genuinely, eat more. nobody here will congratulate you for 700 calories and we have all watched somebody get hurt by it

Highlights from this day
- taper_tess — liquid protein was the thing that fixed this for me. a shake is food, it is not a shortcut family meals i put a small amount on the plate and nobody comments anymore.… 22:56
- underfill_uma — i weigh my protein sources for a week every few months to recalibrate, because the estimates drift badly, for what its worth 23:25
- VialBot — Channel stats, last 30 days: 35 messages from 38 members. 23:30
- brisbane_bac — sorry to jump in creatine has nothing to do with any of this and i still take it. five grams, cheap, well studied 23:50
did anyone get body composition measured before and after
slightly off topic but update from 26 months ago: fixed my protein, the fatigue lifted, and i cannot prove those two are connected
liquid protein was the thing that fixed this for me. a shake is food, it is not a shortcut
family meals i put a small amount on the plate and nobody comments anymore. that took about a year

is cold food easier for anyone else or is that just me
quick one i cook normally and freeze it in small pots. the food is unchanged, the portion is the only difference
*VendorInvestigate not the other one
30 a sitting

drink it if you cant eat it
small portions six times a day is how i get to 130 grams on a bad week
update on the earlier thing im lifting and losing and i cant tell if im getting weaker or just lighter
the room is quite firm about eating enough and i think that is the best thing about this channel
follow up anyone tracked their protein properly for a week and been shocked by the number
i front load protein. 40 grams at breakfast because by the evening i cannot face any of it

cold food is easier
does the room think about protein per meal or per day
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
*Medutest not the other one
coffee on an empty stomach with slowed gastric emptying is a rough combination. i eat something first now, i could be wrong
i weigh my protein sources for a week every few months to recalibrate, because the estimates drift badly, for what its worth

protein per meal matters more than per day once you are eating tiny amounts. i aim for 30 grams a sitting

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

the calorie floor question is the right one to ask. i would not go under 1200 without somebody keeping an eye on me
i stopped counting calories and started counting protein, and one number is much easier than two
sorry to jump in creatine has nothing to do with any of this and i still take it. five grams, cheap, well studied
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 problembioimpedance is a mood ring
