Discipline for losing weight.

[MJ DeMarco]

@mav55339 -- why do you continually post new threads and new posts when you've demonstrated a propensity to IGNORE every single piece of advice given to you?

You're post to approval ratio is about 10 to 1 ... for every 10 posts sucked into moderation, 9 of those posts are deleted.

The reason being: You like to talk, but you don't like to listen.

And I see nothing has changed, except more posts that I continually need to delete.

Asking the same question over and over while ignoring every single piece of advice given isn't going to help you, and I'm tired of having to moderate it.

(For reference: this user once again tried to post a new thread on losing weight when he already did so weeks ago, and clearly ignored everything.)

Sorry I won't post anymore

Sorry I won't post anymore

Post when you've actually done something with the advice that has been repeatedly been given to you.

ACT.

You continually ASK, but continually fail to ACT.

Your idea of ACTING is to ask the same question, over, and over, and over. This accomplishes nothing.

Do something.

And then give yourself a pat on the back, regardless of the results.

Calories are a stupid and dysfunctional model for estimating energy intake.

The goal is to fix your metabolism so that your natural satiety signaling works properly. You do that by removing carbs and eating less frequently (1-2 meals a day max). You will gradually become less and less hungry, and your body will naturally adjust to the new standard.

And when it comes to discipline, the only long term solution is to throw away all the garbage food in your house. Stop making choices, stop giving yourself the opportunity to cheat.

Fixing your environment and habits are what will enable you to get lean and stay lean for the rest of your life.

Totally disagree with the first two paragraphs, totally agree with the rest said.

Last few months I made a habit of weighing my food on a scale daily in order to track calories, also track exercise on an app.

This way I calculate total calorie intake vs usage. I've maintained a 500 calories deficit.

Lo and behold my body fat % has consistently lowered. In just two months went from 18% to like 12-13%

My stomage got flatter. Even my face changed, cheeks thinner, my jaw more visible (wasn't expecting this).

There is more details and nuances to how to make this work, and the place for healthy carbs, but leaving my caloric blindness has work out great for me so far.

You could have a mental block somewhere which is preventing you from attaining your goal.
