BMI update: i have lost a lil too much weight. eating more figs and ice cream

For real though, you should really consider trying to get up to 22-23 BMI. Being right on the cut off of "normal" isn't healthy. It's associated with higher mortality. School is over soon, so gonna start running so I'm not so god damned fat.

Running is hella-tough when you are overweight. What tends to happen is the muscles will tire trying to support the weight, and as that happens we compensate subconsciously with our bones, which could result in sore joints and especially shin splints

You’d probably enjoy working out more if you started with something like cardio hiking or swimming, depending on how overweight you are

If you insist on running, I would recommend paying careful attention to your running form (don’t let it slack), and stop before you tire too much. I know it seems counterproductive to stop early, but it will prevent compensating with the bones. Hurting your joints or getting nasty shin splints will limit you far more than stopping early did

Running is a thin man’s game. I personally love it, but I didn’t love it until I had lost all the fat and could maintain a certain pace comfortably almost indefinitely. Prior to that it was hell on earth when I was fat

Quotes dont work on my laptop for some reason. Yeah, good call regarding weight and running. I'm like 15-20 over. I've been 185-215 my entire adult life and I'd like to try life in the 170s one more time, last seen age 17. I think my plan is to do intermittent fasting and stationary bike 45 mins a day + walking to get like 195 real quick. I lost 5 lbs in a week last time I did that, likely not fat but weight is weight as far as my knees care. Back when I was walking 5 miles an evening, my body got to the point where it just wanted to run. I'm nowhere near that well conditioned, so that's probably a good start.. get on my doomer night walks again.

I really just want energy and improved mental health more than anything. Brain fog and depression are wrecking me atm. Zero energy and critical thinking / executive functioning not where I want it in the hospital and that's severely troubling.

At 22 was my last major suicide attempt. Being that suicidal made it ez 2 not eat.

I get super gaunt at at 180ish and I'm not excited to be bullied into striving for that again, but the almighty bmi scale says I need to be 182 now since I lost half an inch of height.

No idea what my BMI is, but I’m 6’0 220lbs, probably around 12% bodyfat
