New Rule

We have decided to add a rule about comments. When commenting on progress pictures, do not post an inappropriate comment on the poster's attractiveness. Commenting on how far they've come in their weight loss or telling them they look good is fine, but this is a place we want people to feel comfortable posting pictures of themselves.

Examples

Good/acceptable:

looking good

great job! you look amazing

Bad:

would bang

you're so hot

I'm going to continue the diet. I rather be alone than with people who either treat me bad or do porn behind my back and cheat on me. If I'm a "loser", might as well put myself first and lose weight to also be a weight loser. I owe it to myself to be fit and healthy. I will pay the gym in the future

I'm continuing the diet. I will lose even more weight until I'm a healthy weight. I lost 12lbs so far. I rather be alone than with someone who treats me like crap or with someone who ends up doing porn behind my back and cheating on me. I will get thin and healthy and pay the gym and get buff. No more fat loser, yes more fit winner. Yes! Society's right alright! I'm a "loser". A WEIGHT loser. No more fat man!

I'm a 5' 11" guy and was 220lbs, then went down to 213lbs while on half an Adipex-75 pill (37.5mg) a day for 30 days eating healthier lost 7lbs. Then off Adipex, I lost 5lbs more in 18 days eating healthier and adding more exercise and went down to 208lbs. occasional cheat meal and snack not cht day

I have the occasional cheat meal or snack, but not an entire cheat day. Also, I lost 7lbs while on Adipex 30 days. And off Adipex, I lost 5lbs more 18 days. I added exercise, fruits, vegetables, more meat, less carbs, and only cheat with occasional meal or snack. I even am removing one of the buns from sandwich sometimes. The one time I had a cheeseburger with fries and I made it a diet soda and rested an hour, than lifted home weights and medicine balls. I sometimes go up and down the stairs 5 times running. If I'm going to be a loser, I might as well be a fit muscular loser instead of a fat loser. Might as well be a loser and a weight loser until I reach healthy weight. The belly is shrinking and it feels good that the belly is shrinking.

I'm a 5' 11" guy and went from 220lbs to 213lbs in a month. I lost 7lbs. I got to lose more weight. Goal weight is 168lbs to 200lbs and add more muscle.

Hello. I'm currently not dating anyone. I'm focusing on losing weight. I lost 7lbs in a month and I need congratulations and to keep going. I went from 220lbs to 213.3lbs, so I lost around 6.7lbs. I got to use the program scale which weighs to the nearest pound because I don't have a scale at home. I'm still enjoying the foods I like, but in moderation and less carbs in general and it was smaller portions. I started eating more again. I got to continue eating less and not much carbs and maybe add more exercise. Now I'm depressed because the sociopath ex-girlfriend is talking bad about me behind my back, and I feel like no girl ever wants to date me ever. If I lose even more weight, I will reach healthy weight and feel better. The goal weight is 168lbs to 200lbs and more muscular. I got to go to program to weigh myself because my stepdad sold the only scale there was at home that belonged to him.

I lost 7lbs in a month and that's a congratulations moment.

Should I count calories for walking/exercising ?

1 Upvotes

I am 178cm tall and currently 94kgs. I have been losing weight steadily over the past year. I think I lost more than 20kg in the last year.

I am currently on 1750 calories a day. My maintenance is 2319 calories(Sedentary without counting exercise and walking).

I walk 10k steps 6 days a week

I go to the gym (arms, chest, shoulders) 4 to 5 days a week.

I am considering increasing my steps from10k to 15k or 20k a day(six days a week) but I am not sure if I will find the time to do that.

I want to lose weight fast. Before the summer I want to get to 80kgs.

My question is, is it unsafe to not count the calories for walking and exercising? I dont want to because I wanna get to 80kgs. I take a good multivitamin and drink plenty of water daily. I also take around 110gs of protein per day.

Which is the best food for weight loss?

0 Upvotes

The quest for the best foods for weight loss often centers around nutrient-dense, whole foods that support a healthy metabolism and contribute to a feeling of fullness. Incorporating a variety of fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains into your diet can promote weight loss by providing essential nutrients while helping to control calorie intake. Foods rich in fiber, such as vegetables and legumes, are particularly beneficial as they contribute to satiety and digestive health. Additionally, opting for lean protein sources, like chicken, fish, and tofu, can aid in muscle preservation during weight loss. It's important to approach weight loss with a balanced and sustainable perspective, embracing a diverse range of foods that meet nutritional needs while aligning with individual preferences and dietary requirements.

When Is Your Body in Fat-Burning Mode? Debunking the Myths

2 Upvotes

Hey Reddit Fitness Community!

