General Health and Fitness thread

I had dinner. It wasn’t very healthy. The synagogue I go to has a free snack bar. They have cake, chips, guacamole, cheese, etc.
That’s one of the few social events I attend in the week, so I didn’t really feel like dieting that evening.
In any case tho I lost a pound that day so I think I’m probably doing alright.
I try to moderate my calorie deficit so that I don’t lose more than 3 pounds a week. Tho usually I feel like I have been losing 1 lb on average.
Some weeks I even plateau, but I have still had a significant monthly weight drop for the past few months. Think I’ll keep doing that till summer of 2025.

Thanks to my knee injury i haven't been able to do kickboxing all summer or run and my weight loss has plateud. I still lift consistently and do whatever cardio i can but i'm gonna be a little more strict on the diet this month to drop these last few pounds.
I'm currently 83-82 kg but i wanna be 79-78 ideally.

Made the comment in the General Discussions thread but I'm going to start running on the treadmill again.
Made 6 miles yesterday before stopping.
Always room for improvement.
Oct 1, 2024: was supposed to burn 700 cal, but did 158 more.

I did a couple of other runs after that one but breaking the thousand calorie mark is still tough.
There's still room for improvement though since cutting 5 to 10 minutes in a 100 min. run can usually be done by running at a steady pace for a bit longer before stopping for a break.
Some speedrunning never hurts though, running 1 or 2 miles for time and then attempting to reduce the time it takes to run those distances.

So I decided to cut some weight a month ago after a somewhat long bulk, to make it managable mentally I decided to do intermittent fasting with an 8 hour window, on most days my plan was to hit 2 meals. To break my fast I'd definitely avoid shitty meals so I started eating clean by default, and I enjoyed the meals more than I imagined, eventually I cut down carbs completely.
For around a month I only ate red meat, mostly steaks or some burgers occasionally, for the first meal, and the second was a dozen eggs more or less with shit loads of butter, basically 16 hour fast carnivore bulk. On some days I'd also hit the gym (resistance training only) while fasted
The results are honestly insane, my bodyfat melted like butter, and I put on considerable muscle for such a short period, legit thought someone snuck some gear into my food.
And I got a shit ton stronger too which is cool
