I'm not, but I like to troll these threads. I'm not feeling well today though, so enjoy your thread, unwell friends. Good luck on your search for better nutrition.

Skinny rich guy

I'm a fat fuck, feels not so great man. I know it's because I eat way too much, just need to quit being a dumbass and chomping on shit when I really shouldn't.

>>6259825
I'm not, but I have a sincere and almost overwhelming fear of becoming overweight. I'm a skellington with a tiny bit of belly fat, maybe 4-5 pounds (at the very maximum). How do I get over this fear? I eat healthily the majority of the time (90% of the time) but if I have a day of excess or a special weekend where I eat/drink lots then I feel guilty. I wish I cared less.

>>6260138
Count your calories. If you don't hit 2000 one day add what remains to your limit for the next day. Make sure you balance to <~14000 a week.

>>6259825
I'm not.
Never understood why people eat like dogs until they puke. I never had a fat friend either. Fat people are both inferior and dumb.
Racism and religion hate is nonsense, fat hate on the other hand is reasonable in several aspects IMO.

>>6260143
That may not be it for some fatties though, I've never pushed my self that far.
I got overweight because I just got lazy, some things that happened didn't allow me to get out for a walk/run as often as I did, I regret not just getting off my ass and actually fucking exercising.

But hey, I'm gonna be changing that this year, gonna start exercising more and eating healthy again.

Being fat sucks, I wouldn't recommend it.

>>6260148

Agreed. I've always been chubby, but when I started getting near 180lbs I just said "fuck this." I don't understand how so many people can look at how bad eating unhealthily and not getting enough exercise is for you and yet they continue to do it. And yeah I get that there are plenty of skinny and "fit" people with shit diets and poor health- and yes, I get that some fit people can be dicks because their looks are the only thing they have to validate themselves- but how and why do people poison themselves and then pretend they're as healthy as Richard Simmons? Just because some meathead at the gym was mean to you as a kid is no reason to stuff yourself until you can't physically move on your own.

I don't get it. I'm down to 160lbs with 20 more to go and I feel great, why doesn't everyone do this? It's really not hard. My blood pressure's even stabilized [it was abnormally low, actually.] I honestly do not understand why more people can't into nutrition.

>>6260150
Because it's hard at first, people get demotivated the second they start, and don't continue. I've heard that after the first week it gets easier, so I'm hoping I can last that long.

I really wanna be healthy again, so I don't think I have to worry too much.

>>6260151

Yeah, that's a good point. I guess sugar and fat addiction can be as deadly as heroin. The only problem is, we actually try to keep children away from heroin.

>>6260143
Wow, people other than Chinks drink Vitasoy lemon tea.

>dat teeth-eroding goodness

>>6260142
I do count my calories. My RDA is around 2400 according to my size and activity level. That's easy to manage on a normal week but it can be a struggle if I have a weekend away or if I go on holiday for a week, which makes me feel guilty. I normally find that things balance out eventually, but I just wish I wasn't so obsessive over it.

>>6260155
take it from someone who has been there and back again (fat as fatass to skinny to lardass)
being obsessive may very well be your best option

>>6259825
As in fat or simply over BMI target?

I'm fat. Everyone gets fat eventually if they don't take very good care of themselves. Just look at famous old people.

NEWSFLASH!!!
FRUIT AND VEGETABLES ARE LOW IN CALORIES AND FULL OF NUTRIENTS.
EAT MORE OF BOTH.

If you sit down to a plate covered in vegetables and dont feel like eating it you aint actually hungry, so you dont need to eat, just suck it and skip the meal, dont give in to cravings, cravings are different to hunger.

Best thing I ever did was allow myself to skip meals, for years I was sucked in by the whole blood sugar/metabolise/you must eat 4-6 meals a day and a big breakfast is essential. BULL FUCKING SHIT.

Eat when you are hungry and eat slowly, chew well, eat fucking vegetables!

