slightly off topic but i stopped counting calories and started counting protein, and one number is much easier than two

if you are at 700 calories a day that is the thing to fix before anything else. please eat more
i front load protein. 40 grams at breakfast because by the evening i cannot face any of it

two proper resistance sessions a week is what the room settled on. three if you can manage it
a tin of tuna, a pot of yoghurt and a shake is 60 grams and about four minutes of work, ymmv
drink it if you cant eat it
greek yoghurt
creatine has nothing to do with any of this and i still take it. five grams, cheap, well studied, not advice obviously
fibre from food first, psyllium if food is not doing it. i went straight to the sachets and regretted it
front load it
two sessions a week
1.6 per kg
i was wrong about protein for a year. i thought losing my appetite meant i should eat less. it does not
the risk with fast loss is lean mass, and the two things that touch it are protein and resistance work
the calorie floor question is the right one to ask. i would not go under 1200 without somebody keeping an eye on me
quick one dexa or the bathroom bioimpedance thing, is the cheap one worth anything at all
update from 20 months ago: fixed my protein, the fatigue lifted, and i cannot prove those two are connected, someone check my working
thats too few calories
