When will they learn.
Im losing weight at 2600 cal and im 5'7. Why would I go that low?
>>36496010
What's your weight senpai?
>>36494797
very beautiful

84 kg
My TDEE is ~3400 calories. Hopping on the bulk train puts me up to near 4000. Cutting I can eat the average persons 2000 a day and still be at an over 1000 calorie deficit.
>>36496118
Read the sticky. Calculate your tdee using your height, weight, and weekly exercise amounts
>>36496141
Eating 3400 cals a day must be fun
>>36494853
What is that?
>>36496177
Currently trying to clean bulking. It's just so much goddamn food.
I'll admit, I get a bit dirty now and then
>>36496141
My TDEE is conservatively 3000 calories, but cutting at 2000 doesn't seem right. Feels like I'd just stay fat, so I've been cutting at ~1500 cals w a high protein diet.
>>36496177
I eat 6300 cals a day to bulk
>>36496149
If that anon is losing weight, why the fuk should he change anything?
>>36496200
Get dirty and limit your meat intake. Eating more plant based stuff will let you keep eating without feeling disgustingly full like meat does. Or just make chili or something
>>36496231
You are eating way too much
>tfw I'm strongman
>tfw eating less than 11000 would make me lose weight
>all these 3-4k skellys
Feels good

Been making gumbo over basmati rice a lot. That and a lot of fish, but staying away from tuna and swordfish

Off-topic question, Do you guys calculate your TDEE using the calculator in the sticky or do you use a more accurate calculator? And how accurate is the sticky calculator?
>>36496858
I'd rather not see his body thank you
>>36496962
Use tdee on Reddit sticky
>>36496962
No calculator is perfect for each individual, and if you want to be most accurate you should track all your calories and average weight across weeks.
>not under 1000 cals a day
what, you not on steroids or something?
>>36494797
when will they learn
>losing control of your life so badly that you have to cut in the first place
>>36498382
So you're the dumbass who advocates recomping.
Bulk/cut is much more efficient pls fuck off
>>36499849
Started SL and went on a cut on 1500kcal, progress is good so far, my TDEE apparently is around 3500/3600. Is this too much ? It's not like I can build muscle while on a permacut, it's just about preserving some of what I have, is it easier to go fat>skinnyfat>ottermode>clean bulk and losing musle mass at first rather than cutting slower?
girl shit
5'8, 157lbs.
TDEE calculators inexplicably put me around 1900-2300 cals despite having a sedentary job (Though I do work out at least an hour 6 days a week, weightlifting + 10-30 minute cardio 5 days, 1 60 minute cardio day).
Been at it for a couple months now, haven't lost a pound. Granted, I got more muscle, but it doesn't seem like i've lost any fat at all. I highball all my caloric estimates too.
Average day of food
1/2 cup oats or 1 container plain greek yogurt 150-200 cals
1 Banana - 50 Cals
Spinach Salad w/1 egg, small bit of crumbled bacon, 1 serving olive oil dressing - 200
1 Chicken Breast - 300 Cals
1-2 cups broccoli - 100 calories
Misc other vegetable - 100 cals
1 Scoop protein shake in water - 150 cals
Total - 1100 cals
With the estimate that 3500 cals = 1lb of fat, I should have at least dropped a few by now. Even accounting for bad counts.
What am I doing wrong?
>>36494797
Who's that salmon dammin'?
>>36502850
BF% estimate puts me around 18% BTW with calipers and shit. Absolutely disgusting.
>>36502867
Did you start supping creative right when you began cutting? maybe you have a massive water retention probem due to supplements or salt intake.
>>36502850
Sounds like you're really lowballing how many calories some foods have.
A banana is like 110 cal.
>>36502942
Even accounting for several hundred cals worth of variation on meals that still come out to around the same, I should still be hundreds short of TDEE. And considering I"m gaining muscle, that shouldn't even be possible on a cut.
>>36503101
Have you at all tried to alter your routine?
Like the other ANON said you're most likely counting calories wrong
Do you have a food scale?
