Can I get some dressing tips for fat men other than lose weight?

I've changed my diet and am being more active, but I'd like to stop looking like shit in the meantime.

Lose weight faster. Clothes just don't look good on fat people at all.

>> No.9927538

Plain coloured t-shirts and plain coloured chinos. Keep them fairly dark.
Maybe longsleeved pullovers for something fractionally more dressy.

Don't shell out money on dress shirts, suits, or raw denim till you're at a good weight.

Dont dress well. Just presentable.
Anything serious right now is just wasted money.
Get down to your goal weight faster. Faster than you thought possible. Only then can you buy actual human clothes.

Only then can you be EFFAY.

>I'd like to stop looking like shit in the meantime.
you can't, period. aspire to dress just ok enough to merge into the background for the next three-four months until the weight is gone and then start buying nice clothes

How do I lose weight faster without an eating disorder or fucking myself up in some way? inb4 >>>/fit/

>>9927538
Didn't plan spending too much in the meantime, I'd just like a few outfits that aren't oversized graphic tee + oversized jeans

How should fat dudes go about sizing their stuff? I usually wear slightly oversized stuff (Ex: I wear 3X shirts by choice, but I can fit a 2X easy. I just don't like having my fat so defined and I doubt others wanna see that shit either). Am I just too self conscious or am I doing the public a favor?

Actually been aiming to eat below my maintenance level, but I'll check the sticky to make sure I'm not fucking it up.

I've given up soda + most other drinks than water (if I really want flavor, I'll just use a flavor packet or something)

I've actually been thinking about cycling. It'll help lose weight and stop being such a fucking shut in.

Current diet isn't static, but I've just recently started counting calories. As of recent, I intake a little over 1.1k a day. I'm 6'2, 300lbs. I plan on getting MyFitnessPal and keeping track starting tomorrow

Wear dark colors but not all black
Light outerwear is slimming
Wear clothes that are your size......that's a very fucking important thing to remember
Nothing looks worse then ill fitting clothes
Bring a few items of clothing to your seamstress
Wait hold up: get a seamstress
Then make sure to get your clothes fit to size
Seams lined up with your shoulders, sleeve length correct
Dude and get slim fitting dress shirts.....they'll look good

You really can't go back from being fat. Your skin is pretty much wrecked. It's sort of like smoking. Once you start and do it for a few years, the damage is done, lungs don't heal, enjoy your poor choices/family.

Only count your calories precisely for a couple of weeks. After that you will have a general idea as to what you should be eating in a day.
Diet should be your primary concern, but also start exercising. Cardio for your health and weights for your sex appeal.

Save the money imo. You won't look good until you've lost most of it and if you're really serious about losing it then you'll be losing it so quickly that all the shit you buy will be unwearable every few weeks.

There are no clothes that look good on fatties. I know this of experience. Fortunately thats a long time ago. What you can change is the impression you make on others.

Tips: Dont wear clothes that are too wide. They make you look like a creep. And they are not hiding anything. If not anything else, tight fitting (not too tight, I guess) clothes give others the impression that you are not ashamed of yourself.

However, you should never accept yourself being a ham planet. Lose weight, become a human being again.

Losing weight can be difficult and demoralising if it doesn't happen as fast as you'd like. Try to dress simply, basic t-shirts, a simple jacket and sweaters/pants. Most of those clothes you can repurpose once you get down to your goal weight. And until then, keep at it! I went from obese to 8% body fat. It's a daunting thing, but nothing's more rewarding, and simple to do as long as you keep at it. Good luck OP!

As a general rule I stuck by to huge success, always overestimate calorie intake because almost everyone eats more than they think.

Good luck though, I lost 50lb in only a few months and all I did was accurately count calories, start running twice a week, and started walking everywhere so you could do it no sweat.

>> No.9933424

Style wise I would stay far away from slim/skinny fit clothing, and instead stick to loose baggy styles (which luckily are currently in fashion trend).

Generally to properly pull this look off I would recommend higher end brands but since you'll hopefully be ditching your current wardrobe in not too long, stick to lower end stuff for now. Now if you really need advice it'd help to know waist/clothing size since at a certain level you are basically prohibited from a lot of the people i'd recommend due to lack of demand.

I'm 105 kg, and i think i look decent with what i wear. I find wide jeans look atrocious on me, so i wear skinnies, tapered shirts to skim my sides but not hug any fat, and wear light open jackets most of the time. I always think that if i could put the effort in dieting and working out instead of clothes i'd be ripped by now.

dude honestly just dress like a fat person for now until you lose weight.

this isn't necessarily a bad thing, but definitely the type of fits you see on /fa/ will NOT look good on you rn

i'd say work on presentability in terms of keeping your hygiene, taking care of your face, and other types of routines to better your appearance. i know you'd like to stop with the graphic tees and oversized jeans, but you can still be a well-dressed fat person by finding flattering t-shirts, getting your jeans tailored, and just looking like an approachable fat person in the meantime. just because you're obese right now does not mean that you'll automatically look unapproachable or unhygienic.

dress like a fat person people wanna be friends with and are not disgusted by. that's all there is to it.

Moot's ghost must hate you. Don't worry about buying all new clothes, just buy new stuff as you progressively lose weight. A t-shirt from now could be a cute oversized top for a gf/bf you get when you're hot. Just get stuff you can use as you lose weight.

don't listen to this fucker ^
if you eat below the maintenance level you will probably lack nutrients that help the metabolism,vitamins etc
I suggest to have a healthy diet with lots of greens and minimal fat, no sugary shit like fizzy drinks that's the worst and exercise a lot not to the point of fainting but a lot
you can also go for a walk every evening if you find jogging exhausting
a friend of mine used to be 260lbs last summer and now he is 180lbs and fit just by replacing hamburgers with salads and endless hours of sitting on a couch with going to the gym on a regular basis
he didn't do anything extreme
you can make it

Do you know what "maintenance level" means? Any given person needs to eat a certain amount to maintain their weight. If you do not eat below this level (or exercise to counter calories consumed), you will NOT lose weight.
