[quote=Anonymous]I’m over 50 and rejiggered my diet and exercise after the pandemic (during which I had started drinking too much wine and eating too much sugar, with predictable and depressing results). So it’s been a long journey. I don’t calculate protein or calories. I have built muscle (and lost a lot of fat) through Pilates and walking. I try to eat more protein but maybe just an egg a day and sometimes chicken, tuna, or cheese. No supplements. Cut out most of the sugar and wine. I’m not bulky, but definitely have defined muscle and am much stronger. This is obviously anecdotal but you don’t have to eat that much protein, which as another poster observed, is very hard on your kidneys. [/quote]
