Losing weight and getting fit - Goals and Tips

[Tyler Star]

Do we have any people here trying to lose weight and get into shape? If so, I would love to hear about it, what do you weigh now, what is your goal, when do you plan to achieve it and what is your motivation.

I am doing this right now and thought I would share some tips that work for me. I weigh 92 kg, and my goal is to hit 75 kg in April next year, although it might take a month longer. To hit that goal would mean losing 17 kg in five months (21 weeks), for an average loss of 0,8 kg per week. I like to set difficult goals, so I aim for one kg per week as that pushes me to work harder, but in the end, I usually end up around 0,7 kg anyway if I can stick to the plan.

It’s not just about losing weight for me though; I also want to be fit after losing all that weight. So, I go to the gym and lift weights four to five times per week, plus 30 min cardio each time, this has worked out for me in the past. I am going five times per week right now as I am extra motivated after my last Pattaya trip, we’ll see how long I manage to stick to this.

One of the most important things when starting something like this is to create the habit and to build momentum, this makes it easier to push through when losing motivation, which will happen. Sticking to an exercise schedule should be just like eating regularly and brushing your teeth, not something that should ever be questioned, it should just be done. So, I always go to the gym on specific days and times each week, so my body gets used to it. Here are some other tips that has helped me succeed in the past: 

Motivation

Why am I doing this, what will I gain? How will it feel and what will I be able to do when I hit my goal? How much more energy will I have? Decide this and think about it often.

Weight loss plan

A plan for how much to lose each week and when to reach the goal. I weigh myself each Friday morning to track progress, currently also doing body measurements every four weeks. Most importantly: Don’t be hard on yourself if you don’t achieve a weekly goal, it will fluctuate.

Rewards

Have short time and long time rewards, I usually go with: 

• The days I go to the gym it’s just a thought: “I will feel amazing after working out” which is true
• Weekly: Eating some good food, drinks or similar on Friday/Saturday, or call an escort (seldom do that, to expensive, could be a monthly goal)
• Six months or when hitting the end goal: Something big to look forward to, Pattaya trip for example

Diet

The most important factor in losing weight, having a diet plan and even more importantly, sticking to it. Probably the hardest thing to do. Many ways to do this, I have my way but won't go into any detail in this post as it is such a huge area, would be interesting to discuss further though.

Exercise plan

Have a plan for each week as I said above, if you have never worked out start slowly though. You can of course lose weight without this, but if you want to get fit as well, you need some kind of exercise.

Jerking off

Don’t masturbate too much. I avoid it a day before going to the gym, then I have more motivation and energy when going. It also reduces the risk of me skipping going to the gym. I am not forcing myself to just jerk off on specific days but what works well for me is to do it on Tuesdays and Saturdays. Unless I meet up with a girl for sex, but slim change of that happening.

Your body will resist you

Your body does not want to change, it does not want to lose weight, it is perfectly content with staying at its current weight. This can affect you in multiple ways, resistance to doing anything that requires energy is the classic example. But also, seeing inconsistent results on the scale, I have had 0 weight loss three weeks in a row for example, being on the verge of despair that my whole plan does not work. Then suddenly on week four, I lose two kg in one week, then next week, minus 1,5 kg. I see this as my body testing me, trying to resist the transformation. You just have to push through these situations.

Of course, it could also mean you have to adjust your diet, if you eat too much you will not lose weight (energy in/out balance) or if you are not sticking to the plan.

Managing your mind

I am a perfectionist and have a lot of negative internal thoughts, so I need ways to manage this, otherwise I would give up at once or constantly beat myself up along the way. Motivation will fail, it may feel like it is taking forever, looking in the mirror and seeing how far I am from my goal, feeling or seeing no progress, being tired etc. 

