Any good weight loss advice

[New hopeParticipant 9]

wow… strong broscience in this thread

First off, there is absolutely ZERO evidence that meat(red or not) is bad for you. Second, animal proteins are superior to plant proteins.

Protein is the most important macro nutrient during weight loss for several reasons:

1. If you don’t get adequate protein while in a calorie deficit, you will end up losing muscle and bone mass instead of fat, and this will results in you getting “skinny fat” and looking like a f~~~ing f~~~~~.

2. Besides protecting your muscle mass, protein is also thermogenic and increases metabolism.

3. Protein is extremely satiating, and curbs hunger.

My suggestion for you OP:

If you don’t already lift weights 3 times a week, I suggest you start doing it right now. Not only is it the most effective way to get lean, it will also help you age better by keeping cells young, protecting muscle and bone mass. It will make you able to eat more, and subjectively it is actually quite enjoyable once you get the hang of it. If you have any questions on how to get started I’ll gladly help.

Now for nutrition:

There are alot of bulls~~~ protocols out there trying to overcomplicate things(I’ve been guilty of this myself)and make it unnecessarily restrictive, and this is just counterproductive.
The bottom line is being in a calorie deficit, this is why I recommend flexible dieting, as this is a sustainable way of eating that you can maintain the rest of your life. It’s not an excuse to eat s~~~ty food all the time, you should still aim to get a good amount of micronutrients and adequate protein especially, for reasons I’ve already explained. But there is absolutely NO reason to completely deprive yourself of treats you enjoy, if you do it right it will not affect your results at all.

Concrete cliffs:

– Lift heavy weight 3 times a week
– Calculate your TDEE and aim for a 300-500 calorie deficit
– Eat 1g of protein per pound of bodyweight
– Eat 40-60g of fat(see what works best for you)
– fill the rest in with carbs
– Try to eat nutrient dense foods like veggies, egg yolks ect. on a regular basis
– Don’t be afraid to eat “s~~~ty” foods that you enjoy, as long as it fits in your “nutrition budget”
– Get ripped

Good luck.

Great stuff. I backslid a bit recently but I’m getting back on track. Will let you know how it goes.

I would also suggest doing HIT interval workouts. They really make you shred fat, and they further promote the after burn effect. Also, do weight training with this. DON’T DO BASIC CARDIO! It burns fat, and muscle. If you want to build mass and testosterone, then do HIT and weight training. Eat nutrient dense foods and you should be on your way to losing weight!

Fuck bitches... literally and metaphorically

I am definitely a fan of HIIT. It’s brutal though, and I only do when I wanna get really shredded, like once or twice a week. I still think resistance training should be first priority.

To make it simple for the lazy folks: If you want to up your nutrition game without going to deep, then keeping an eye on these 3 things will give you most “bang for your buck”.

-Overall caloric intake
-Protein intake (1g/lbs bodyweight)
-Fiber intake (10g/1000cal)

I hope this may help some of you.

Awesome help guys

I’m currently around 177lbs which is bad because I’m only 5″6.

I’ll keep you updated on my progress. I am losing a bit though.

Not BAD. just a point to travel away from.
Weight cycling is normal.
Keep the trend in the correct direction and steady ready go!

Gradual baby, its really sustainable then.
Many ways to arrive. Go the fun way.

I hope all your guy’s advice works. I went to the doctor for an annual check up this afternoon, and I was scared by what I found out. My weight which was stopped at 250 is now 268; my blood pressure is good though. I found out that the pains in my upper ass crack (coccyx bone) is because of the weight I put on it from sitting on this hard metal chair and hard bathtub, and my outer lower left leg hurts when I get up off the floor. I also feel minor chest pains, which I had to get a ECG (they put these stickers and whirs on my chest). They also took my blood sample. So it looks like most of my health problems are weight related.

I’ll find out my full results Thursday or Friday.

I eat only 1 meal a day (10:30 PM), and I will confess that I’m not the most motivated person in the world. I think it’s because ever since I was a kid, I was never really given much expectations to do; school didn’t provide a lot of homework (finished by end of the day), my dad would let me sit in front of the TV or video games after school (3PM – 9PM). I will admit that my body was in better shape back in my school years than it has been since I graduated. I should of done weight lifting back then; I would of helped me get in shape, build confidence and deal with the school bullies.

Sorry to hear that man. Lets both endevour to shift some weight and take it slowly, day by day.

Just gotta burn more than you eat. Use a good calorie counter to track your diet, i use my fitnesspal

You take the blue pill—the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe.You take the red pill—you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes.

1 – Avoid carbohydrates. Eat veggies for health reasons, otherwise, stick with protein. Protein is more filling and takes more energy to digest. Your body needs it for growth and can be converted to energy to take the place of missing carbs.

2 – Do not go on a temporary plan. Make changes that you can stick with. Your body is built for survival, so if it is starved, you’re metabolism will slow, reducing weight loss. When you start eating more again, you’re body will retain as much as possible to prepare for the next starvation session. Your body needs to be conditioned to the constant state in which you want to live under.

3- Be careful with weight loss pills and such. Much of them are loaded with caffeine and such to raise your metabolism…and can cause heart issues.

4 – Count your calories. It’s rather easy to feel like you’ve reduced your calories, when in reality, you haven’t. It’s not a bad idea to count protein, carbs and fat too, if you’re up to it. There are apps out there that can help with this. Get a kitchen scale.

5 – Understand that while exercise does burn calories, it is not as much as you think. It is much easier to eat less then it is to exercise more. Although there are exercises that burn more, the best reason to exercise is for it’s health effects.

This.

Is s~~~ty advice, and not sustainable at all. Avoiding carbohydrates might be smart if you have cancer, but for weight loss it’s stupid in my opinion. Who wants to be on a low carb diet the rest of their life? Not me. Furthermore, carbs are more protein sparing than ketones, and ketogenic diets do not produce greater fat loss.

Low carb diets have no metabolic advantage: http://ajcn.nutrition.org/content/83/5/1055.long

Low carb dogma and mystical unproven theories about insulin, ruined my progress for way too long. Just makes things way harder than they need to be. Once I started eating carbs again everyday I got ripped really fast.

brb eating pancakes and french fries and 9% body fat.

MyFitnessPal is amazing. It makes tracking so goddamn easy.
Tracking gives you infinite more control and flexibility than any “diet” will ever provide.

Honestly the best thing to do is reevaluate your lifestyle choices and make necessary changes. Find good active exercises you will enjoy. For instance, I play football & basketball at my local church. I also enjoy lifting and doing jump rope. Typical cardio running is so boring to me, despite being a collegiate sprinter. I personally find it more enjoyable if I can workout with some form of competition. If there isn’t it just becomes mundane, and you are more liable to give up.
