How much have you improved yourself for cosplay? What do you do?

I starve myself. It's honestly the only way you can look remotely like any relevant character without having the amazing genetics required to be naturally that skinny. /coldhardtruth

When I was fat everyone judged the shit out of me despite being happy and having fun. Now people tell me how good i look and praise me for my eating disorder, it kind of turns you into an edgy bitch.

I don't want to be recognized, sorry bud. This thread is infamous for hating fat people, but hating skinny pretty bitches with anorexia even more.

This settles it. You live/hang around utter assholes and so you too have become one. Tsk tsk.

I went from an overweight (for my frame) US 9 to a US 4.

I read the sticky on /fit/ and followed it like a religion.

It was not easy, or fast, but this lifestyle is like second nature to me now and unlike stupid diet tricks and fads, the weight is not coming back.

I didn't get in shape for cosplay - I just did it to be healthier, and put on 20 lbs, while dropping in BF%.
Because of this, I was able to comfortably cosplay from a certain KyoAni show that ended this week.
Just started lifting, and counting calories. Made a world of difference.

>>7122355
You may look skinny, but it's pretty damn unhealthy that way.
Take it from someone who's GF was diagnosed with anorexia.

Cosplay is a nice incentive though and every time I go to the gym it seems less and less of an impossible goal.
Still a long way off and I recognise that, but damn it makes you feel happy as shit.

Why did you post a Planet Fitness commercial? Are you trolling?

>> No.7122436

>>7122424
Also, I used three tools to help me, that I forgot to mention:
1) /fit/ sticky.
2) Cronometer.com (Track calories)
3) This spreadsheet I threw together.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/591u7uupqh8kiin/Body%20Stats%20-%20Protected.xlsx

A body scale is nice to have, but DO NOT solely use that as your one and only point of reference for how healthy you are.
On the other hand, a $15 food scale is a Godsend.

>>7122430
You've never heard of /fit/-Friday, have you?
Mod's approved it, since how we ourselves looks is also relevant to how well we can pull off certain cosplays.

>>7122431
Very true. I was skinnyfat, and always cosplayed suits that covered everything except my face, so as long as I was thin, the rest didn't matter.
Though since I got in shape, it's opened a few more doors with how much I could show off.

>>7122435
Eh, even /fit/ thinks the commercials are funny, despite loathing the gym itself.

>> No.7122441

>>7122430
Your body is part of the costume. Being fat and disgusting will make your costume bad, unless that's how the character is.

Imagine if instead of making fun of ripped guys they would ever DARE to make fun of an overweight female, a gay person or some other minority in their commercials

there would be a HUGE outcry and they wouldnt even be able to run for another fucking day before they would get closed

Why don't you try simply dieting to the weight you desire, and then eat normally? You can be 90 pounds and eat 1600 calories a day if you exercise.

>> No.7122461

>>7122436
No. The mods did not approve /fit/ friday. That's why we haven't had any in about a year. Where have you been?

Ah - I've never really lurked those threads in particular.
It's just what I've heard. Ignore that bit, if it's true.
