ITT: Post your recent /fit/-related successes
>lost 10 lb in 2.5 weeks (277 to 267)
>I might actually make it brahs
Getting my macros in order. In April my diet was around 55% carbs, 15% protein, and 30% fats. Now It's around 35% carbs, 25% protein, and 40% fats. Next step is to up protein closer to 40% and decrease fats a little bit. Almost there!

OP here. How important are macros in terms of weight loss? I usually exceed my daily recommended sugar intake because I don't like tea without sugar and just do CICO like a lazy faggot.

What?
>>37958058
keep going future /fit/izen!
>>37958161
Cheers my dude
Will lifting help tighten up any loose skin?
>>37958108
Not all that important, but /fit/ will never tell you that. Eat the sugar as long as you stay within your macros.
>>37958361
I'm a retard. **Eat the sugar as long as it stays within your caloric deficit.**
>>37958058
Did the same thing bruh. I even drink 12 beers a day. My drunk baked chicken breast is fucking delicious and I feel clean in the morning. It's crazy how one chang in your life can turn it all around.
>>37958502
I've only lost about 10% of what I want to lose and I already feel a shit ton lighter.
>>37958380
I'm staying within my caloric deficit, in fact most days I'm about 500-1000 kj below my deficit. Probably not very healthy, but then again neither is a BMI of 40.
Ran 3 laps around the track without stopping. Wanna make it a full mile this week.
Just dropped 31 lbs in 4 months and only lost 10 on my BP and OHP and just got my DL and squat back to where they were when I was 31 lbs heavier
I'm also developing a 6-pack, which I have never had
>>37958058
Yes you will anon. Keep at it.
I benched lmao2pl8 a few days ago.
>tfw finally reached 1/2/3/4
>Squat was stuck at 5x65kg for weeks
>Kept trying to push 67.5 but could only rep 1 or 2 times before failure
>Last night I managed to get 5 reps out of 67.5, and 3 of 70kg
I know I'm dyel af but it's still progress
>>37958058
>lost 10 lbs off 277
>literally the size of a small shit
>counting it as a success
jkys
I dont count/check success with pics. Is it a bad idea ?
I am 9 months in heavylifting. 6 months was not eating enough. 3 months been eating like hell
managed to figure out how to avoid my shoulder tendon catching/clicking during bench, thats been hanging me up for months now so thats awesome.
to balance it out, I was weirdly weak at the gym today (like, strength was ok but i was just gassing out, it was strange) and got real dizzy OHPing. then later i went partially blind on my right side (list about 30ยบ of peripheral vision, and it was a brain thing not an eye thing) for about an hour, so that was pretty fuckin wacky. but it came back so, success?
>>37958058
Not a success more like what the fuck.
Bench 140 for 5
Ohp 115 for 5
I keep thinking my bench will outrun my ohp one day but my ohp and bench have been about a 20 pound difference for months
>>37958058
>Lost 22 pounds in one month (from 290 to 268 . I'm 194cm tall) with diet and hard cardio
>Started lifting last monday(Plus I continued with the diet and cardio) , gained 5 pounds
It kinda sucks , but I think I can be at a normal weight in 6 or more months
>>37958058
>Old shirt i started fitting again since last week
>Go see how much i weight i lost with victory shirt
>5kg
>Only thing i changed in my routine was stop being ashamed of being fat and going to the beach to show my mainly tits, i've been doing it everyday for 2 weeks
This inspired me to actualy become /fit/ it's the reason i'm here in the first place
>>37958058
>squatted lmao2plate for the first time
it was a lot easier than I thought it would be. hopefully 2>3 is not excruciatingly slow
>>37958058
>230 to 188 in 4 months
