You should poop more.Sounds legit.
lift
You want a serious answer?
This is how i lost weight:
Keep it under 130 heart rate and do it for a long time. Doesent matter if its running, cycling or some other machine. Do it for half an hour 1st if you can, then increase it by 5 minutes each training. Alternate between rutines to keep it interesting. My training, at the end of the weight loss period, was 30 minutes running, 40 mins cycling and 20 mins on a stepper, all around 125 heartrate.
How do you know if its fat burn and not cardio? If you can normaly speak while doing it (you are not huffing and puffing) its fat burn.
Buy some l-carnitine, its dirt cheap and it helps. Take 2 pills 30 minutes before each training.
Cut bread and sweets completely out. No exceptions.
When you have lunch, put how much you would normaly eat on a plate. Now eat half of that, eat the other haf in 2 hours. Eat a healthy and large breakfeast, i ate oats and milk with honey. Eat some veggies or fruit for dinner. When you feel hungry drink water, drink shitloads of water all day.
The harders part is maintaining your discipline. You have to reaaaaaly want to lose weight and have strong willpower.
Its not rocket science, its just spending more energy than you put in your mouth.
Good luck
Negative. Lift simply makes you muscle under armor layered in lots of fat. You need cardio/fat burn exercises.

Best "diet" is just to eat once a day. No need to go about limiting anything. Eat as much bread and whatever you want, doesn't matter, you won't gain weight.
I never said eat many times a day to speed up your metabolism. I personally eat 3, max 4 times a day. It's just unhealthy to eat only once per day, and it will make you gain more fat than eating several meals per day.Why, because you said so? In that case, it is unhealthy to eat more than once a day.
Especially combined with training of whatever kind, it would be totally retarded to eat only once per day.
Uh, no it won't. The whole "eat many times a day to speed up your metabolism" thing is mostly a marketing trick. At best it'll burn 10 to 20 calories more. Eating once a day is how our ancestors ate and what our bodies are adapted to.
Marketing trick for what?
Illuminati merchandise obvs
Marketing trick for what?Hey guys, you know you have to eat 6 meals/day? Yeah even when you are at work where you don't have time to prepare an actual meal.
Umbra you don't have to make it so complicated man. It's very simple actually.
First law of thermodynamics: energy in = energy out.
If you burn more than you eat you will lose weight.
How to eat less?
1)Artyem posted myfitnesspal.com, this is where you start. Countig calories is probably the only way that works. You can eat less and cut out sweets but it will go slower and you will underestimate what you eat.
2) eat healthy: you need fats, proteins and carbs. Sugar should be minimized.
3)skipping breakfast: somebody already mentioned this. The body isn't build to be stuffed all the time. We need a daily period of fasting where our insulin is low. During this period your body will be able to rapidly burn fat instead of 'scraping' it off. I suggest not eatingg untill 1 or 2 pm, this will also render you less hungry and tired.
If you want to take it a step further, have a 'undereating window' after your fasting window where you don't eat any carbs (except green veggies) and keep your protein intake under 25-30g. Fats don't raise insulin so don't worry about those.
How to burn more?
1) cardio is hands down the best way to burn fat. This video explains why. (on my phone so shitty link). This doesn't mean lifting or HIIT is bad, doing both cardio and lifting will increase your muscle mass (noobgains) and will burn fat! The extra muscle you put on will also help you raise your metabolidm.
Don't overthink stuff like your heartbeat etc... There is no need for that.

