Highlights from this day
  • one_data_point — while im here i stopped counting calories and started counting protein, and one number is much easier than two 20:48
  • coa_or_cope — the calorie floor question is the right one to ask. i would not go under 1200 without somebody keeping an eye on me 21:04
  • half_life_hal — quick one resistance training is not optional if you care what you look like at the end of this. my opinion, held strongly 22:11
  • coa_or_cope — how do you handle a family meal when you can eat a third of whats on the plate 22:17

if you cannot eat it, drink it. that is the whole trick and it took me far too long to work out

coffee on an empty stomach is making me feel awful, is that the drug or is that just coffee

i front load protein. 40 grams at breakfast because by the evening i cannot face any of it

the calorie floor question is the right one to ask. i would not go under 1200 without somebody keeping an eye on me

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

a shake is food

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

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

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

TT

what did people try for constipation food wise before reaching for pills

quick one resistance training is not optional if you care what you look like at the end of this. my opinion, held strongly

two proper resistance sessions a week is what the room settled on. three if you can manage it

how do you handle a family meal when you can eat a third of whats on the plate