I love meat but will stick to 3oz portions, u get all the nutrients but limit the calories.

oh yeh exercise is great but not essential to weight loss, its like 20%, get your diet right first, dont try and do both at the same time, you will fail and feel shit about it.

>>6260143
>Fat people are both inferior and dumb.

Don't let it control you bro. I got so obsessive over my weight and counting calories I became an anorexic. 6'8 and 168lbs wasn't pretty.

>>6260183

>eat when you are hungry

this is stupid advice, hunger isn't a direct sign of need or the lack thereof. many, possibly most, overweight people are overweight because they don't experience hunger on a schedule commensurate with their needs.

My campus gym is fucking gross. It's so populated there that whenever I go I always come home with a cold because it's germ infested. I hate it so much.

>>6259825

Nope I'm <10% bf right now after a cut. Losing weight is one of the easiest things I've ever done. I can't understand how people are overweight

Fat in highschool, got worse afterwards. Went up to 200+ and at that point I decided to exercise and diet. After 2 years and 80 pounds gone I collapsed and turns out I am now full on diabetic with no insulin production. It was too late for me bros, but it may not be for you! Please don't turn your life around too late.

>>6259825

Binged like a mofo yesterday and weeks worth of dieting was destroyed in five hours.

Buy a treadmill, anon. Do you know how easy it is to get cheap exercise equipment from people on Craiglist? You can get one for $150 or less easy -- sometimes even for free, so many people buy equipment like that and then never use it so they toss it up on Craiglist for super cheap just to get it out of their house. It won't be amazing gym quality equipment but it'll keep you from being fat.

Fat Ass.
Trying to lose weight without totally giving up beer.
For lunch I am having a big salad with a can of sardines in olive oil as the dressing

>>6260539
>olive oil as the dressing
literally the most calorie dense thing there is. I hope you're mixing it with vinegar at the very least

>>6260645

To be fair all oils are equally calorie dense (since they're literally pure fat). There is some slight evidence that olive oil is actually the most satiating of all the oils, but it's shaky. Use 1 tablespoon per serving max

I'm on the verge of overweight BMI-wise. Started counting calories and now I'm slimming down without much effort again.

Feels good man.

>>6260645
When I tell people that very line(mind you these are people who use way more than a TBSP per serving) I usually get

>B-but its a good fat!

Sends me into a fit every time.

I'm 21 and I've been overweight since I was in middle school. I finally realized that I've been consistently gaining weight since high school and now I'm changing. I'm probably obese although I really don't look it since I'm tall.

For the past two weeks I've been on the treadmill 5 days a week. I already noticed an improvement after the first 3 days. Now I feel way better when I get on and I can go harder and longer. My girlfriend says I already look better and I honestly haven't even been trying that hard. I just force myself to go on the treadmill for ~20 minutes a day, and I eat less. I feel a lot fucking better too, I have more energy and I'm getting motivated to improve other aspects of my like like school because of it.

>>6260828

Oh and I used to drink A LOT of beer so I've cut back significantly on that. I stick to whisky when I want to drink and I may have a beer or two if it's a party. That beer was really fucking killing me, I could drink 2 six packs of Flying Dog Raging Bitch in a few hours which is a shit load of useless calories.

Not to mention that beer has estrogen in it which will give you man-tits.

>>6260828
Depending on how obese you are, you may want to start casually lifting weights in order to fill in more, because you will look flabby if you manage to lose a ton of weight.

Mind you, like I said, this all depends on the severity of your obesity.

>>6260841

Yeah I actually have some weights in the garage but with the weather it's cold as shit. I'll probably start lifting when it gets nicer, which should hopefully be soon. It's mostly my gut more than anything, I know I'm going to have some flab there but lifting should help a little bit I hope. Better to be healthy with some flab than fat as shit with stretch marks like I currently have.

>>6260856
Of course, keep going at it. Don't ever get discouraged, you'll be thanking yourself down the road.