It may sound simple, but I use a lot of affirmations to focus my mind in the right direction, to counter arguments that do not help me and to shut down thoughts that are unhelpful. I have many of these that usually roll around in the back of my mind or are triggered when certain thoughts occur. You need to practice repeating them first though, so you remember them. Here are a few that work for me:

• “75 kg in April” (focus on long term goal that motivates me, not how I look today)
• “Stop thoughts that do not help me” or “No mind” (stop any bullshit entering my mind that do not help me reach my goal)
• “I will feel amazing after working out” (motivation to go to the gym today)
• “Minus 1 kg to Friday” (focus on this week’s goal if I feel long term goal is far away or other negative thoughts)
• “One day at a time” (counter thoughts about end goal being far away or similar)
• “Results in 90 days” or “Work now rewards later” (don’t expect short time results, true change takes time)
• "Do the best I can" (avoid pushing to hard sometimes, cut myself some slack)

 

That's all I have for now, so let me hear about your current weight loss goals and motivations!

Seems like you have a really well planned journey. I am 68 kg at the moment and would like to lose 6-7 kg, mainly from my belly and man boobs. I am only dieting, nothing special just eating less for calorie deficit. I've done it in the past, the problem is when I go on holiday it all goes to shit and I have to start over.

• "Do the best I can" (avoid pushing to hard sometimes, cut myself some slack)

 

That's all I have for now, so let me hear about your current weight loss goals and motivations!

I find it interesting you say you're extra motivated after your last trip. Did Pattaya motivate you? If so, why? 

After my third trip finished in June, I weighed just over 97kg and I am under 6ft. I had eaten myself into a hole and part of that thinking was, well I am just going to Pattaya anyway so what does it matter what I eat? Not a healthy mindset to have. 

While I was away though I felt fat, whether it be at the beach or just with girls. It was no longer a jokey pum pui and just the truth. 

I decided, like you, that by my next trip I would lose all of the weight and aim for 70kg. I've just completed my 4th trip and upon starting I was 83kg. I didn't hit my goal but I have trained like hell, I got back in the boxing gym and its coming off. In 5 months I lost 14kg, I was injured for maybe a month and half of this too and couldn't train at all (still tried to eat right). I have the same as you, until the beginning of April to get further down. 

For me, its the little goals combined with a longer term one. I weigh every week and I know how I feel if its up so that's always in my head. I tend to weigh myself of Saturday morning and if I'm down on the previous week, I will order takeout. Knowing I can't get takeout unless I'm down is a motivator in itself. This combined with a holiday to look forward too and potentially getting back in the ring drive me every day. 

On a side note, I allowed myself this holiday and will my next to eat whatever I want while I'm away. Despite this, I had one English breakfast this time and it was enough for the whole holiday. I ended up eating healthy food by choice without realising.

Yeah if it works it works, I tend to overthink thinks. Might be worth it to gain a few kilos on vacation though, after a long stretch of eating healthily. I walked so much in Pattaya so expected to at least not gain weight but think I put on 1-2 kg, not to bad though. 

When you diet, do you just eat less in general or stop eating certain type of foods?

I eat less in general, twice a day just to satisfy my hunger. The only food I stop eating are sweets and sugar in general.

I was pretty motivated before as well, I planned to go down to 75 before that trip but had an incredibly stressful period at work and started to eat junk food to deal with it, so actually gained weight instead. 

But one reson that Pattaya motivated me is that I experienced that it is possible to meet younger chicks there and have good sex with them. Almost impossible to meet chicks younger than 30 at home when I am 44. The trip was amazing and I immediately want back to experience more of that. When I am in good shape I am more confident in general, have more energy and sweat less for example, also more horny. 

But I want to lost weight anyway, it's not specifically for Pattaya. On July 1st 2022 I was at 114 kg, one year later I was at 83 kg. So would really like to get that final stretch done, to get down to 75 kg. I like the idea of the total transformation from fat to incredibly fit, it feels impossible to do, but can be done.

Yeah I can understand that. For me, just being overweight in that heat makes me sweat a lot and feel like shit.  Having sex and getting sweaty and tired after five minutes is not fun. What I noticed when I was fit 10 years ago was that I didn't feel bad about sweating. A fit guy sweating is kind of hot lol.

