Tried #CaloricRestriction, one 400-kcal meal/day:
+ no electrolytes or supplements
+ temporarily satisfies food craving
+ body not cold
- easy to overeat
- hard to track weight progress since not eating enough to excrete daily
- still high food craving
- lower anti-aging benefits (autophagy, HGH)
Also in @sciencemagazine this week: Giuseppe Matarese pens a Perspective on the link between #obesity and #autoimmunity!

After a few months of playing with a diet high in protein (for muscle protein synthesis) and #CaloricRestriction (for fat loss), today marks a return back to #AlternateDayFasting, which I've found works extremely well for me for driving fat loss.
The x-factor in this is whether I can also continue to push muscle growth, or whether the best I can hope for is to just maintain lean body mass while losing fat. My strategy is to shift resistance training and anaerobic cardio to fed days.