That doesn't mean you can't build in a fasting period;)
I would personaly strongly disagree about skipping breakfast, but every body reacts diferently. If you get results this way, by all means go for it.You probably never tried this. Every body will react the same on lower insulin levels.
Says losing fat is simple.Basically it's all about the eating less than you burn, the other points are just things that can help or make it easier.
Posts manifesto to prove it.
It's actually funny how people can think eating all the time will boost your metabolism enough to burn more fat.
Would be a pretty stupid evolution to design a digestive system that is so efficient. You would have to eat a shit ton of food because 50% of the energy would be used to actually digest it. We wouldn't have survived the ice time like that.
Guys, the OP hasn't responded. Why are you all so serious now, this might just be a troll lol
The reasoning for me to split my meals all over the day is so i won't be feeling hungry. Plus i would never be able to pull off a clean meal with all my calories per day (non cheap calories) in a whole sitting.I eat 4 eggs at 1pm (280cals), after that I usually wait untill 7pm (after my training). Then I drink a liter of milk (630 cals), in a few minutes. After this I go prepare my meal (eg a huge spaghetti, potatoes with a shit ton of meat or two pizzas) which fills the rest of my 3000 cals (so that makes 2100 calories). I eat this in one sitting which means I eat everything except the 4 eggs in a time span of 90 minutes. Even of you have to eat 1000 calories more you can still eat an extra meal at 10 pm.

You'll feel more energetic and sharp if you're a bit hungry. And the best part is that when you do eat, it'll be epic. Every day the meal will feel like a feast, extremely satisfying.

I recently started taking rilatin which reduces appetite and eating the huge meal only slowed down a bit, it's still not a problem as I have a whole evening to slowly eat or to split my meal in smaller parts.
I'm not an expert, but from what I've heard skipping meals puts your body into energy saving mode. You will lose weight for now but some time later you will pile the pounds back onYes, from "what you've heard." It's bullshit. Look at people who have no food - are they fat? Do you actually gain weight if you don't eat? Wonder why Africans aren't obese? Again, we're talking minimalistic "savings" at best, if it happens at all: it'll be saving worth of 0-20 calories. Your body isn't magic, it will not get energy from outer space, meaning it'll use the fat reserves in your body.
Also you tend to binge on food if you don't eat regularly

"Eating good" before you exercise? That sounds fucked up, I think you're the exception rather than the rule. Everyone else I know would never want to eat before gymming or doing sports.This depends on the time you eat , it is highly recommended to eat before gym/sports but not just before, 2 hours or 90 minutes before is pretty good.
xant, you are leaving the physiological and biomechanical aspects out of your argumentation, and seem to be doing just what you are accusing others of: repeating what you have read.The physiological and biomechanical aspects are behind the links, which is much more than can be said for the evidence of the others, who have provided no sources.
depending on the training level and the kind of food you are talking about, your warrior diet is ok, and follows basic aspects of any scientifically supported diet, its highly unpractical for a fat man to try it however.
also no rules: getting in your calories the way you are atm, is a good way to get yourself a nice heap of typ 2 diabetes :/
i did everything you guys said im still fat
i did everything you guys said im still fatThe trick is to take a knife and cut of your genitalia, or is that the trick to keeping a light voice? Eh, just try it out.
The physiological and biomechanical aspects are behind the links, which is much more than can be said for the evidence of the others, who have provided no sources.
How is it highly unpractical for a fat man?
Wat, he doesn't say that protein is bad for you. Obviously it isn't; he's not a hypocrite.
You can appeal to authority all you like, but it's very weak argumentation when you don't provide any proof for your 'facts' other than "i've studied this."
he accuses many diets of being driven by marketing while he is doing exactly that.I suggest you read up on some logic as well. There is no contradiction in what he is doing and saying.
and I am not appealing to authority as an argument, I am the authority. take it or leave it, but if this topic is of interest to you, read up on it. Its what I have done with your provided link as well. Unfortunately Hofmeklers statements do not comply with the facts.
There were tests on soldiers (they can be tested legally in inhumane conditions) where they ate very little, did heavy physical activity and kept slep to a minimum. They actually lost weight and gained muscle.Those are just normal conditions for soldiers, but yes, it's just common sense that soldiers doing that stuff will be very fit. Even though according to some fitness gurus they should be either fat because their body is in ENERGY SAVING MODE and gets more fat from Cthulhu or lose all of their muscles because... well, because.
I suggest you read up on some logic as well. There is no contradiction in what he is doing and saying.
And no, I am the authority. You are wrong. Read up on it if it interests you. Hofmeklers statements are all facts.
its cool, keep using cherokee hair tampons.Once again you surprise with the amount of evidence you bring to bear against the arguments provided. Keep up the good work.
*Rant about something that wasn't said*
We are talking about fat storage and burning. Nobody said anything about burning muscle in this topic, until you that is. You sure beat the hell out of that straw man though :rolleyes:You claimed eating 6 meals is beneficial for weightloss because your digestive system boosts your metabolism leading to. Faster weight loss.
Once again you surprise with the amount of evidence you bring to bear against the arguments provided. Keep up the good work.
haha, just like any internet debate seems to end: no you! :mrgreen:You can say "no you", but you'd be wrong. I've provided links, no_rules has made plenty of long posts... you're the one whose only argument is "I've studied this TRUST ME."
seriously though. read my posts again if you like: I am neither attacking you, nor saying that the approach you are supporting is all wrong.
However fitness Gurus tend to misuse technical terms in a context supporting their products (in this case his diet), generally oversimplifying and tending their cause.
Sometimes grossly focusing on one aspect and (criminally) neglecting all the others linked to it. One thing you can be sure of: using a guru's statement is not a supporting argument.
Btw, I am not sure how old you are, but evolving interest in training physiology and trophology where the things that made me go into medicine. If you are interested in this shit, you might want to consider a career here as well, its fucking awesome seeing how all the pieces fall into place.
They aren't. Starvation is a bad way to lose weight, don't do it. People who starve themselves basically just fuck up their metabolism, so yeah, you can lose all your weight, but as soon as you go back to a normal diet "oh shit where did all these kg's come from?". You'll also feel like utter shit so, yeah, don't do it.
here, have a link that's posted as a sticky on /fit/

