Really though, that double burger would be much much better with no bacon, cheese or mayo. That's a little shortcut for you to save 300 calories while only losing about 10g or so of protein. And of course, like I said earlier, don't get fries - it's kind of worthless nutrition-wise. There are a lot of little tricks like that you can do to make fast food not actually so bad.

I’m not giving up Saturday beer and pizza but I’m inspired now.
1700 calories yesterday and no reason I can’t be solidly clean during week. |

Diet hasn't been working for me. Starting this week I'm going all out, food and water logging, low carb + IF, strenuous daily cardio, and supplements, the whole nine. Maybe mix in some basic bitch weight training to keep the heart rate elevated. I've had success losing before but for whatever reason the diet isn't moving the scale this time.
Starting at 275, hoping to hit 230 this year. Posting this here to keep me honest. |

I don't monitor anything I eat other than making sure I get enough protein and fat. Carbs for the most part of 'free' calories. |

I was never able to be lean until I decided to count EVERYTHING. once I did that, I got a real feel for portion size, estimating what is actually in a meal, and, most importantly, knowing my base calories for a day. If you want to get reasonably lean and keep muscle, you're going to have to count and track because it's damn near impossible to stay in a slight deficit otherwise. You'll end up overeating and not leaning out, or you'll undereat and drop too much muscle. You want a slight deficit (300-500 calories) per day.

As far as maintaining, you definitely get used to what a serving size actually looks like, and then if you meal prep on top of that, it's easy to portion things out for a week. If I needed/wanted to drop weight though, I'd definitely track (and with apps these days, of course once you get a base of foods/meals logged, it only takes 30 seconds most meals anyway). |

In my opinion it's not necessary to count calories but it can be helpful. It's not rocket science. Losing weight amounts to calories out > calories in.
Doing cardio consistently is much more effective for most people. You look at how much hardwork it takes to burn calories it will make you think twice about overeating. Trust me. But to each their own. Also intermittent fasting is very effective if you don't the right way. Last edited by PAChiefsGuy; 05-14-2024 at 12:51 PM.. |
