Let us see your progress
I'm a former fatass was 247 lbs and started lifting while slowly cutting on just a little deficit. I'm still very fat and propaply going to cut for 2 more months. 209 lbs. Right now I am cutting on 500 kcal deficite. Do you think its time to go for a bigger deficite?
>>37703825
Here a pic from my back
brahs im stalling real hard
will it be stupid to drop to 1400 calories for a few weeks just to get this cut over with?
u need to go to the gym as well not just eat less
lol "former"
>>37703975
no do it
>>37703825
Blaha is that you?
>>37704019
>>37703825
Down to 80.8kg now, at 182cm.
Will drop a few kgs still then eat a bit more to focus on actual strength training without feeling lethargic with minimal gains.
>>37703975
Do it.
>>37704051
Keep dropping
>>37704051
I know that feel bro. Keep going it will take time but will be worth it.
nice progress
>>37704051
Be careful with that loose skin and stretch marks tho
November 245lb >current 170lb 5'11''
0 loose skin, i have stretch marks tho, thats ok, they have been there for years
>>37704249
just wow your progress is impressiv. How long did it take you?
>>37704249
bait
>>37704249
well yeah the stretch marks are made when you gain weight
gj tho
So I am currently cutting, and it has been going really well. However, I noticed that my boobs have gotten much smaller and less round. How do I maintain my boobs while cutting? Any tips?
>>37704249
Could we get your thoughts on feminism pls.
>>37704343
let me massage them everynight with coconut oil
Cutting since March, 190lbs down from 225. I can't tell if I'm stalling or if I'm ok a 1lbs/week loss rate. Any advice for me?
>>37704051
You look kinda like Zachary Quinto desu
>>37704051
You look like shit
>>37704401
dyel
>>37704401
225-190 = 35lbs
how do you weigh 35lbs?
>>37704401
Keep going, 1-2 lbs a week is alright.
And keep hitting the gym.
>>37703833
how tall are you?
>>37704457
I'm 2'4" king of manlets
>>37704478
Thanks I know, it just sucks when I stop seeing progress
First pic was after my first decent bulk, middle pic is current after cut for summer and showing off aesthetics in beach town full of drunk tourists. 6'2 190
Festivals incoming next month.
>>37704554

>how can I keep sacks of fat while losing fat
Bait or very, very stupid girl
>>37704656
you're living the good life
>>37704670
nice
>>37704656
Fuck off, Chad
>>37704683
heh not really, this is the first summer in 3 years where I'm actually having enough free time to travel and party
>>37704687
no u
>>37704656
If that really is you I'd kill myself for losing all those gains. You looked so much better before.
My Progress so far. Down from 315lbs to 248 at 5'11"
>>37704051
Shave your face.
On phone but here it is so far.

188cm
115ish kg
March
>>37707428
good,now reach the sub 200 mark and become a human
>>37708387
Today
95kg as of this morning
>>37704656
looking good bro,goal body right there,gonna try to reach that a year after i get out of the army
>>37703975
persevere. You will breakthrough eventually just don't give up
progress in two months
Started at 112 kg in november
Down to 83 kg
Last 2 weeks i fucked up bad now i'm 86 again
This morning back on track, i'll make it.
70 kg objective at 177 cm
Started training at 84kg 6 months ago. Now at 93kg.
Muscles are noticeably alot bigger. Every lift has gone up. But I'm still looking slightly chubby.
Do I keep eating lots of good foods, keep upping my lifts, keep calories the same and eventually I'll just have muscle and look good? Or do I cut, watch lifts go down then build back up?
I'm so close to 2 plate bench, and I love eating 6 eggs for breakfast. But six pack would be nice desu senpai
>>37708520
Holy shit anon, nice progress. How did you do it? I'm currently on the same path but progress is slow as shit.
205 lbs to 155 lbs @ 6'1"
>>37705453
>I'd kill myself for losing all those gains
I compete in two sports and being that big helped me in neither. But each to his own.
>>37708660
Mirin brah gg
How much do you think i need to lose to be flat?
This is 64.5/142 at 178/5'10, read this part again...
Getting kinda tired of having to cut way lower than everyone else
>>37708399
Nice progress! Routine/diet?
>>37708500
do nipples get smaller with weight loss?
>>37708778
Routine is SS W/F/Sun, TKD T/T/Sat. Walk the dog every day, do a bunch of little bits of cardio here and here (push-ups, skipping, etc), my lungs are shit from 3 bouts of pneumonia, asthma and growing up in a pack-a-day household so any sort of dedicated cardio, like jogging or such, my lungs give out long before my muscles are even sore.
