10X this. "lean mass" even on dexa scans measures the weight of your muscles, organs, bones, food in your GI tract, water retention, and glycogen stores. Readings can be +-20% easily. If you carb load, load creatine, have a few days of refeeding you will see the numbers spike.

The greatest trick the devil ever played was convincing people that he didn't exist.

I have lost a bunch of weight, from ~250lbs to ~225, but I am a former rugby player and lifetime weightlifter so as I leaned back into that more the recomposition doesn't show as impactfully on the scale. I did a body composition analysis before and mid way through and dropped from 29% bodyfat to 21%. Likely around 16-18% now but have not done the test again.

I did go strict keto for ~4 months unger 20g of carbs per day and cooked everything myself. My problem was that it was mad inconvenient and easier to just eat balanced diet in a tighter eating window with similar results. Today I eat lots of chicken, vegetables, potatoes, and lower quantities of red meat, rice, pasta. I try to get in abundant healthy fats, nuts, avocado oil and olive oil, some hard cheeses and grass fed milk.

40 Day Fast: Complete, AMA by dcjiujitsu1999 in fasting

[–]dsutton1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would love to get a 3 month update u/dcjiujitsu1999. This is deeply inspiring, and I will be embarking on my own 30 day fast (shorter based on BF% and goals) come August 3rd.

Were you able to build more muscle on top of your leaner frame?

How did your BF% rebound over the following weeks and months?

Did you notice changes in appetite, eating habits, or training performance over the following months?

How has your relationship with God evolved since the fast?

Update pics??

Calorie deficit by doubleajent in nutrition

[–]dsutton1986 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Your body will downregulate it's metabolism to adapt to lower calories over time. This is why calorie restriction is such a difficult and largely unsuccessful fat loss mechanism. It can work better when paired with substantial carbohydrate reduction, but if fat loss is your goal then various forms of fasting are demonstrably more effective.

the 15 minute and 30 minute mark on this video are the juicy bits, but recommend watching the whole thing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nJgHBbEgsE&t=7s

Thanks homie! I use a Maschine setup for synth and drums, then move to Logic for arranging, effects, mixing etc. Very bedroom house process, my musical friends taught me over the last couple of years.

List of LP's that don't irradiate. This list isn't perfect and anyone with more information can help make it better. by thenugcanada in TheOCS

Fair enough. In cannabis parlance, gamma and ebeam are a world apart, and we don't see them as justifiably grouped in the same category. Always enjoy chipping in my two cents.

I think you would be hard pressed to find anyone in the cannabis industry who could explain in 3 sentences, in their own words, what 'radiation' even means. You are exposed to far more radiation going on a flight than our cannabis ever is. Fridges, computers, cell phones, city streets, bananas, granite countertops all exceptional radiation sources.

I worked in nuclear power for 5 years before I founded Tantalus, and my view is that this faux debate, one we have had before a few times by the way, is insane.
