It's shit, of course. NCT, moles, bug eyes and no jawline
How'd you do it? I've gone down to 240 a couple of times but I plateau hard and snap back up to 260/270. My body just desperately wants to be fat.
I bounced back up 50lb over 7 months before too, when I started playing online final fantasy again.
Seeing as you asked... It was rather cheap. Calorie deficit, lots of counting calories. Stopped drinking cola, and chips. Lots of food is to be avoided for example, soy (very hard I know it's in everything), flour, sucrose, sodium chloride. There is so many "super foods" you really can't eat them all, nor should you try. My dietary staples would be eggs, red onion, broccoli, cottage cheese, some dinners are canned tuna or chicken spinach salads. Those foods seems to work for me, while alternating all sorts of shit, like the food that are suppose to be good for testosterone, and vitamins (except zinc, it makes me ill all day). With intermittent fasting of 8hrs can eat the food, 16hrs no food, it was uncomfortable until I got used to it, now I can fast 24-72hrs but I only did 72hrs once... A good month I would lose 10lb. Some months I fell of and drank booze for days, binge ate crap, and that was a waste of two weeks basically. I try to walk an hour say 3 times a week. I work out with weights 1-2 times a week, get sore... take supplements and recover. Squats are suppose to be really good for building muscle and burning fat. Don't bother doing ab exercises... Spot reduction training is a myth.
I didn't get super fit by any means, my shitty fat distribution genetics revealed themselves, I have some lose skin. But now I am spending a bit more on protein, and working out more times a week in an attempt to build more much needed upper body mass.
There is obviously more too it but that's a little bit of my outline. First time I lost weight I was getting lightheaded all the time too, it did get easier. If you weigh yourself with the same scale at the same time every day and see progress, you're more likely to tune up your diet and keep with it. I wouldn't say no pain no gain because it wasn't really painful. I'm not very hardcore but it just took patience and real time. It makes no fap more likely a practice too. But too much of a change all at once can really feel like deprivation and most likely you'll want to fall off hard. Like I did a few times. Oh ya and some writers said you actually should have a cheat day every 7 days. I found I would just feel hungry and eat a lot on some random days, and I would just consider that a cheat day.
I will also edit in that it requires stability in your housing situation, access to the kitchen + fridge. Which is actually not something to take for granted. Any routine is very difficult when surrounded by assholes, or stuck in some shit living situation.
