I desperately want to lose more weight faster. I've been doing 5x5 for about 2 months now, and I've started wanting to supplement with cardio in between workout days. Nothing that stressful even.

But I can't even get my heart rate up because my calves and legs just can't keep up with moving my fatass around.

It's depressing.

Do I just have to build up more muscle to do the cardio or am I doomed until I lose more weight.

By cardio i have been meaning jogging and such.

~265 lbs.

In your situation it's 90% about diet and 10% exercise.

I'm not OP, but I am a comparable fatass who's been only able to lift one day a week because of fucking work.

because of working at a bar, thus having free meals during work, my diet consists of this:

>Breakfast

Eggs - two of them, always part of breakfast at work, no exceptions, only a few times have I deviated from this

Milk - whole milk 8 ounce glass

Bacon - ever since I started lifting, bacon has tasted three times more delicious than usual.

Potatoes - standard order usually ranges about one fistful of potatoes at times.

toast - rye bread, basically one of those loaves with huge slices too big for toasters, so the cook cuts one slice in half. margarine is spread on it. I eat it with strawberry jam spread on it.

>the following sometimes replaces both potatoes and toast, I do not eat all of these in a single sitting.

waffle - one giant waffle, with syrup poured into the holes, and covered with whip cream that is basically a mixture of whipping cream, powdered sugar, and imitation vanilla.

pancakes - three pancakes, the worst of my choices, because this usually ends up being too much for me to finish.

Biscuits and gravy - half order with eggs, no bacon. tasty, but not very filling.

>Lunch

>drink

orange juice - 8 ounce glass, just like the milk, with ice because orange juice is watery enough to warrant it and it keeps it cold..

>meal type one

Bacon Cheeseburger - stereotype notwithstanding, meat is in-house ground, good shit. cheese is american, because melting is the only thing it's good for.

sweet potato fries - been trying to keep it at half size, full order is usually two fistfuls. one of our cooks that usually works on the patio doesn't know what the hell a half order is.

>meal type 2

nachos - chips and cheese, sometimes with beef taco meat. I like to autistically cover the plate so it's almost flat as possible, and I can layer the cheese and meat in between chips. cooks like to take a pile of chips and dump cheese an meat on it, because reasons.

>meal type 3, rarely lately.

pepperoni pizza - slather the fucker in sauce, cover it with just enough cheese to give no exposure when it melts, put a balance of pepperoni and it's good shit. the problem is, I end up eating half of it, it's not a thin crust, to boot, a few pieces are not as filling.

>meal type 4

chicken jalapeno soup - everywhere I go, not just at work, wherever there's a chicken jalapeno soup, it's like crack cocaine, what the fuck.

salad - lettuce, onions, carrots, a handful of croutons, and light drizzling of ranch, used to put like… two ounces of it, but when I learned about how easy it is to consume calories in ranch I decided "fuck that".

>meal type 5 - usually dinner if I end up staying late

Grilled cheese - many different cheeses on two fuck-huge pieces of bread.

tater tots - crispy tasty, too easy to munch them, portion size is similar to the sweet potato fries.

>Meal type 6 - I should be doing this more often, or at least make a salad with it.

Chicken sandwich - marinated, unbreaded chicken, grilled and served on a wheat bun.

tater tots or sweet potato fries as seen above.

>dessert at home

choclate chip cookie dough ice cream - good shit, but I probably should be sticking to vanilla and a sprinkle of nesquick.

>sometimes I eat this with it, but usually I do the below seperate

popcorn - 1/3 cup popped in canola oil, no butter, salted with pink sea salt, and streamer rage.

Especially if he is a 265 pound midget.

People don't understand how much of the shit they put in their mouth turns into sugar inside of their bodies.

Cut the goddamn carbs by half, or more, and get rid of the sugar almost entirely if you can.

I can almost promise you you'll drop 20 pounds in no time at all if you cut soda and sugary drinks.

Are you? De novo lipogenisis takes more work than storing dietary fat as a triglyceride. The presence of sugar allows cells to become optimistic in that they feel free to save dietary fat for later instead of burning it immediately. Proponents of low sugar diets ignore that a person can just lower dietary fat intake to avoid becoming fat instead of superstitiously avoiding the main fuel of life, sugar.

If your bullshit is true, how did humanity survive through the hunter/gatherer era? There's little to no sugar in animal meat and naturally occurring vegetables that can be eaten without preparation. Even fruits used to be far less sweet and much smaller, before being bred into their modern form by humans.

Strawman hunter gatherers eat no carbs (except when stuck on frozen wastelands like Eskimos, which should be considered an exception, not the rule). Real hunter gatherers like the Hadza pick berries and tree fruit, dig up roots and tubers, and see the most refined sugar of nature, honey, as their favorite food. In the absence of dietary carbs or sugar, the body will go out of its way to make sugar through processes such as gluconeogenesis, and deprivation that continues long enough will result on reliance of secondary fuel sources such as ketones - that in themselves bestow positive health benefits - but are paid for by enduring a context of extreme metabolic stress.

