Eating Dude:
Hi,
I gained about 40-45lbs actively since I heard about this. It took me about 1,5 years.The pounds came just because I ate what I want. After some months of eating less (not by instance) I lost a bit and then gained it back and so on.
Some weeks I stuffed my face with 4500 calories a day and I loved eating a lot - still love it.
But now with 203lbs and 5,97ft (bmi about 27,7) I realised that my face got extremely chunky compared to maybe 194lbs.
My concern:
On one hand I want to loose weight maybe to 190lbs because then I like my face more. On the other hand I don't want to get skinnier on my belly and everything, because I love my chubby body! I'm even excited to see what I'd look like with 220lbs. But because of my face and double chin I'm a bit scared to gain more.
Has anyone experienced something similar? What would you advise?
Munchies:
Until you can decide what you want, just maintain for now.
Eating Dude:
But if maintaining means also occasionally eating two pizzas for dinner just because I want it =longterm weight gain?
What maintaining looks like in practical terms depends on your lifestyle and metabolism. You'll have to find your own balance. But the goal is to have a stable weight.