That is amazing results over such short time, nicely done! Do you have a specific reward in mind in April? Or a trip or vacation planned for next year?

That's good if you can do that, I tried to do it but if I get a bad weigh-in on a Friday, that's when I am at my most vulnerable so I avoid depriving myself of rewards in those cases. I usually link the weekly rewards to doing he activities that I need to do that week, I have full control over those. Are you boxing now as well or just lifting weights at the boxing gym?

When I retired I was around 118kg (260lb). Over the next year I lost 18kg (40lb). I used a high Protein diet and got my meals down to two a day. Add a walk in for exercise. I lost about 2kg a month, slow but steady.

I hoping to lose another 18kg by May, next year.

To my understanding it's not possible to target an area; its the genes that determine which fat depot that'll be the first to go.

On a side note. I've dropped 6-8 kg the past 3 month and if your man boob's are of size you'll have alot of loose skin to play with; at least I have😋

You can target the pectorals (major/minor) for the "man boobs"

But it takes proper lifting technique, resistance, and calisthenics 

It's a hard process and requires dedication (months)

OFC it's possible with proper training but again; the skin can take up to a couple of years before it gain its permanent structure. My reply was to a BM who tried on a diet only and that won't target specific areas

Awesome!.. looks like a solid plan to meet your goals and strong determination to achieve.  Here are a few of my recommendations, these can be adjusted to loose weight as I do weight starts to climb.  Maintaining a good fitness by keeping strict schedule regardless where I am.  As you get older, this becomes more important!

6'1" (186cm), 180lbs (81kg), mid 60s. Medical conditions directly affect routines, what can and can not do. Weight fluctuates slightly +/- 2kg over long periods of time.

-When booking a place to stay, I look for a gym and pool included.  Not just a small wading pool, something I can swim laps in. Gym at a minimum free weights.

-Plan 5 smaller meals vs 3 larger: breakfast, snack, lunch, snack, dinner.  

-Depending on how active during the day determines how much to eat and how often. Reduce the amount or skip a meal. Most of the time skip a meal as I control the amount eaten very closely.  This takes some time learning how your body reacts to managing this.

-Snacks eat healthier focusing on fruits, fiber and protein.

-Meals eat what I want, small portions, enough to take away hunger, but not to feel full or stuffed/bloated... a snack is just around the corner 😉

-Maintain adequate hydration throughout the day.

-Morning exercises Monday - Friday, focus on stretching to loosen up the body. 3 sets, 10 reps each, all moving joints.

-Gym Monday, Wednesday, Friday, not heavy lifting, enough to feel the pump and slight burn. 3 sets, 10 reps each, legs, abdomen, chest, shoulder, back, arms. At home, no gym within reasonable distance, live on a farm... have simple free weight set.

-Daily morning walks (cardio) for 1 hour at normal pace, watch sunrise.  Have 2 Siberian Huskys, they keep me active all day at home.

-During the day, walk vs drive/ride (cardio), avoid transportation when feasible... walk vs baht bus.

-Swim daily (cardio) when possible when have access to a pool.  At home do not have access so use walks to compensate.

-Intake vs burn is key!.. over time managing this will be clear. If need to loose weight, increase burn and modify intake as necessary.

-Mental state has a direct affect on managing weight, fitness and stress!  Physical exercise is crucial part.  Smaller things like observing sunrise & sunset, morning coffee overlooking beach, doing simple things you enjoy like reading, puzzles, plastic models, computer games, etc...  are a few examples that also foster healthy mental state.

-This an integral part of my life, makes it very easy to maintain and manage and not forget or become lazy.

I have a female friend who is very heavy and wants to lose the weight (70 KG)

But, as you stated, losing the weight is the easy part, losing the excess skin is the hardest part

I’ve been ‘knocking about’ in Gyms for 40 odd years now - it’s just a big part of my life. I don’t take myself too seriously and keep fit for myself not any other reasons.

The start to my gym life was military training - probably the best and hardest in the world. The instructors were relentless and on occasions quite violent- but they knew how to get you fit. No weights training was allowed until you had lost most of your excess fat. ‘Fat Lads’ can’t do weights was the shout.

