alcohol hitting harder is one of the most consistent reports in this channel. two drinks feels like five, ill dig out the number
prep in portions a third of the size you think you need. big containers go in the bin uneaten
family meals i put a small amount on the plate and nobody comments anymore. that took about a year
update from 14 months ago: fixed my protein, the fatigue lifted, and i cannot prove those two are connected
eat more please
greek yoghurt
meal prep that survives early satiety, what actually works
coffee on an empty stomach is making me feel awful, is that the drug or is that just coffee
i lost 13 and about a fifth of it was lean by dexa, and that was with lifting the whole way through
does the room think about protein per meal or per day
160 grams a day sounds enormous until you notice a chicken breast is 30 and a shake is 25
two proper resistance sessions a week is what the room settled on. three if you can manage it
dexa if you can
Digest for the week of 2025-09-29 has been published.
coming back after 21 months, what did people change about food that stuck
bioimpedance scales are a mood ring. they track how hydrated you are more than anything about fat, ymmv
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
front load it
do i need creatine or is that a completely different hobby
the calorie floor question is the right one to ask. i would not go under 1200 without somebody keeping an eye on me
update from 25 months ago: fixed my protein, the fatigue lifted, and i cannot prove those two are connected
fibre from food
30 a sitting
electrolytes, is that just salt in water or do i need the sachets
i lift three times a week and my lifts dropped about ten percent while losing, then came back up
coffee on an empty stomach with slowed gastric emptying is a rough combination. i eat something first now
1.6 grams per kg is the number most of us landed on. at 80kg that is 128 grams a day
thats too few calories
unrelated but greek yoghurt, cottage cheese, whey in milk. that is most of my protein and none of it needs chewing
how do you handle a family meal when you can eat a third of whats on the plate
whats a realistic calorie floor before it becomes an actual problem
[edited]what did people try for constipation food wise before reaching for pills
resistance training is not optional if you care what you look like at the end of this. my opinion, held strongly
you will feel weaker while losing. whether you actually are is a different question and only numbers answer it
anyone tracked their protein properly for a week and been shocked by the number
if you are at 700 calories a day that is the thing to fix before anything else. please eat more, for what its worth
sorry to jump in a tin of tuna, a pot of yoghurt and a shake is 60 grams and about four minutes of work
1.6 per kg
did anyone get body composition measured before and after
i front load protein. 40 grams at breakfast because by the evening i cannot face any of it
*PeptideMeter not the other one
