Weight Loss.

I need help with a food plan please. I am 6"8 370lbs. I just made myself a work out plan i just need food ideas?
I wish I started at 370lbs, OP don't jump on a treadmill or do cardio to lose weight. You will need dietary fats to build muscle. You need to jump on a stronglifts program, your diet changes what you look like not what exercises your doing.
My biggest fear is having a huge flabby belly... i don't want to have to have a tummy tuck or anything.

But you don't, that's not even close to how it works. Stop giving advice.

Lets say I start as a little 120lbs lifter, I bulk to 300lbs the whole time im lifting. I can cut to 200 and be extremely massive single digit bf.

Same for him, he can maintain his current mass and lift with the mass he has.. don't fucking drop to 130lbs you know how hard it is to bulk back up to 370.

And you build muscle slower at higher bf% so it would be pretty stupid to bulk up to 300 from 120.

Also you will never be single digit bf% and over 200 lb unless you're on gear or you are like 7'5

"Also you will never be single digit bf% and over 200 lb unless you're on gear or you are like 7'5"

Thanks for the new signature 🤣

Also you do need some sort of "dietary" fats in order to gain muscle whether is its calorie surplus or whatever the case is to maintain.

don't lose weight too fast to avoid having that extra skin, maybe lift in the meanwhile as well... i guess

I hope your not agreeing that its not possible to be over 200lbs and single digit bf. (I know several people who go to the same gym as me that are natty 210-230lbs and single digit bf easy) Although that is true not to lose weight quickly because it will leave you with saggy extra skin.

Sounds like a pretty bullshit scenario here. Op should be lifting while he's dieting and doing cardio. Claiming that he needs his body fat to build muscle is objectively incorrect.

Lol you must have never heard of bulking, if he does cardio hes gonna drop weight quick and end up with extra skin regreting his decisions.

Cardio isn't going to make him suddenly skinny.

I didn't say it would make him suddenly skinny, doing cardio will make you drop weight quickly. Doesn't matter how amazing his diet is its about how consist and dedicated he is.

Okay. 🤦‍♂

You can have the best nutritionist, the best diet plan god made and still not see the results you want unless you put in work for it.

Please just stop.

Lol I eat hamburgers, fries all the junk food you could think of and still sit at 165-170lbs abs low bf% explain that one with your diet knowledge

And Of course you need to eat less calories than you burn to lose weight.

The biggest part about losing weight is diet.

Whether you believe it or not, the amount of calories you eat is the only thing that matters. There's a measurement called TDEE that tells you how many calories you need to intake to maintain your current weight based on factors such as height, weight, gender, and exercise.

You can calculate it here:
http://iifym.com/tdee-calculator/

Given the stats that you posted ( 6'8, 370 lbs), the age on your profile (24), and assuming that you're a male who exercies about 5 times per week. You can eat about 4000 calories per day and maintain your weight. If you want to cut weight in a healthy way, reduce that number by 500. This will have you losing about 1 pound per week. Of course you could go lower than that if you want to, but you will begin to feel some minor side-effects.

Weight loss isn't that difficult, but it takes time. Just remember that.

Best of luck. 🤝
You my man are the best 🤝🤝

...?

😑

Calories are important when it comes to losing weight. Quote me exactly where I said
"it has nothing to do with diet"

I might have said that "it doesn't matter how amazing your diet is" but you still need some sort of calorie diet retard.

Also you forgot to change your signature, since your gym is apparently filled with guys who look like Jeff Seid but are nattys? 🤝

I'm yet to be quoted on "it has nothing to do with diet" lol

Also an amazing diet would consist of a lot more then just watching calories..

I was going to quote you on how retarded you sounded. I will be over 200 before I leave highschool as I'm 170lbs now and low bf no steriods 16
