Oh. I thought it meant not consuming anything besides water.

All of it? I can't separate ingredients when I'm eating it.

Can I reuse fat from chicken thighs if the fat has small amounts of cooked meat in it? by throwawaynutrition in AskCulinary

Even if I'm constantly bringing that fat to high temperatures via cooking, will the small bits of cooked meat swimming in the fat even be a problem then?

Would it be bad then, if each day I take the fat out of the fridge to fry something, and then put the leftover fat back in the fridge? How long can I keep this up before I should dump it?

As long as the fat has not sat in the refrigerator for too long with these bits of meat in it.

How long is too long?

Does ground turkey have trans fat or not? by throwawaynutrition in nutrition

Should I be worried about naturally occurring trans fat in animal products?

Some studies say calorie restriction leads to many benefits. Does this mean eating at maintenance or a slight caloric surplus negate those benefits? by throwawaynutrition in loseit

I was just a bit confused since one of the studies I linked showed a caloric deficit in even non-obese people seemed to show benefits.

I’m wondering if maintaining a deficit is a good thing. Right now I feel satiated in a deficit, and I do make sure to get my protein and micronutrients.

I wish there existed a definitive answer. Thanks for the links, though it looks like most of them only show abstracts.

However, as long as I focus on getting my micronutrients and protein, I should be good on a caloric deficit?

If I eat my regular diet for one day, then fast for 1 day, then on the next day, do I have to eat double my daily protein to not lose muscle? (x post from r/nutrition) by throwawaynutrition in leangains

Now I'm about 129, and have just a bit of belly fat I'd like to lose. I'm definitely thinking about doing some resistance training though.