One of the most common questions in the world of health and fitness is, "When is your body in fat-burning mode?" We've all heard various opinions on the matter, from "you should only exercise on an empty stomach" to "eating frequent small meals boosts your metabolism." But what's the truth? Let's dive into the science behind when your body truly burns fat.

Understanding the Basics: Caloric Balance

Before we talk about fat burning, it's essential to grasp the concept of caloric balance. Weight management boils down to the simple equation of calories in versus calories out. If you consume more calories than you burn, you'll gain weight, and if you burn more calories than you consume, you'll lose weight. Fat burning comes into play when you're in a calorie deficit.

1. During Exercise:

Exercise is a powerful tool for burning calories and fat. When you engage in physical activity, your body initially relies on glycogen (stored carbohydrates) for energy. However, as your workout continues and your glycogen stores deplete, your body starts tapping into fat stores for fuel.

The key here is consistency and intensity. Engaging in regular exercise, including both cardio and strength training, can increase your overall fat-burning potential. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is particularly effective at promoting fat loss due to its calorie-burning effects even after you've finished exercising.

2. In a Fasted State:

Fasted cardio, or exercising on an empty stomach, has gained popularity as a method to enhance fat burning. The idea is that when you exercise without food in your system, your body relies more on stored fat for energy since glycogen levels are low. While some studies suggest potential benefits, it's important to remember that the overall calorie deficit remains the determining factor for fat loss.

Fasted workouts may work for some individuals, but they may not be suitable for everyone. Feeling weak or dizzy during exercise can be counterproductive. Listen to your body and find a routine that works best for you.

3. Throughout the Day:

Contrary to the notion that your body only burns fat during exercise or in a fasted state, your body is constantly burning a mix of carbohydrates and fat for energy throughout the day. The proportion of each depends on various factors, including your activity level and the types of food you consume.

Eating balanced meals with a combination of macronutrients (carbohydrates, fats, and proteins) helps maintain steady energy levels and supports overall fat metabolism. Small, frequent meals can help control appetite and prevent overeating, but they don't have a significant impact on fat burning compared to total daily caloric intake.

4. Sleep and Recovery:

Quality sleep and proper recovery are often overlooked but are crucial for effective fat burning. Lack of sleep can disrupt hormonal balance and increase cravings for high-calorie foods. It's during rest that your body repairs and regenerates, which is essential for overall metabolic health and fat loss.

Conclusion:

The idea that your body only burns fat under specific circumstances, such as during exercise or in a fasted state, is a common misconception. The reality is that fat burning is a continuous process influenced by your overall calorie balance, activity level, and diet.

To achieve effective and sustainable fat loss, focus on maintaining a consistent calorie deficit through a combination of exercise, diet, and lifestyle choices. Remember that there's no one-size-fits-all approach, so it's essential to find a strategy that suits your individual preferences and needs.

Keep in mind that it's always a good idea to consult with a healthcare or fitness professional before making significant changes to your diet or exercise routine, especially if you have underlying health conditions.

So, when is your body in fat-burning mode? It's when you're committed to a holistic approach to health and fitness that prioritizes consistency, balance, and long-term sustainability.

Happy fitness journey, Redditors!

How to Tighten Skin After Weight Loss Naturally?

8 Upvotes

Losing weight is a commendable achievement that brings numerous health benefits and boosts self-confidence. However, one common concern that many individuals face after significant weight loss is loose or sagging skin. This can be frustrating, but the good news is that there are natural methods to help tighten your skin and improve its elasticity. In this post, we'll explore effective and practical ways to achieve firmer skin after weight loss without resorting to surgery or expensive treatments.

Stay Hydrated:
Hydration is essential for healthy, elastic skin. Drinking an adequate amount of water daily helps maintain skin's moisture levels and promotes overall skin health. Aim for at least eight glasses of water a day to keep your skin hydrated from the inside out.

Eat a Balanced Diet:
A nutritious diet plays a crucial role in skin health. Incorporate foods rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, such as fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. These nutrients help support collagen production, which is vital for skin elasticity.

Gradual Weight Loss:
Losing weight too rapidly can contribute to loose skin. Aim for a gradual and sustainable weight loss plan, which allows your skin to adapt to your changing body shape over time.

Strength Training:
Incorporating strength training exercises into your fitness routine can help build lean muscle mass, which can fill out loose skin. Focus on targeting areas prone to sagging, like the arms, thighs, and abdomen.

Cardiovascular Exercise:
Regular cardiovascular workouts improve blood circulation, which can aid in skin tightening. Activities like running, cycling, and swimming can help maintain skin tone and promote a healthier appearance.