Avoid high fat food, refined carbs, and go easy on the carbs in general. Eat lean meats, SMALL amounts of healthy fats (nuts, eggs, etc.), and carbs that are low on the glycemic index. Eat fiber to help fill yourself up, Metamucil for example.

And just because a food is healthy doesn't mean you are allowed to binge on it. You can get fat off of lettuce if you eat enough of it.

Hello, please consider the square-cube law and calculate your BMI. BMI is defined as your weight in kilograms over the square of your height in meters.

It is not a definite measure, but still a good indicator. (If you would also tell us both your height and weight explicity that'd be great.)

I'm not sure you share exactly the same problem as OP but you're the only one who's posted a diet.

If he means glucose which is what productors (plants, lowest in food chain) produce, he might be making sense. Though I always make a distinction between simple sugars (monosaccharides) and other carbohydrates.

Refer to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbohydrate_metabolism

Completely cut out all refined carbs. Whole grain stuff is good. Eat whole grain oats/bread, It has glycemic index is similar to protein and your body is expecting the nutrients that go with carbs.

Your breakfast should be maximum 2 of the things on that list. People are busy in the morning, don't waste time packing in calories.

Replace milk with 0% fat milk. Cow fat is bad unless it's grass fed or fed from organic nonsoy feed. It contains much estrogen from the soy it eats, don't eat soy either. Estrogen makes it very tough to lose weight. Buy lean meats unless they're grass fed for the same reason. There are some other vegetable oils that contain much estrogen. do research

For lunch, meal type 4 or 6 is a yes, the rest is fatman food

dinner should consist of 1 serving protein, 1 serving unrefined carb like salted baked potato, and 1 serving vegetable.

no desert fatman, no orange juice

do cardio when u can. remember 1 cheat like waffle is 2 hours hard labor to fix

That's surprising to hear, you must be a total cream puff then.

I usually assume anyone under 300 pounds and over 6 foot would at least have decent legs carrying their fat asses around.

Broccoli kale and cauliflower are good, but if you want my advice on preventing yourself from over eating, then just stuff your fat face with celery every time you want a snack.

Eat a normal meal, and if it doesn't cut it, shove celery down your throat.

Eventually you'll just stop wanting a snack, but in the meantime you'll feel full.

And as that moron didn't understand, carbs like rice can turn into sugar in your system.

It's a great filler for a meal if you're poor but unless you're already doing a lot of running you should avoid large portions of carbs like rice.

I'm almost considering you are trolling like >>127815.

If your bar serves edible green stuff, get that for half your plate then choose one portion of your meals. Man up and say:

> Yo Jose, can I get the burger, no bacon, no fries, shitton of greens onna side? Thanks hombre.

I also recommend developing a taste for coffee and tea since you can really reduce your sugar that way. You can sweeten it a bit if you'd like, but even a couple pinches is way better than OJ. Big glass has 2 heaping scoops of the big fucker on the left here.

Cardio? Try shadowboxing and workout those triceps while you're at it.

And think about this, do you walk more in your life than you do run? Then walk more in your exercise than you do run if you can manage. People who run more than they walk typically run more than they walk…

I'm 230 and I can run-walk a mile and a half in about 15-20 minutes.

Don't listen to the dingii telling you to cut sugar. Natural carbs are fine, just cut down your 'cheat days' more and more until you start (((feeling))) the results. Feel the results first, don't go soul searching for results in a mirror.

the ball of your foot lands first when you run, not your heel. this puts the shock absorption from landing in your calf muscles instead of your joints.

General advice:

I'm in trouble just like you and working on it.

From my experience… sorry, reading that, I don't think you're going to have the willpower to just tough it out. You are showing signs of addiction and habituation. Your best bet is a complete lifestyle change, I mean MOVING to a different place, replacing your friends, getting a new job. Even if it's lower paying, if you lose weight, you'll live longer, and get the same amount of cash in the end. If you move and get another job, it gives you a chance to start over.

Concrete advice:

Start by removing junk food, flash frozen food, fast food, and soul food. No potatoes, waffles, pancakes, biscuits, gravy cheeseburger, fries, nachos, tacos, pizza, cheese, chocolate, ice cream, popcorn.

Remove salt from your diet entirely, do not buy anything with salt in it, do not eat it at all.

Replace your carb portion with bananas or similar high kalium food. Protein is fine whatever it is. Leafy greens are fine whatever they are. Rest should be antioxidant fruit, usually purple, try to go low carb.

Anyway this is what I'm planning to do soon.
