if I were to starve myself, how exactly would I do it. I've been drinking coffee to curb my hunger and a cup of green tea a day, along with walking about an hour a day for cardio. I'm 18 by the way. I realize that this isn't a good way to lose weight, and there are more safe methods I know of, but I'm kinda resorting to this. should I literally not eat anything during the day, or just eat certain things occasionally? help pls

A lot of people on here will be all for the starve yourself to lose the maximum amount of weight idea. Realistically you can eat less, be at a calorie deficit for the day, and lose weight that way. Cutting out food is an option but you're better off sparing your body the trouble and eating healthier and less than normal.

I guess I should actually answer the question though. You don't need to starve yourself to lose weight. I'm 6'1 and 62kg. I eat heaps of food but its good food and I balance it with exercise. Here's my average diet if you're interested

>Breakfast
Porridge with (alittle) sugar, cinammon and whatever fruit I may or may not have. One cup of black coffee (French Press)

>Lunch
A wrap with lettuce, tomato, beetroot, fried egg, whatever else I may have

>Dinner
Usually pasta, fish or chicken breast

I chew gum during lectures as it contains my hunger till lunch or dinner. I run 4-6kms 2 or 3 times a week and walk or cycle everywhere (don't own a car)

Just eat fruits and vegetables all you want. They're so low cal you'll lose weight naturally

>> No.10522078

Just eat things like boiled eggs (1-2 per day) or celery (without dips/cheeses). Just eat enough to take away the pains, don't actually get full. The eggs are good for protein, but too many are bad. Celery has no caloric gain, so you can eat as much as you want, but eating enough to fill you up will give you the runs.

>> No.10522089

Dude, just stop eating carbs. eat vegetables and meats in abundance. You will lose weight if you cut sugar from your diet. You NEED sugar to live though - it is your brain's fuel - eat a few fruits a day and ONLY fruit to meet this need.

my advice: as many salads/cooked low carb veggies as you want(no beans, peas, etc.), lots and lots of meat, 3 normal sized fruits or if you're doing like berries a proper serving.

No sugary drinks - these are the #1 reason people are fat these days. Goes right to fat.

No rice, potatoes, etc.

Starving yourself is dumb and you'll just gain weight again.

>> No.10522094

Instead of walking an hour a day, do some short sessions of squats, push ups and crunches or planks. You won't have enough energy to lift weights, but activating the large muscle groups in your body will help it burn more fat than any amount of cardio. Even 15 minute sessions are enough to really help you out, and you can let your body's hormones handle the work.

unless you want to become flabby and useless, eat enough protein (for you probably like 0.5g of protein per lb of body weight will do)

not necessarily - eating a shit ton of sausage with all the shit that goes into them isn't going to do anyone any good. i think eating lean cuts of meat is a better idea, and without the skin of course. chicken breasts, ham joints, salmon fillets, tins of tuna, beef steaks etc. the nice 'natural' types of meat i guess you could say. not shitty meat products.

Yes obviously. Also do not take all of this advice - canned tuna in abundance will literally kill you. It's far higher in mercury than the average cut of fish. You should limit wild game and fish in general for toxin reasons. Lean beef and chicken is your best bet - stock up on skinless chicken breasts. If you're lazy cook a weeks worth up in the oven at a time and eat the shit out of them. I'm not kidding. Eat as much as you would normally eat, except all in meat and leafy greens.

Oh, look, it's the dumb meat brigade. No, if anything you should be loading up on carbs like potatoes which are filling and fiberous, and low in total calories. Try to eat 1500 calories of potatoes and 1500 calories of chicken and tell me which one is more filling. And you don't need to actively starve yourself if you just eat this way instead of like that fatass Atkins who died 100 pounds overweight of a heart attack

The meat thing works if you're actually fat. Calorie counting starts to matter a lot more when you're worried about body fat %, but when you're 50 pounds over weight cutting out all non-fruit carbs is easily the best way to lose weight. period. end of story. this is my job.

It's because there are a lot of different opinions on how to best lose weight OP. Some favor a balanced diet below maintenance calories, some favor eating a low carb high protein diet to help maintain muscle mass, some dont give a shit and just starve themselves on 500 calories a day, and some will hop on drugs like dnp to burn fat off. How much do you weigh and how much do you want to lose?

>> No.10522214

>>10522181
Look, man. It's not about protein or carbs, it's about calories. That's the most important thing when it comes to losing weight. That's why I recommend eating a lot of whole plant foods like potatoes and minimizing anything else. That way you don't need to obsessively count calories. Load up your plate with potatoes, greens, beans, grains, anything whole and unprocessed is good. Bread is processed so calorically it's a bit more dense. Soups are really great for this sort of thing if you like them. Lettuce wraps are nice with hummus and vegetables, etc

>> No.10522241

>>10522209
Cutting out most anything will result in initial fat loss. If this is your job you should know this. What keeps weight off long term is a healthy diet founded on whole plant foods, not calorie counting. Calorie counting just does not work for most people because they end up fucking it up.

Unfortunately, there isn't really a consensus for the best diet. For a long time it was all about complex carbohydrates, with small portions of anything else and very low fat. Now people have realised you can get much better results by cutting most carbs, upping protein and keeping a decent level of good fats.

The only thing everyone agrees on is that non-starchy vegetables are great, and can be had in large quantities, and that some level of protein is good.

Cutting sugar to just what's needed, and getting it from sources that also provide other nutrients (so berries rather than cakes) and reducing your reliance on condiments will help. Also, most people consume far too much sodium (salts). Watch your intake of salt, especially in the days leading up to beach days/getting laid. It helps immensely for keeping off water weight and making you look more cut than you really are.

FROM THE FIT WIKI, WHY YOU SHOULDN'T STARVE YOURSELF

Your metabolism slows down. Your body will burn fewer calories to maintain itself, and you will feel awful. This is bad for weight loss because as soon as you quit starving yourself, you'll gain weight fast because your metabolism has bottomed out.
You will tend to lose muscle more than fat. Your body will naturally try to conserve fat and cannibalize muscle if it thinks it is outright starving. This is bad because your real goal is FAT loss, not weight loss. This is how you have people who lose 100 pounds and reach their "ideal" weight, but still look amazingly flabby. Also, losing muscle slows your metabolism down even further, amplifying the giant horrible rebound effect once you quit starving yourself.
Your life will be a living hell. You'll eventually feel horrible, the diet will fail, and you'll binge eat and regain everything you lost, plus interest.

this is bullshit. not onlythe keto part,but especially that one day of refeeding would bring your "fat-burning" hormones back up.
these hormones crash mostly because you're getting leaner. to bring them back up completely you'd have to get fat again.

I actually did keto twice, each time losing ~10kg of fat. Main advantage of keto diet is that it suppress hunger almost completely. If IIFYM works for you by all means go for it, keto requires a lot additional preparations and work. AFAIK there is some science behind the so called refeed day (mainly involving leptin levels), then again Im just repeating what Ive heard from others.

Going full crash diet (less than BMR calorie intake) is not advised, still if OP desires to do so, its entirely possible to eat 1 meal every 24-36 hours on keto without going crazy.
