Welcome to TID, Neil ... where are you from? You speak/write English fluently, but I get the sense it is not your first language?

TID differs from most bodybuilding boards in that most of the active members here have decades of experience, which brings a level of training and diet knowledge you won't be able to find in many places.

Lol, @genetic freak may be the most liked person here. He, more than most, contributes a LOT to this board. I think a very subtle language barrier may have hindered your acceptance here, but if you are patient some patience will come back your way. Understand, TID is not a beginner board, but many members have the "missionary spirit" about this lifestyle. They won't hold your hand forever, but they can get you started.
China mainland, Thanks for guiding and giving me confidence. It is much appreciated.

Is there much physique/bodybuilding there? I know what Americans call Olympic Lifting has been important in China, but I don't know about Powerlifting, bodybuilding, and Strongman. ALL of those are represented on TID, but bodybuilding gets the most attention.

Some here compete in any of the above, some used to but are still fans, and some are fans only who still follow the lifestyle.

All these Guy Fawkes masks are confusing the hell out of me.
Ask around. I been using this for a very long time and if you know my background, it makes some sense.

I am 183cm 95kg now. I used to be 80KG at my lowest weight. I always have big weight and I feel like I am gaining food energy very well. I ran everyday for 4 miles in the past and did't have dinner at night. Yes That was very fast way to lose weight. But when I stop running and eat food regularly, I came back to fat... It kills me and I never want to lose big weight again. And honestly, I lose weight for chasing a girl, not count a chasing but I was refused by my big weight and my big face, haha,,, Even I lost my weight I never got a like from a girl no matter if she is the one I show love for. But I did get 2 girls' like when I was in University first year. But I didn't keep that a long way and my life mess up then I was back to big weight again. I don't know. Maybe I should live a normal life. My motivation here now is very low, but I think I should do something but after work there is short time for me to lift or no environment for me ,, I know this is an excuse but I also like to see many bodybuilders they told the knowledge about energy intake and lifts and something about that.. Maybe I have less weight, more girls will come to me.. But the old memories haunting in my mind, I dislike to do running everyday! And what can I do then to lose weight? hahah THanks you warmly welcomes guys.
It is actually pretty simple.

Lift weights as often and intensely as your body will recover. This is different for everyone and different per muscle group. It will really depend on your genetics, diet, sleep and activity outside the gym.

Stick to clean, whole foods. If you cannot kill it, grow it or pick it, don't eat it. Try to choose the leanest meat options available. Figure out what your daily maintenance requirements are for calories and subtract 500 if you want to lose fat and add 500 if you want to gain muscle. Ensure you get 1 gram of protein per kg of lean bodyweight and 50-65 grams of fat per day. Make adjustments with carbohydrates. That is about as much information as I am giving out for free. Haha.

Thanks so much! I feel that you are very professional. I just got a body check that I am 180cm and 95kg now. According to what you suggest, if I want to lose 15kg, do I need to subtract 500 calories get 15g protein and 50-65g fat? I can not see if I can eat enough if I go this way diat....

Neil, I do not know as much as Genetic Freak does, but I think you might be doing the math wrong.
If you weigh 95kg now, and your goal is 80kg, then maybe, your "lean bodyweight" would be 80kg.

I am pretty sure his advice would be to then get 80 grams of protein per day just to maintain the muscle you currently have within your 95kg body ... NOT the 15g protein per day you seem(?) to be suggesting. Keep the 50-65g of fat per day and make adjustments with carbohydrates as you diet down from 95kg to 80kg.
