I've seen it first had. People trying to lose weight for literal YEARS and trying numerous diets but nothing seems to work.
I was able to shred most of my fat in literally two months, doing a caloric deficit + fasting
Why do Normies struggle so much to lose Weight?
1. They’re lying about being in a deficit
2. They eat like shit and lie about it
3. They lie about the amount of exercise they do
They lie to convince themselves that it’s “muh genetics” and not their lack of will power and discipline
They also underestimate the amount of sugar and saturated fats in most of the food they are used to.
>I can’t read a nutrition label on a diet
You fell for their lies anon, YOU FELL FOR THEIR LIES
they dont think they have to, they just eyeball everything and assume things are fine. you see it with middle aged women all the time, thats why things like myfitnesspal and weightwatchers even exist in the first place. if everyone knew what was good for them and what wasnt, and the amount of calories most stuff has in it, or at least the ability to estimate they wouldnt need an app to track it or a diet plan of only frozen meals with a points system. even then though it never works for them because they loose like 10 lbs, brag about it then immediately carry on the way they were before. its the circle of life.
This is more of a fastfood redpill but still applies. People think the chicken is cheap just because of some other reason
While what you say may be a fact.
It is also a fact that people generally can lose weight with the assistance of drugs that suppress your appetite. Which by itself proves that it isn’t as simple as your points would indicate.
Peoples bodies and hormonal system are broken and no longer have normal human levels of appetite signaling or fullness signaling. That is THE driver of obesity. And until we have a way to control that with little to no risk to human health, obesity will only get worse.

Same reason they max out credit cards on shit they don't need, buy multiple streaming services, and retreat to social media at every opportunity
And can you articulate that reason?
Weak willpower and avoidance of anything mildly uncomfortable in favor of cheap dopamine hits.
Very succinct and to the point. Nicely put

job and family life.
Work a 12 hour shift, pack a healthy lunch and some snacks, suddenly you have to work 4 hours overtime and the only place to get something to eat is Mcdonalds or the vending machine.
Simply dont have time/energy to make healthy meals due to waging slaving etc.
Its easy for autistic lay about neets to spend all this time measuring out portions and cooking lentils but it only takes a few months of wagie exhaustion and going to the fast food drive thru on your way to work to ruin years of worth of diet and exercise
>the only place to get something to eat is Mcdonalds or the vending machine
So just don't eat. Skip lunch.
>inb4 I need food to be able to do my job
If you're doing sedentary office work, you really don't. Sure, hunger is distracting, but you get used to it. Our hunter-gatherer ancestors had weeks where they went with only 1500 calories and still went out to hunt the next day, so you can definitely skip a meal once in a while and still organize a spreadsheet.

>larps about le epic willpower
>bullshit about muh ancestral trad life
next you'll be posting greek statues asking 'how to achieve"
What are you talking about, retard
those people you complain about are right, you are wrong about life and have made a caricature about them. you will never be happy and it's your fault.
I'm quite happy and not even fat.
>skipping a meal sometimes is "le epic willpower"
>pointing out that skipping a meal occasionally won't do any harm to your body is "muh ancestral trad life"
What are you crying about?
>our ancestors were weak and pathetic twinks
No shit. If you're a lard golem, eating like a twink for a few weeks is a great way to lose weight. That's what a cut is.
>you'll be posting greek statues asking 'how to achieve"
And it'll be based every time. Those posts always put a smile on my face.
>Our hunter-gatherer ancestors
stopped reading there
fucking dyels
our ancestors were weak and pathetic twinks
Stop using fag language ffs
Those are some flimsy excuses, but not surprising since fatties will do anything to justify gulping down some sugary water or gorging down on whatever is in the vending machine.
My overall favorite is still blaming everything on a "thyroid problem"
You asked why normies get fat and I gave you some reasons.
I didnt say they were good excuses. Just reasons they get fat because of the daily grind.
Of course we all know SwoleShack incels are all LE EPIC STOIC who can work all day through hardship and hunger then go to the gym for 2 hours and come home to le based virgin tradwife who made your dinner of free range chicken breast and organic steamed broccoli.
But not everyone can be as awesome as an anime-watching SwoleShack incel, so they just end up getting tired and fat after wage slaving all day.
I didn't start the thread, but whatever.
>But not everyone can be as awesome as an anime-watching SwoleShack incel, so they just end up getting tired and fat after wage slaving all day
I'd wager most people on this board are "wage slaves" contrary to popular belief we aren't all bitcoin millionaires that wake up at noon or 40 year old NEETs.