>>6260856
"I'll probably do it when it gets nicer"

No you won't, you realize working out will warm you up in a matter of minutes. Just do it.

>>6260877

Will do. I had moments when I was younger where I would work out for a few days and try to get motivated but it never lasted. I'm a lot more mature now and I know I can stick with it.

>>6260888

You're wrong, I will do it. Lifting weights is both more enjoyable and easier for me than the treadmill. I took weight training classes in high school so I already know proper exercises and techniques, it's just too fucking cold out man. Call me a pussy if you want, but don't try and tell me what I am and am not going to do.

>>6261115
Come on. Get your fat ass out there

>>6261123

When it's above freezing temperatures I will.

>>6260534
Yep, RIP anon

>>6259825
I was 155 this time last year, I'm 195 right now.

I don't really know how, I don't eat very much. It's like if I even look at food I gain 5 lbs.

>tfw on a cut for dat 9% BF
>on EC stack

Nigga I don't even feel hunger despite working and lifting weights.

I literally force feed myself that 500cal protein shake and about 900-1000cal of food.

>>6261158

you're eating more than you think unless you have cushings or something

and no, it's not hashimoto's

i have that and I gained like 5lbs before I was diagnosed and my doctor said that it tends to make people gain ~5-10% of their body weight

I was overweight but have been losing it slowly. I failbulked when I was a teen and got up to 200. I'm around 155-160 now 5 years later. 5'8.

>>6261169
Well I do drink a lot of beer.

>>6261182
Well, there you have it.

>>6261162

homie, why arent you doing the ECY stack?

Yohimbine HCl supposedly blocks alpha 2 receptors which inhibit the loss of fat when you dose at .2mg/ kg of body weight.

>5'11" at 250 lbs.
>tfw trying to lose weight but forced by university to pay for a cafeteria meal plan

at this point I'm just gonna eat 1200 calories of oatmeal, salad and whey at my dorm and take caffeine pills and drink only green tea and black cofee

I'm obese. 300 lbs at 6ft. I'm not a huge planet because I have god tier fat distribution. I just like to eat and am lazy. I don't care that it's unhealthy and I'll die early, I love food too much.

>>6261309
People who go on prolonged extreme deficits like that usually succumb to extreme binging habits. Hunger is instinctual, don't fuck with it. Lose weight the proper way

I honestly can't remember ever being skinny
>feelsbadman.png
I've gone through lot of periods of losing weight but it hasn't stuck. I think the lowest I've been (since I've stopped growing) has been 230, when I was more actively working out and trying to lose weight.
Clearly gained it back, more recently cut down a lot of the fat simply because stopped eating all the goddamn time, actually lost most of my appetite all together, and was busier with school and work. Now I fell into a rut, living back at home and do a whole lot of nothing and eating crap food again.

230 and 6'2". down from 280.

i attribute a lot of the weight loss to pre-diabtes/insulin insensitivity. i've barely dieted or exercised.

i can't process glucose very well, so i just piss it out. i bet my urine is as sweet as pancake syrup.

and here's something shitty: i'm losing tons of muscle. i have a 125 pound barbell i used to be able to lift and toss around like a baton.

i can't even lift it once anymore.

i also look like carl on his south bronx parasite diet.

Have you heard a shower, washing your hands after your done with touching equipment and changing into a fresh pair of clothes after going to the gym fuck boy? Why don't you just ask someone in charge to get people to clean that shit

>>6261125

god you're so fucking stupid. its been winter from october to probably now late march or early april

7-8 months man. i cant stand this shit anymore. i do jog, just not when its sub 40

I had been doing so well. I lost about fifteen pounds. But then my mom had surgery and I was taking care of her, and I started stress eating like crazy. And it just kind of snowballed. I think winter has something to do with it as well; it's been cold for so long that all I want to eat is carbs. Mostly it's just that my willpower has flown out the window, though.

