Turning fat into Silver

[Danetime]

Hello everyone,

I'm new here to the forums and looking to start my own stack. As I've grown older and started to enjoy the finer things in life like wine, cheese etc. Like some I've gained a few pounds here and there and really struggled to lose it. In my case its the motivation that is the killer for me. So when I see people talk about there yearly stacking goals I wanted to do the same but with a little twist.

So my plan is that every pay day (monthly) I'll step on those scales and see how much weight I have lost and then turn that weight into Silver.  The plan is to lose the weight maybe a pound or two a month else this would be a real expensive hobby.

That sounds awesome ☺️

? Although it might be worth bearing in mind down the line that muscle is denser than fat, so weight loss may well taper off even if you're turning hench

It's is a very addictive hobby for a lot of people  may be you should reward yourself for a no weight gain month say 1/4 lb then on a weight loss month go bigger to your budget good luck

If you put weight on some months I will send you my address to send some of your stack to me

Why not do it the other way?

Put up your target weight and set aside a amount for every pound over that

That way you cant loose

You got silver or some weightloss

Most people who try to lose weight end on putting it back on and more besides. Weight gain or loss is more than just diet, it is your whole life style. That is why it is so hard to get the weight off and keep it off. There was a programme on ITV this week, i listened to a bit, it was going on in the background. Diabetics on an 800 calorie diet for a month. A stunt for the cameras to make a programme.

Aim to confine your eating to a window of time - say 6 hours - nothing before or after. If you are fasting for 18 hours a day it will force your body to switch into ketosis and burn fat. You are not eatin less you are shifting your eating time.

Cut out as many carbohydrates as you can. Especially cut out processed food. Processed food is generally full of fructose-glucose syrups. They are cheap, they add taste and they are poison. Fructose is half of table sugar. We become addicted to carbohydrates releasing sugars into the body. We get a sugar rush, our metabolism then has to quickly get it out of the blood or we would be diabetic and it is turned into fat. Then we crave another sugar rush and so it goes on. Fructose causes fatty liver.

Eat in a window - intermittent fasting - get rid of processed food - cut carbs down - no bread, no potatoes, nothing made with wheat flour, no pasta ----> no sugar rush.

Eat more saturated fat - lard, dripping, butter. Ger rid of all the vegetable oils - they are poison. The polyunsaturates oxidise very easily, it is the last thing you should be cooking with. A lot of the processed (vegetable) fatty foods still have trans fats in and they cause cancer.

People were told to stop eating saturated fat. They had to eat more carbohydrate to make up the calories. They switched to margarine and vegetable oils. This was for health. The result is obesity has gone up, diabetes has gone up, heart disease went up, cancer went up. People are sicker. The advice is wrong. It is killing people.

If you follow this advice and you steer clear of faddy diets you will be able to lose some weight, get rid of the metabolic syndrome which you almost certainly will have, get rid of the fatty liver which you almost certainly have and you will be able to stack silver. Win win win.

Pretty sure coco pops, KFC and milkshake bars had more of an influence in my case

Great goal! are you thinking about 1 oz rounds per lb or premium coins because the cost can be significant between the two...

[BleyerBullion]

Fantastic goal, best of luck!
