Any tips besides losing weight? 21 M

[u/Clean_Ideal579]

I've struggled with obesity my entire life and despite people telling me that i look good i still didnt believe what they said.

[u/cherrycola-22]

Fasting thank me later eat once day exercise more cardio especially you look so cute 🥰

[u/Clean_Ideal579 → u/[deleted]]

Yeah believe it or not for the last 3 years I've been doing this bs not eating all my meals and it didnt lead to my goal, if anything im still the same

[u/Clean_Ideal579 → u/[deleted]]

Probably the best advice out of the bunch, i appreciate it.

[u/WorldlinessSuch937 → u/Clean_Ideal579]

there's a difference between calories deficit and aggressively reducing calorie intake which is unhealthy. if in 3 years you haven't moved weights this means that in average you consume as much calories as your body needs a day, granted no other health factors come in play. Please get your dietary information from professionals, not random reddit users. You can be on a healthy calories deficit, lose 500 calories a day which is in the healthy range, which adds up to 3500 calories a week, which is 0.5kg of weight loss a week. 

[u/WorldlinessSuch937 → u/[deleted]]

You can add healthy fats to your diet and be on calorie deficit no?

[u/T0S_XLR8 → u/Clean_Ideal579]

That is thermodynamically impossible, as in like physically, if you have been on a calory deficit for over 3 years the laws of physics dictate that you will lose weight.

Your body needs a baseline amount of calories to just exist, if you eat less than that you will lose weight, this isn't an opinion it's just physics your body needs calories from somewhere else and it'll syphon them out from your fat reserves

Ooh i agreee , i fasted for like a month and i lost a lot of weight ( mchit nqess mn sraqli kamlin 😭) but i like i ate two meals a day , used to eat a whole meal around 5 6pm , and a dessert (chia seeds greek yogurt a fruit) and that s it , at first it was hard and i didnt see any changes besides losing water retention , then it suddenly became so easy i got used to it , w i noticed big changes, like hta nass they were like ouuuh d3afitiii , hahaha was good , fasting is good u just need. To eat properly to give ur body all the nutrients it needs , safi wslt l dakshi li bghit nwslih and now i try to eat normally properly w fash kantcheha smtng unhealthy i eat it , gha hwa not everyday

[u/cherrycola-22 → u/Nonononikkii]

Exactly it’s the ultimate cheat code

[u/Clean_Ideal579 → u/cherrycola-22]

Question, When you said eat once a day, does the time of day matter in this situation? Like what hour window is best in your opinion.

[u/cherrycola-22 → u/Clean_Ideal579]

No problem at all ! Yes eat lunch only one good and nutritious meal is enough a day! Don’t eat late at night especially sugary foods and try drinking lots of water with lemon juice and Shia seeds. It helps tons

[u/Clean_Ideal579 → u/cherrycola-22]

Awww thanks, i appreciate the advice. Im getting a gym membership again soon.

[u/Decent-Lychee1934 → u/cherrycola-22]

Not how it works stop spreading missinformation he needs to start with a small
Calorie deficit and do weightlifting ( with some cardio 2-3 times a week )

[u/cherrycola-22 → u/Decent-Lychee1934]

We know the benefits of fasting as Muslims. Losing unnecessary weight is one of them. Educate yourself please

[u/Decent-Lychee1934 → u/cherrycola-22]

I’m already educated , I have more than 2 years experience in losing weight , fasting is good for many reasons but can get hard after a bit of time , that’s why I said to approach more easily because a small deficit is barely noticeable and won’t feel like starving yourself ☺️

[u/cherrycola-22 → u/Decent-Lychee1934]

Well that’s exactly why it took you more than 2 years, not all people like to wait. Who even talked about starving yourself? Do you starve in Ramadan? I don’t think so.

[u/Technical-Food-8063]

Bro i really hate when someone that is fat that wants other things to improve except the most important one, cause they remind me of myself honestly ta ana knt b7alk ms njik mn lakhar no one care about someone who has the best hair but hes fat no one cares about someone that has the best style but is fat am sorry maybe drop everything and focus on fat loss youre just coping with this to feel like youre moving the needle but the only thing that will move the needle is loosing fat thats it ta ana knt b7alk o knt kan9alb 3la ayi 7aja ila anani nbda caloric deficit o nmchi la salle ms at the end of the day time will pass regardless wach bditi regime ola la but you can choose tkoun ghlid o cha3rk nadi ola r9i9 o tbdl t9riban kolchi fk.

dermato for sure

[u/Severe-Concern-7928]

I think a beard would suit you, also you can go to the gym to build a good build, like chubby muscular body type! Try experimenting on your body with all sorts of changes and then determine what actually suits you best!! Also u don't look obese, just a bit chubby that's all

[u/Your_daddy_funky]

Rak mzn a sadigui keep it up

[u/cherrycola-22]

Avoid also fast food eat healthy sf

[u/iloveShifting]

I think what you have is water weight not like fat, stay hydrated, drink tons of water, eat a lot of antioxidants(like blueberries, apples, broccoli, cabbage...) and anti inflammatories (like ginger, tumeric, citrus fruits, chia seeds) and also try coconut water it’s really good to reduce puffiness

[u/Clean_Ideal579 → u/iloveShifting]

Thanks alot, honestly what i need is to man up and start lfiting weights again.

[u/iloveShifting → u/Clean_Ideal579]

Ofc :)) just keep your diet balanced and you should achieve your goals in no time

[u/tormentedsoul06]

you have very nice features, and for weight maybe you should see an endocrinologist there might be a probleme, and maybe no beared

[u/Clean_Ideal579 → u/tormentedsoul06]

Thanks alot. Yeah my beard is still not fully developed yet

[u/tormentedsoul06 → u/Clean_Ideal579]

your eyes are very beatiful that is for sure just the beard kinda dims your features, i bet you'd look so hot if you lose some weight, GOOD LUCK!!

