19 yo college student in germany
I assume you're a German, or are you another nationality in Germany?0 -
30 years old from California. Currently on weight loss. Started at 298 in May this year (my highest ever). When I stepped on the scale and saw that number I decided there was no way I would ever let myself get to 300+, so I started a new diet that same night and have done a pretty damn good job of sticking to it. Stopped consuming 99.9% of the amount of soda I used to drink (I've had maybe 4 cans total in the last 3 months) and stick with water everywhere I go. Also, not ordering/making fatasfatass portions is key along with better, less processed food in general. As of now I'm down roughly 40 pounds. Funny thing, I didn't realize how fat I was until now that I can tie my shoes comfortably. Crazy.
My main exercise so far has been walking/jogging on treadmills at the gym. I plan to hit the weights once I reach 250 which I imagine will be next week. Small goals seem to work for me.
Maybe a little more than was necessary for an introduction, but there you have it. Hello.0 -
Hey yall, from Cali, 6'1'' 205lbs-ish, trying to get my compounds up currently.
Doing a mixup workout i made: bill starrs 5x5 intermediate one week and one week doing a push pull split (focusing on compounds both weeks but with a lot more accessory on the second week).
Started working out at 18 cuz fatty 230lb. Got my diet under control, marathon training and lifting got me down to 170. Been focusing on bulking for awhile and I was up to 215 before my cut in spring. Been kinda ****ty on my diet but Im in the zone to cut and get that pack for the tail end of summer.
Im up and down cali all the time, if anyone wants to work out im down0 -
Sup /fit/izens
I'm 19 y/o Airman First Class - USAF
I haven't actually shipped out for basic or tech school year but I swore in and joined with rank, kinda a tubby boy who got out of shape once I quit sports, I am athletically gifted, Varsity freshman year of HS, played in the Little League world series, but just stopped playing sports in high school and ballooned to 200lbs, I'm 5'11" and I'm trying to get back into shape for boot camp, I'm cutting pretty hard right now, and in the last two weeks I've increased my running distance from .3 miles to .8 miles (in 5 minutes) so hopefully I'll be able to pass the PT test before I even leave! Any and all tips will be accepted GRACIOUSLY! Also, after bootcamp I'm in tech school for 4 months, so I'd love information on how to pack on serious muscle since I'll be working out every day after boot, and boot is basically just a forced cut.0 -
Hey there, 21 year old student from Ireland.
Right now I'm focusing on weight loss. I've lost a lot of weight before (last year) and was very close to my goal weight but I went through some depression and piled a lot of it back on. I'm determined to lose it all again though, but weight loss is really easy so I know I can do it.
So far I've lost 17 pounds in the last 3 weeks and am over half way towards my first goal weight.
I used to play a lot of sports when I was in secondary school (high school?) like rugby, basketball, gaelic football etc. I used to be quite slim but then I had surgery because of a condition from childhood, surgery fixed me but messed up my digestive system, the doctors told me I had to watch what I eat for the rest of my life because I'd put on weight a lot quicker now. I also had to stop playing sport until I finished school because of recovering from surgery and I seemed to lose all of my strength afterwards. That was when all of this started.
I imagine I'm going to be near my final goal weight by about christmas, and at that point I want to start building muscle and getting stronger again.
Sorry if that was too long for an introduction. Feel free to add me or whatever, look forward to seeing how you all progress.0 -

Uh, hey guys, I'm trying to tone out my body and just lose as much fat as possible. I don't really lift anything more than a 5kg dumbbell, but I would love to change that and lift 53kg (my weight).
You could try to talk to me, but I'm insanely awkward and just a beginner at fitness, I only started eating well and (kinda) working out consistently since June.
I'm pretty much just a lurker on both /fit/ and mfp.0 -

hi im kek, I work 3rd shift as a lamp inspector for Honda. I weigh around 120 pounds and am 5'10, I keep hearing i am underweight. I have no energy and if I am not working I am asleep, I sleep around 10-15 hours a day. I have no friends and my family never visits me
I am lonely and when I can't sleep I am bored. I feel miserable so I am trying to get into lifting to feel better

Hey, I'm Andy. 19 year old college student studying music and computer science.
I do a lot of running–around 30 miles a week, but still trying to slow bulk at around 300-400 kcal surplus.
Thanks for having me, I'm glad to be here!0 -
Hi everyone, I'm going to ****post my twitter in the hopes some will join me in conversation about DYELs trying to alpha up and fat people stories.

and damn sidekek, chug a gains shake before you go to bed. You'll be out of hungry skeleton mode in no time.0 -
Scoobeus, I have a hard time eating. I have been forcing myself to eat 2.8k calories the past week. I have read up on GOMAD and that sounds like it would kill me, so I'm hesitant to try it. What kind of shake do you suggest getting.
thanks0 -
Try cooking with bacon fat and/or coconut oil. Both have great flavors, have better lipid profiles than butter (and far better than man-made alternatives), and add calories like nobody's business,0

Hey guys
18 y/o 6'1'' (185cm) and 67kg (148lbs)
Doing SS and 3300kcal bulk at the moment.
Trying to escape from Bergen-Belsen.
Tracking calories has really helped me so far, if I don't think about what I eat I'll end up eating really little and in infrequent intervals.
May the gains be with all of you.0 -

Hello
My names Pat. I'm a 23 year old Animation student from Galway.
After a year of hard work I've gone from obese to overweight. Right now my goal is to run the London Marathon next year.0 -
Been hanging around for a while.
Basically I'm a med student that needed to lose about 13kg to be in the -81 weightclass in the sport of judo so I could keep studying medicine.
And I made it by having about 4x300 kcal meals per day. I was so happy when I made it, I was ripped! Getting comments from the girls and such.
Oh well, then I didn't knew how to make the shift from dieting to "lifestyle/stay lean all year 'round" diet and ended up gaining like 5 kg. I'm on my way to lose them again.
Damn, I just want a qt3.14 intellectual, glasses wearing, hipster, lit babe gf to have black and white indie movie like sex...0 -

Greetings fellow /fit/izens. I am an 18-year-old diabetic fatass. I'm down from 349 to 301 and I ain't slowing down anytime soon. Lately I've been feeling sucked up and weak so I'm definately gonna be hitting the gym as soon as I can sort out a membership and all that. Will be doing heavy bag workouts and bodyweight stuff until then.0