Holy shit.oh please xant.
You actually fucking think Poophammer is serious?
No.
Agree with this
If you don't have regular meals your body will wonder if you will even get another meal anytime soon and go into starvation mode. You will slow your metabolism so that you burn fewer calories during the day
oh please xant.
this is now not even to do with poophammers autism anymore.
if they did think it wasn't serious, they still gave advice that was serious.
Weight loss needs to be practical. If you go for 1 meal a day and you're a fatty you will have shit tonnes of snacks before and after the meal. When you do have the meal you will end up consuming more calories than regular meals spaced out because you will be so hungryThe 1 meal a day diet is the most practical for anyone, fatty or not. You won't end up buying the no-nos from a store and then feel guilty and stop dieting because you cheated, because you can eat the foods you crave any time you want. You won't snack after the meal because you've just eaten: you eat it in the evening, 7-10 hours after waking up. And no, you won't end up consuming more calories in a single meal than several spaced out meals. That is pretty much impossible. You can eat two pizzas and still be about 500-1000 calories from daily recommended calories, which means you could eat a third one without gaining any weight. Whereas when you eat several meals, none of them really satisfy you, and you end up feeling half-hungry and unsatisfied the whole day, making it more likely that you'll overeat and/or resort to snacks.
Having a weight loss routine makes it easier too, it just becomes natural to live healthily because everything is planned out for a set time
BTW water is awesome. You shouldn't really drink any calories at all. Get used to drinking only water and you will get to like it
We might disagree but I think science is on the side of regular meals, but even if not the other benefits make it worth having regular meals imo (less temptation to snack, routine etc)
muscle + fat = bear, and who wouldn't want to be a bearAre you encouraging panos' eating habits?
P.P.S. can anyone explain what this means:(click to show/hide)
Sources:(click to show/hide)
Sources, in no particular order:(click to show/hide)
tl:dr
Some of the research said there were no significant changes in weight between methods if the caloric intake was maintained, however it mentioned cardiovascular disease risk factors and negative change in hematologic variables in a 1 meal per day diet.
Some of the research on obese subjects showed positive weight loss in increased meal frequency.
Some of the research said that there was positive changes in weight loss on a more frequent meal diet, mostly done on women and children.
Some of the research found there was no corelation between metabolism "speed" and meal frequency.
Most of the research found that increased meal frequency is beneficial for regulation of insulin, lipid and colesterol levels.
Most of the research concluded that the results were influenced too much by caloric intake missreporting by the subjects.
Most of the research cited a multitude of other factors that could influence the results.
Most of the research concluded that eating more meals was highly recommended for non-insulin dependant diabetes patients.
Most of the research said that more research was needed.
My conclusion: If you are a healthy subject, eating more frequently or eating 1 meal a day will not matter in terms of weight loss if the caloric intake is the same, however eating more meals per day prevents cardiovascular diseases, maintains leves or essential fats, insulin and colesterol levels. On non-healthy (obese) women and children, studies found that eating more meals a day is beneficial to weightloss, but i would take this information with a grain of salt because: missreporting, outside factors.
tl:dr of the tl:dr - Eating 1 meal, or a lot, is the same in terms of weightloss if the caloric intake is the same. However, eating more frequently is healthier than eating 1 meal a day. On obese subjects the weight loss benefits of meal frequency are still debated.
P.S. if someone can find me meal frequency research on male obese subjects, that would be great for more insight
P.P.S. can anyone explain what this means:(click to show/hide)

