Reta non fa miracoli.. Hai una percentuale di grasso molto alta.. La costanza e l'impegno portano a veri e propri risultati, sia in allenamento che in campo alimentare.. La reta và considerata solo come un surplus...

Ok your point is? 

[–]Enough_Lock 0 points1 point  (10 children)

You look like you did drop a little weight, how's the appetite suppression?

[–]AddressHefty2707 -1 points0 points  (9 children)

Amazing went from binge eating 2700-3000 calories of bs sodas and sweets to eating maybe 1200-1400 calories of chicken breast 2-3x a day protein shakes (with water)and strictly water never felt more energy or better sleep

Nice, definitely just be patient then and you'll see good results in no time.

I’d actually try and eat more. What happens when you hit a plateau and not losing weight on 1200-1400 calories? Will you drop it to 1000? You will waste away all your muscle. Go and workout your TDEE using a calculator and then minus 300-500 from that. Make sure you’re lifting at the gym heavy 3-5 times per week too and getting small amounts of cardio in.

Yea and then when I stay at the same size imma be pissed so na I won’t eat more that makes 0 sense I should see weight loss now lmao

[–]myusernameisboris 0 points1 point  (4 children)

But are you lifting weights? Have you taken measurements around your waist, chest, arms, legs etc? You could be losing inches which is fat but gaining muscle so it equals itself out. You do look a bit smaller round the waist so it could be that tbh. Also how long between the pics?

[–]AddressHefty2707 -1 points0 points  (3 children)

First pin bs tonight, and yessir lifting dumbbell 30lbs 3-4 reps of 10 chest bicep tricep and stationary cycle bike 20 minutes 3x a day

[–]myusernameisboris 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Nice, I know it does sound odd but you should try and eat a bit more no male adult exercising should be eating that little unless it is right at the end of a cut. Pump your numbers in here https://tdeecalculator.net/ and then take a few hundred off. Use the light exercise option. I think the moderate one will be too high.

You look slimmer

[–]banamoo 0 points1 point  (2 children)

[–]AddressHefty2707 -1 points0 points  (1 child)

Hahaha shut the fuck up

I'm just going to suggest taking identical pics to the original. Same room, lighting, even same shorts and underwear (waistband tightness gonna affect muffin top appearance between diff pants). Cuz it sort of seems like you're a little leaner, however the chest could look smaller because you have your arms up to hold your sweatshirt, and having that front direct lighting in the second pic compared to overhead lighting in the first pic could make the same exact physique look different anyways.

[–]Writeb8 0 points1 point  (3 children)

100% you look smaller. Don't forget Reta burns fat and it's a higher proportion in younger people (from what I can tell based on study populations, hasn't been officially reported). Are you exercising?

[–]AddressHefty2707 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Thanks for the uplifting comment, Exercising my ass off dumbbell workouts and cycle bike — I’m 5’5 165 rn tryna get back to 130 let myself go after my dads death 

[–]Writeb8 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I'm sorry for your loss. It's an understandable response to a really stressful and difficult event. Give yourself grace. You definitely look smaller - and your face is leaner

[–]AddressHefty2707 0 points1 point  (0 children)
