| [Weight Loss] Under 200 lbs and not categorised as OBESE for the first time in over 7 years! Posted: 27 Dec 2020 07:50 AM PST I started my weight loss journey last year on July 1 when I weighed 125 kg or 275 lbs. Now, 18 months later, with a not so strict routine, and thanks to being home most of the time due to the lockdown, I have reached under 200 lbs (90kg) for the first time ever since 2013. I follow a low carb keto diet. I haven't been so strict with respect to my macros ever but I do limit my carbs as much as I can. I primarily drink a lot of espresso and cannot emphasise drinking enough water during the day. I do mild exercise which includes eliptical trainer, a bit of jogging - 1 or 2 kms everyday and I used to do cycling before I had a freak injury and the doctor has advised me to stop cycling altogether. I try to walk 10,000 steps everyday and tracking my exercises and calories burned on my Apple Watch daily really motivated me to lose weight. When I started out, my Body Fat Percentage was 44% and I had a BMI of 39. Currently, my BMI is down to 28 and Body Fat Percentage is also down to 28%. By this year end I wish to hopefully reach my Ideal BMI of 23 equalling 155 lbs and achieve a Body Fat Percentage of 15%. It's not been a smooth journey but I am glad I have come this far. Here is the progress pic! [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 27 Dec 2020 05:47 PM PST I just realised that I picked up a not-so-great food habit over the years so I want to rant about it. So earlier today, I was like "I need to go get food" and I stopped and thought about all the food I already had in the pantry, freezer and fridge. I spent fifteen minutes counting it all up and turns out I already have 27,504 calories worth of food in the house - and not just junk. I have frozen Brussels sprouts and spinach, and fresh carrots and a whole thing of still relatively-fresh cabbage that I bought when I was trying to "eat clean" two weeks ago. Powdered miso soup that I had bought and forgotten. Whole wheat pasta. Gift chocolates from a friend where I was like "meeeh I don't like this brand" so I just put it in the pantry. Cheese crackers. Packaged dry lentils. Cans of tomato sauce and beans. If I just decided to eat what was already in the house at 1500 calories a day, that would give me 18 whole days of meals, without having to purchase another item. If I was smart about when I thawed the frozen stuff, I could have balanced meals every day... and yet, doing that or rather "limiting" myself like that seems utterly terrifying. It's really sad how I've trained myself to be satisfied "NOW" - like I need to go seek out exactly that one food item that I want NOW. Even if it means going and spending more money at the store when I have perfectly good food here already. Like... I have these gift chocolates at home. I can eat those and be 70% satisfied instead of 100% for once and be completely fine - I'm not going to die if I'm not 100% satisfied. I'm just in awe of how bratty my attitude was. Like how expecting myself to be 100% satisfied all the time had completely become the norm in terms of how I sought out food... I'm going to try and be better about this, and better about catching these faulty habits that I've built up over the years... [link] [comments] |
| Gained like 40lbs during lockdown. Simultaneously upset with myself yet can't bring myself to care Posted: 27 Dec 2020 09:44 PM PST it's fucking rough, man. it's just hard to give a shit about what is essentially cosmetics right now -- it's not like i can go out and have fun and take pictures and shit. i exist to do shit online and work. so why the hell should i care that i've gone up a size? not to mention i'm also trying to deal with other mental health shit, namely not drinking. fucking up in that regard is much more dangerous to my health/life/etc than eating a cake. it's hard to invest any energy in restricting myself food-wise when that energy is mainly being directed towards not drinking. it's annoying because i know i am physically and mentally capable of dieting. 3 summers of my life, i've downloaded MFP, tracked my calories, kept under the limit, and got down to like 140. so the ability is there. i just...can't care now. maybe once things open up i'll have some motivation? it's frustrating.

