Infinitely harder to lose weight

[taiyuu_otoko]

Bro science, particularly with weight loss, is cope.

Eat less is all you need.

Be hungry, and don't eat so much.

Everything else is cope.

Be hungry, and don't eat so much.

Any tips for not eating when hungry? For getting past the cravings

What I tend to do is reach for some food, drinks and get women over to drink and have fun.

I'm of the mindset that when you are hungry your body is not adequately fueled and you should eat. That is why you are hungry. The trick is to eat fewer calories while eating.

Don't drink your calories. Cut out all carbs at dinner. And cut out all non-essential fats where possible (aka, try to only eat polyunsaturated fats found in nuts, seeds, and fish). You will get absolutely shredded following this. Trust me.

Thats the problem. In order to be lean in middle age you have to be slightly hungry all the time.

I dont like this. I dont like this one bit lol.

Also its easy to ignore hunger when you excercising outside.

Its hard to ignore it when you are at a desk from 9 to 5pm.

It takes a while to train yourself to ignore hunger.

For me, it became easy once I was eating only one meal per day.

And lay off the carbs. A diet heavy in carbs makes it infinitely more difficult to not eat when hungry.

Keeping busy away from home helps.

Drink water. Eat fruit. Eat vegetables. Eat an egg. All are low calorie options that will fill you up. Water of course has none.

It's harder but not impossible. I lost 80 lbs in my mid 40s over 14 months.

You don't need to eat perfect, you don't need to exercise crazy. Try adding in walking for an hour a day even if it's split up into 4 15 minutes segments. And make sure those segments are after eating.

Walking is the most underrated fat burner there is. Also, sleeping 7-8 hours at night is crucial or else you are simply trying to climb Mount Everest due to putting your hormones in a fat storing state instead of a fat burning state.

^^ This! I started to get back into trying to get 10-12k steps in via slow/moderate speed walking (despite being an avid walker otherwise) and it has definitely helped. I also split it up into 2-3 sessions spread across my day.