Can't wait till everything thaws and I can go out on my bike again. (I'm not one of those insane people who will bike through snow.)

Not obese, but /bulimic/ here. I know that feel. I had been 13 days binge free before my last binge two days ago, I haven't stopped since.

Overweight? Maybe a pound or two.

I wouldn't say I'm heavily obese, but I'm overweight according to my BMI. I'm 5' 11" and I weigh about 13st 4lbs. I'd still like to lose weight though, it doesn't help that I just mindlessly eat when I smoke.

5'7" and 295 lbs.
I'm not one of those people that have been fat all their lives. I was a lean 135 lbs all throughout high school. I slipped into bad habits without realizing what was happening and I'm so goddamn uncomfortable in my slug of a body.

I'm scared now. I feel like this is my last chance, like if I tip over 300 there's no going back. I want to change but I keep failing, and each failure makes it that much harder to give it another chance because I expect the loss.

Anyone in here who has lost weight... do you have any motivation tips? What do you do to motivate yourself when you're on the brink of giving up? I know the workouts I should be doing, the amount of protein and calories I should be aiming for, I just need some way to motivate myself. Every time I do fantastic for about 3 months, then reward myself with a cheat day for being so good, and it turns into a cheat weekend and then a full week and then it's 5 months later and everything is back plus interest. Teach a pathetic fattie how to willpower, please. Somebody. I don't want to die of a heart attack at 40.

>>6264129

You clearly already know what to do.

Get into good exercise routine: start slow, build up.

Don't deny yourself for months. Have a cheat day every week- Friday, say.

Then, by the time you start to get really hungry, midweek, you only have a few days until a filling treat.

>>6264129
Grow a pair of fucking balls and do what needs to be done.

5'4"

Used to be 155lbs about 1 year ago

Down to 125lbs now, mostly from cutting out beer, coke and fast food. Swim once a week, so I guess that's helping. Fat people can kiss my ass

>>6259825

I'm actually at an acceptable BMI (22), but I still have a belly. I guess by "normal" they mean by American standards, so I'm probably a little overweight.

I just don't understand fat people.
I was a little chubby in middle school, lost it all in high school from track and kept it off throughout college by doing literally nothing. I currently live at 5'11 130lbs on a broke college student diet consisting of a double ramen dinner and an egg or two + some toast for breaky and I never feel a need to eat more outside of a bag of chips here and there. Just what compels you fatties to eat 3 large meals a day AND snack all the fucking time?
I get it if you don't want to exercise, I love sitting on my ass playing games all day, but seriously just fucking eat less.
>inb4 hurr durr that's only cuz u started skinny!
Nah. My first roommate was a big asian dude, 5'9ish 200+ and got into healthy bmi range in about 2 semesters without any more exercise than casual basketball with friends every month or so by following a similar plan, Only difference is he was actually trying to lose weight, so instead of eating ramen he had lots of veggies. Still much easier than you dips make it out to be.

I'm at 138~
I'm a recovering anorexic, so I imagine I know a lot of the feels you fat fucks have.
I hope you all die.
Peace.

>I currently live at 5'11 130lbs on a broke college student diet consisting of a double ramen dinner and an egg or two + some toast for breaky and I never feel a need to eat more

been trying to eat healthier, more green veg just boiled or steamed but fuck fatty foods are still so delicious
can't give up dat cured meats

1,76cm - 81kg
Down from 104kg in 19 months.
Used the intermittent fasting trick of keeping cals below maintenance.
Cut back on alcohol.
Started bodyweight training last October.
Target weight for summer: 75kg

Could be further along, but I'm trying to find some kind of balance, which won't make me kill myself - some way of nutrition and exercise routine I'll hopefully keep for the rest of my life.

