I'd say baby steps
Eh I guess
Running is ok but I feel like it's overrated, lifting is much better for losing weight long term
I was 260lbs at my heaviest and how I'm 200 and nearing the AirForce fitness standards. I just give advice based on my experience. I started by not drinking sugary drinks, then doing MyFitnessPal, then I started running, then I started going to the gym and trying to eat more healthy
I'm just a 15 year old who was really fucking skinny a year ago, I don't got any huge story lol
Started with 100 pushups a day (not in a row) and eventually graduated from calisthenics and threw together a home gym
Nice
Not that calisthenics are bad or anything but weights are cooler
I think the advanced calisthenics stuff is cooler and way more of a flex but I just lift weights rn
Yeah like muscle ups
I wanna try muscle ups but the pull up bar I have is uh
The pull up bar is the blue thingie, if I did a muscle up on that it'd fall over and I'd die lol
That's pretty nice
Thanks
My mom got the treadmill from a friend for free, the bench press I got from my uncle for free, and the dumbbells my dad got me for my birthday
Looking to add a punching bag with my own cash
I pretty much only have dumbells and I got those for free
You can do a lot with dumbbells

I think my main issue is snacking outside my main meals
Possibly but if you counted calories all of that would be taken into the count
No
Counting calories is annoying. I seldom have an idea what my mum will make
No way I can work out calories for a meal she makes herself when she does everything by eye
That's the easiest thing you can do so if you can't do that then have fun dying at 40 lmfao
You can make your own stuff usually
It's not hard to make eggs for breakfast
And then dinner you can guestimate
The way I do it
I only eat twice a day
Well, more like one real mean a day but
I usually have a Soylent or something in the morning which is easy af to track
And then I have dinner which I usually have to guestimate but I can usually track enough of it to get a good estimation. I always estimate conservatively too
For example if we're having something where the main dish is rice
It's pretty easy to track the calories in rice
Pasta is the same idea
