- ivy_injects — how do you handle a family meal when you can eat a third of whats on the plate 11:39
- tokyo_taper — bioimpedance scales are a mood ring. they track how hydrated you are more than anything about fat, not advice obviously 12:15
- two_lifts_a_week — quick one electrolytes made a real difference to my headaches, and a pinch of salt in water goes a long way before you buy anything 14:16
- two_lifts_a_week — alcohol hitting harder is one of the most consistent reports in this channel. two drinks feels like five, ill dig out the number 14:43

update on the earlier thing i front load protein. 40 grams at breakfast because by the evening i cannot face any of it
im lifting and losing and i cant tell if im getting weaker or just lighter
greek yoghurt, cottage cheese, whey in milk. that is most of my protein and none of it needs chewing
*that should say weekly
is 1.6 grams per kg the number everyone uses or did we make that up
bioimpedance scales are a mood ring. they track how hydrated you are more than anything about fat, not advice obviously
nobody here is your dietitian. we can tell you what we eat and what happened afterwards
i weigh my protein sources for a week every few months to recalibrate, because the estimates drift badly
*PeptideMeter not the other one
1.6 per kg
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
coming back to this sarcopenia at my age, is that a real risk if im losing 14 in 12 months
a shake is food
follow up small portions six times a day is how i get to 130 grams on a bad week
dexa if you can
anyone tracked their protein properly for a week and been shocked by the number
quick one electrolytes made a real difference to my headaches, and a pinch of salt in water goes a long way before you buy anything
alcohol hitting harder is one of the most consistent reports in this channel. two drinks feels like five, ill dig out the number
electrolytes, is that just salt in water or do i need the sachets
i stopped counting calories and started counting protein, and one number is much easier than two
coming back after 6 months, what did people change about food that stuck
