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

you will feel weaker while losing. whether you actually are is a different question and only numbers answer it
[edited]1.6 per kg
bioimpedance scales are a mood ring. they track how hydrated you are more than anything about fat
fibre from food
protein per meal matters more than per day once you are eating tiny amounts. i aim for 30 grams a sitting
protein first
slightly off topic but genuinely, eat more. nobody here will congratulate you for 700 calories and we have all watched somebody get hurt by it
how do you handle a family meal when you can eat a third of whats on the plate
alcohol hits me twice as hard now, has anyone else had that
two proper resistance sessions a week is what the room settled on. three if you can manage it, still working it out
is 1.6 grams per kg the number everyone uses or did we make that up
[edited]30 a sitting
i weigh my protein sources for a week every few months to recalibrate, because the estimates drift badly, i have it written down somewhere
eat more please

slightly off topic but is greek yoghurt actually as good as everyone in here says
how much lean mass did people lose and how did they even know
Inter-lab diff for lot B-0329: 99% vs 98.1%. Within expected range.
for the archive at 90kg and 1.6 per kg you are looking at 144 grams. i have never once hit it on a bad appetite week
thats too few calories
alcohol hitting harder is one of the most consistent reports in this channel. two drinks feels like five
1.6 grams per kg is the number most of us landed on. at 80kg that is 128 grams a day, your mileage will differ
please dont go lower
update on the earlier thing how do you get 30 grams of protein into a breakfast you can actually finish
bioimpedance is a mood ring
electrolytes made a real difference to my headaches, and a pinch of salt in water goes a long way before you buy anything
smaller containers
fibre from food first, psyllium if food is not doing it. i went straight to the sachets and regretted it
the calorie floor question is the right one to ask. i would not go under 1200 without somebody keeping an eye on me
prep in portions a third of the size you think you need. big containers go in the bin uneaten, we shall see
i cook normally and freeze it in small pots. the food is unchanged, the portion is the only difference, for what its worth
[edited]electrolytes, is that just salt in water or do i need the sachets
if you are at 700 calories a day that is the thing to fix before anything else. please eat more
