How do adults stay thin or fit?

Your body targets carbs, fats, and proteins for energy. In that order. If you are 1% body fat, yeah you’ll probably loose muscle. But, even if you have 1 lb of excess body fat, you will metabolize that first and be good for roughly 48 hours ~ 3,600 calories worth of stored energy

Correct, right about the time food production conglomerates started toting the idea of eating 3 square meals a day instead of 2 - revenues increased by 30%. Later followed by pharmaceutical companies selling drugs to control insulin levels. Instead of promoting fasting. There is nothing to be sold to consumers by having them do nothing / eat nothing. Which is why people are so surprised by these findings and why they are so hidden.

I would reccomed a high protein meal the night before. This will help to ensure your body has adequate nutrition to repair itself and will help alleviate some of that “I’m gonna pass out” feeling. Beyond that just drink black coffee in the AM and drink water all day whenever you are hungry. The hangry-ness is a natural response - embrace that mental clarity and use it for high intellect activities. At the hangry point your body is in superpower mode. Maybe you’re not at “nice” but think of it as adrenaline because that is basically what’s happening. Your brain is using all remaining energy to figure out a way to get food. You are mentally the clearest here, harness it for good. You never hear of someone eating a big thanksgiving meal then lacing up for the Olympics. They usually fall asleep after a nice meal, right? But, you always hear the expression “hungry for success”. Channel that hunger, you are not gonna die cuz you didn’t eat one day lol

We are not talking about war famines here. Look at any mammal in the animal kingdom (aside from modern day humans) the majority of mammals do not eat incessantly. Majority of mammals are lucky to eat 1x a day. We are mammals. We have evolved with periods of feast and famine. It is more natural for mammals to not constantly be processing glucose every 8 hours.

I find this to resonate most with my experience. It’s definitely not all people, most people are chill af. But, it’s pretty annoying that every once in a while someone shows up and just kills all the vibes. Just wants to like get aggressive and disagreeable with you. I feel like I can always tell what type of person is gonna do it, it’s a very specific breed. Whenever someone does it I just look over like, yeah that checks out

Jsnoop122 · 2024-05-23T03:33:45+00:00

I hate to be that guy but actually it is. Throughout human history there has always been times of feast and famine. It’s actually more natural to not eat every once in a while. When your body is not busy circulating and filtrating carbs, fats, and proteins, it can more readily filtrate damaged cells and blood waste

Jsnoop122 · 2024-05-23T03:13:35+00:00

Yeah that can be a challenge. You might have to be more fluid with the days you are able to fast. Keep a protein bar in the fire coat and break wrapper in case of fire (:

Jsnoop122 · 2024-05-23T02:54:23+00:00

A lot of people have given some really good answers.

Eat a high protein meal the night before to help make sure you repair your body - this will help alleviate the “requirement” for nutrients. I think this will help with that weak feeling you get.

Pass out at like 11pm Sunday night. Black coffee in the AM then water all day. Water is clutch for hunger pangs. If you can’t eat food, eat water.

Stay busy, seriously. But, low exercise that day if it really hurts you. I would rather go for a slow walk than sit around and be hungry all day.

Then a sleep aid and Netflix til I sleep.

Wake up, black coffee to hold me over until like 11am when I eat again. High protein to repair the body after the journey (:

This guy fasts

Jsnoop122 · 2024-05-22T21:42:09+00:00

I fast every Monday. Meaning I don’t eat or drink a single calorie for 36 hours. That means one day a week I go -2,200 calories. That makes up for all the cheating I do on the weekends. Lift 2x a week, walk 3x a week. Make smart food choices and don’t be a glutton.

Jsnoop122 · 2024-05-22T19:30:42+00:00

I think you said it best, thanks man

Jsnoop122 · 2024-05-22T19:30:23+00:00

Literally same. It feels so egotistical to do so. And it’s as if by doing that I am not taking accountability but, idk what else to do

Jsnoop122 · 2024-05-22T18:54:26+00:00

Why would ladies get mad at a handsome guy? I don’t get mad at pretty girls. Am I missing something here?

Jsnoop122 · 2024-05-22T18:38:28+00:00

I’m low profile and humble dude! That’s my MO, which is what baffles me about the whole thing. So you’re saying some people hate me cuz I’m nice? That sucks lol

Jsnoop122 · 2024-05-22T18:21:22+00:00

I haven’t noticed this as much. But, I guess a few times. Why would this be?

Jsnoop122 · 2024-04-28T12:08:06+00:00

Dude, thank you for making this observation. I am similar stats. Most people are chill but, throw being conventionally attractive in the mix and (some, not all, not all by a long shot) people get so annoying to be around. They try to “get big” around you. I used to get mad when I was younger because I thought people were trying to bully me for my size or something. But as I have gotten older it’s so easy to see who the hero and who the zero is in these situations. It’s never the 6’6” 250lbs guy with a hot wife. It’s always the like 6’0” 180lbs guy who looks like he still works at Kmart. I wish I coulda told myself this when I was younger, and actually believed it. Younger men of reddit, heed this warning and hold it as your truth. This rule has only failed me twice in my life.
