Hey /ck/, should I give up on being a vegetarian? I keep getting called a fag or getting sarcastic responses but I've lost 6 pounds in the last week and a half.
>>7174812
Yes.
But you'll still be a fag
>>7174815
Because I'm OP right?
>>7174812
Have you considered how much of that lost weight was muscle?
>>7174812
Losing more than ~2 pounds a week is very very unhealthy, and can literally kill you. Not only is it hard on your body, its actually kinda hard to do by any means.
>>7174812
Losing 6 pounds that fast is bad for you, anon. A balanced diet rich in animal protein is important to burn fat without losing muscle.
>>7174824
It's just water weight desu
>>7174823
I honestly haven't but my gut has thinned out quite a bit also losing my moobs :/
>>7174812
Just don't tell anybody and keep not buying meat.
I do miss meat... but I've tried a lot of different methods of weight loss and this is the only thing that has actually worked.
I went vegetarian for health reasons, now I'm easing meat products back into my diet.
I lost 150 pounds in two years.
>>7174851
you should try working out.
>>7174851
eating fish and lean meat isnt going to sabotage your weight loss
>>7174851
If you just eat less, and exercise more, you will lose weight. This is a scientific fact.
The reason you're losing weight this way is because you're eating less calorie dense foods. Simply tracking your calories and staying under your TDEE on a week to week average will ensure you lose weight week to week.
Do whatever the fuck you want, just don't be a loud mouth or pain in the ass about it.
>>7174812
Stop being a whiny bitch and be better than everbody else by eating healthier than them. Btw dont be a bitch and become vegan
You should do what works for you but low carb diet was recently proven to be healthier and more effective than low fat diet so you can keep the benefits from meat and still lose weight

>>7176750
You are a moron, low carb is the worst you can do... in the long run you will only gain weight, you will feel like shit and you will have higher risk of diabetes if you consume a lot of animal protein
>>7176759
You're not arguing with me though. You're arguing with a large study I just linked. Low carb was found to be better in both health and weight loss.

>I've lost 6 pounds in the last week and a half.
First, I call bullshit.
Second, eat what the fuck YOU want to eat.
Just don't be a fucking douche about it.
>>7176860
>cardiovascular risk factors like cholesterol
Immediately loses credibility.
>>7176860
>cholesterol
HAHAHAHA
also comparing what some old fart says to a large study. You can't win mate
>>7177285
You have to look for yourself and that isnt just an old fart you fucking moron. Go to his site nutritionfacts dot org ...
Btw everything he says is based on studies, how retatded are you anon?
>>7174824
Sir you are the dumbest of the fucks.
>>7176860
>MUH CHILESTORAL
>this is what fucking idiots actually believe
Jesus Christ, lack of intelligence abound.
>>7174812
No. The best way to get back at haters is to laugh at them when they take statins and insulin meds for the beetus, and then pee on their early graves.
>>7178035
Are you actually so dumb that you confuse your own cholestoral with cholestoral that you stuff in your body? God... all these confused bodybuilders actually believe their own delusional bullshit.
>>7178465
>cholestoral
Might want to invest in a spell-checker there, Doctor.
>>7178467
Like I care, its not my native tongue
>>7178553
>cholesterol isn't my native tongue
>>7178555
Do your best and forget the rest
>>7174812
here ya go nigger.
i started being a vegetarian and eventually vegan a while back and lost a lot of weight.
i later realized my heightened awareness of what i was eating caused me to inadvertently lose weight due to intermittent fasting.
tldr - if you want to lose weight, it literally does not matter what you eat, as long as you don't overeat.
>>7174846
but how can you be a vegetarian if you don't tell everyone that you're a vegetarian
>>7178669
This.
Because I wanted to lose weight, I started focusing more on what and how much I was eating, and so subconsciously started skipping seconds at dinner and having smaller portions and less food throughout the day. I lost weight.
I then stopped focusing so much on food because I became busy with life and I gained weight again.
Your most likely already eating a relatively balanced and healthy diet right now anyway, most people are. Its more a case that you are probably eating too much or too often.
>>7174812
water weight, you could lose that much in that time doing anything
>>7177903
Rapid weight loss is extremely taxing on the body.
Its fact
>>7178672
Not OP, but was a closet veggiefag for well over ten years in the Midwest. It's not easy, everyone finds out eventually when you never want to go out to eat or you always just order a soda when at a restaurant. Once someone finds out they'll announce it to anyone within earshot, then at best you're 'that guy' who everyone has to plan around and accommodate.
>>7180561
Iktf
good thing I don't go out often
>>7180557
so is being fat