>>6260143
>religion hate is nonsense
>fat people are dumb

you're wrong in both cases

I have no idea whether or not I qualify as fat or just chubby. I'm like 5'3 and I think I weigh 146lbs.

yohimbine plus ephedrine is a dangerous combo. also yohimbine is useful only for people with areas that tend to have "stubborn fat", it's not for everyone.

>Nigga I don't even feel hunger

ec stack hunger suppression is mostly placebo. ephedrine has a really short half-life, so even taking it 3 times per day it still doesn't stay in your blood for long. i took eca and when i started dropping below 12% hunger came like a mofo, it always does.

>>6264129
cutting while a fatass is extremely easy. i only slip on my cuts and start having cheats or refeeds or whatever you call them after i drop below 13% bf or so, up until then I don't even feel hungry. i went from 130kg/286.5lbs down to 90kg/198lbs in a year, been fluctuating in the 1x% bf ever since

>Every time I do fantastic for about 3 months, then reward myself with a cheat day for being so good

>i stayed sober for about 3 months, then i rewarded myself with a bottle of whiskey for being so good

are you retarded? you don't see what's wrong here? until you drop back to human size you shouldn't even be thinking about cheat days

i'm overweight, but people say i'm fine, maybe they are trying to be nice when they say i'm just a big guy

old people i know say i don't need to lose weight and that i eat like a bird

>>6266916
>people say i'm fine
the only point where people will start telling you you are fat is when you reach hamplanet status and they legitimately start worrying about your health. otherwise they'll just be polite, because they see your obesity as a cosmetic issue and not a health issue (assuming you're skinnyfat). and since it's generally rude to comment on such things, don't expect someone to do so

I'm about 6' 0" and maybe a few lbs under 300 now. I'm nearly 40 and on the 8th of this month my BP was 200/120. The anxiety was horrendous and I had to go to a walk in clinic on the 19th. I was freaking out and couldn't handle the BP being so high.
With some meds and not being able to eat much (plus a little exercise) I've lowered it some. I can't get to my regular doctor until next week. Hopefully, I can get on some better medication and some anxiety meds so I can work out properly.

Eat food you cook for yourself and stay away from processed shit. You'll still be able to eat and by avoiding processed garbage you'll decrease your sodium intake. HBP sucks big time and can fuck you up mentally. I didn't know what was going on and couldn't make it to work because I was so scared. Now, I'm neet and fat with high blood pressure. The anxiety has been daily event since the 8th and it's exhausting.

>>6259825

210 pounds. I need to loose 100 but I wanna move out first. I can't do anything with my parents around

>>6267400

Eat whole grains with every meal and try to swap out some meat for beans. Also vegetables and fruits. Plant-based eating helps lower your blood pressure and also comes with a lot of potassium

210 pounds and 5'1, been overweight since 4th grade. I blame it on surgery I had that year. Had to stay in bed for months on end, gained 20 or 30 pounds pretty easily.

I haven't been gaining weight for the past four years. I stay consistently under 220 but over 200.
I barely eat and I eat pretty healthy but the problem is I am a complete shut-in. Last year I left my house less than 10 times, probably less than 6. I don't exercise so I stay chubby.

I plan on moving out of my folks place and going to college within the next year. They're holding me back with their helicopter parenting. I wanna eat how I want and go out when I want but they don't allow it. I wanna get into jogging but they won't let me go out at 7 AM by myself.

68kg, 5'9" Male 21.

I'm fucking fat, but I've lost 5kg so far this year. Aiming for ~55 perhaps.

>>6267483

Thanks anon. I've been trying to do that and have cut out all processed crap. I'm not eating much because the BP was so high and the anxiety a shit.
I gotta make serious dietary changes and incorporate more exercise. Because fuck this hbp and the anxiety. I want to feel normal again.

lost 45 kg, still chubby

>>6265062
i'm sorry but that's not skinny fat that's just plain fat. do some crunches nigga.

I'm 5'6 and 180 now. I used to weigh just under 200 a couple of years ago and then dropped down to 165. I was stuck at that weight for a long time and then kinda gave up on losing any more.

