shrimp but then again, i eat bats 🤣🤣

i did just that. i ate anything as long as it fits my calories and macros. came down from 200+lbs down to 136lbs in 9 months. it kept me going because i knew nothing is off the table as long as i know when and how to put it in. now that i'm at my goal weight, i had to re-up my calories because lifting drains calories so…

doing 1 hour of body weight exercises everyday, or lifting 1 hour every day is more cost effective and time efficient, calorie and time-wise. edit: my job involves a full day of walking and going up and down things, and i was overweight. i only saw results when i started body weight exercises then lifting. there will come…

from 80kg (176lb) last october, to 62kg (136lb) this march. my new new target is to build muscle while maintaining my current weight.

moving around feels better with compression gear. specially if (my) body likes to store fat on the *kitten* and thigh areas 🤣🤣

more than 2 lbs a week is aggressive weight loss. personally, i lost an average of 3kg (6.6lb) per month. and i was doing 1 hour of body weight exercises everyday and maintaining at 1500 calories. no cheat or rest days. think about your target there now i'm just lifting every other day and eating at 1800 calories,…

if i wear compression leggings under shorts, does it count?

1lb per week ia pretty much on the average range. no issue there. stick with what works for you. it will keep you consistent

are we living in a simulation? how the hell could we prove/disprove this?

Filipino, but spent half my life outside the country. currently in malaysia

at any rate, OP can only do 2 things: 1) increase calorie burn by moving more, and/or 2) decrease calorie intake by eating less it's like getting beyond a plateau

what do you do to burn 2000 calories per day exactly? sounds like an overestimation

i like mine with chicken liver. and also the chicken and pork version

on the first week? visually, not much. but on the scale, it should be trending down week by week, if you remain consistent. on the next three months, you should notice your clothes getting baggier and loose, again if you remain consistent

i can totally relate to your journey, and i salute to your milestone. never falter my journey: 90kg (200lb) from june 2020 to 62kg (136lb) in march 2021.

just get within the healthy range of bmi first, then decide if it is healthy for you or not. most people say it suits them fine.

buy some dumb bells and a yoga mat online. download some workout apps. worked for me

just go for it, i suppose. you will find out what works and what doesnt along your journey. as for me, i lost 25kg (55lb) in 8 months. average at 6.9lb per month. it is not linear though, and you will lose more on the first few weeks than the last few weeks

calories but budget it in a way that still meets your macros. even the mfp standard macros (50% carbs/30% fat/20% protein) work.

🎉💯🔥

weekly, every saturday, after using the toilet and having a bath, but before eating. if it goes up 2 weeks straight, i lower my calories for next week

i figured out that budgeting calories is like budgeting money. you have to put a name on every calorie/dollar and see that it goes there.

i had been 70kg in my mid 20s, 80kg for the most of my adult life, peaked at 90kg, now maintaining just at 65kg. where's the set point in that?

how about "body recomposition" and " lean bulking", how do those work? how do they compare to "toning"? or are those repackaged mumbo jumbo too?

calorie counting is hard when you are just starting out. i experienced strong cravings and general laziness on my first MONTH of calorie counting. but i kept at it. when i finally got used to it, i added workouts and decreased calories. sometimes you are just thirsty. drink a glass or two of water and wait 10 to 20 minutes…

li'l banana 🤣🤣

mind if i check in? start weight: 90+kg (200+lbs), june 2020 *this was the last time i weighed myself before i found mfp last september. literally scared myself there recent weight: 62.7kg (138lbs), march 2021 weight lost: 27+kg (62+lbs) in 9 months average loss: 3kg/month (6.9lbs per month) plateau last january. either…

i am now size 32, but i keep my size 40 pants hanging in my closet. and my old belt full of holes that i made during weight loss. reminds me of the times that i cant tie my shoes anymore. and the times that i felt breathless going up to my apartment on the 5th floor. and the times that i can hear my loud heartbeat every…

i like the occasional burger too. so when i feel like it, i make it my pre workout meal. part of my daily calorie count. or if i go over for 1 day, i go below for the next few days to still hit the weekly goal. it's okay as long as it's not often, and you pull yourself back soon
