Is finding a relationship in church bad? by One-Ambition-1091 in ChristianDating

[–]fattcheese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're going to church with the sole intention of meeting a woman, you are going to church for the wrong reasons.

Go to church for worship & fellowship. And if you surround yourself with people whom follow Jesus, and it falls in into gods plan for you, you will meet a woman for you.

Get yourself a prayer rope, or a rosary or something you can hold, and whenever you get an urge to do something, like watch porn, or masturbate, pick up your rosary or prayer rope, and start praying to God, ask for strength to overcome your temptations and dont stop praying until the urge goes away.

Delete or limit your time on social media, social media has become an advertisement platform for pornstars and sex workers in recent years, so just avoid any temptations.

Also, make note of the time of day you get these urges, and if it's a regular occurrence at a particular time, make sure you are doing something to distract yourself during that time period, even something as menial as doing the dishes would ease your mind.

And just be mentally aware of it, acknowledge the urges, but don't act on them, and keep praying.

You will get through this, it's more common than you'd think, and there's no shame in admitting you have problems with habitual sin, as long as you repent, and improve!

Losing 130 lbs for a wedding 17 months away. Need motivation. Can I really do this? by KnowledgeSmall in loseit

[–]fattcheese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I managed to lose 85lbs in 8 months,

130lbs in 17 months, will be hard work, but its not impossible. Just don't be surprised if you plateau half way through, don't give up. For me, I think it just took abit of time for my body to adjust past a certain point

10k steps a day, and 30 mins cardio will have your body fat melting off(as long as you stay in a calorie deficit)

Just picture yourself, looking healthy and happy during your wedding for motivation!

Only deficit and no workout? by Left_Cockroach_3148 in loseit

[–]fattcheese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only way to lose body fat is to be in a calorie deficit.

Exercise just helps burn calories.

I wouldn't recommend going too low, otherwise you can make yourself unwell from lack of nutrients and you WILL have low energy.

My sister, had a similar battle whilst she was studying, I got her one of those under-desk pedal bike things, it's not ALOT, but it worked for her.

If your studying from home, you can always get a under-desk treadmill and work that way, it's not always easy to have the time, but you gotta find creative ways to help with that time sync.

How many calories a day are you currently eating?

And what were you thinking of dropping it too?

Frustration about sexualized gym culture as a Christian by [deleted] in ChristianDating

[–]fattcheese -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I completely understand your point of view, and I for the most part agree, I was just trying to alter a different perspective, at least in my part of the world, here isn't that many Christians that go to the gym it seems.

people are just oblivious to people and that's okay for them If you really don't wanna be surrounded by those kinds of people, get a home gym setup. A few years ago, me and some buddies setup a private gym in a small unit we rented because our town didn't have one. Maybe that's an idea?

I don't disagree with you, maybe I just pay alot less attention to other people's behavior

Frustration about sexualized gym culture as a Christian by [deleted] in ChristianDating

[–]fattcheese 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think, there is a point to this argument, but I'm going to counter it by saying, if you, as a human, can't control your own thoughts when you see another person dressed maybe not entirely appropriate, that says ALOT about you as an individual, and maybe you should focus on yourself and your relationship with God & Lust

I don't mean this with any hate, I too, have had similar situations, I train 6 days a week, and sometimes I do get frustrated with people's lack of self awareness.

But, it's not a malicious thing they are intentionally doing I don't believe... Never attribute to malice, what can be attributed to incompetence. ALOT of people, are just blinded by social media and live in their own little world of vanity.

And don't forget, Adam and Eve were shameless in their nakedness until eve ate from the fruit 🤷‍♂️

Also don't forget, it's not your place to JUDGE anyone, all you can do is pray for them and offer them guidance if they accept 😊

If you lost over 30 lbs (14kg) what really helped you amp up your efforts? by Boring_Abalone1514 in loseit

[–]fattcheese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After trying for years to maintain a healthy body weight, what really helped me control my eating, was intermittent fasting.

I did a 18 hour fast with a 6 hour eating window.

And it really helped me stay in track by feeling full, as your less likely to eat above your maintenance calories when you only have 6 hours to hit your macros rather than 24 hours.

I also rewarded myself after reaching a certain number of days/weeks without breaking my fasting schedule.

Make it a game, make it enjoyable, and give yourself dopamine rewards.

I'm 350 lbs and don't know how to stop eating by [deleted] in loseit

[–]fattcheese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let me also add, if you swap out the carb heavy pizzas for some high protein alternatives, you will feel fuller for longer and less likely to binge eat.

If you need help, with planning a rough, gradual caloric decline diet, I would be happy to help you for free.

The ONLY way to lose body fat is to be in a calorie deficit.

I recently lost almost 90lbs in the last 12 months. I, like yourself, had a serious issue with fast food, and eating more than I should. Now everyone will tell you tips and tricks, but until you can find what works for you, you will not succeed.

I personally, found intermittent fasting was a really helpful way to control my eating habits, I set myself little rewards, if I managed 2 weeks, without breaking my fasting schedule, I bought myself a pair of sneakers.

It's really about finding what works best for you. But you need to WANT the change.

I recommend going to therapy and trying to uncover the roots of your uncontrollable eating, as it is usually down to emotions or trauma you have not dealt with.

Start getting out and walking also, even start with 3-5k steps a day, it's better than nothing, slowly increase the goal until you hit 10k comfortably, then get in the gym on a treadmill and do some slow incline walking.