I want to go down to 145 and will start in about a month when I get back from my travels. 35 lbs, will I be able to do that in 6 months? I'm probably not going to have a job for a while after coming back so I'll fully concentrate on doing a lot of cardio.

I've never been at a healthy weight, I've pretty much weighed too much since my second day of being alive (that's a story on its own). I think it's time to change that now as I'm going to be entering my 3rd decade pretty soon.

>>6264129
fuck motivation, just develop a habit or routine

the hardest part is to start. schedule when you eat/workout every single day and have patience. weigh yourself every 10 days and you will see progress if are consistent and patient.

i'm your height and my weight fluctuates every year. i've found i eat sometimes because i'm bored and have nothing to preoccupy myself. when i'm starving like an african child and i've already had my maximum calories for the day i just chug water (which makes me go to the bathroom every 10 minutes; but it's worth it).

some tips for you is focus on making better choices at the grocery store. never shop on an empty stomach. drink A LOT of water. at your weight, you don't have to kill yourself exercising but it does help. even light walking and stretching will help immensely in the long run. losing weight is 75% diet, 25% exercise (roughly).

good luck, anon.

Shit sucks. I keep telling myself I am super prone to panic attacks and its probably that (I had a full blood workup in June and it was completely fine), but jesus if I dont lose weight soon. Already counting those calories/doing DDPYoga and walking. PLUS I just spent 45mins on Sunday shoveling 7in of snow+ice so if I was going to have a heart condition it would have manifested itself at least slightly then.

Honestly writing that shit out was cathartic
Did some googling and it turns out that anexity/stress/panic can lead to hypertension, and that as long as I am not going into hypertensive spurts all day without provocation I am probably fine.

>probably

> tfw 5'6" and have tdee of 1900kcal and cam only eat 1400kcal a day

>>6268632
either youre lazy as fuck or emaciated if your TDEE is 1900 calories.

I'm about 230lbs. My career is programming, so I sit down pretty much all day. When I get home, all I do is sit down and finish work. I don't even eat much, its just a matter of getting myself to get up off the couch after a long fucking day and do exercise.

>>6268651
or a cute little girl

try opposite
49kg 173 cm
got to 49kg from 47kg over a month by forcing food. i like cooking and tasting but im just not into eating

>>6268657
Once you start exercising, you start having more energy, believe it or not. Your quality of life would increase dramatically, even if it's just light exercise.

>>6268657
Try to find some kind of exercise you legitimately enjoy.
I tell people irl that I lost weight by using an elliptical... really, I play Just Dance for an hour every day. If you put your heart into it you can burn a good ~450 calories in an hour. I know, it sounds really gay. But it's actually pretty fun and I work out harder and longer than I would if I were doing something boring like jogging on a treadmill.

Also you'll find you have much more energy throughout the day once you get into a routine.

>>6260150
>I don't get it. I'm down to 160lbs with 20 more to go and I feel great, why doesn't everyone do this?

Why did you get fat in the first place? Don't start getting high and mighty about other fatties just because you've lost 15 pounds fag. And since you've always been "chubby" you'll probably be one of the statistics that gains it back anyways.

The other day one of the mexican prep cooks pointed at my belly, said something in spanish and laughed.

I don't wanna be fat.

I used to be chubby in high school and in my early twenties but I've recently lost a lot of weight from biking and having a shitty stress diet of coffee, alcohol and whatever I can eat.

and it's doesn't even have to be about exercising and fitness. those certainly help, but when it comes to weight loss the first and most important step is being objective and honest about your eating habits. i started recording everything i eat in a food diary last july, and have slowly curbed my daily caloric intake from something like 3500 calories down to 2000 and went from 240lbs to 200lbs in 7 months (and i'm still losing weight week to week). you never really realize how fucked up your eating habits are until your presented with a history of it for you to see plain as day. the key changing that is making accountability a part of your routine and holding yourself to set standards.

