you getting 7+ hours of sleep each night? Controlling food intake when you're tired is stupidly difficult. If you're sleeping, then the issue is probably boredom. Do something productive and you won't think so much about eating
During the week I can control myself because I work 10hrs a day and still go to the gym. During the weekend I can't control myself because I spend all day in the house and I don't work out.
Maybe I make it so I workout on the weekends. One anon suggested walking. Idk but I need to do something. I'd bike ride but this time of the year has too much snow on the ground
>weekdays
I eat 1 real meal a day, a snack, and then I drink protein for dinner
>weekends
I try to eat 1 meal a day, a snack, then I end up eating another meal because I'm bored, then another snack, then I still end my night with TV and a snack
Come on man. I'm trying my best
if you just picked a sensible, sustainable calorie goal you wouldn’t constantly be failing and binging
ngmi
Sadly 1200 is only 700 off my TDEE. So it is a sustainable calorie goal. I refuse to do anything sub 500.
Honestly though, I might be eating under 1200 because my last average (before the binge) was 1.9, whereas I should only be at 1.5
>Honestly though, I might be eating under 1200 because my last average (before the binge) was 1.9, whereas I should only be at 1.5
The scale doesn't lie, anon. CICO.
>I refuse to do anything sub 500.
And how has it worked out doing a stupid 700kC per day? There are no shortcuts; aim to lose between ~0.5% and 1% of your body weight per week and calculate your deficit.
It's working just fine, except for the weekends. Weight loss shows it was working, except for the last binge. I'm not going to binge this weekend (hopefully) so we will see what weight I hit. I'm expecting to lose 8lbs in January, which would put me at 150.8 from my original weight. That would be 2lbs a week or 1
5% that's not that far off from your recommendation, so I don't see why you're so adamant on me being off
>It's working just fine, except for the weekends
>It’s not working
“these are the same picture” meme
Anon, if you are not trolling you are really stupid and stubborn. At least use a trip so I can start filtering your posts.
>stubborn
So are you
Bro I just lost 4lbs of that excess in 1 day. It's working
>3lbs in 2.5 weeks
Yeah, except the first 5lbs you lose on a diet of clean eating are water weight so… no progress yet.
So 1 anon says losing .5 to 1% bodyweight (.75lb to 1.5lb) a week is good, you're saying that 3lbs in 2.5 weeks (1.2lb) a week is bad.
Which one is it?
Take your starting number.
Subtract 3-5lbs for water weight loss in the first week.
After that, aim to lose 1lb per week with a 500kcal deficit.
Same as it’s always been.
That completely contradicts the first anon whose formula works off percentages. If I was 200lbs (thank God I'm not) his formula would call for 2lbs a week. Whereas yours is static at 1lb
500kcal deficit. 1lb per week.
The reason you’re failing and binging is because you’re eating less than that.
Fricking idiot.
So then say the other anon is wrong. Why are you only attacking me
Why are you eating at a deficit so large that you’re guaranteed to fail, and then failing, and then whining about it?
Who’s to say?
Whatever bro. This isn't over yet so you can't say I failed. Failing is giving up, which I haven't done yet
>I had a brownie
>I had ramen
>i snacked all day on Saturday
>I snacked all day on Sunday
Brother you’re failing every single day.
NGMI!
I gained 0lbs on brownie day. I'm already working off ramen day and Sundays cheat day.
What about you. Do you attempt PRs and always hit them first try or have you failed one deloaded retrained and hit it later? We are going to need a body post from you if you're such a diet expert
says the guy making hundreds of posts daily, ignoring all advice, failing, and refusing to post body
You first, my friend.
Obviously I'm fatter than I want to be if I'm trying to lose weight. Yet you are here claiming to be the Jesus christ of weight loss, spreading the divine message of 500k calories and 1lb a week. Walking on water and never falling to temptation.
If you want to act like God you need to prove you're God. Even Jesus had to "post miracle"
Fricking have a nice day homosexuals.
Hundreds of whiny baby complaint posts without a single picture.
Rope. Now. Tonight.
There it is. Your true motive was hiding all along.
Sorry demon. The name of Jesus burns your skin doesn't it. You'll never get me to quit or stop. I may whine, I may complain, but I'll never quit.
>I may whine, I may complain
seems like that’s the only thing you do
>ignores 16 days of weight loss
Oof
You haven’t lost any weight yet
You’re not going to, either.
Dude come March you're going to see how much weight I've lost and you're going to be eating your shorts. I gaurenfrickingtee it
Nta but if you didn't have the willpower to not become obese and you keep proving you don't have the willpower to not stuff your face with corn syrup, brownies and ramen what makes you think anything's gonna change from now to 1 and a half months? You've lost exactly 0 body fat, you don't magically retain 5 pounds of water overnight, you're just yo-yo'ing 2 pounds of water weight up and down your real weight of 157lbs
>2lbs of excess water weight is your real weight
Ok.
Either way you'll all see. I'll get better and better. Slowly building my will power. By the time I hit 130 you'll be asking me how I did it and for tips and advice. Then I'll tell you to check the archive because my entire story will be in there.
