    There was a time when it was thought that there was a finite window of opportunity to re-feed protein – thought to be about 20-30 minutes or your muscles would basically eat themselves.

    Here's the harsh truth. I don't like it, but it is what it is.

    You can lose fat, gain muscle and put on weight - but not on a calorie deficit.

    At your reduced weight, you may want to...

    I have found that there is a slight distinction between hunger and cravings. If this is a craving - knock out some push-ups, or go for a very short walk - 5-10 minutes. That will be enough to get...

    This is a tough question because sometimes, hunger can be confused with craving, or even thirst.

    Since you shared you were overweight, my guess is that with a calorie deficit, your body/brain is...

    It all depends.

    Helpful, right?

    If I were you, I'd look at what I was eating the rest of the day. For example: My caloric intake will vary from 1750 to 2000. Some days, I'm burning 3200,...

    I could be wrong, won't be the first time.

    But - I would question any and every source of information on calorie values.