5'9 159 pounds
Have a rather narrow waist / all my fat storages in my belly so I look fatter than the scale tells.

>>6260183
>If you sit down to a plate covered in vegetables and dont feel like eating it you aint actually hungry
But I always do feel like eating it
there is almost never a time that someone could not place a plate of food in front of me that I would not eat it

What's up with that

>>6259825
who /tooskinny/ here?

>6271487

You gotta make smart food choices then, you can eat a lot but choose the low calorie option
do you know a whole head of cauliflower has only about 200 calories? Think about how that looks on your plate.

I used to be a big servings guy, and would always be hungry, its was perpetual cycle of gorge, stretch the stomach, get hungry, stretch repeat

After a little whiole eating smaller portions my stomach must shrunk back to a smaller size because eating the same portions as before wasnt enjoyable.

It does take discipline and i did feel hungry for a couple weeks, but ive learnt to accept the small feeling of hunger as a companion and reminder that im healthier, honestly, there i much prefer the feeling of hunger than being full, i just do it anymore.

an nah im no anorexic manlet, im 5'10, 175lbs and have lived off 1500 calories a day for over a year, i fit and strong, lift 3 days a week and run 5 miles twice a week

dude right fucking here. I am so insecure with being skinny its not even funny. I would kill to be a little overweight. I want to slit my throat every day because all I see are women with bigger arms and frames in general than me. Plus I'm always cold as shit. Fuck being skinny

>>6259825
>>6271636
I'm not too skinny, I'm actually pretty good.

5'6" at 130 is not bad at all.

But I'm skinnyfat. When you don't work out and eat like shit, but you're a skinny dude, you're just lumpy and have titties

>>6260373

Living in colder climates makes you loose weight, because your body uses more energy to stay warm. I shiver for 15 minutes of my 25 minute drive to work. It was 16 this morning and it's the warmest morning I've seen in 3 weeks.

>Good advice for weight loss
Keep a regular eating schedule, and a regular sleep/wake cycle. Plan your meals out for the day, make sure you incorporate lots of fruits and veggies. Avoid low fat/fat free/ etc, as those usually replace fat with sugar (and fat doesnt make you fat, sugar does).

>Bad advice for weight loss
OTC meds that will stop you from eating are:

Benzedrex - Remove cotton, soak in a shot glass fulled with soda or lemonade, take shot.

Pseudoephedrine: You need to ask the pharmacist for the stuff behind the counter, because the stuff on the shelves is phenylephrine (different chemical, no more effective than placebo in clinical trials). Take 3 every 3-4 hours as soon as you wake up.

i bet you faggots dont even know how to eat right

if you believe any of these lies about health/nutrition you're a retard:

>fish oil is good for you
>polyunsaturated fats (including omega-3s) are healthier for you than saturated fats
>sugary foods (such as orange juice) are bad for you/make you fat
>fatty fish should be eaten often rather than sparingly/never
>'complex carbs' (ie starch, pure glucose) is a superior source of energy than sugar (glucose + fructose)
>fructose is toxic to the liver
>beans and legumes are as good of a source of protein as meat and should be eaten often
>white meat is better for you than red meat
>you need above-ground cruciferous vegetables for a healthy diet
>it's perfectly OK to eat undercooked/raw above-ground cruciferous vegetables
>there is nothing wrong with eating soy
>avocado is a healthy fruit and should be eaten a lot
>margarine is healthier/less toxic than butter
>chocolate is a junk food
>caffeine is bad for you
>carbs are not an essential macronutrient
>salt/sodium is bad for you even in small amounts
>cholesterol is bad for you, even in small amounts and will clog your arteries
>you can avoid eating animal foods and still have a healthy, well-balanced diet
>you're generally better off taking a multivitamin that you can buy at the grocery store than not taking one
>dairy is inherently bad for you

