#mealplanning — Public Fediverse posts

I planned out some meals for this week: enfrijoladas, chili con carne, and a cream of something pasta dish thing (not sure what, but I'm leaning towards chicken and broccoli BUT I can also just make stroganoff). So I started soaking beans and shall feed the sourdough starter (poor thing was put in the fridge this past week because I didn't have time for ANYTHING). I do have homemade egg noodles that need to be used, so either the pasta dish idea or something else.

🥗 Meal Frequency and Metabolism 🔥

Meal frequency is important for meal planning and metabolism management because it can influence muscle growth, energy balance, and overall performance.

⚡️ Meal Frequency and Energy Balance

🍗 Muscle Protein Synthesis (MPS)

🎛️ Appetite Control and Satiety

🔥 Impact on Metabolic Rate

In reference to the post from earlier today where I discussed my silly food experiment, I have finished my lunch. I had a little bit of chicken, a protein cookie, a little sugar free chocolate, and a handful of Ritz crackers. No peanuts for me.

Now we wait and see how I feel this afternoon including if my stomach requires me to eat on the drive home, and how I feel when it’s time for dinner, probably around 6:45-7:00pm. Will there be gassy pain in my stomach like there often is when I work in the office and have peanuts with my lunch? Or will I be pain and discomfort (and brutal, violent farts) free (please excuse the TMI, but I included it for the benefit of scientific research, you understand)?

In other health-ish news, I used my CPAP machine again last night. It went well. No issues. More importantly, the SleepWatch app on my Apple Watch tells me that the ratio of restful sleep vs light sleep increased. Yesterday it was 67% restful, which wasn’t bad, I don’t think, but today it was 79% which is pretty wonderful. I like seeing that number in the 70’s, but when it pushes 80 it’s extra special. It had my sleeping heart rate dip at 21% too. Anything above 20% is excellent. Unfortunately, I failed to get six hours of sleep in total (only by a few minutes though) and the older I get the less functional I am when the total is less than six hours. Oh well.

So as far as medical experiments go, we need to see how my stomach feels by the time dinner rolls around, 4-5 hours from now, and how tonight’s sleep goes. There is just so much data to collect. The statistics nerd typing this post is giddy with antici…
