119kg to below 96kg within 3 months (before September)

'simply'

Yes, simply... I guess will-power and discipline is not everyone's thing... I've done that several times, because i had to, during my time in the French Foreign Legion. Only the first ~40 hours of fasting are somewhat tough. On the third day, you feel mentally energized, and okay in general. Doing 72 hours fasting without having to do physical tasks is a walk in the park, compared to that.

The easiest way to cheat is to do some extreme sauna sessions before, I think they do it, or at least did it in many sports where there are weight limits, like boxing or other martial arts. Maybe it has been forbidden by now, I don't really follow these, but in any case it works. Ofc it's BS you just lose water...

I really dislike Sauna. Feel like i cant breath properly in high huminity with high temperature. No need to resort to that. At least UFC fighters are still doing that regularly.

I already started my first 72 hours fast after my last meal, which was 20 hours ago.
**** procrastination!

After more than 72 hours, your body starts splitting up muscle protein, which i of course want to avoid. But up to three days gives you all the benefits of increased HGH (growth hormon), reduced inflammatory processes, fat loss due to ketosis, improved immune system and mental clarity, plus other benefits that i forgot.

After breaking this fast with a tiny steak and an avocado on thursday morning, i will switch to OMAD (one meal a day, around 17:00 o'clock for me) with nearly zero carbs (no more fruits) for a week, then do another 72 hour fast to finally drop below 100kg on exactly 28th of this month.

I expect to lose ~3kg during this fast, then ~1kg during the OMAD Week, and the final 3kg during the second three day fast.

I must admit that i'm fairly hungry atm, and it's a bit tough to have the refrigerator stacked with food, while fasting. Though, there is no meat or anything else that i'd have to throw away, so there is no actual problem.

Am already planning what to eat as my daily meal during OMAD, hahaha.

I'd take that good boy for a walk in the park, for sure.
Is that your dog?

Actually, i will go for a walk in the forest right after waking up tomorrow. No chin-ups, but i need to get my 10k steps in, and buy a lemon to squeeze some electrolytes into my water and green tea.

I did break my fast after exactly 48 hours.
Cigarettes did simply taste like ****...

BUT... I stopped smoking about 24 hours ago 😀

Doing OMAD now, but adding apples as snack, whenever i feel like, until i dont have the urge to smoke anymore.

Not smoking again, and will stay strong.

After eating tomorrow's single big meal at noon, i will do another 36 hours fast until monday midnight.

Will be eating two big meals on tuesday and wednesday, until i travel to visit my uncle on wednesday evening, and go on a hiking tour with him from thursday till saturday. Making those 73 kilometer total should burn a lot of fat, if i manage to avoid eating carbs, aside of a few pieces of fruits.

I'm prepared really well, and feel good about everything, except the weather maybe being a bit too hot.

When i come back home with 102.5kg or less next sunday, i'll simply cut out all salt, and not drink any water on monday, until i made it to -100kg on the scale, to win my two bets already (200€ total).

Cant wait to get it done, and put on some muscles again. Will be eating two big meals per day with only fruits as carbs, as soon as i've been below 100kg.
Will also keep going for 10k steps on six days per week, when my diet ended.

Professor Bart Kay with: Cardio is bad for you (and high volume exercising is wrong for muscle growth)

Cardio is BAD for you (Bart Kay and REVIVAL Fitness)

Damn it. After i finished my big daily meal, i opened a box of mixed roasted and salted nuts. I usually dont buy them salted, or in a stupid mix with peanuts... Simply inhaled 275g of nuts after a big meal, hahaha.

Really need to fast 36 hours now, and go for a walk...

Edit: CICO (calories in calories out) is total bollocks. Watch the whole interview i linked, please.
Just as a hint: you dont gain a million pounds if you eat a gramm of uranium. It's as simple as that, if you compare it to fat.

CICO is more than adequate as a framework for explaining fat loss for non-idiotic examples and eating regimes.

Maybe roughly, if you eat SAD (standard american diet), combining carbs and fats in the same meals, which is the definition of idiotic eating regim, sir.
There are no essential carbs for humans, not a single one of them, and combing carbs and fats in the same meals is even worse than eating carbs in general (see: randle cycle).

The big takeaway is that you can eat a lot more "calories" (you dont eat calories, you eat food. No matter if it's species appropriate, or not), if you go on a carnivore diet. Even just doing keto, atkins or other very low carb diets allow you to eat a lot more than your wildly inacurately guessed caloric input to maintan weight would be, considering the "caloric value" of the suddenly species appropriate food you ingest, without gaining weight.

Once your body learns to burn fat as fuel - few days after you stop eating useless carbs - caloric values are no longer adequate as a framework.

You're gonna struggle to maintain/lose weight without an extremely restrictive diet (IE carnivore) if you don't understand how calories work and are unable to estimate them.

This is aside from the numerous side effects that keto diets cause.

But when you're obese, it doesn't really matter. Anything will work.

I dont consider eating a species appropriate diet restrictive at all, and will continue to eat very low carbs for the rest of my life.

It might be you, who doesnt understand the concept you are talking about. And caloric intake is nothing more than a concept.

Richard Feynman said "we barely know what energy is", which is still true today. Nevertheless, you try to convince me i need to understand how calories work and estimate them, despite the fact that's it's pointless, right?