| How understanding the sunk cost fallacy helped reduce my waistline Posted: 27 Dec 2020 08:55 AM PST Hi all, I just wanted to introduce some of you to an idea called the Sunk Cost Fallacy. It basically says that we, as irrational beings, think that we must do something because we spent money on it, even if we don't want to. As an example, say you're out at a nice dinner and you have an enjoyable meal and you order ice cream. By the time the ice cream dessert comes you realize that you are quite full and you no longer want the ice cream - but you end up eating it and regretting it, feeling sick and over stuffed "because I paid for it". This mode of thinking creeps in a LOT. As an example - I used to over eat because a lot of times I would say "I will start eating clean on Monday, but first I have to eat all the food I have in the house now because I paid for it". And you know how that went. Then I would convince myself that it was more economical to buy the great big bag of chocolate even though I knew I didn't want to eat all of that. Then I would convince myself that I had to eat the whole thing because I spent the money on it. I am here to tell you; its okay to throw it away. Its okay to leave food on the table. Its okay to spend just a little bit more for a smaller size. Keep your eye on what matters to you! We make mistakes and over buy, say yes too often, or feel pressured to accept/finish things we were given. YOU DONT HAVE TO! The sunk cost fallacy says that we will act irrationally when we know we've sunk the money in - but that money is gone either way. You can still live in a way that is in line with your values - let it go!! That plate of Christmas cookies on the counter? You don't HAVE to eat them all because your friend made them. That Christmas pie in the fridge? I know you spent all that time and effort making it but its okay if you don't finish it. When grocery shopping I like to ask myself two questions and the answer must be a yes for both if the item is to make it into my cart - Is it good for my wallet? (Are there reasonable alternatives like store brand items or economy size?) and is it good for my waist? (will having the entire contents of the item in the house lead to a binge, will the item bring me regret for eating it, or will the item be in line with my current weight loss goals?) Just thought I'd share for anyone who needs to hear it!! [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 27 Dec 2020 06:24 AM PST Like many people, I have a special holiday menu I prepare every year that is full of delicious fattening items, and like many people, I end up with way too many leftovers that I end up eating for several days. I like to kick back and relax for Christmas and not worry about what I'm eating. I figure that's fine to do for a day, but when it lasted a week last year, it wasn't good. I know I could throw the leftovers away, but I'm not going to. Instead I took notes once the leftovers were finally all consumed. What inspired me was a cranberry orange bread that I like to make as part of Christmas morning breakfast. I made two loaves last year, but my kids wouldn't eat any because they didn't like the cranberries in it. Since I made so much, my husband and I had what is essentially cake for breakfast for several days in a row. When it was finally gone, I sat down and wrote on my Christmas food shopping list that two loaves was too much and to make one instead. I also noted to add cranberries to only half the loaf, so my kids would eat some. Then I went through all the rest of my holiday foods, made notes where we had too much, and wrote down adjusted amounts for the next year. And it worked! Yesterday morning, everyone ate a little bit of the bread with breakfast, finishing it off. Then we ate the rest of the modest leftovers for other meals throughout the day because who wants to cook the day after Christmas? Now, two days after Christmas all the sweet, fatty and rich leftovers are gone. I still have a little meat and salad left that I can use to make some portion controlled sandwiches/salads, and I have a nice light soup planned for dinner today. I had my Christmas meal. I greatly enjoyed it, and now I can move on, continuing my weight loss. I will be keeping this in mind for my other holiday meals, and hopefully it helps someone else too. [link] [comments] |
| Had my eye-opening moment yesterday Posted: 27 Dec 2020 05:54 AM PST A couple of years ago, I worked hard and lost 40 pounds. I started this year at about 10 pounds over my ideal weight. But then, 2020. This year has really brought out my stress eating. I haven't weighed myself in months because I'm honestly afraid to see where I'm at. I think I'm up like 30 pounds at least. And finally, yesterday I had to go up a notch.. on my watch. I noticed my watch band was a bit tight and actually digging in to my wrist. A pretty low moment for me, honestly. So here we go again. Time to get serious and lose it. Cheers to everyone in the same boat, we can do this! 2021 will be a better year. [link] [comments] |