There is an awful lot of nonsense on YouTube these days from ‘born again fat lads’ giving unqualified advice on weights and diet etc - it may be helpful to some but needs some caution. The reason military training didn’t allow weights until the body fat had reduced was because of building muscle under fat. It was felt to be a problem particularly in the torso area. It would give an exaggerated body shape and possibly make you barrel chested. The only weights that ‘fat lads’ were allowed was their own body weight. They were given exercises just involving their own body weights - think press ups etc.

Overall the simplest maxim to work by is to use more calories than you put in ! It’s a simple equation really. Intermittent fasting helps. Alcohol is basically sugar,  so despite trying to justify it weight loss will always be more difficult if you carry on drinking.

You do you, but that's that's what I'd do if I wanted to gain weight. What works every time for me is intermittent fasting (at least 13 hours a day, ideally 16 hours or more), max 1-2 meals a day. You must allow your body to "starve" a bit, otherwise it will never burn any excess fat.

That's why It helps to lift weights, will fill out that chest with some muscles instead. 🙂

Regarding the skin, I have definitely felt that, going from 110 to 72 kg. Stomach looked pretty good when standing up but when doing some missionary exercises with girls, you can see that excess skin hanging down. In conclusion, I prefer doggy.

[Gonking]

Thank you, interesting tips, you seem to be very active. Swimming is something that I would want to do more of but it requires some more time to get to a pool, at least when home, whereas my gym is 10 meters from my apartment so it is extremely convenient. Love walking tough, when in Pattaya I walked home from Walking Street most times, along Beach Road. That walk is great, so much to look at.

I am 44 now, the hard thing is to keep the activity up over a long time, I am going to the gym five times per week now but won't be able to do that forever, will probably reduce that to four or maybe three at some point.

Nice to hear, that is a big weight loss. Good luck with the next stretch, a 30+ kg weight loss is like becoming a different person, people that have not seen you in a few years are usually chocked.

What works every time for me is intermittent fasting

Many people suggesting fasting, how many days do you fast per week? Every day?

I used to eat regularly, three meals per day and one small snack/fruit, on weekdays, more on Saturdays then fast the whole Sundays (no food whatsoever), it worked well, I lost maybe 0,6 kg per week for a year. Now I am eating more regularly each day but overall less food on a weekly basis than before. Depending on my results in a few weeks I may return to the previous structure.

[lovermand66]

I started working out last year when I turned 60.

I am 61 and have almost no rejecting from girls on TF and Bars
i like girls age 20-25 most 
(i am 45 year on my TF profil, and only fews girl’s questions my age when we meet.)

I send bodypictures in line if a girls are hesitating. 
that is normally do the tricks 😂

I do 16/8 intermittent fasting
2 meals 10am and 6 pm. 
cooked oatmeal with almonds and some rasins as 1. meal
and in evening i eat: salmon, beef steaks, pork, chicken breast, schrimps with mix salad, avocado etc. 
no alcohol and no smoking
Almost no soda water and sugar, candy etc…

i lost 6 kg in 3 months and building 2 kg in muscles 
my weight now is 85kg and i am 177cm
i go gym 3-4 times a week with lifting weights…
pro:  after 1 year. Normal blood pressure 125/84, low cholesterol 3,2 and 1,3 
more testosterone and more libido power
no medication a any kind…
my doctor is very impressed 

when i am in Pattaya i take a packet Kamagra daily dose
half dose in morning and half in evening. I mix it in water.
i found out that i work for me. (I normally see 2 girls a day.)

i will have to say that if you go for the most popular and beautiful girls on TF and in Bars, your success rate i high if you are fit and look healthy etc.
Price is lower and girls do enjoy sex more if the like you and your body…

I was pretty motivated before as well, I planned to go down to 75 before that trip but had an incredibly stressful period at work and started to eat junk food to deal with it, so actually gained weight instead. 

