Highlights from this day
- surpass_two — anyone tracked their protein properly for a week and been shocked by the number 17:05
- hydrate_hana — cold food is easier. i eat a lot of things at fridge temperature now and i cannot explain why that helps the room is quite firm about eating enough and i think that… 17:42
- hydrate_hana — nobody here is your dietitian. we can tell you what we eat and what happened afterwards 17:44
- no_chargeback — meal prep that survives early satiety, what actually works protein per meal matters more than per day once you are eating tiny amounts. i aim for 30 grams a sitting 17:45
- two_ml_two — sarcopenia at my age, is that a real risk if im losing 34 in 5 months i front load protein. 40 grams at breakfast because by the evening i cannot face any of it 18:11
i stopped counting calories and started counting protein, and one number is much easier than two
[edited]dexa or the bathroom bioimpedance thing, is the cheap one worth anything at all
how do you hit protein when literally nothing is appealing
anyone tracked their protein properly for a week and been shocked by the number
| Target weight | 1.6 g/kg | 1.8 g/kg |
|---|---|---|
| 60 kg | 96 g | 108 g |
| 70 kg | 112 g | 126 g |
| 80 kg | 128 g | 144 g |
| 90 kg | 144 g | 162 g |
| 100 kg | 160 g | 180 g |
genuinely, eat more. nobody here will congratulate you for 700 calories and we have all watched somebody get hurt by it
is 1.6 grams per kg the number everyone uses or did we make that up
creatine has nothing to do with any of this and i still take it. five grams, cheap, well studied
sorry to jump in two proper resistance sessions a week is what the room settled on. three if you can manage it
resistance training is not optional if you care what you look like at the end of this. my opinion, held strongly
1.6 per kg
dexa twice a year if you can afford it. the cheap scale will tell you a new story every day and none of them are true
cold food is easier. i eat a lot of things at fridge temperature now and i cannot explain why that helps
the room is quite firm about eating enough and i think that is the best thing about this channel
fibre from food

prep in portions a third of the size you think you need. big containers go in the bin uneaten
i lift three times a week and my lifts dropped about ten percent while losing, then came back up
sorry to jump in liquid protein was the thing that fixed this for me. a shake is food, it is not a shortcut
front load it
sarcopenia at my age, is that a real risk if im losing 34 in 5 months
i front load protein. 40 grams at breakfast because by the evening i cannot face any of it
smaller containers

i front load protein. 40 grams at breakfast because by the evening i cannot face any of it
cold food is easier
at 90kg and 1.6 per kg you are looking at 144 grams. i have never once hit it on a bad appetite week
add salt
resistance training twice a week, is that enough to hold lean mass
coffee on an empty stomach is making me feel awful, is that the drug or is that just coffee
coming back after 26 months, what did people change about food that stuck
protein first
is cold food easier for anyone else or is that just me
i cook normally and freeze it in small pots. the food is unchanged, the portion is the only difference, anyway
please dont go lower
bioimpedance is a mood ring
the risk with fast loss is lean mass, and the two things that touch it are protein and resistance work
how do you get 30 grams of protein into a breakfast you can actually finish