| Other people feeling judged by my weight loss - anyone else have this happen? Posted: 27 Dec 2020 02:55 PM PST Whenever I talk to other people about my weight loss journey, it seems like they automatically feel judged or attacked by me. The subject has come up lately because my weight loss is noticeable, and people mention it and ask what I'm doing. I'm honest and tell them I'm doing a modified keto plus CICO, and exercise. It's usually at that point where the other person starts self-deprecating, saying things like, "Ugh, I'm so fat, I need to lose weight too!" Or "I need to exercise, eat right, be healthy but I can't," etc etc. And they say it with a harsh tone, like they are chastising themselves. It makes me feel weirdly uncomfortable and I never really know what to say back. Some have circled back to me for more details on the plan I'm following, but even then, once I give them details, it's all self-defeating responses. I could never do that, I don't have time to do all that, one thing or another. And to be clear, I'm not telling them what they should do, only what I am doing and what has worked for me. Everyone is different, and some people aren't even interested in weight loss or exercising, and that's totally fine with me! You do you! I'm not bringing up the subject myself, it's always them asking me about it but then it just turns into a conversation where they are down on themselves, almost like they are expecting me to criticize them or something. Which I am absolutely not going to do, I'm not interested in breaking anybody down! But it's like just by me existing, that's some kind of requiem on what they "should" be doing. Does anyone else get this kind of response from others? How do you respond back or handle this situation? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 27 Dec 2020 07:11 PM PST I was doing really well for about a month. I was eating around 1600 calories a day, and walking about 20,000+ steps, with a workout sometimes as well. I only took like 2 rest days during that month, and each one, I still did like 10,000 steps. I started at around 340+ and I think I've lost about 20-30 lbs last month. Then I hurt my foot. I was running on the sidewalk barefoot. There was a fire in my house, so my parents had me drive down the street with the cars to make room for the fire truck, and I ran back to the house without thinking I might hurt my foot since my fatass was pounding my feet the sidewalk. I fucked up my instep pretty bad, it hurt like hell to walk for like 3 days. Then it started to get better, but I didn't start walking again. I kinda fell back into my usual routine weight loss were I do good, something happens, and I give myself a reason to quit. I fell off for a week instead of 3 days, because my weak mind allowed myself to fall off track like I always do. BUT THIS TIME IT AINT HAPPENING AGAIN BOIS!!!! I'm not gonna let my pussy ass mind find a way for me to fuck up and fail again like I always do. I started back up again today, and just reached my new goal of 22,000 steps a day. Keep grinding fuckers.... don't let your depression, laziness, sadness, or weak minds control you any longer. 2021 is OUR year to get SHIT DONE. Keep Hammering, Stay Hard, Merry Fucking Christmas [link] [comments] |
| I’m starting to develop an unhealthy relationship with eating after some weight loss, please help Posted: 27 Dec 2020 09:03 PM PST A year ago I weighed 150lbs at 5'3" I limited my calories to 1200 per day and lost 30lbs within 4 months to now being 124lbs. I'm trying to lose 10-15 more pounds and it has been EXTREMELY hard. I don't exercise at the gym (I don't feel safe doing so with COVID) and I work a sedentary job. I'm now starting to feel like when I eat those 1200 calories in a day that I'm binging, that I'll be extremely fat to the point of gaining some weight. In my brain, I've now somehow told myself that 700 calories per day is ultimate, 900 calories is a bit of a cheat and 1200 calories is a binge in a day. If I eat 1200 calories my weight just stays the same. I've gone some days (up to a week) of only eating 700 calories and it wasn't sustainable. I'd go back to the 1200 because I'd be starving. Why did all of a sudden did my brain think that now 1200 calories (which is normal, if not less than the recommended daily intake) is a binge and 700 is normal? How do I overcome this too?

| Posted: 27 Dec 2020 05:13 PM PST Ahhh!! For context, I've lost about seven pounds in the last two-ish months. I'm celebrating a proposal with some family-friends I haven't seen since I started losing weight and when I went inside to get some chips and dip I noticed them looking at me talking. I came back out and joked like "What are you talking about me for?" And they said "Nothing, you just look slimmer. Have you been losing weight?" And I was genuinely taken aback at how they noticed. I was like "really, you can tell?" I'm wayy more happy than I thought I'd be! Again, I've lost seven pounds but in myself I haven't seen a difference in the mirror. I barely feel a slight difference in how my pants fit and that's it. The fact that OTHER people are seeing it blows my mind but makes me feel great! [link] [comments] |
