prep in portions a third of the size you think you need. big containers go in the bin uneaten

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

anyone tracked their protein properly for a week and been shocked by the number

1.6 grams per kg is the number most of us landed on. at 80kg that is 128 grams a day

is a protein shake cheating or is it just food

liquid protein was the thing that fixed this for me. a shake is food, it is not a shortcut, ask me again in a month

the room is quite firm about eating enough and i think that is the best thing about this channel

TT

you will feel weaker while losing. whether you actually are is a different question and only numbers answer it

ok so fibre from food first, psyllium if food is not doing it. i went straight to the sachets and regretted it

TT

i was wrong about protein for a year. i thought losing my appetite meant i should eat less. it does not

for the archive cold food is easier. i eat a lot of things at fridge temperature now and i cannot explain why that helps

the risk with fast loss is lean mass, and the two things that touch it are protein and resistance work

slightly off topic but greek yoghurt, cottage cheese, whey in milk. that is most of my protein and none of it needs chewing

TT

slightly off topic but dexa or the bathroom bioimpedance thing, is the cheap one worth anything at all

coming back to this im eating maybe 700 calories a day without trying and i know thats wrong, where do i start
