Help: Need A Easy Simple Meal Plan To Lose Weight

[MMS]

Props on this, I get lost with all these numbers. I have been told this and that by doctors and watching everything I eat etc.

I'm a picky eater and just reduced what I normally eat, seen some results.


I'm trying to beat diabetes, just got the death sentence last week.

everything i prescribe is for people with no conditions :wot: i cant with good faith tell you what to eat provided ur diabetic. but within the limits your doctor prescribes you(sugar content etc) counting calories still works

the crucial thing to realize about this. is i did this within about 5 minutes. once you know the numbers

you never have to calculate them again :hbk:

the key here is to realize losing fat has little to do with "clean" food

the important things are the "macros" calories...protein...carbs...fat

considering how big you currently are. carbs and fat numbers wont change your numbers

but as i said in the guide..theres a crucial thing i didnt list and thats weight training

your body WILL burn both fat and muscle if you dont lift. the BETTER you lift (and when i say better i mean lifting with purpose. as in lifting to get stronger) the closer you will get to 90+% fat losses for each lb lost

if you do not lift...youll just end up being a skinny flabby mess the choice is yours. my mistake of not lifting early on has resulted in loose skin that i still have bouts with

if i could do it again. id lose exactly 1lb if possible with as high of protein as possible per serving to ensure muscle preservation.

the number on your scale isnt what matters...its what you see in the mirror once ur done

lets look at the numbers again :vince:

so the original plan i gave you, would have been equivalent to roughly 1700 calories at best

realistically, you would have quit that within 2 weeks.

thats why knowing what things are can really put things in perspective. see unlike you, my maintenance is around 2300-2500 calories. for me cutting means a whole different thing than you

and just like me, as you lose weight your maintenance will slowly decrease over time. But once ur at my point trying to eat all that food becomes a job, i can barely put down some of this stuff anymore

What if you can't lift for a few months due to health reasons. I'm on Coudamin until June so I can't do any weight lifting, just been doing cardio and calorie deficits/clean eating. What would you suggest? Looking to lower body fat%

Can you do body weight exercises?

 

[ZRO]

Can you do body weight exercises?

I think I can. What would you suggest?

I think I can. What would you suggest?

Basic stuff: push-ups, squats, lunges

I don't know what you have the capacity to do but that would at least help you gain some form of strength.

Ok thanks, I'm planning to start doing that stuff next week.

i cant hold your hand, eventually if you want to be fit youll do what i just did(which took 5 minutes) for all the food you generally like

using the 20/1 ratio you really figure whats good and whats bad.

eitherway if you want it bad enough youll learn and do whats necessary

Cals should still be countable, best to over estimate just a bit since you won't be precise.