You have nothing other than information from "experts" that conflicts with information from other "experts" Xant. And you DON'T know someone who lost weight by eating 5 Big Macs a day unless they were already eating 6 Big Macs a day. Your 1 meal a day plan is scientifically proven by doctors to be bad for your overall health, regardless of whether you can lose weight by doing so. As was said earlier, losing weight is a matter of taking less calories in than you expend. What matters here is doing it in a healthy way that isn't going to kill you just as fast as being overweight will. I really don't care what you do to your own body, but I do care when you tell someone else to do something that is going to end up with them having to deal with Type 2 Diabetes.
No, it isn't scientifically proven by doctors to be bad for your overall health.
Morning plasma glucose concentrations were significantly greater in subjects when they were consuming 1 meal/d compared to when they were consuming 3 meals/d (Table 1). When consuming 1 meal/d the subjects exhibited poorer glucose tolerance as indicated by a significantly greater and more prolonged elevation of plasma glucose concentrations compared to subjects consuming 3 meals/d diet (Fig. 1). Fasting plasma insulin concentrations were not significantly affected by meal frequency (Table 1), and there were no significant effects of diet on insulin responses to glucose during the OGTT, although there was a trend towards a delayed insulin response when subjects consumed 1 meal/d

Hyperglycemia is the technical term for high blood glucose (blood sugar). High blood glucose happens when the body has too little insulin or when the body can't use insulin properly.
Long-term complications
Untreated hyperglycemia can cause long-term complications. These include:
Cardiovascular disease
Nerve damage (neuropathy)
Kidney damage (nephropathy) or kidney failure
Damage to the blood vessels of the retina (diabetic retinopathy), potentially leading to blindness
Clouding of the normally clear lens of your eye (cataract)
Feet problems caused by damaged nerves or poor blood flow that can lead to serious infections
Bone and joint problems, such as osteoporosis
Skin problems, including bacterial infections, fungal infections and nonhealing wounds
Teeth and gum infections
Emergency complications
If blood sugar rises high enough or for a prolonged period of time, it can lead to two serious conditions.
Diabetic ketoacidosis. Diabetic ketoacidosis develops when you have too little insulin in your body. Without enough insulin, sugar (glucose) can't enter your cells for energy. Your blood sugar level rises, and your body begins to break down fat for energy.
This process produces toxic acids known as ketones. Excess ketones accumulate in the blood and eventually "spill over" into the urine. Left untreated, diabetic ketoacidosis can lead to diabetic coma and be life-threatening.
Diabetic hyperosmolar syndrome. This condition occurs when people produce insulin, but it doesn't work properly. Blood glucose levels may become very high — greater than 600 mg/dL (33 mmol/L). Because insulin is present but not working properly, the body can't use either glucose or fat for energy.
Glucose is then dumped in the urine, causing increased urination. Left untreated, diabetic hyperosmolar syndrome can lead to coma and life-threatening dehydration. Prompt medical care is essential.] Emergency complications

Some of the research said that there was positive changes in weight loss on a more frequent meal diet, mostly done on women and children.Sorry, I'm way too tired and in no mood to write a proper reply with good.arguments, but basically this had me stop reading
I did it by eating 4 meals a day, keeping my fat intake to under 3 grams per day the first week, and under 10 grams per day for the rest of the time.Why do you cut on your fats? Way to go if you want your libido to drop and your mood to turn bad. Somebody wrote something about carbs not being bad, well let's be clear: carbs are empty calories and your body is able to put them into blood sugar much faster than proteins or fats. Carbs raise your insulin while fat's don't and fats are used in the synthesis of numerous hormones other applications like cell regeneration.

It isn't a little bit higher when you eat 1 meal a day. It is significantly higher.
What is the result of untreated hyperglycemia? From the Mayo clinic.

When it finally leads to diabetes:
So yeah, if you read all of that and still want to follow Xant's once a day diet, be my guest.
In subjects without diabetes,
blood glucose levels typically peak approximately 1
hour after the start of a meal and return to preprandial levels
within 2 to 3 hours; 2-hour postprandial blood glucose
levels rarely exceed 140 mg/dL (39,40). Therefore, the
consensus panel recommends a treatment-targeted 2-hour
postprandial blood glucose level of <140 mg/dL
Of patients with diabetes, 10% have peripheral neuropathy at the time of their diagnosis, suggesting that axonal injury may occur early in the course of glucose intolerance. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) revised diagnostic criteria to recognize IGT (a serum glucose between 140 and 200 mg/dl in a 2-h oral glucose tolerance test [OGTT]) as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease independent of development of diabetes.
A total of 13 of the 107 patients had diabetes, whereas 36 (34%) had IGT, nearly three times the prevalence in age-matched control subjects (P < 0.01). OGTT was often elevated, whereas both fasting plasma glucose and HbA1c were normal.
Hyperglycemia, or high blood sugar (also spelled hyperglycaemia or hyperglycæmia, not to be confused with hypoglycemia) is a condition in which an excessive amount of glucose circulates in the blood plasma. This is generally a glucose level higher than 11.1 mmol/l (200 mg/dl)
The more you eat, the higher your blood sugar will rise.
Your blood sugar level is highest an hour or two after you eat, and then begins to fall. You can help lessen the amount of change in your blood sugar levels if you eat at the same time every day, eat several small meals a day or eat healthy snacks at regular times between meals.
evolutioni'm dying
A 2012 study by Japanese researchers at Waseda University in Tokyo showed that when mice fed one high-fat meal per day were compared with mice fed the same amount of high-fat food split up into two daily meals, the mice who ate once a day gained more weight and had higher levels of insulin in their blood... The scientists suggest that these findings might apply to humans as well.
evolution
A study published in the April 2007 edition of the "American Journal of Clinical Nutrition" examined the effect of one meal a day vs. three. The researchers found that the healthy participants who ate a single meal a day did lose fat mass, but they were hungry. Moreover, they had increased blood pressure and total cholesterol and a decreased cortisol concentration. Cortisol, a steroid hormone, causes your body to send more glucose into your bloodstream when you are under stress.