> I'd wager most people on this board are "wage slaves"
This is true. And I guarantee 99% of you don’t work 7 days a week either.
My only days off are half of Saturday, and all of Sunday. That’s a day and a half of time I’ve got to meal prep for a week. I can meal prep a full weeks of food in a few hours (I do it on Saturday afternoon)
Learn to cook (YouTube is your friend), get some large pots and pans, a bunch of reusable containers, and just make a few different massive batches of meals that fit into your macros. Once you get going it becomes quite easy and very fun especially when you find new recipes to try out.
Despite working more or less full time, earning barely enough to scrape by, and commuting an hour a day, I still have time to work out daily, meal prep once a week, get groceries, and take care of my pets. People don't realize how much time they waste until they're short on it. Same goes for money.
I work 10 hours a day, slaving away in a physically demanding job I hate, and still get to the gym at least twice a week and run at least twice a week. Whats your excuse?
>My overall favorite is still blaming everything on a "thyroid problem"
And some do have sub clinical hypothyroidism +/- high cortisol, making their TDEE very low.
>I have to eat McDonalds
Yeah okay. But nobody is forcing you to eat in excess of your caloric needs.
A 1/4 lb with cheese and a water will hold you over and still clocks in as a very small meal. It’s satiety isn’t high but you’re going to sleep in a few hours anyway. Also
>12 hour shift
>4 hour overtime
Please name your job. I doubt.
>Please name your job. I doubt.
very common in places that do shift work, NEETcel
hospitals
fire department
emergency dispatchers etc
Yeah, firefighters are fat and subsist off of McDonald's. Ive worked 12 hrs or more routinely
>Big lunch pail
>Shit loads of tuna
>Jar of low fat PB
>Wasa crackers
>Precooked chicken and rice
Eat the meal preps and if you run out of that just eat packets of tuna every 1-2 hrs. Not hard, people just want foods with high saturated fats because it tastes good and they think, "I earned it"
Can't you just buy nuggets there
Technically you don't have to weigh your portions or limit yourself to lentils, you could even eat and remain at a healthy weight if you do eat McDonalds, just don't over eat, that is it. Instead of sticking to soda everywhere try water instead and instead of some supersized portion that triggers your dopamine whatever just eat the portion better suited for your lifestyle.
You don't understand, incel. Not drinking gallons of soda every day is too mentally taxing for us working class folk. You have to be a stoic tradlarper with willpower of steel to avoid cramming a 1600 calorie double cheeseburger meal down your throat every 4 hours while working a job.
Thats not what larp means
You don't have to measure anything. You canjust remember how much you are eating (4 sandwiches with nutella), look at the results (you are getting fat) and do something else next week (eat only 3 sandwiches of nutella)
Liar. I clopen and still manage. Meal prep, skip if you don't have time. Fast food takes longer lmfao.
>the only place is Mcdonalds or the vending machine
So eat a small portion there, it's that simple. Just get a burger and a salad, and don't pour the sauce onto the salad.
Also I don't believe there's anywhere you are working where the McDonalds is literally the thing you can reach in time. How about just eating two hours later when you're home?
You aren't working a 12 hour shift on the daily and you aren't doing 4 hours overtime on the daily.
Those might happen occasionally as an exception, but not as a norm.
The exception is not enough to make that big of a difference.
And if it was the norm, you'd already anticipate it and bring more food with you.
>normies
You answered your own question.
/thread
Mentality and lifestyle
Theyre not really trying or maybe they are making a fatal mistake like not tracking the food they eat or thinking fast food is fine if it has protein
People aren’t trying. They are only talking. Different shit.
The majority of people are never taught how to act; they’re taught how to talk.
If someone knows they’re fat, they will say “I’m so fat, I need to go on a diet” and read about diets and talk about going to the gym and etc etc but the actual act of breaking routine and making themselves a different life never happens. Change is scary, maybe that’s it. But personally I don’t think the average person is willing to leave the “life is good” mindset that comes with taking the path of least resistance.
Society facilitates getting fucking enormous AND won’t shame you for it AND is actually glorifying it AND giving you new ways to not love and keep eating every day? I had a hard day, what’s the harm in letting things be for one more night? Order the pizza, drink the beer, watch the tv. Don’t put the kids to bed, munch on some veggies and do some calisthenics: it’s trying too hard and you just can’t do it TODAY.
she's hot
Came here to say this
Squishy
Because most people have mental problems associated with their obesity. For example being depressed, anxiety, bipolar, family or relationship problems etc. So eating can be a escape valve for those problems.
Also, working people tend to get more on the lazy side of cooking because they can be exausted and planning and prepping takes time.
