Thanks bro. I do most of what you said except pasta and oatmeal. I do lean grass fed meats, wild fish and seafood, boar bacon, pastured chicken, skim milk, potatoes, white rice, carrots, and apples and berries. I’m still not losing weight fast enough. And I’m still hungry a lot of times :( I have to admit I am doing takeout once a week, but it’s 10,000 times better than before. I’m really hoping to stop even that. I am also under a lot of stress at work and with my living situation. Anyway, do you think oatmeal would do me good?
It doesn't matter what you eat if your goal is to lose weight. It's how much you eat. You sound like the typical fat fuck who uses excuses like "well I eat healthy therefore it's muh metabolism!" when in reality: fatties have faster metabolisms than healthy people.
Just eat less.
I'm still hungry
I don't believe a thing you state about eating as I do, what I do. I'm currently at 1827 calories for today and I'm not hungry. I'm going to have to force myself to eat a bit.
Nah bruh, I’m eating 1700 calories to lose weight. Believe it or not, idgaf, I just asked for advice, you don’t want to help but insult. be an asshole all you want
I eat 1700 calories
Probably too low. That's a good way to lose muscle instead of fat. But you do you. Also if you think I'm being an asshole by telling you how it is then this is going to be impossible for you
What you need to do is find your BMR (There are many calculators, just pick one they'll all be close) and your TDEE. You should eat higher than your BMR and lower than your TDEE otherwise you fuck with your adrenal system and you will start to burn muscle over fat. The corner cases would be people on extreme cuts who have a team behind them with macro-nutrient partitioning and timing. That's not you. So above BMR and below TDEE.
- No man's goal should be to "lose weight". Muscle weighs more than fat does.
What boys/men want is a strong lean body. Not a skinny weak one. If you want to change who you are then the only person stopping that from happening is you. Do pushups, sit ups, lunges, squats...not 1 or 2 but build up so you can actually "work out" for 40 minutes or more a day) Not broken up either, I mean 40 minutes straight.
Or you could just get a job that has you do that for 8-12 hours straight of it. Construction and landscaping come to mind as the easiest ways to get that done. But just pack your own lunch (don't relly on shit food like a gut truck or fast food). Yes, it sucks, yes its absolutely worth it. I did landscaping, demolish, roofing, skeletal multi home construction...years ago and when I was in my youth. The only fat bodies you saw on job sites were those that lasted an hour or less, and the "operators" who couldn't get their asses out of a seat.

" Too lean a diet messes with you (if you sweat at all during the day). I saw guys keep a jar of peanut butter in their lunch pails and eat it with a spoon (or their fingers) just to keep their calories up for the day. Of course they were burning a LOT of calories during the day. Maybe something to consider.