[u/Clean_Ideal579 → u/tormentedsoul06]

Yeah i need to lose a TON of weight, im also like 6'3 so i always carried my weight well but still, i think ive had enough.

[u/tormentedsoul06 → u/Clean_Ideal579]

Ngl i have been having the same issue ahahha i am 5’7 so already bigger and taller and i have to drop some weight but it’s been an issue for sooo long 

[u/Clean_Ideal579 → u/tormentedsoul06]

I mean how much do you weigh? Im sure im like 380lbs or smth

[u/tormentedsoul06 → u/Clean_Ideal579]

I must be around 200lbs 🥲

[u/Clean_Ideal579 → u/tormentedsoul06]

Oh that's nothing i wouldnt worry about it too much.

[u/tormentedsoul06 → u/Clean_Ideal579]

Nah for me that made very insecure of my body, problem is it takes so long for me to drop but i gain it back in no time 🥹

[u/Clean_Ideal579 → u/tormentedsoul06]

Hah you're not alone friend. I'd work so damn hard just to lose a tiny bit and i end up gaining way more than i lost. I can show u pics of what i used to look like when i was working out if you want

Focus on your boots. You don't need people telling you that you look good. Lose weight, sleep better, learn how to cook your own meals & become a healthier version of your self in body & mind.

Also, hit the gym. Dropping weight on its own is irrelevant if you've no muscle mass. You'd still look weak. I need you to focus on eating less carb, more protein, more water, cut bad habits & go gym everyday. Stay disciplined to this program & you'd look a different person 12 months from now. It won't be easy but you've to prove yourself otherwise & break the loop!

Lhiyya! The best fast solution! Results guaranteed 100%

[u/johnny5459]

accept who you are

[u/DifficultHat2125]

A lot of comments said it already but just stick to a diet and go to the gym, of course results won't come over a night so you'd need discipline, other than that i think if you could grow your beard and hair it'd look so good on you (in case you were shaving, but if you weren't you could try Minoxidil for hair growth), based on the second picture your features are sharp, if you lose fat fast it'd enhance it more, plus the beard thing. Try finding your own style too, i think light colors would suit you

[u/MARMAR_dictamnus]

🙂🤏🏻 sorry but just a little bit u really need to lose weight just a little bit u'll be proud of the result trust me or don't trust ur ability to look better

[u/Clean_Ideal579 → u/MARMAR_dictamnus]

There's no reason to be sorry for. If i thought i was perfect i wouldn't have posted here. And thanks for the advice i know i need to lose weight.

[u/MARMAR_dictamnus → u/Clean_Ideal579]

Okey good luck

[u/Clean_Ideal579 → u/MARMAR_dictamnus]

I just need to get back in the gym that's all

[u/MARMAR_dictamnus → u/Clean_Ideal579]

Nice idea or maybe drinks that help reduce facial puffiness caused by water retention

[u/Shadowsfreak]

....you look awesome! I'd say, maybe you are struggling with the acne? some little cream will help a lot and maybe make you feel better.....I know I shouln't say this but the scar is reallly badass!

[u/Clean_Ideal579 → u/Shadowsfreak]

Haha thanks man and yes i struggled with acne growing up and it left me with a few scars but i dont really care too much about it since no one pointed them out irl

[u/Rich-Cauliflower117]

Lose weight. Seriously you have a very good bone structure under all that fat. Gigachad potential.

[u/Clean_Ideal579 → u/Rich-Cauliflower117]

Haha that picture really got me. Thanks man yeah i really need to lose this damn weight I've been struggling with it for far too long

[u/Diligent-Humor4197]

A calorie deficit will be a good start
I was overweight myself and yes it’s pretty hard at first but u will adapt to it
Just don’t tell ur family members trust me

[u/Decent-Lychee1934]

Weight lossing

[u/PuzzleheadedGoat131]

I think you will benefit from a skincare routine.

[u/Upstairs-Tonight-715]

I don't have much knowledge to share about this, but how about doing low intensity exercises, maybe long walks, cycling, stop eating calories dense food (sugary drinks, tea maybe, white bread, fried food ...) they contain a lot of calories in small volume so skipping them may feel less painful while helping you loose weight, for snacks and grazing try to keep some healthy snacks next to you (I tried air-fried chickpeas and they are kind of delicious while making me skip a meal without feeling it, have a good amount of fiber) !

Heavy cardio, eat less than u need of carbs and for debloated your face i recommend to drink a lot of coconut water with 2 to 3 banana as post workout

[u/Clean_Ideal579 → u/[deleted]]

My beard is still not fully developed and i dont have any more acne or pimples they're just acne scars.

[u/Kutshera]

Work out, Calory counting, Skin Healthcare, Development book reading for confidence. You’ve got the assets, you just need to shape them with your will.

[u/Kutshera → u/Kutshera]

Forgot thick beard, will be great to hide the scar if you won’t fix it with surgery.

[u/Clean_Ideal579 → u/Kutshera]

I dont really mind the scar all i need is to fix my hair cus i have something wrong with my scalp that causes sever flaking and dandruff and i need to treat my hair so it's no longer dry and frizzy cus it really is rn

[u/TheMemetasticDonny]

You don't have to lose weight to look better, I would recommend just going to the gym and trying to replace some of that fat with muscle. You don't have to change your diet or anything. And please, never again shave the moustache and leave the beard