Diet is a super relaxed keto by chance; lots of veggies, lots of meat, no grains. I aim for about 1800cal a day, sometimes hit 1900. Don't count for extra exercises I do. Even allow for a square of Lindt and 1 can of Pepsi Max during the day. Apart from that, black coffee and green tea.
74 kg to 65 kg, 3 months
>>37708655
just track your calories. Calculate your tdee and make sure you eat at a deficit. I started at 1300 cals, then realized i don't have a tdee of a sedentary woman (used to lose weight too fast the first month) so i waised to 1600-1800 depending on phisical activity. I use myfitnesspal and a kitchen scale. Cook all your meals, no processed food. Lots of vegetables. Drink a lot of water.
Gym no necessary, i walk a lot with my dog (now running) and do some exercises at home with dumbells and free body weight.
You will screw up and fall, just make sure you stand up again every time.
Good luck bro
>>37708660
how long?
>>37703825
No progress pics right now but i started at 300 and am currently 245
My scale only goes up to 250 though so it's kinda innacurate. If i shift my weight to the left it goes down to 240 and if i shift to the right it goes up to 250
>>37704249
>>37704249
I don't like tats but can tats hide stretch marks? I have some and i would consider it
>>37704343
Just keep losing. Big tits are pointless on a fat bitch. Small tits on a skinny girl are way better
>>37708899
this is the week I will make it
thanks senpai
6'4" 260 -> 179 over 1.5 years

Idk whass happening with im 5'9 started cutting at 165 now im 158 all this in 3 days
water weight?
>TFW 182lb -> 173lb in past two months
>TFW can't wait to reach 160lb so I can slow bulk into eternity
5' 11 BTW.
Not gunna post pics cause I'm a hairy poointehloo.
>>37708500
>>37708771
Eat cleaner.
Low cals will drop fat but body composition doesn't fix instantly.
Lift and eat healthy.
I just want to say how much I love EC stacks. I was struggling to keep up my 1200kcal cut, on the stack I basically need to force myself to eat up to 1100kcal. No more hunger pangs and feeling distracted. It feels so good to not have my mind 24/7 resisting temptations.
>>37709517
Nice, looking better at 190 imo
Started in March at 255lbs
Sitting at around 230lbs in June
Plan to cut until 205ish
>been stalling for the last 6 months
>back on track and slowly starting to crawl down again
Starting was 374lbs, at exactly 300 now. Want to get down to 220~ by the end of the year.
>>37708399
Furious pete plz go
How much strength loss should I expect while cutting?
>>37711445
all of it.
84kg to 73kg 188cm
>>37708660
Isolate your core.
Do some weighted planks, weighted sit-ups with pause, toe to bar, etc. Just add them at the end of your workouts and it makes a massive difference.
Start doing a ton of chin ups and add some bicep work if you don't already do it. Seems like you don't do deadlifts either. Start doing them.
Fatty here, I'm cutting from 200 23% bf trying to get to 150 15% bf. Doing PPL 3 times a week and long cardio 3 days. Saw some pics and heard suggestions that doing SL or SS is better if i'm not doing the full 6 days of PPL.
Any opinions on this? Want to get ottermode sooner rather than later, trying to lift and diet seriously due to being a lardass who go dumped for chad and want that sweet feel again.
>>37708993
yeah, mine hide the stretch marks, they hurt extra to get them on top of them but whatever
>>37711469
Is this meme or real? I've been eating 1500 cal for the past few months and my lifts have plummeted, was getting worried I have bone cancer or something
>>37712146
you should try lifting senpai
Just two more weeks on this diet and I'll be lifting on a surplus for the first time in my life.
Started at 430 pounds, currently at 220. I've been using yohimbine for the last week and I'm dropping nearly 5 pounds a week - I guess when you store 3 times the fat of a normal human you have 3 times the amount of emergency fat reserves.
I fucked up though, I didn't even think to take a proper progress picture until I hit 315. Not much of a collage either, I'm waiting to finish this up before I take the last picture.
Keep it up, brothers. We're all gonna make it.
>>37712674
The lower in calories you go the more protein you need in your diet. At 1,500 calories you should really be getting about .8 grams of protein per pound of lean body-mass.
There's not too much danger in going lower as long as you significantly up your protein intake - you can manage 900 calories a day as long as you're getting 200 grams of protein, for example.
Granted, you start to feel like complete and total shit, and while you're muscle mass is sparred you lose a lot of strength due to CNS fatigue and lack of glycogen.