Hunter gatherer humans had a life expectancy below 30?Not that it's relevant, but you're wrong:

Now that we've been over that, even if the life expectancy of hunter-gatherers was below 30 (which, to reiterate, it wasn't), it'd be irrelevant. Humans have been hunter-gatherers for most of the two million years we've existed, our bodies, therefore, have adapted for their lifestyle.
Everything you say is just an opinion.
Sure, everything is just an opinion, when you ignore the actual data...I'm glad you finally realized that.
why is this topic 9 pages long
A 2014 review described that studies done in animal models have shown fasting improves indicators of health—blood pressure, insulin sensitivity, and inflammation—likely through adaptive cellular responses to better handle stress.
According to a 2014 review of the scientific literature, intermittent fasting can cause weight loss of 3-8% over 3-24 weeks.[6]
A study from the University of Ottawa found that on a low-calorie diet, there was no weight loss advantage to splitting calories among six meals rather than three.
A second study found that switching from three daily meals to six did not boost calorie-burning or fat loss. In fact, the researchers concluded, eating six meals a day actually made people want to eat more.
And a research review reached no conclusions about whether meal frequency helps or hurts with weight loss.
This study was published in 2014 and compared eating breakfast vs skipping breakfast in 283 overweight and obese adults (1).
After a 16-week study period, there was no difference in weight between groups.
This study shows that it doesn’t make any difference for weight loss whether you eat or don’t eat breakfast, although there may be some individual variability.
In fact, the evidence actually shows that short-term fasts increase metabolic rate.
This is due to a drastic increase in blood levels of norepinephrine (noradrenaline), which tells the fat cells to break down body fat and stimulates metabolism (26, 27).
Studies show that fasting for up to 48 hours can actually boost metabolism by 3.6-14% (27, 28). However, if you fast much longer than that, the effect can reverse and metabolism can go down compared to baseline (29).
One study showed that fasting every other day for 22 days did not lead to a decrease in metabolic rate, but the participants lost 4% of their fat mass, which is impressive for a period as short as 3 weeks (30).
Oh, 2013. Back when the "eat 5-6 meals a day" broscience was the obvious accepted truth. Only one warrior of science dared to question it: Xant. He was ridiculed, for he was ahead of his time, just like Galileo.
Back then, you had to search for the science and research to figure out it was wrong. These days, a simple Google search brings up a thousand sites talking about how fasting is beneficial and there's no scientific backing for the 5-6 meals a day thing.

lol wtf why is this topic getting posts now
im not actually fat
Since last time someone replied in this thread before today I lost over 85 pounds of sweet, delicious fat. I actually may become terminally ill.We can only hope.
Wow you must've been fat as fuck then Leshma :lol:
Edit: Bringing sugar back into my diet is not an option because I feel like shit when I taste anything with white sugar added. Feeling severely dehydrated and no matter how much water I drink it doesn't get better for half a day after taking sugar. Also it doesn't taste good anymore. Eating more is also hard because of underlying medical issue (when too full I get all sort of medical issues).

We got the same build. High five. Though been a few years since I measured my height but I remember it being around 185.
Would you also say you at some point grew a neckbeard and did in fact wear a fedora or another fashionable statement hat?

Just eat sushi all the time and the parasites will keep you thin!
I could do that, sushi is fucking top tier. Fish is best food
Yeah I love Japanese cuisine if I had to pick one type of food to eat for the rest of my life it would be Japanese.
I went to one of those fancy restaurants where the sushi/maki goes by on a little river in boats and god damn it was amazing

You probably eat that dirty fermented fish don't you
If you could only eat one dish for the rest of your life, it would be pizza. Every topping is possible.

Although, I've heard from people who ate it that it's actually rather mild in taste and smell if prepared properly.

Secret strat is to open it under water i believe, that stops the explosion of stink. I can only imagine the taste being rather salty, probably really good with hard bread and taters.Bucket of water and not in closed spaces :D

Always take that stuff outside when you like your home!
Step 1: Open smelly fish can
Step 2: Rub smelly fish into carpet
Step 3: Leave Gravoth's house and never return to Sweden
Implying ive got carpets. I like to live simple, besides it probably wouldnt stand a chance against my man-stink.
I really like carpet on my feet

Don't think Scandinavians eat that nowadays, but I've heard that Americans whose ancestors came from Scandinavia have festivals where they eat fermented fish. I think those festival are taking place somewhere in Minnesota.
James, are you from Quebec?
