- lisbon_lot — two proper resistance sessions a week is what the room settled on. three if you can manage it 19:38
quick one nobody here is your dietitian. we can tell you what we eat and what happened afterwards
if you cannot eat it, drink it. that is the whole trick and it took me far too long to work out
Verification log updated: SGN — evidence added, status unchanged.
coming back to this how much lean mass did people lose and how did they even know
slightly off topic but bioimpedance scales are a mood ring. they track how hydrated you are more than anything about fat
genuinely, eat more. nobody here will congratulate you for 700 calories and we have all watched somebody get hurt by it, anyway

is cold food easier for anyone else or is that just me
front load it
1.6 per kg
greek yoghurt
protein first
update from 14 months ago: fixed my protein, the fatigue lifted, and i cannot prove those two are connected
[edited]you will feel weaker while losing. whether you actually are is a different question and only numbers answer it
cold food is easier. i eat a lot of things at fridge temperature now and i cannot explain why that helps
does the room think about protein per meal or per day
right so is a protein shake cheating or is it just food
sarcopenia at my age, is that a real risk if im losing 12 in 24 months

update on the earlier thing greek yoghurt, cottage cheese, whey in milk. that is most of my protein and none of it needs chewing
eat more please
quick one coffee on an empty stomach is making me feel awful, is that the drug or is that just coffee
i lost 24 and about a fifth of it was lean by dexa, and that was with lifting the whole way through
*PeptideMeter not the other one

i cook normally and freeze it in small pots. the food is unchanged, the portion is the only difference, ill dig out the number
at 90kg and 1.6 per kg you are looking at 144 grams. i have never once hit it on a bad appetite week
prep in portions a third of the size you think you need. big containers go in the bin uneaten
drink it if you cant eat it
follow up dexa or the bathroom bioimpedance thing, is the cheap one worth anything at all
anyone tracked their protein properly for a week and been shocked by the number
a tin of tuna, a pot of yoghurt and a shake is 60 grams and about four minutes of work
im lifting and losing and i cant tell if im getting weaker or just lighter
fibre from food first, psyllium if food is not doing it. i went straight to the sachets and regretted it, ymmv
