Look at the nutrition label? Myfitnesspal? I mean there are tons of ways but did you go to the calculator and input your height/weight and stuff like that? That's how you know how many calories to eat.

LOL son, don't half ass the plan and then expect results.

papi is pretty swole, but he doesnt actually cook :skip: his wife does

so if im a betting man, shes just fixing his plates and hes eating it :bryan:

she cooks very healthy though. Organic foods, whole grains, more water, olive oil/vegetable oil, Light butter and light caloried juices. I gotta do my part I guess :to:

i too did the same thing throughout HS and made weight many a time

but then you get older and you realize that if you aint working out like an athlete then you best not be eating like one :whew:

to give you an idea, i ate meals similar to the ones you posted(filled up my plate half the plate with meat the rest w.e) so im familiar with it...BUT i also worked out 6 hours a day(3 hours conditioning, 3 hours live wrestling) and ran 3 miles every morning :skip:

:flabbynsick:

healthy =/= consistent deficit

while ur heart may benefit, ur love handles couldnt tell the difference :ld:

also...even still you could still manage to do much better even without counting if you made subtle changes

IE limit ur carbs to half a fist size servings and eat the balance in protein(aka alot of meat, eggs, milk etc)

while you still wouldnt know if ur in deficit, itll drastically reduce your overall cals...grains..light fat butter...organic etc have no bearing on fat loss.

@MMSex what are you thought on keto?

It's a different method than what I go by(weekly deficit vs daily deficit)

:manny: IMO its irrelevant until you get closer to 12% body fat

how do you know when to cut or bulk

i'm 182 lbs 6'1 and pretty happy with how i look, im basically skinny everywhere except the stomach/hip area and im trying to get rid of that extra fat. so just try to keep cutting?

im hitting around 150-180 g of protein a day is that enough?

do you have decent musculature?

if so keep cutting, but if you are built like a bird...bulk :ehh:

I'm the same weight structure as @DANJA and I want to get down to the low 170's by May (my birthday) while adding some muscle mass.

@MMSex

I drink beer on the weekends during football season but since that's over with this week, i'll be kinda phasing that out. I need a starter workout plan since i'm joining Planet Fitness Monday. Help bruhs :sadbron:

@MMSex

I need help breh. :wow:

I been lifting for 4 years, kinda off and on, never really got into counting calories but trying to eat healthy food. That's why the last year I started to get some gut.

Cought a mad flue and been ill for the past month. :wow: Been eating some ugly shyt, like a box of raffaellos per day and pizzas. :wow:

So basically I am now skinny fat. I am 6"3 and 199lbs. That's damn low for my height but I need to cut, shyt is getting ugly.

How do I approach it? I read your guide and used the calculator and it showed 2k calories. :beli: So I am supposed to exclude 500k and live on 1500 calories per day? :beli: That's seem like to fukking low, I am gonna be :deadrose: all day on that.

I got 2844 now :leon:.

Assuming that my workouts can be pretty heavy should I put 1 hour into Heavy instead of Moderate?

I am just trying not to loose that gains I already have. :snoop:

remember i wrote this guide in march of last year specifically for obese people at the time.

while it still applies to everyone else, the 500-800 range doesnt.

300-500 works(but 1lb a week may end up being 0.5-1.0 instead), but no you WILL assume sedentary if you want to be successful with this. noone here, NONE do anything that falls within "heavy" on a regular basis

this number is an average for the week. the truth is you burn varying amounts depending on activity. i set the numbers to best estimate the casual lifter on a weekly basis

:salute:

Last question - is 1g of protein per 1lbs sufficient enough for me?

ideally at your current height/weight

you want a minimum of 170g protein per day for best results

shooting for 200 is safe, and will make hitting cals easier too, but the more protein the more expensive the meals :whew:

avoid meals that dont have protein tho(and i mean as in the whole meal)

shyt like oatmeal for breakfast doesnt cut it, unless you throw some boiled eggs on the side etc :wot:
