the room is quite firm about eating enough and i think that is the best thing about this channel

i cook normally and freeze it in small pots. the food is unchanged, the portion is the only difference

1.6 per kg

how do you get 30 grams of protein into a breakfast you can actually finish

front load 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

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

eat more please

alcohol hits me twice as hard now, has anyone else had that

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

im eating maybe 700 calories a day without trying and i know thats wrong, where do i start

two sessions a week

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

small portions six times a day is how i get to 130 grams on a bad week

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

update from 15 months ago: fixed my protein, the fatigue lifted, and i cannot prove those two are connected, ymmv
greek yoghurt, cottage cheese, whey in milk. that is most of my protein and none of it needs chewing

add salt

how many grams of protein are people actually hitting at 80kg

anyone tracked their protein properly for a week and been shocked by the number

bioimpedance scales are a mood ring. they track how hydrated you are more than anything about fat