>>37712693
i upped my calories, hope to gain muscle
>>37704656
Noooooo Jesus OP your first pic is by far the best :( your abs are too pronounced now and you have transcended into cockroach belly territory
>>37711307
>every time I post a photo
Somebody redpill me on the famous EC stack. Is it a meme or does it actually work?
>>37714475
it works m8
it kills appetite
I'm never going to make it
>>37714510
How about fat loss ?
>>37714552
its slight, but it works.
>>37708893
Height?
>>37712146
lol
>>37704656
Stats? Miring
>>37714541
Jesus fuck mate, you run a marathon today?!
>>37714614
nah, im sure he has a fitbit that overadds calories as exercise lmao
>>37714541
Charge your phone.
What did you do to lose that many calories?
>>37704656
You either came off cycle or cut WAY too fast.
>>37708660
Damn, 155 is light, but whatever it takes, RIGHT BABE?
25 more lbs for me it seems.
>>37714614
>>37714630
>>37714626
I wait tables and worked a 12 hr shift, just lots of walking
>>37714475
Bumping for posterity.
>>37714626
those fitbits are nice for counting steps, but the calories burned is complete garbage, id be eating 4000 a day and expecting to drop weight if i trusted it.
>>37715763
my phones count steps pretty well, but yeah i had a fitbit and it says on average i would burn 5500 calories a day lmao
>>37709517
did you gain muscle while losing fat? can you tell more about progress? because i am just at the same road.
>>37707428
>5'10 and went from 315 to 263 here
Keep it up anon, we're gonna make it.
>>37708403
good luck breh
>>37713089
My body my rules ;^)
I prefer being like this, my aim was never to get as big as possible, I have other priorities
>>37714613
B320 D480 S420
>>37714654
your opinion is wrong but thanks for sharing
>>37715830
I gained strength until I hit about 215. Then lost it little by little. I have since spent 6 weeks at about 185 and the strength is coming back quite fast.
If you have any specific questions I'll try to answer
>>37704656
natty?
>>37716978
yes
>>37704656
Mirin. Sitting at 219 and abs are starting to show. How long was your cut?
>>37704249
Brother, I'm actually proud of you. I still remember the first time you posted a progress pic, a week in, saying you were bear mode.
I'm glad you've made it.
>>37717068
there's a little over a year between first and second pic, but the cut itself took about 6 months, I wasn't in a hurry
I'm at 160 right now, been cutting since February. I was pretty fat after I got out of the military.
>>37717278
Height?
>>37718083
Manlet 5'7"
I wish I were taller
>>37703975
no fatass. you're not stalling your just straight up lying bout the number your actually cutting. get a food scale and measuring cups, record EVERYTHING that goes in your fat gullet, stop cherry picking the deficit friendly entries in MFP, stop wining about the food you eat not being in MFP (make the entries yourself or record the component ingredients), no more fucking "cheat" days/"cheat" meals (those are bullshit!), etc etc. you want to progress you gotta be 100% objective, honest and OCD about how accurate your food is logged.
>>37717278
pretty gud progress bro
>>37718212
Thank you buddy, I want to eventually look like a 5'7" version of Christian Bale in American Psycho.
>>37718171
Don't let your mind dwell on it one bit. You look good and that's what counts. I'm a 6ft skinnyfat fag and would easily trade an inch of my height to not look like complete shit.
Can someone give a BF% estimate?
went from fatass mode to this now bulking
keep in mind this is very good lighting
>>37718196
This
>>37718811
Took this pic today, weighing in at 168 and yes I took it in the dark on purpose.
>>37718853
forgot stats, 5'9 143 lbs lol
>>37708660
Why aren't his abs defined? Looks like he dropped to the 8% body fat rank
>>37718903
because he is 155lbs at fucking 6'1
>>37704249
Holy shit, Mike. Nice work
>>37704343
Not much you can do about it rly, all the fitness models have implants for this exact reason.
>tfw was anachan and starved for years whilst maintaining tits
>tfw a few weeks of yohimbine + exercise +deficit shot me straight down to A cup
>tfw none of my bras fit any more
>>37708660
Fuck man, if that is 155 lbs 6'1'' (with non-zero muscle mass), I'm fucked. I'm 5'11'' 176 and I thought I'd be lean once I hit 150. Fuck.
How much will I fucking need to drop? 130?
I want to die.
>>37719397
I dont understand, you're currently 176 and are hesitant to drop down to 150 for fear of looking like leanbro?
Do you mind posting a current body pic?
what %bf to see abs?