| Motivation Monday. Get and give motivation for yourself or others. Posted: 27 Dec 2020 09:00 PM PST "Why I need or how I found motivation."Just starting and need a kick in the pants? Please revisit this post through the week to help motivate yourself and others! [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 27 Dec 2020 09:43 AM PST It's crazy that we talk ourselves out of spending 30 minutes a day to better ourselves. No one said you had to workout like a powerlifter or Olympic athlete. You can take a stroll around your block, apartment complex, a nearby park, etc. You can dance in your living room to your favorite music. You can stretch on your bedroom floor. You can clean your bathroom. I know cleaning my tub makes me sweat. Just MOVE. MOVE AROUND. Your body will thank you. So when I start to talk myself out of exercise, I ask myself "what else are you going to do today to better yourself?" I know for me, the days that I actively talk myself out of exercise, I end up googling random stuff, napping, or watching stuff on tv that doesn't make me smarter, more interesting, or healthier. It's a simple question: What else were you going to do today with that time? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 28 Dec 2020 01:33 AM PST I'm doing CICO and today is my first day of counting calories and trying to stay below a limit. I burn about 2420 cal in a day and today I have eaten 1140. I know I'll lose faster if I eat fewer calories, and I can lose about 11lbs this month if I stick to this amount/day (probably more since I haven't factored in exercise). I'm having a really hard time not just eating as few calories as possible, and I feel like my efforts are going to waste if this happens any slower than I want. Prior to the past few days, I have been extremely sedentary and eaten without abandon, so logically I know that any change in my lifestyle will make a significant difference to my health and to my weight. But in my head, my body image is pretty bad and I just want to reach my goal weight as soon as possible, and definitely before it's safe to get back in public again. I just keep looking at old pictures of myself and wishing I still looked like I did back then. I also just really need my clothes to fit me again soon. How do you get over these challenging thoughts? I am so tired. One more thing to add: I have previously lost a significant amount of weight from dieting, but never when the motivation had to come from myself. Once was as a child on low-carb and another time was inadvertently when I was plant based as a teenager and also occasionally exercised. It's so hard for me to motivate myself to only prepare low calorie food when it's so easy to just go through the drive thru, and anything I cook takes a lot of fat to taste good lol.

| Posted: 27 Dec 2020 09:12 PM PST Hello Everyone, I am in a place where I just need to manifest my current goal aloud in hopes to keep myself accountable I'm not really one for new years resolution, and have been working on changing my mindset and being more in tuned with my habits over the last few months. Something I need to remind myself is that I am not picking up this book half way read and continuing on (as I have previously lost 30 lbs before 2020), I am simply starting a new book all together and starting from scratch. My goal for the next year is to lose 40 lbs, ideally I'd like to have lost it all by June and spend the second half of the year maintaining the weight. On one hand I want to wane into this slowly so I don't set myself up for failure but I also want results sooner than later. I have a vague idea of what I'd like my daily intake to be in regards of items eaten, drink, and movement, but I would love some input from what has been helping other people see long term su cess as that is far more important to me. I'm a vegetarian, 5'6", and as of today weight 219.8 lbs. Here we go ♥️. Please feel free to share things that have been working for you, things that help your u stay motivated, various apps, methods of tracking, and routines that benefit you. All of the resources that keep you being successful. You all are appreciated! [link] [comments] |
| Wisdom teeth extraction worries Posted: 27 Dec 2020 09:58 PM PST I have two wisdom teeth that have to be extracted in a few weeks. I started my weight loss journey in October and have successfully lost 15 pounds. I have stayed extremely dedicated to exercising and CICO. Now for my worries, When I was 17 I had two teeth filled that had cavities. Little did I know, they were wisdom teeth. Idk why my parents chose to get them filled and not pulled. So, story short, I have to get the top two wisdom teeth pulled while I'm put to sleep. I'm scared that since I won't be able to exercise for a few days, I will completely fall off and ruin all my progress. I'm not so worried about the diet, just losing the motivation. I had a tooth extracted as a teenager and remembered being in so much pain that all I wanted to do was cry or sleep. Sorry for rambling. I just have so many emotions involving this entire thing.

