The former.

In that case congratulations.
What specific dietary changes and work outs have you been doing if I may ask?

Just eating less in-general really.

Yes.

Yes.

Good cause otherwise that'd be bad

[Chernoslavia]

Yes.

It's more of what you eat than it is how much you eat, imo.

[ImperialRussia]

eat as much protein to gain muscle

When you're dieting you need a certain amount of protein or your body will begin cannibalizing itself. They recommend about 120-150 grams of protein for men who are dieting, and the average of 50 that a sedentary man would need is not enough

Worked out again but this time at evening.

I have a question, what time is best to work out? Morning or evening?

Recently I started strength training, and I’m already seeing good results. Mentally and physically I’ve just felt amazing, and I’m going to start training for a mini-triathlon that I’m doing this summer in about 4 months. I don’t plan to get first place, I don’t really care about how fast I am I just want to be able to complete it.

For me it’s been best to go at night. Your gym will probably be more crowded, but it helps so much with sleep (which I’ve struggled with for my whole life).

It's more personal preference than anything. I prefer mornings because it feels nice to just get it out of the way, though oftentimes I'm so busy I can't do my run/swim/weight lifting or what have you till late at night.

Mid-day is always the worst, it just feels awkward and it's always packed at the gym or pool around those times.

Muscular strength is highest in the afternoon while blood pressure is at its highest near noon

I am in good shape. My BMI is 23.2 which falls in the normal category. I eat about twice as much as the average person, but I have a fast metabolism and as a blue collar worker, I get a ton of exercise on a regular basis. My fiancee loves the way I look, but for some reason she sees herself as overweight, even though she has a nice figure and a BMI of 22.3. I think she looks perfect, but I guess as a Japanese person she is more self-conscious about her weight.

In Japan, only sumo wrestlers are allowed to be built like a sperm whale. Here in america, that's a huge part of the population

Yup, and sumo wrestling is a dying sport. At this point it is really just foreign tourists and a few elderly Japanese that still watch it. It's heyday ended in the 1990s.

At least trump likes it. The audience could be almost empty and he'd be in the back yelling "YEAH HIKARI, KICK HIS ASS!"

honestly, ridiculous.

...but that's how it works. You cant really build muscle if you aren't getting a decent amount of protein in your diet

True, although if you eat too much protein without exercising enough your body will just convert it to fat.

^comment of mine wasn t made to be uneducated, this case pardon. seriously, this wave is anti-scientific grotesque of meat feast as an argument.

or worse, bad meat* feast. ask to your physician, or better to some of your proches studying medicine or biochemistry, he-she will say you all you wish.

*low quality

[South Ccanda]

So, I'm planning on losing about 60 pounds. Currently, I'm fairly active, although I don't really work out. My biggest problem is that I eat like garbage. I can say though, after recording my weight for over a year, I have stopped really gaining weight. I have gained a total of 5 pounds overall in the past year. So I assume I should start off by changing my diet. I don't want to try anything too altering, like completely cutting carbs from my diet or something, I just need to figure out a diet plan that I would most of the crap out and start me off on a steady decline so that when I actually start to work out, I will have the energy to do so.

I've gotten into olympic-style weight lifting recently.

That shit is tough.

[Las Islas de Metanoia]

Im taking Protein Shakes now but I also want to lose weight is this ok?

Do you do squats, too?

You think that's tough? Try to do that without making next to any noise. I got a weight set in the basement and now that it's cold as hell I don't wanna head out to the gym so I just exercise down there. I gotta be quiet as hell cause if I grunt or yell, I know my mom is gonna be like "WHAT'S WITH ALL THE DAMN NOISE!?"

I can't wait to move out in summer lmao
