Everybody hating my diet has me absolutely committed to losing the pounds, so, thanks for that View Quote first the OP decides a diet means he is stepping down to paper plates .. then its cakes and ice cream and brownies everywhere.. now its ' but im so sincere'.. but the OP isnt answering any of the basic questions.. why arent you actually eating less calories to try and lose weight? <--- lost more weight since pg5 than the op claims to have lost in weeks. |

OP must be trolling us. 4 pounds in 4 weeks? Cut carbs out for 4 days and you'll lose more than that. |

I remember during the smart well cookie eat all you want as long as it's low fat era people would frequently gorge on high carb sugary food and claim they were losing weight all the while getting fatter.
I actually remember that. It was crazy. Since not weighing yourself was also part of the fad the delusion was safe. The OP's menu reminds me of that. I think of the lender bagle commercial where the guy goes on and on about bagles and "complex carbohydrates" when in fact breads with flour are not in any way complex carbohydrates. People are more influenced by advertising than by actual facts and reality. |

Checked out the Mayo Clinic BMI (body mass index) calculator, which accounts for gender and waist size in addition to height and weight.
Currently at BMI 26.7 (overweight) To get to 24.9 the high end of "normal", I need to get my weight to 210 lbs. Therefore ... New Goal = less than 210 lbs. |

Hey OP, can we get a body picture? No homo, I'm 6'4 and 260lb down from 330 lb last October. I'm curious as to what someone roughly my height looks like. Around my goal weight. I have lost a fuck ton of weight finally but still have a ways to go. I'm the lightest I have ever been in my adult life. Good on you making the choice to change. I really need to get my fat ass in the gym....

You keep saying that its gonna take a long time yada yada yada but you could drop those 5 lbs in a week and a half, IF YOU WANTED TOO.

Evidence: satiety. Why would any living organism eat itself into morbid obesity? Why would half an entire population do so? Why does TDEE go up when fasting, but down when restricting calories in the presence of carbs? Answer these questions and you will disprove the notion that human biology follows the laws of thermodynamics. OP you have spent weeks fluctuating water weight. Carbs in your restricted calorie diet are causing insulin spikes, which prevent fat burning and cause energy storage and are down regulating your metabolism. The moment you realize you're not getting anywhere, stop taking pictures of everything and say fuck it, you'll gain everything back and more. NUGE: Satiety is HUGE! And it is hardly the only plus to keto. There's no hangry in ketosis. |