| Quarantine and power outages have me going backwards (vent post) Posted: 27 Dec 2020 05:34 PM PST I see a lot of people have really taken advantage of the pandemic and staying at home and getting better control of their eating, weight loss, and exercise, which has been great. I'm not sure why I'm making this post except to vent about my frustration this whole year. A few months ago I found this sub and took it's advice to heart, and actually started losing weight! I went from 219lb to 209lb (the lowest I'd been for a year or two) and shit just started to hit the fan immediately after. I live in SoCal and we started having power outages weekly - I had to take our fridge contents, move them to my moms, and back and forth for a few weeks. I ate out because I had to and completely lost my under-calorie streak. I lost a lot of money on groceries. Then I just stopped counting calories because I felt defeated by the high-caloric foods I was eating. The power outages would last a few days at a time and I couldn't control where we got food and I couldn't cook for myself either. I feel so lost now. I just want to pig out because it feels like my efforts will just get thwarted again, and weight loss takes such a long time. That if I start these fucking power outages are just going to make it worse again. I know that the sooner I start the sooner I'll see progress, but it feels so harder than it did a few months ago. It feels like everything I eat has so many damn calories regardless of what it is, homemade or not. It's like I've completely forgotten how I did it in the first place. I had finally felt good about losing weight since I can control the kitchen and my disability keeps me from being able to exercise at all. But now I'm tired of being home doing nothing all day. I'm tired of cooking. I'm tired of washing dishes. I'm tired of making messes then having to clean it up every damn day. I'm in this tiny apartment all day every day and I'm so over it. Again, not really posting except to vent and maybe get some words of wisdom from everyone. I feel like if I start again I'm just going to fail and grab the nearest bag of chips. I wish quarantine was just simple, but living in this tiny apartment, the power being cut a million times, and I'm too exhausted to do anything but stay fat. [link] [comments] |

| Starting Fresh mentally mid or late journey Posted: 27 Dec 2020 07:10 AM PST I started this two years ago at 327.6. I weighed in today at 191 (Year end goal was 196 so yay!). I've decided to reset everything to zero as of today and I hope my rambling reason why is of some help (i.e I am going from a guy who was 327.6 to 191 and trying to lose 21 more to a 191lb guy trying to lose 21lbs) I've kinda gotten attached to the big number. Dropping 135+ lbs is, frankly, a lot of weight. Pickup two seventy lb dumbbells and it's like "wow". People listen to you on this subreddit when you're -100 or more. It's impressive. The problem with the big number is, I think, twofold. One, it cements your identity based on the past. You can't ever think about dropping 140lbs without tying that to the day two years ago when I weighed in. The goal, remember, is not to be a former heavy person it's to be a current normal weighted person (if that makes sense). I don't want to spend the next thirty years with "I used to be fat" as a defining sign post in my life. Two, it makes every bit of progress (or backsliding) less. Going from -140 to -139 or -141 doesn't really change the number does it? As a percentage it's tiny. Which means (for me) the motivation is kinda less because it's just harder to move the needle. Like, I track calories and can tell you that in 2019 and 20 I averaged 2106 calories a day. To move that up or down 1 calorie I need to eat or deficit 729 calories today. And every day, as more data gets added, that number gets harder and harder to budge. So...have started new spreadsheets and reset my flair. As of today I am 191lbs and trying to lose 21 this year. Goal is 0.5 per week for the first six months with the major goal of getting under 180. I feel lighter mentally but also motivated because the weigh in next week is the first and I don't want to start in the wrong direction. Same with food, I went from "it's the holidays" to "I have seven days to rack up some wins and get on pace to succeed". I dunno if this helped anyone but maybe a fresh start for you could reinvigorate your own losing or help you break a plateau. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 27 Dec 2020 11:20 AM PST I just started seriously counting calories last week, I haven't even weighed myself yet. (Numbers in flair based on doctors office figures, about a month old, but I don't own a scale so it'll have to do for now). Sunday is usually my big treat breakfast day. I usually eat 4 donuts, including 2 lamars bars. So today I bit the bullet and looked up the calories. 810 per bar!!! Jesus!!! Instead of my normal, I ordered one and cut it in half and ate that to stay at my 400 per meal goal. (I'm trying 400-ish a meal plus one 300 calorie snack, not counting macros, not worrying about sugar, for now. That would be Too Much All At Once.) I don't really have any supports irl, so I'm going to just brag here that I ate half a donut instead of 4 :) [link] [comments] |

Thanks to /u/nofollowthrough who made the 24-Hour Pledge an ongoing /r/loseit institution. Due to space limitations, this may be a sticky only occasionally. Please find it daily using the sidebar or top message. On reddit, your vote means, "I found this interesting" (...read more about voting on reddit) [link] [comments] |
| Less confidence and depression even with weight loss? Posted: 28 Dec 2020 01:58 AM PST I'm wondering If anyone else is experiencing this. So far since starting my weight loss journey 3 month ago I've lost around 17lbs. Even though I know there's a difference and I should feel more confident I've been weirdly depressed. I haven't seen any friends, I stick to my set routine of food and exercise, I wear the same oversized hoodie and I don't do my my make up or hair anymore. I feel like a shell of a person and I'm so aware of all my "flaws". I can't seem to get out of this mindset I've tried everything. When I try on clothes I just get so sad and end up crying. Has anyone else managed to work through this? I'm hoping it will pass as I lose more weight but that will take MONTHS and I do feel really isolated. [link] [comments] |
