So I realise that some people on here might be a bit chubby like me, or in my case just plain fat after a Christmas binge, and may want to lose weight, but not really knowledgeable in the food department.

Well here is my list. I'm pretty much use to binge eating, followed by fast weight loss stripping. So I built this list as my go-to everytime I need to go on a stripping session.

P.S I've tried every fad diet you have ever heard of over the last 7 years, I promise you that the below is the easiest. (It's not a fad diet, it's just a healthy diet that fills you up without pounding on the calories)


What to eat daily/in large amounts:
Low-starch vegetables (greens, mushrooms, cucumber, zucchini, etc.)
Lean meats (poultry, seafood)
Low-carb/high fiber plant-based proteins (tofu, tempeh, chia seeds)
Low-sugar fruits (berries)
Light dairy (yogurt, greek yogurt)


What to eat in moderate amounts (i.e. mind the portions!):
Starchy vegetables (potatoes, corn, etc.)
Less lean meats (beef, pork)
Certain plant-based proteins (nuts, seeds)
Moderate-sugar fruits (peaches, apricots, apples, pears, oranges, etc.)
Moderate dairy (skim milk, hard cheeses, light cheeses like feta, goat cheese, ricotta, mozzarella, etc.,)
Healthy oils (olive oil, sesame oil, avocado oil—again, mind the portions!)

What to eat occasionally/rarely (or on special occasions):
High sugar fruits (tropical fruits like pineapple, mangos, bananas, with some exceptions, like papaya and guava)
Dried fruit (because this is basically candy lol)
Heavy dairy (heavy cream, butter, cheeses made from whole fat milk)
Less healthy oils (hydrogenated oils, palm oil... which is found in many chocolate bars!)
And, of course, junk food!




How to use this list for shopping?

Create a spreadsheet, with 3 columns: Group A, Group B, Group C.

Now google the first item on the list "Low starch vegetables list" and choose which foods you like from this list, add them to your shopping, and stick them in group B

Repeat this for each food type.

Group A: Healthiest / Eat as much as you can
Group B: Moderate amounts, healthy but don't binge or you will gain weight.
Group C: Avoid adding anything to this list if possible, but if something is irresistible then go for it.

Your goal is to each as much as Group A as possible, whilst including a bit of group B into your diet.

It will be pretty easy to diet using this method. And remember guys, any type of sugar whether it's glucose, fructose, sucralose etc has shown a massively strong correlation with obesity. Harvard have a good article on this.

So always minimise sugar intake and count your calories!
 
It's actually not harder than this image: eat less than your basal metabolic rate minus the calories you burn off throughout daily activities.
You can easily eat pizza's and burgers daily and lose weight, as long as your body burns more calories than you're consuming. (I do the same thing for years)

But wonderful to see that it's workout out for you :)
I really don't like restricting diets. IIFYM is where it's at.

Agreed, but a caloric deficit can be harder or easier depending on the diet, the diets tend to aim towards making a caloric deficit easier, such as intermittent fasting.

I've found that my tables above helps me achieve it the easiest. :)

For sure! For most people your way is the most convenient one. If you want to go through the hassle of learning tracking your calories, it's easier to enjoy even fast food while working towards your goal!

Keep it up :)
 
With Caloric Deficits - always remember to hit your macros.
 
My gf always uses keto whenever she wants to lose weight and it works damn well.
She can easily lose 3-4kg in just a month.
 
15 KGS in 2 years :weep::weep::weep::weep::weep::weep::weep::weep::weep::weep: from 52kg to 67kg
 
I let my friends' "friends" use my home gym
Lost weights like never before...

Seriously, great content and effort kudos and best of luck to all lifters and gym enthusiasts :)

Sure thing, it's not much but its honest work !

It might look shitty for experienced lifters but it allowed me to lose all excessive body fat and go from 69kg to 82 in a year (Yeah I was weak af)
I'm 2m tall (6'6 I believe)

Began crafting my own weights as a way to invest time and effort in them and feel proud to use them.

Melted and casted lead for the 15kg weights (I use full gloves so no intoxication in sight)
For the lighter ones, I embedded lead sheets in mortar using 5L bottles as molds
Barbells are steel rods cut to proper length and Olympic bar is a steel rod filled with lead.


Real weights on their way btw :)

You guys like it ?

That's awesome dude. I'd kill to have a lat pulldown at home, it's my favorite exercise and I miss it the most after 7 weeks of lockdown now.
Great weather too! :cool:
 
Hi, guys, if I have a good health plan which I want to share with others for some bucks. Where I can make this? Platforms, sites or apps

Thanks man !
It's a real pleasure to work on myself, using the weigths I crafted, with a great sunny-seaside scenery.
I just feel like putting effort in this type of stuff is what gets me happier on the long run !

On top of tthat, I get to introduce my vegetable friends to sportand good nutrition
We often do 2week long bootcamps where they stay at home, and we all focus on eating well and being happy :)

I have been a heavy pot smoker for 7 years and stopped a year ago, I couldn't advice anything best than sport to cope with addiction.
ANYONE seeking support to quit drugs, my PMs are wide open !

@Blackhat Lifter, how long have you been lifting ?
You're shredded asf bro :)
 
I thought this was common sense & that everybody knew this. Of course, it's not just about eating healthy. Staying active helps a lot. But, I don't think anyone's actual goal should be losing weight but being healthier. :)
 
BTW, @Blackhat Lifter this setup cost me 300€

- 200€ for the lat pulldown (it has bottom pull as well[dunno how this is called tbh])
- 100€ for the bench with supports

I am currently waiting to receive 50mm weights and 50mm barbells
- 250€ for 70kg of weigths
- 50€ (not sure anymore) for the barbells


If thats is interesting for any european blackhatter, I'll be happy to share the juicy links
 
@Chaffrey

That's great to hear man, and the picture on my profile picture is David Laid, not me :)
I've been lifting for 4-5 years, and went from 56kg to 98kg at 198cm height (click https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/journey-my-journey-to-6-pack-abs-in-2021-and-general-fitness.1293250/post-13960319 for image)

Sadly I have no space at home for more, but in quarantine I am struggling with 12kg dumbells and bands lol.... bit different than barbell lifts I'm used to in the gym!
 
I'm doing some workouts with dumbbells and bodyweight to lose some weight...
185cm and 102KG after the fucking CoRONA year :)
So now 99 KG just about 9 to go to reach my goal.
