Yeah definitely, would want to know what it's like to be ripped also haha. But now I'm training for a marathon this november, Penang Bridge (i don't even think i can pass but just gotta try). I don't want to cut carbs or be on a calorie deficit right now, I think after that can start la.

hi yall
i'm trying lose some weight like probably around 3 kg, but it's just not....working

the changes that i made
i stop eating after around 6/7
i only take lunch and dinner

i mean like sometimes my weight will go down by like 2 kg or around that but then it will go back to before,

Is my method not sustainable? The only exercise that i do is like walking daily around 4 km

Or is this something that i experience as i get older? I mean like my weight is steadily increasing since I was 18 rclxub.gifrclxub.gif I am 22 now
Thanks smile.gif

instead of not sustainable, you may have been unconsciously eating abit more during the lunch and dinner to compensate not eating your breakfast, and snacks etc. So yea unless you track the food you eat, 1 by 1, you'll most likely be going in circles unless you make a conscious effort to really reduce your food intake.

Just wanna update on my progress and thanks to those who replied me

Not sure why is the reason that my weight stuck for 2 weeks but recently, since last week, it started to drop again and im happy with it. My diet has not really changed,except that i started to increase my carb intake by a little, i started to eat rice. And my exercises are still the same as well, mostly on lifting weights and very little, to no cardio. Not sure why is the reason it stuck though.

Could be due to either 1) water retention (body is trying to retain the weight by storing more water). It will retain more water if your sodium intake is high. I noticed that on i shed weight faster if i reduce the sodium intake. But life will be miserable with bland food.

or 2) you are not on caloric deficit. If you are just basing caloric deficit based on TDEE calculator, just bear in mind that the calculation is just estimate. At the end of the day, you will need to readjust accordingly if despite being on deficit you are still not loosing weight.

Most likely adding the carbs made you abit more active and increased your non exercise thermogenesis which puts you back into deficit.

you're probably not eating and training right? Was on 16:8 and I maintained strength and musclemass just fine.
