You can manage losing 2lbs a week?? I struggle with a 500 cal deficit lmao, I struggle eating at maintenance even
Post a photo, I wonder if you're truly 13%
I have a sixpack and hollow cheeks only in good lightning, not in normal lighting I think, don't know what bf that is. Not gonna post pics right now at least
if you're 13% then why are you still on a deficit?
because I heard life starts at 12%
you ever been that low bodyfat though? Idk I wanna do it atleast once just to see what I would look like at "model level bodyfat"
no im like fucking 30% bf
ok good luck then
Good stuff yeah you gotta keep the goal in mind I guess. I struggle most with binging so gonna try not eating after 9 pm and see if I can keep the consistency up then. Good luck btw bro!
No I don't have like a legit eating disorder I think, more so just struggle to stay on a diet which is normal you know. I'm in the process of maybe getting diagnosed with adhd so if I do have it I might get some adderal which will be a nice help I guess.
You don't need to have an eating disorder, the point is that the pills make you passive and full constantly. I have heard stimulants work so hope that works for you!
yes this is the type of motivation I need thank you!
It's true. It's one of the only dopamine that doesn't have a regret phase. I feel better at the end of days I water fasted over days I binged. Perhaps Buddha was right, the only lasting happiness is found in renunciation - which is like the biggest fuck you the universe could give us.
I think ray peat is an idiot and that your advice is horrible.. I like your Albert Camus quote tho so I still like you
I'm literally lean by eating this diet and I don't have to use willpower lol. Enjoy your vegetable oils tho
sure you're lean but your not sub 12% so yeah I'll do diet coke
I’m the same. It’s so tough. But I think it’s willpower. Try to push through it for atleast 8 weeks. After a week it gets easier.
it's around 2700 and I do a 500 cal deficit. I eat pretty normal idk 150 ish grams of protein per day
That's quite high. Height, weight?
5'11 160lbs idk I do cardio so I can eat lol
How did you calculate your TDEE? You must be working construction full time or running marathons
Is it not same as calories burned per day? bmr+ calories from moving around and exercise etc?
Nice yeah I used to do a lot of fasting before because my appetite was always low early in the morning, but it doesn't work for me anymore.
You don’t have to put all your shit in a locked box, just make it less convenient for you to go get it. If you plan on getting to 10% by willing power alone, best of luck.
stallone was always leanmaxxed @OldVirgin
nigga stfu and stop following me into every thread
Yeah I know if you live alone it's easier for sure
Thanks for not answering my question. Yes, TDEE = total daily energy expenditure aka how many calories you burn in total (bmr + physical activities)
My bad I'm actually retarded. Well I plugged weight and height in cronometer which calculates my bmr at 1735. Then I wear an apple watch that tracks general activity and workouts. I also have include thermic effect of food in the calculation, but I might remove it soon to have more wiggle room.