I am at 26% now
6'2" 270 lbs
Never worked out until this month but apparently I have some muscle already
>>37709517
Very nicely done bro
>>37719549
Yeah there's no way you're 270 and 26% fb if you just started lifting. Try like 35
>>37719687
I had it measured today by my doctor with calipers
>>37716780
Are those 1RMs or 5 Rep numbers? Height /weight? Mirin hard
>>37719397
That guy has very little muscle mass and a small frame. You'll be fine dw.
>>37704051
Cute/10. Keep it up, you're gonna look hot af by the end of the year.
Also don't shave, stubble looks nice
>>37708771
Like other anon said, you need to eat cleaner... but you also need to do a lot of lifting and I'd also recommend cardio that is based on calisthenics, a la P90X kind of stuff.
The reason you're needing to cut lower is you have very little muscle mass, and you badly need to recomp. If you actually lost enough weight to be lean in your current form you would be a skeleton.
Question, are there any high calorie foods I should definitely avoid? Also, are there any essential low calorie foods that are mandatory (like veggies I think are one).
>>37712146
Did you age 20 years? Might be the expression :/
If you are young looking I would strongly suggest doing gay porn (as a twink bottom) and I'm serious.
>>37712718
Great job. Recommend haircut.
>>37715817
lmao
>>37714763
do you work at pizza hut?
>>37703825
>former fatass
>>37718196
>cheat days/cheat meals are bullshit
Nah. Its physical and mental benefits are real.
Cutting from 240, at 220 currently.
>>37721695
What happend to your legs
>>37721703
Stupid accident
>>37721711
Was the accident self harm?
>>37721717
I tried to rape a porcupine a few weeks ago, it was a bet.
>>37720178
you should avoid any high calorie food.
you don't have to eat veggies but it makes the cut a lot easier.
actually you can eat high calorie food as long as you stay under your TDEE
>>37721722
what is the best snack while cutting?
>>37721719
Thats hilarious, be careful bro since it looks like self harm but damn thats funny, you have a vid?
>>37718859
Clean your mirror and start lifting.
>>37718853
anywhere from 10-12%
>>37721744
fuaaaaaaaaaaaark
thanks
>>37721736
Nah, sorry. I got $200 for it though. Was worth.
>>37721733
beef jerky
but it's expensive as hell
I usually eat apples and stuff like that.
avoiding snacks is also good, they just make you hungry again
>>37721755
thought people were gonna say like 15% lel
>>37721756
$200 and a cool story to tell your grandchildren
>>37708660

>>37721695

>>37711213
Careful, anon. You lose 80 lbs within 6 months you're going to have a shitton of loose skin.
Continue your progress, but be careful with how fast you go
>>37724947
Great work, keep it up!

>>37709517
very nice. what changes in diet did you make? trying to puzzle through this myself right now. Any advice?
>>37725023
From 200lbs to 180lbs.
Trying to reverse diet now, seems like every added calorie goes to my lower back.
Paranoid delusions maybe.
Nervous as all fuck about posting this
pls be gentle
>>37726568
>THICC
looks good
gj, dont stop now
>>37726568
nice progress
and milk duds
>>37726568
Definitely would take legs over shoulders, pound you in missionary, and watch those beautiful titties bounce as I bust in 3 minutes.
10/10, keep going, never stop; but if the titties start disappearing, maybe go female bear mode. I just love titties mane, so so much.
>>37722776
Lifting mostly, if I do cardio it is low intensity like power walking.
at 260 I was around 35%, probably in the 10% range now.
>>37723057
25% maybe
>>37725701
To start, just counting calories and try to get 1g/lb (usually fail this if you don't break calories). No sweets or added fats, largely stay away from fatty foods because they have more calories/gram than other macros. Personally I ate about 45% protein, 35% Carb, 20% Fat.
Exercise as much as possible. Even just walking a couple of miles can burn a surprising amount of calories for a fat guy.
Cut cals in places that are easy, like bread or egg yolks for low carb bread or just egg whites. 0% greek yogurt is god of snacks. Get plenty of fiber.
Stick to meals that are less than 1.5 calories per gram. This allows you to eat enough to feel full, and when you are starting that is one of the hardest things to get over.
>>37726568
lookin good m9, keep it up
>>37711203
Looking good pham
>>37712452
If you're going for true otter mode you should focus on burning fat rather than building muscle.
Go for general fridge mode instead of pic related
>>37712718
Keep fucking going, looks good so far
Me 3 months ago
>>37727145
Am i doing ok? I feel like sometimes i look better and then look like shit other times. I have a long way to go. Should have i made more progress by now?
>>37727057
>Go for general fridge mode instead of pic related
Wtf is fridgemode?