From what I usually see it's because of a bad childhood, bad parents who didnt regulate the food, giving a lot of sugar intake. Then on adulthood those people can't get a grip on routine or won't treat the mental issues. (and they like blaming a lot on whatever they can find because truth be told they don't have the perserverance, or are depressed, or have a bad personality/bad people surrouding).
Emotional turmoil. They never stood a chance
Normies will base every decision they make on norms. It is normal to eat when you are hungry, so you eat. It is not normal to walk to work instead of taking a drive, so you drive.
Average actions will always breed average results, and losing weight is not average.
Insightful post
unironically the NPC mindset. Most normies have no self awareness, they are born, they react to stimuli, and then die. If you put a coke and fires in font of one, the idea of not eating them is unfathomable to them
I can tell you why, from personal experience 10 years ago, and from my gf who “can’t lose weight”
>don’t diet properly
>don’t count macros/calories
>diet for a few days then go back to normal eating habits
>do useless gym routines and don’t push themselves fully
>don’t gym regularly enough
>think that going to the gym and doing an hour of bullshit means they can get McDonald’s on the way home
>give up after a month or two because they see no immediate results
>don’t push themselves
>give up because they see no immediate results
congrats. normies described right there: short-sighted and weak-willed.
Whys is she your gf? Sounds like you have different lifestyles and she sounds lazy on top of that.
Its annoying to count calories and most ppl cant be assed and the real fatties that try it out think the universe is unfair against them because they are only allowed like 3k calories a day oelr w.e
They think if they experience hunger they are dying. They dont realize you can just... not eat.
would
Bad mindset/attitude, habits, and culture.
Eating socially is a big one. Constantly going out with friends/coworkers to eat unhealthy restaurant food and drink alcohol. Also working a sedentary job and eating the garbage treats other people bring into the office. Normies don't count their calories and think they're eating healthy when they actually aren't
Any time I gain some weight from a bulk I just drink milk and don't eat anything for like 4 days and I'm back down to a normal weight without losing any muscle. Took me years to figure that out but now if I gain weight it's so easy to be skinny again thanks to the power of my milky.
>Why do Normies struggle so much to lose Weight?
Do they really?
I was told how hard it was, so I decided to just eat less and went from 120lb lardass to 60kg skelly in about 8 months. Currently doing a clean bulk to escape skellemode. Curiously, my male friends and family supported me but my former beta male and female friends tried to sabotage me. It was a good learning experience and I cut ties with them.
120kg lardass, not lb
I lost 45kgs of fat in a year and the only people that supported me were strangers, its funny how people you think of as friends change their attitude towards you once you get fit or when trying to get fit.
A guy I know for more than 15 years and though of my best mate every time we met (literally) was like 'eh you gonna give up soon, it is just for this month etc', never said a kind or motivational word. Meanwhile randoms at the gym approach every now and then to say congrats for the body recomp.
I've had an interesting mix of responses. My roommate supports my weight loss but tells me to be careful whenever I mention I'm only halfway down to where I need to be (120# / 10%BF)
they got fat in the first place
Because every virtue that leads to a healthy lifestyle is agressively shilled against by leftoid zealots.
It's quite simple. They don't have the mentality. This is why they're normies. They don't understand the commitment, discipline, intensity needed to persevere when the going gets tough.
Not everyone makes it. Not everyone is going to have a 6 pack. Not everyone is going to run a sub 8 minute mile. Not everyone is going to be able to bench / squat / deadlift 900 lbs. When they get hungry, they eat. They don't tough it out and try to make it to bed.
They don't go to the gym with the expectation of getting better. They'll do cardio for 20 minutes or until it actually starts getting difficult, then stop and go in the pool / hot tub before getting Chick-fil-A or Chipotle on their way home. They just want to "have fun running a 5K with their friends". They don't sniff a half marathon unless one of their friends on social media ran one.
Stay as far away from these people as possible. They will drag you down with them. You will become disgusted with their behavior knowing if they just put slightly above bare minimum effort, they would achieve everything they want out of life. They're just coasting.
Normies also have no idea what a healthy amount of food looks like
Because they are barely conscious. They technically know that they should eat less, but then they have already bought, opened and eaten that pack of cookies before they finished the thought.
They just live their life on autopilot with little control over what they do.
bc they dont even try
GENTLEMEN
i need ideas for food i can leave in my locker at work.
i already leave tuna cans, protein muesli bars, and a jar of peanut butter. i need other ideas. no sardines.
If you have a microwave, then microwaveable pasta and oatmeal. Cups of microwaveable rice. Hot sauce too.
Hot