But one reson that Pattaya motivated me is that I experienced that it is possible to meet younger chicks there and have good sex with them. Almost impossible to meet chicks younger than 30 at home when I am 44. The trip was amazing and I immediately want back to experience more of that. When I am in good shape I am more confident in general, have more energy and sweat less for example, also more horny. 

But I want to lost weight anyway, it's not specifically for Pattaya. On July 1st 2022 I was at 114 kg, one year later I was at 83 kg. So would really like to get that final stretch done, to get down to 75 kg. I like the idea of the total transformation from fat to incredibly fit, it feels impossible to do, but can be done.

 

Yeah I can understand that. For me, just being overweight in that heat makes me sweat a lot and feel like shit.  Having sex and getting sweaty and tired after five minutes is not fun. What I noticed when I was fit 10 years ago was that I didn't feel bad about sweating. A fit guy sweating is kind of hot lol.

 

That is amazing results over such short time, nicely done! Do you have a specific reward in mind in April? Or a trip or vacation planned for next year?

 

That's good if you can do that, I tried to do it but if I get a bad weigh-in on a Friday, that's when I am at my most vulnerable so I avoid depriving myself of rewards in those cases. I usually link the weekly rewards to doing he activities that I need to do that week, I have full control over those. Are you boxing now as well or just lifting weights at the boxing gym? 

Yeah that's fair enough and well done on losing so much dude, your body will no doubt be thanking you too. 

Damn right about sweating, a little extra weight and its pretty grim during sex. 

I will go back to Thailand again in April, I'm actually considering leaving Pattaya alone this time. I like the idea of Koh Chang but I can't tell if there's enough action there to keep me entertained. Mixed reviews online re the lady scene. 

That's true, I've talked with others who say the same and stick to a monthly or bi-monthly weigh in as the weight loss is more likely to show in that period. Rewarding yourself after the activities has the same effect though so a good way to do it, if you put the work in it will come off. Nah I rarely lift weights and if I do they're more cardio based exercises rather than intentionally building muscle; I train 2-3 times a week then spar every Saturday, getting punched in the stomach hurts more when you're fat so its an added motivator.

Many people suggesting fasting, how many days do you fast per week? Every day?

Yes everyday. The simple 16/8 recommendation is the one I have followed for a few years now. I never eat outside of mealtime’s either. Just 2 meals a day and that’s it.

It would be better to weigh yourself every day, so that you can see the trend despite the daily fluctuations.

I started working out last year when I turned 60.

I am 61 and have almost no rejecting from girls on Tf and Bars
i like girls age 20-25 most 
(i am 45 year on my TF profil, and only fews girl’s questions my age when we meet.)

I send bodypictures in line if a girls are hesitating. 
that is normally do the tricks 😂

I do 16/8 intermittent fasting
2 meals 10am and 6 pm. 
cooked oatmeal with almonds and some rasins as 1. meal
and in evening i eat: salmon, beef steaks, pork, chicken breast, schrimps with mix salad, avocado etc. 
no alcohol and no smoking
Almost no soda water and sugar, candy etc…

i lost 6 kg in 3 months and building 2 kg in muscles 
my weight now is 85kg and i am 177cm
i go gym 3-4 times a week with lifting weights…
pro:  after 1 year. Normal blood pressure 125/84, low cholesterol 3,2 and 1,3 
more testosterone and more libido power
no medication a any kind…
my doctor is very impressed 

when i am in Pattaya i take a packet Kamagra daily dose
half dose in morning and half in evening. I mix it in water.
i found out that i work for me. (I normally see 2 girls a day.)

i will have to say that if you go for the most popular and beautiful girls on TF and in Bars, your success rate i high if you are fit and look healthy etc.
Price is lower and girls do enjoy sex more if the like you and your body…

it has been a big game changer for me…
 

Thanks for sharing this, nice to hear that this is achievable past 60 if you treat your body right. I have to read up on intermittent fasting, how much to eat at each meal and so on, might try that at some point.

Yup, I want the girls to want me, to the extent that is possible under the circumstances.