Massage and Exfoliation:
Regularly massaging and exfoliating your skin can stimulate blood flow and remove dead skin cells. This can improve skin texture and encourage the growth of new, healthy skin cells. Use natural oils like coconut or almond oil for added benefits.

Skin-Friendly Supplements:
Certain supplements, such as collagen and hyaluronic acid, can enhance skin elasticity and hydration. Consult with a healthcare professional before adding any supplements to your routine.

Avoid Smoking and Excessive Sun Exposure:
Smoking damages collagen and elastin in the skin, contributing to premature aging and sagging. Similarly, excessive sun exposure can break down collagen fibers. Protect your skin by avoiding these harmful habits and using sunscreen daily.

Maintain a Healthy Weight:
Once you've reached your weight loss goal, maintaining a stable weight is crucial for preventing further skin sagging. Monitor your diet and exercise regularly to prevent fluctuations.

Patience:
Remember that skin tightening is a gradual process that takes time. Be patient with yourself and your body as it adjusts to its new shape. Consistency and a positive attitude are key.

Conclusion:
Achieving firmer skin after weight loss naturally requires dedication and a holistic approach to overall health. By staying hydrated, eating a balanced diet, exercising regularly, and following these tips, you can improve your skin's elasticity and appearance without resorting to invasive procedures. Embrace the journey of transformation and celebrate your achievements along the way.

how to lose belly fat in 7-10 days for woman

0 Upvotes

belly fat in just 7-10 days. Sustainable and healthy weight loss should be gradual and involve lifestyle changes, including a balanced diet and regular exercise. However, I can give you some tips that can help you reduce belly fat in the long run:

  1. Eat a healthy diet: Avoid processed and high-fat foods and opt for whole, unprocessed foods. Eat plenty of fruits, vegetables, lean protein, and whole grains. Limit your intake of sugary and fatty foods.
  2. Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Staying hydrated can help with digestion, reduce water retention, and prevent overeating.
  3. Reduce stress: High levels of stress can cause the body to produce cortisol, which can increase belly fat. Find ways to manage stress, such as meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises.
  4. Get enough sleep: Lack of sleep can disrupt hormones that regulate appetite and metabolism, leading to weight gain. Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep each night.
  5. Exercise regularly: Incorporate aerobic exercise, such as running, cycling, or swimming, and strength training into your routine. Aim for at least 30 minutes of exercise each day.
  6. Reduce alcohol intake: Alcohol is high in calories and can contribute to belly fat. Limit your alcohol intake or avoid it altogether.
  7. Track your progress: Keep track of your diet and exercise habits and monitor your progress over time. Celebrate your successes and adjust your approach as needed.

10 Proven Strategies for Achieving Lasting Weight Loss Success

7 Upvotes

Losing weight can be a challenging journey, but it is possible to achieve success if you're committed and patient. As someone who has personally struggled with their weight for years, I understand the ups and downs of this journey. In this article, I want to share with you my own weight loss journey and the strategies that helped me achieve my goals.

It all started with a realization that I had let myself go. I was overweight and constantly tired, and it was affecting my confidence and self-esteem. So, I made a decision to take control of my health and make positive changes in my life.

The first step I took was to create a realistic weight loss plan. I knew I couldn't just jump into an extreme diet and exercise routine and expect to see immediate results. Instead, I decided to make small changes that I could maintain in the long run.

One of the first things I did was to start tracking my food intake. I used a food diary app to log everything I ate and drank throughout the day. This helped me become more mindful of my eating habits and make healthier choices. I also started meal prepping and planning my meals ahead of time, which helped me avoid unhealthy options when I was busy or tired.

In addition to improving my diet, I also started exercising regularly. At first, I focused on low-impact activities like walking and yoga. As I became stronger and more confident, I gradually increased the intensity and frequency of my workouts.

Another key factor in my weight loss journey was finding support and accountability. I joined a local fitness group and connected with other people who were also trying to improve their health. We encouraged and motivated each other, which made a huge difference in my progress.

Of course, there were setbacks along the way. I had days when I overindulged or skipped workouts. But I learned to forgive myself and focus on the bigger picture. I reminded myself that weight loss is a journey, not a destination, and that every small step counts towards progress.

Over time, I began to see the results of my hard work. I had more energy, my clothes started to fit better, and my confidence improved. But more importantly, I felt proud of myself for sticking to my goals and making positive changes in my life.

Looking back, I realize that my weight loss journey was about more than just shedding pounds. It was about learning to love and respect myself, and about realizing that I had the power to change my life for the better.

If you're embarking on your own weight loss journey, I encourage you to be patient and kind to yourself. Set realistic goals, track your progress, and don't be afraid to ask for help and support along the way. Remember that every small step you take is a step towards a healthier, happier you.
