  • If you're talking about fat then sure eat lots in surplus of your daily intake. But if you are talking about building muscle then you will need to workout while taking adequate protein and eating in surplus. Whey protein are just cheaper than buying meat, but food with high protein are things like white meat, red meat, soy…
  • Hi, I would love to me your friend add me :) motivation goes long way
  • Hey mate, I am Jeno from Darwin, NT. I can be part of your motivational friend :) add me!! You seem very keen on this journey.
  • congratulations !!! :) keep going
  • Hii I am also 19 going 20 but a university student, so there is something in common. My first advice for you is to invest in a kitchen scale - digital, take a before photo and do some body measurements such as waist, arm, thigh, neck and hips etc. Basically to lose weight, you have to be in a caloric deficit of your TDEE…
  • feel free to add me :) we can support each other
  • Welcome to mfp :) make sure you get a digital kitchen scale and weigh everything, take a before photo and take some body measurements such as waist, neck, arm, thigh etc. Basically to lose weight you have to eat below your TDEE, where a deficit of 500 calories should be the maximum. Be creative with the food you eat, make…
  • Always take your body measurements, arm, waist, neck etc. You can also use those measurements to measure your body fat percentage and create a goal for yourself such as if you want to see your abs, aim for 9-10% body fat percentage.
  • if you are talking about cold cuts then there is roast beef, roast pork and beef silverside :) they are all high in protein, low in fat and basically no carbs. As for meat then definitely chicken, kangaroo steak (aus), lean cuts of beef etc.

  • Basically if your calories are under your TDEE, overtime you will lose weight, try not to go more than a deficit of 500 calories per day, dont want to damage your metabolism. Also you will also notice that your weight will fluctuate, do not become concern as it's normal. Everyday our water weight is different. But what you…
  • *puts hand up* add me bro, willing to help and be pals
  • Sure you can :) I am not doing keto diet, I had always done iifym (if it fits your macro).
  • Sorry this might get a bit confusing but what you need is something called carb backload day. Your body will no matter what adjust to the diet you are on and that is when you plateau such as now. Bodybuilders when they cut such as what I am doing to extremely low body fat do not depend on cardio or full caloric deficit.…
  • Welcome to the community :) we are all here for each other
  • Ketoooooo diet !!!!
  • Basically weight loss is all about caloric deficit and your body is very smart. To make this understandable basically your body will not burn 'fat' straight away, it will first hit your carbohydrate storage so that is from your blood then your tissue. By maintaining a caloric deficit and right amount of macronutrients,…
  • Hi, xcalygrl is right, your goals are complete opposites. If you want to get toned, you will have to give your body the ingredients it needs to synthesise your muscle fibres and that is protein. To build muscle you basically have to 'damage' it first by putting it under stress, this causes it to repair and grow, hence why…
  • Hi!!! I am currently on my cutting phase atm, we are all on the same pathway here. I have been through heaps of weight gaining phases (bulking) and fat burning phases (cutting). As a university student in the anatomy and physiology field, we believe every macronutrients, protein, carbohydrate and fats are important. I…
  • It's usually normal for you to feel hungry after workout as your blood glucose storage becomes depleted plus some of your tissue glycogen. Your body is smart and its mechanism wants you to replenish your glucose level, hence you feel hungry. One of the best post-workout foods I consume are greek yoghurt and maybe can of…
  • absolutely fine to eat before sleeping, been doing it throughout my cutting phase xD
  • I can surely help :)