I did and still do my extended research, not relying on outdated false information produced by the food industry, and i see my results regarding bodyweight and composition, which i shouldnt be able to get, if CICO would be anywhere close to accurate when consuming a species appropriate diet, while being active.

You maybe want to do a little bit of research on your own, while contemplating that 95% of the nutrition scientists in the USA are linked to/paid by the food industry that's selling you all the processed crap foods with seed oils, sugar, high fructose corn syrup, grains and thousands of additives that are harmfull.

The "numerous side effects" of a SAD are visible for the whole world. The USA is suffering more from morbid obesity and it's illnesses than from all drugs combined, and their food quality is the worst.
But hey, it's a huge business for the food industry, pharma industry and doctors, so let's just brainwash people into thinking low/no carbs is not sustainable or - lol - unhealthy...

Here is a superficial 6-minutes video exposing CICO from Professor Bart Kay:

Professor Bart Kay Exposes CICO (calories in calories out)

"Professor Bart Kay Exposes CICO"

For those with no time , who are questioning the CICO lie, skip to the 5:00 minute mark of this video and just watch the rest from there.

You might want to notice that Bart Kay isnt a shill for any products, like nearly all diet- and fitness-influencers today.

And by avoiding nearly all oxalates and lektins with the few vegetables, fruits and nuts that i still eat, i avoid negative side effects of suboptimal keto diets.

I wonder if anyone ever experienced any negative side effect of a well thought out carnivore or keto diet, at all.

My strong believe is that there are zero, and people are getting brainwashed by heavily biased buffoons and their studies, which are corroded by greed, wokeism and ****tardry...

Please name some negative side effects

This is like reading a CrossFit message board in 2007

Nah. Thermodynamics is pretty much settled. You may want to quibble about the thermic effect of food, hormonal effects, GI specific absorption rates (chew your corn) or any of the myriad other things specific food intake impacts, but CICO is pretty well settled due to it being a pretty basic equation.

You can take this as advice by some random guy on a message board, but you are now fat and are trying to lose weight. You seem to think you can willpower your way through this, but somehow were unable to willpower your way into not being fat. Maybe take a step back and consider the reasons why that was the case and why rambling about SAD makes no sense in the context of people eating "healthy".

NB: There is no evidence any of the things you listed adversely impact health in anything resembling normal healthy intakes. So I'd urge you to review the science, assuming you are capable, in lieu of watching fringe youtube vids. He also shills Stem Cell Support (https://www.instagram.com/reel/C4vtRDzpV...). So you may wanna learn a little more before you claim he isn't shilling products.

I never heard him talk about stem cells.

Your "science" is most likely heavily biased paid marketing (studies...) from old or woke ****tards.
There are no meaningfull studies regarding nutrition, because you cannot lock people up for years, controlling everything they do and eat, like rats. You believe their reports what they eat, ignoring factors like activity-level, drug-consumption, relationships etc etc, and call it scientific?
That's bollocks, plain nonsense.
And correlation doesnt imply causation.

Pretty well settled = not scientific or accurate, at all.

I conciously decided to not work out anymore 3 years ago, because my Powerhouse gym closed, and i couldnt stand to work out in the ridic chain gyms being left, full of idiotic teens and stupid bros, with one of the two not even having a squatrack.

Becoming fat was caused by excessive drinking during my short deck grind with 40% rakeback online, paired with few activity. You cant grind that ******ed simple game 6x8 hours a week being sober... It was worth it, financially.

Now i have quit sugar, grains and seed oils, which has put me into the state of mind that allowed me to quit alcohol, weed and cigarettes.

I already lost 16kg within two months now, being at 102.9kg yesterday.

I was one of the pioneers of shortstacking and I never needed to do any of those things.

But go off.

"It is the key to modern life. If you are immune to boredom, there is literally nothing you cannot accomplish."

David Foster Wallace, The Pale King

For actually educated people, there is no debate about the usefullness of carbs anymore. There simply are zero essential carbs for humans.

Of course some fruits with many vitamins, minerals and trace elements are worth it to be eaten in moderation, despite their carbs.

And if anyone wants to debate wether seed oils are healthy or not, please watch my favourite youtuber Bart Kay, or doctor Eric Berg, or doctor Shawn Baker on that issue.
If you prefer to hear it from typical influencers, check Paul Saladino or Thomas DeLauer.

Seed oils are terrible for humans, same as for animals, on which they initially tested them. The animals got very sick quickly, and died early.
After that - sitting on huge supplies - they decided to market and sell them to humans. I'm not kidding...
Check the strong upward trend of nearly all major health issues, once animal fats got exchanged with/for seed oils. It's insane.

They = Same people that own tobacco industries

Just so we're clear.... The Youtuber, Bart Kay, who you seem to know virtually nothing about?

https://www.instagram.com/bart_kay_nutri...

This guy? Right?

Who doesn't shill supplements?

You repeat yourself. (I dont use Instagram, Facebook, tiktok and whatever else people are into these days)

I already told you that i never heard him talk about stem cells, and i've watched probably about a dozen long videos from him on youtube, and some short ones.

Try doctor Eric Berg for nutrition, if you dont like Bart Kay.
I for one love the way Bart Kay reacts to and talks about all the uneducated morons.

Here is a long one with Bart Kay shreddering Mike Israetel regarding CICO:

Mike Israetel - "CICO Tho".

Will you acknowledge he is a massive supplement shill?
