Highlights from this day
  • tyne_tracks — i weigh my protein sources for a week every few months to recalibrate, because the estimates drift badly 20:42
  • tyne_tracks — i cook normally and freeze it in small pots. the food is unchanged, the portion is the only difference 21:21
  • surpass_two — update on the earlier thing coming back after 12 months, what did people change about food that stuck 22:05
  • tyne_tracks — is greek yoghurt actually as good as everyone in here says 22:09

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

Verification log updated: QSC — evidence added, status unchanged.

ST

coming back to this how do you get 30 grams of protein into a breakfast you can actually finish

whats a realistic calorie floor before it becomes an actual problem

TT

update on the earlier thing family meals i put a small amount on the plate and nobody comments anymore. that took about a year, for what its worth

ST

if you are at 700 calories a day that is the thing to fix before anything else. please eat more, i have it written down somewhere

TT

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

TT

i cook normally and freeze it in small pots. the food is unchanged, the portion is the only difference

target weight 75kg
1.6 g/kg  = 120 g/day
1.8 g/kg  = 135 g/day
spread over 4 feeds = 30-34 g each
which with no appetite is the actual problem

*VendorInvestigate not the other one

bioimpedance is a mood ring

greek yoghurt, cottage cheese, whey in milk. that is most of my protein and none of it needs chewing, for what its worth

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

TT

creatine has nothing to do with any of this and i still take it. five grams, cheap, well studied

TT

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

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

TT

at 90kg and 1.6 per kg you are looking at 144 grams. i have never once hit it on a bad appetite week

160 grams a day sounds enormous until you notice a chicken breast is 30 and a shake is 25

coming back to this electrolytes, is that just salt in water or do i need the sachets

DT

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

thats too few calories

MP

nobody here is your dietitian. we can tell you what we eat and what happened afterwards

DT

electrolytes made a real difference to my headaches, and a pinch of salt in water goes a long way before you buy anything