Have you read any of Jeffrey Steingartens work? He touches upon many of your truths, but the awesome thing is that he did it over a decade ago, well before the current popular wave of 'diet debunking'

i dont get your hate of fatty fish, i dont advocate fish oil as a supplement, or any supplement unless you have a diagnosed deficency and cant get enough from food alone, but fatty fish is boss

and yeh, drinking orange juice, nah thanks, too many calories and minimal nutrition, you get more vitamin c from a potato

>>6273089
>>and yeh, drinking orange juice, nah thanks, too many calories and minimal nutrition

The point is carbs and magnesium, vit c is good too. Also suprisingly 1L of orange juice has 7 grams of protein.

>>6273089

I was replying to the post above me, dont know what happened

>>6273091

You get enough carbs everywhere else, and with a lower glycacemic value

plenty of magnesium in many vegies, and you get fibre too

fruit juice is a dead zone, good as a semi healthy treat but not ideal nutrition

>>6273093
>glycacemic value

Useless. If you followed the glycemic index as to what to eat you're going to eat a fucking retarded diet.

http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=nutrient&dbid=75

1 cup of has 3 grams more of magnesium than 1 cup of spinach. What is easier to eat? It's quite obvious.

>fruit juice is a dead zone, good as a semi healthy treat but not ideal nutrition

Lol, great carb source, great magnesium source. Fruit juice is great.

>>6273101
I didnt say anything about following a glycacemic diet, but its an important factor to consider when deciding you nutritional sources, especially for diabetics

3 grams more magnesium? I think you have a unit error, and your link makes no mention of oranges or orange juice

>Great source of carbs

Ok lol

>>6273122
Just fucking google it
>One cup of raw orange juice contains 27.28 mg of magnesium

>>6273127

OK buddy, I did 'just fucking google it', but here is a tip for you, if you are trying to prove a point, actually prove it, dont fucking allude to it and provide evidence to the contrary.

First, the units where are discussing are milligrams, not grams, you fucking halfwit

secondly, 27mg? Really? You need around 300mg per day.
OK THEN, DRINK 10 GLASSES OF ORANGE JUICE.

>>6265062
What the heck, how tall are you? I've never seen someone look so skinny yet so chubby at the same time.

>>6273160
OK THEN, EAT 10 CUPS OF SPINACH
>it works both ways

>>6273190

you are trolling right? Cos u cant be this stupid

>>6273190
Orange juice = 27mg Mg
1 cup spinach = 156mg Mg

Nigger, youve gone full retard

>>6268651
nope

>>6260523
I'm so sorry for you anon, you are sweet to say that.

>wow, i feel pretty hungry.
>if i try to starve myself i'll lose weight like some anorexic highschooler
>binge eat crap 2 hours later

I'm pretty fat, but it's mostly because I drink so much beer and not because of the stuff I eat, I don't eat much junk food or snacks.

tfw jacked as fuck

u mad I spend 10 hours a week in the gym and go home and fap to sissy hypno? ya u mad

;_;

euro fag here
I'm a girl and my measurements are bust 100 cm waist 86 cm hips 110 cm and I am 152 cm tall. I am currently shedding some weight for health reasons, sometimes I feel like a cow and some others I feel quite good. BMi wise I think I might be a bit overweight but its not as tragic as some other people so I feel like shit when I feel bad about myself even thought there are others who have it worse. What can I do for my self esteem?

>>6273185
I'm 6'4, I have a big stomach but skinny everywhere else, i'm starting to lose the gut by only drinking water.

235lbs and dropping. What's a good weight to aim at? 170? 150? I haven't a clue.

>>6276590
>What's a good weight to aim at?

I figured you'd have to be pretty tall to be proportioned in such a way. Good luck with the weight loss.

the benefit of cooking is that I get to eat what I made.

I never understood people who eat until they throw up though, throwing up is really fucking unpleasant.
