Highlights from this day
- gorse_gains — is greek yoghurt actually as good as everyone in here says 18:18
- VialBot — New independent result logged — TFC, lot SG-1177, purity 96.8% (VendorInvestigate). 18:19
- no_appetite_nia — 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 18:58
- no_appetite_nia — cold food is easier. i eat a lot of things at fridge temperature now and i cannot explain why that helps 1.6 grams per kg is the number most of us landed on. at 80kg… 19:25
- hydrate_hana — liquid protein was the thing that fixed this for me. a shake is food, it is not a shortcut 20:09

fibre from food

i lost 47 and about a fifth of it was lean by dexa, and that was with lifting the whole way through
what did people try for constipation food wise before reaching for pills
small portions six times a day is how i get to 130 grams on a bad week
while im here the room is quite firm about eating enough and i think that is the best thing about this channel
coming back after 6 months, what did people change about food that stuck
i weigh my protein sources for a week every few months to recalibrate, because the estimates drift badly
while im here fibre from food first, psyllium if food is not doing it. i went straight to the sachets and regretted it
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

sarcopenia at my age, is that a real risk if im losing 19 in 7 months
bioimpedance is a mood ring
cold food is easier. i eat a lot of things at fridge temperature now and i cannot explain why that helps
1.6 grams per kg is the number most of us landed on. at 80kg that is 128 grams a day
im eating maybe 700 calories a day without trying and i know thats wrong, where do i start
liquid protein was the thing that fixed this for me. a shake is food, it is not a shortcut
