if I binge on pizza and nachos for a week or 2 I lose weight

make sure youre recording everythiing and properly

if youre gaining weight, youre not in a deficit

so either your daily limit is too high, or youre not recording everything

Or you could just do keto and it just falls off...lol. Okay, I'm done

laws of thermodynamics cant be broken

energy has to come from somewhere

I have a weird metabolism though my body is often in starvation mode

I'm "that guy," need to tone it down. I'm like a vegan without all of the moral grand-standing

you cannot create energy

lol @Beebs Magoo

if you are truely in a deficit then weight will drop

if only it was easy as when I was 19

Eat multiple small meals a day.

Exercise.

Drink a gallon of water a day.

Sleep well.

It's quite simple.

none of that matters if hes not in a deficit

sleep well....hmmmm

Yikes, give your digestive system a break with the small meals

but yes, all those help in general

A deficit is important but you do so even while eating garbage.

Have you tried intermittent fasting or fasting in general? That shit is legit

@[DGI]tech but hes saying he gains weight in a deficit

Not a fan of fasting unless it's due to morning cardio.

I think for me it'll come down to find a routine and trying to keep it, never been my strong suit

It's within a window, gives your body a break

yup you need to be consistent @Lord Zedd

And you don't have to eat less during IF

I've been experimenting with 24, 48 hour fasting

but it's never just one aspect of life, got to work on the sleep stuff or the diet stuff is worthless

and if you don't sleep properly your brain turns to mush

it has to do with you being only able to stuff so much food in you at one time

thats why intermittent fasting works.

Legalize, it helps stabilize your blood pressure, insulin levels

Because you're not constantly putting more sugar in your system and having to regulate it internally afterward

diet stuff isnt worthless without sleep @Lord Zedd

yes work on all, but dont let it stop you maintaining a good diet

Sleep is so important...everything gets fucked without proper sleep

It's a three or four tier system.
