- Thats good so i guess maybe your body is in ketosis possibly.. Thats good. l guess whole foods are way better. Too much crap in those packaged foods. -

Sorry to say that what you eat has almost no effect on weight loss. It's all about how much you eat. There was a university professor that taught nutrition and as an experiment and proof to his students he went on a several month diet where all he ate was junk food. Chips, icecream, and candy. As he thought, as long as he…

What the heck ! are you serious. Thats insane. But i guess it is better to eat healthier but wow thats surprising that it doesnt effect your weight loss really.

I'd have to agree here. At the very least, get to your goal weight or a hair below it, and/or lose the visible fat you want to lose first. It'll take 10x longer to lose the fat while in recomp, and it'll probably not go away much at all in a bulk. I went 5 lbs below my goal weight then slowly worked my way up to…

Thats good ! have you tried body weight exercises ? like planks and stuff aswell to strengthen your core ? ..

30lbs by summer? Sorry but no. That would be a massive deficit and people are almost always wrong on their estimates as to how much they have to lose unless they are going off of accurate body fat percentages. Say we consider June to be summer. You have 2 months. The recommended is 1lb lost a week. 4lbs a month. At a…

Pizza yesterday haha. hmmm but i think chocolate even though its not really proper food.

Thats sick. You probably were pretty happy haha. l want to one day at least get down to like 7 percent body fat maybe like for a couple days even lol. But like hopefully when i lose weight i can stay around 10 - 12 percent body fat. Do you do any exercises for your obliques.

Well thats really good. l actually checked it out ! Tnx for letting me know. So what is your goal ? i also saw that your sagging skin went away a bit right. Do a lot of people get that even if they are under 100 lbs overweight ? ..when they get small.

Haha. well thats good ! hmm gives me more motivation. Tnx ! ill increase my protein intake. especially today i dont think i got much in. How much have you lost ..

Well i want to get back to my old weight around 128 and last time i checked my weight like few weeks ago it was about 183. So id say minimum 45 and then after that maybe another 15. Hm i guess i dont have to do much cardio then. maybe just eat more healthy and continue weight training with little cardio.. ? ..

Haha well thats good. welcome ; )

Ohh thats good. So you didnt really rush it. l guess it can be much healthier to do that. did you notice your abs and muscles showing more. haha must have.

Thats actually a good idea. How long do you usually cut for. Thats good keep it up ! The grind dont stop haha.

@KatieJane83 tnx btw !

l guess i should look at it that way. maybe im trying to rush things.

Thats great ! how long did it take you. l want to hopefully be shredded within a year. at least by summer hopefully drop about 30 lbs if that is even possible.

Yea i think i should do a bit more cardio today then i planned to do. Yea especially when you have lower body fat % it does show more. l used to be about 128 and pretty small but like this time i want to gain muscle i guess if i do get down to about 130 again i can start building muscle then and focus more now on losing…

keep it up.

thats crazy !

Hahahahaha

Alright ill deff check it out thnx. how long were you doing it ? . .

- Im not really trying to bulk. yea just pretty much trying to get toned right now. maybe yea add a bit of muscle but just getting toned and then getting a lot of fat off.

- Yea i guess thats true. l know its better to like cut. ive been at a defecit at times but like for these last few days most days i have been. im trying to gain a bit of muscle while still on a caloric deficit. i lost some weight and noticed a bit of muscle growth very little a while back but then i ended up gaining again…

lol do you actually.

Oh true. Well planks take a couple mins if you did want to try. it does take some energy if you do it for a little bit but like you can start doing it for like 15 secs maybe then after a few weeks 45 secs. you might notice more strength in your core. But yea.

@sand86802 Thats true. l guess i should look at it that way. i did some ab exercises yday and walked and jogged a bit. Haha it is hard like yesterday there was a business lecture and a networking session at school after and there so much pizza. i had quite a bit but like after at night we went to a friends office and they…

i actually was yo yo dieting i guess idk. but like recently l told myself that ill try to reach 135 lbs im 183 i used to be about 128 about 5 years ago. so like im building muslce aswell. i dont just want to be skinny again. so i guess its been a few days that ive started again and actually want to try to lose weight by…

Yeah that was a few years back. Just got a crazy idea and went for it... It took me slightly over 4 hours and about 48h to be able to feel my legs again LOL I have been overweight and then obese all of my adult life and tryig to loose on and off but this time I want to make it stick. I have started MFP almost 3 months ago…

true. Hmm well i havent really been on trails there. It was just the road we walked down on all the way to the beach from the hill. l guess ill check some of the trails near the bluffs out online and see the maps. So what is your goal ?