I officially declare I will post everyday until I hit this goal or it becomes 12/31/2024
>I try to eat 1 meal a day, a snack, then I end up eating another meal because I'm bored, then another snack, then I still end my night with TV and a snack

keep posting this thread you moronic zoomer, you’re gonna get the same answers
>keep posting this thread you moronic zoomer, you’re gonna get the same answers
not OP but at least this thread is about fitness and isn't coomer bait
keep posting anon
You missed the point, thus joining the ranks of OP
To anybody not pathetic and insane yet: the problem with daily obsessing over minor weight changes is that it drives you crazy (see OP) and is factually meaningless. Weight fluctuations under a 2-week trend are meaningless for non professionals. They give no statement of value to the dieting
is he obsessing? pretty sure hes just adding weight daily. i haven't seen his other threads so i don't know what you're saying.
why would you weigh yourself once every 2 weeks when you could weigh daily and track a 2 week moving average
If you were judicious and normal about it and did this it might be ok but wouldn't really be very helpful, and people have a lot of psychological issues tied up in their weight so someone analyzing it excessively immediately causes concern
>why would you weigh yourself once every 2 weeks when you could weigh daily and track a 2 week moving average
Because it is irrelevant data. OP is not tracking his calories, his diet and I bet he doesn't even work out. Those are just random numbers that doesn't bring any value or insight to some that wants to lose weight in the long term.
>OP is not tracking his calories,
I know instinctively how much I'm eating. About 1200 a day
>his diet
True
>and I bet he doesn't even work out.
I work out 4 to 5 days a week
>1200 calories a day
are you a manlet or a woman?
I'm a manlet yes
I wish it was. I wish it was
I thought you're supposed to rest on rest days?
>I thought you're supposed to rest on rest days?
It is completely fine to go on long walks on a rest day, or do engage in some other similar light intensity (non-aerobic) exercise.
>I know instinctively how much I'm eating.
Doubt, and your lack of weight loss progress is proof that guessing your calories is not working for you. Everyone who "guesses" underestimates their calories, unless they follow a strict meal plan and know exactly what they're eating ahead of time so they don't have to count them. A few hundred extra untracked calories a day can throw off all of your weight loss efforts. Since you're likely sedentary, and you aren't tracking calories, you're putting in 0 effort at weight loss, so why are you surprised that you aren't seeing results?
>unless they follow a strict meal plan and know exactly what they're eating ahead of time so they don't have to count them.
I do follow a strict meal plan... I eat the same thing every day and I've already calculated it to be 1200 calories. My problem is that I love snacks
Also I work out almost 5 times a week.
Maybe I'll incorporate more of that in my weekends when it gets warmer. It's cold as balls now -3 as of this morning
I unironically have a lot of shit and water on me. I expect I'll lose another 2 to 3lbs today. Especially since im skipping lunch again to make up for the bad weekend
>I eat the same thing every day and I've already calculated it to be 1200 calories. My problem is that I love snacks
So you don’t eat 1,200 calories per day. You eat three meals you eyeballed to be 1,200 calories (could be 2,000 for all you know) and then you’re just cheating constantly by eating whatever you feel like.
Really good idea, anon. Smart.
>im skipping lunch again to make up for the bad weekend
NGMI
I weigh myself in the morning everyday after peeing. Then I take the average weekly weight and use that to track my progress
just do intermittent fasting 16/8. it makes caloric restriction piss easy.
>can’t just eat consistently at a slight deficit
You failed as a human
You haven't even lost your water weight, and you gained it back in a day. What's your TDEE and deficit? Are you actually tracking your calories?
Guys im having a problem, i need to cut for an upcoming comp but my bodyweight hasnt moved in over 2 weeks. Stuck at 190lbs, wanted to get to mid 180s before i water cut the rest of the way to 181. Track calories/weigh food, average less than 1800cal/day. Is it stubborn water weight? I highly doubt ive put on 5lbs of muscle in the past 8-10 weeks so whats up why am i broken
How big is your deficit? How long have been cutting? How much time are you sleeping? Are you doing cardio?
Could be many things. Be specific.
Between 500-1000kcal deficit
Specifically cutting since the 4th
Sleep 6-7hrs (normal for me and hasnt been a problem previously)
No specific cardio work
>No specific cardio work
If you're not into cardio, just start incorporating daily walks. Get a fitbit or something and hit its walking goals everyday. You'll burn up a lot of calories very slowly throughout the day but it adds up.
Will do this then, cant hurt
I am healthy numbnuts, but like i already said i need to drop weight for competition, and id rather it not be 10lbs water weight. Fricking insane that a large deficit isnt enough anymore
They all assume we aren't healthy because we struggle to lose weight. I'm very athletic as well, my goal is to get Uber shredded (natty) but they won't believe that
>no cardio
>1k deficit
you could be on a 500 calories deficit if you just did your cardio numb nuts. you wouldn’t be starving yourself and you’d actually be on your way to being healthy
This is a troll thread.
>is eating less calories a viable way to lose weight?
gee, idk.
damn you must've taken a massive shit today
>You again
Dude, post your training routine and diet already
We want to help
You really want me to go through my whole routine? Or is saying it's a U/shoulders/L/U/shoulders/x/x good enough?
My diet I eat the same thing, well this week is an exception (I know, ngmi)
Main meal. 1 cup Eggs and 1 cup chicken
500 calories
Snack
1 slice Peanut butter sandwich
300 cal
>this week I have leftover potatoes egg and bacon so I eat a cup of that
>idk how many cal maybe 300?
Protein shake
220 cal
Coffee
200cal? I think it could be less or more. I never measured it but I doubt it's much more than that. I eyeball the creamer and sugar
So you're on roughly 1700 calories a day, lift 5 days a week and you're still not losing any weight? Something doesn't add up here
Do you train any cardio?
Where did you get 1700 from? Why are you guys ignoring 15 days of weight reduction (with a few hiccups). Now you guys are making shit up and really being disingenuous
I do cardio. 15minutes 10% incline 2.5 mph
