I'm long past tilting at that particular windmill though.

I also enjoyed when people would say that they don't want to get "too bulky, just kind of clean like this" and then post a picture of a dude who clearly has been lifting weights for years.

I think I missed the no carb thread madness, but I don't remember much about W&W beyond a vague recollection that there was a lot of dumb loving drama that I got burned out on. Like, fine, if a handful of people want to hate the gently caress out of me because I suggested some simplified barbell routine to a beginner... uh OK I guess?

I actually like the red title though, it replaced one I got completely out of nowhere from a maniac in Automotive Insanity that involved... Honda cars and jerking off? :iiam:

When we got a weight loss challenge going at work the people who won did it, but the idea of giving up pizza is something I can't fathom, as goonish as that sounds.

I lost 20 pounds mainly because I just ate less, stopped drinking pop, tried harder to resist candy and donuts, and ran on the elliptical at my Crunch gym a lot. Of course now I've gained all that weight back and its winter where I don't feel motivated to do anything.

Same.

I dropped a ton of weight and through various stresses in life gained most of it back now.

Looking forward to 2018 to get in shape. (again.)

Its funny how the body adapts to not eating like complete poo poo. It really doesnt take much to drop weight especially if you eat like crap and then stop eating like crap :v:

I always liked that the biggest sin the Fitness Log Cabin could come up with was lifting for aesthetics.

Ab chat. When I start cutting weight to be beach ready (usually March), I just cut out lunch and replace it with whey shakes to help me get to the 1 gram of protein for every pound of body weight metric until my body fat reduces down to 10%. I'm lucky that I have the body and metabolism type that I never really get above 15% bf anyway, so I'm never sure if what I do would work for others.

I always imagine someone I look up to standing at the end of my bed super disappointed when I don't want to get up. Sounds really dumb but it works. One of my mates I used to train with had this quote
“I have to go to work — as a human being. What do I have to complain of, if I’m going to do what I was born for — the things I was brought into the world to do? Or is this what I was created for? To huddle under the blankets and stay warm?” On a plaque in his bed room.

Regarding motivation, eventually this universe will be nothing but a black void. All of your accomplishments and happiness will have been forgotten billions and billions of years past. So don't worry about how fat you're going to get because one day all of your body will be dust and then eventually not even that.

My favorite M&Ms were the cinnamon ones they had around Christmas like 7 years ago. They were unbelievably good and I must've eaten 4 bags over the course of that winter. I like the peanut butter ones best of the regular varieties, but my wife's aunt gets me a bag of the standard peanut M&Ms every year and I'm not gonna complain about that.

Oh and regarding keeping junk food in the house, don't. If you want to keep something around for cheat days, make it something that takes time and/or effort to prepare. A bag of Doritos or M&Ms is actually bad because it's easy to lose track of how much you've eaten or to get into that "just one more" trap. Something that requires you to turn on the oven is better because you're not just gonna grab one or two of whatever it is while you're passing the fridge. I typically only keep light popcorn and a pint or two of Halo Top in the house during the year but we're in the post-Christmas "Everybody Bought Me Candy" phase and I have no willpower and my reaction to just giving it away can be described as Gollum-esque.

Eh back in the day I had a good deal going waking up at 6ish and getting things done. I'm someone who needs to work out before work or after midnight, and having a 9-5 job doesnt allow for midnight lifting sessions.

I’m in week six of keto. It’s fine. The first few days I was miserable while my body adjusted, but now the worst part is having to cook and do dishes all the time. I didn’t really need to lose any weight, so it’s more of an experiment to see how my body changes. I’m down ~7 pounds of real weight right now.

Lifting on Keto sucks. My muscular endurance is lovely, as is max effort. Just before I went on vacation I was benching 225x6 for three sets. Now hitting 210x6 for multiple sets is a struggle. Deadlift and squat have dropped too, though not as severely. When it’s time to taper off in a few more weeks I’ll probably try cyclic keto and see if that makes lifting more tolerable.

It's like 5 bucks on the Steam sale if you're interested.

edit: for workout chat I just run and then run some more. I lost 35 pounds in 2015/2016 by doing this and eating less food but I gained like 20 back :(
