  • How did you come to the 1 g protein per pound LM? Trial and error, or a source? I like the idea of tracking in detail, but the detail of the tracking gets me lost (not sure what to track for those macros - how much of each to at least maintain. Maybe I do forget the weight loss component, find some macro guidance and…
  • Ok - I really think I need to focus on training, and not the weight. Numbers have always screwed me up, so maybe a better attitude about myself will help the process.
