I did barbell squats for the first time in YEARS yesterday. And I felt immediately AMAZING.
The gym I joined is pretty awesome. It has a bunch of levels. One level is designed for me – the heavy lift stuff and treadmill. The other floors are less useful but still fine. Now I understand this place. Its so close.
What am I currently focussed on:

Starting strength is a good idea.

Barbell squat, reps 18 to 25 are like the last few miles of a marathon
Ok, let’s do something that I have not done before. Explicitly focus on protein.
In April of 2012 (twelve years ago) I read Protein Power. I just came back to this book and it fucking has everything in it. I am going to reread my copy of it. This will be a fresh perspective on this old wisdom that the doctor at my old company gave me. Wow.
I am protein starved.
Quick snack in morning
Siggi + ratio keto ~ 50 grams
Nugo + Slate milk ~ 34 grams (or with two Nugo / Milk it will be 50 gram)

Some how to get 50 grams but for less than 500 calories.

Even a small slip up can push your fat loss forward by two days.
Hunger management.

Here are the 12 fat burning tips in short bullets summarized from the video:
Use animal proteins moderately. The amount should be around the size of your palm for females and twice that amount for males.
Keep carbs low, below 50 grams. Consume leafy greens instead which are loaded with fiber.
Don't eat unless you are hungry. Listen to your body and avoid unnecessary snacking.
Exercise throughout the day. Take breaks and go for walks.
Avoid all grains, not just gluten-free ones. Grains create inflammation in your gut.
Do not keep junk food in the house. Avoid temptation by not having it readily available.
Avoid locations that will tempt you to eat junk food, such as restaurants and social events.
Avoid processed or packaged food. Opt for fresh food instead.
Cold therapy: Take cold showers or spend more time outdoors in winter to activate brown fat and burn more calories.
Take adaptogens such as ashwagandha, B1, and Vitamin D to reduce stress.
Avoid glyphosate, a chemical found in Roundup Ready GMO foods. It affects your gut microbes and can lead to weight gain.
Drink apple cider vinegar to help with blood sugar and insulin resistance.
