Protein targets in grams per kilogram, resistance training as the thing that decides how much of the loss is fat, fibre and electrolytes, meal prep that survives early satiety, alcohol hitting differently, and the recurring problem of members accidentally eating far too little.
Pinned in this channel
Protein floor: aim for around 1.6g per kg of target body weight, and two resistance sessions a week minimum. This is the difference between losing weight and losing yourself.
If you are under 1,000 calories by accident, that is not discipline, it is a problem. Say so here and somebody will help you build meals that fit in a small appetite.
