[The Frozen One]

congrats man, been trying to lose some kilos too...any tips

i got a lot of tips and advice. Basically you HAVE to workout (not just cardio) AND you need to get your diet straight. i went 3-4 months straight no soda/pop/fast food/junk food etc...that's where i lost the most, just cutting the garbage.

I also ate smaller portions and curbed my hunger by drinking a lot of water. Boiled eggs and peanut butter sandwiches were what i ate for breakfast .. you got lots of protein and healthy fat and it kills your hunger. I also eat ALOT of chicken. I try to make my own food now. I eat a lot of veggies. I'm more of a veggies guy than fruit. I eat bananas like a monkey though. Also make your own smoothies and they taste great. my favorite is making banana strawberry and blueberry smoothie

I've been doing the opposite, gained 5 pounds in the past month. Being too thin is not a good look.

how did you gain

 

[KinksandCoils]

130 seems a bit small for your height and for being a man but I guess if you are feeling better than that's what matters.

Throw some tips.

You're 5'7 and 130, you're too damn skinny man, go eat some food. A male that's 5'7 should weigh at least 150lbs.

Good that you're not fat though I guess.

 

[The Infamous]

how did you gain

3-4 full meals a day and drinking 1-2 meal replacement shakes a day. I think it was you who recommend the meal replacement drinks in that skinny people on the coli thread

[Loose]

I thought this was about you coming down from 200+.

Down to 130?
You are frail.

Word 130 nikka should be at least 160-170

nikka my buddy spent $3000 on personal trainer and i made a bet with him that i'll lose more than him following my own advice and routines than him following some trainer with fixed plans and routines.

needless to say, he ain't paying up but anyways, congrats on your weight loss. The progress feels much better

best way i've learned is to constantly change your routine. Don't stick to same routine for more than 10 weeks. Some people will tell you different, but from my experience changing routine helped me. I also don't count calories or anything like that. Just make sure you know what you are eating.

As far as programs go. I started with Stronglifts 5x5 .. this program was mentioned by coli's very own @MMSex ... did it for 8 weeks, then went on to bodybuilding.com and looked at their beginners program. Since it was the first time i was lifting weights ever in my life, i was looking for a routine with easy exercises that any novice can do. I found Lee Labrada 12 week routine. I followed it for 10 weeks then switched to a more intense program by Kris Geithen or something like that. This program was tough but helped me gained a lot of strengths. Now i switched back to stronglifts 5x5.

breh it's the fat in my stomach

years of beers and nasty junk food and poor lifestyle choices .. i don't like anorexic or anything like that. I don't look like 50 cent with his weight loss. I look healthy as fukk and getting so many compliments and comments from people about how much better i look, how much happier i am etc etc. When i look in the mirror, i still see the same fat guy.

 

[Red Omega]

da fukk - 130 5'7, gotta be a troll, you literally must look like a skeleton that's a girls weight breh.

You dropped 50 pounds but couldn't even drop a flaw
