Been at a desk for 20-years, now at physical labor. Recently figured out that I’m running a serious caloric deficit, and I’m already a skinny fucker. Also, I’m aiming to build a little muscle and a lot of endurance. How do I eat?!
Back when I was working hard, ate tons of fast food. Too expensive and time consuming, don’t want off the clock to go eat (hour round trip including eating). Took a 12-hour shift today and did OK sucking down granola bars, water and kratom, ate my wife’s kickass meal when I got home.
What can I cook or bring to work to power me? What’s simple and cheap and doesn’t require much on-site prep? (We have a microwave, toaster, all that, I just want calories and protein in my face with no fuss). Afraid I’m half-ass cannibalizing myself.
Really interesting concept, could you point me towards somewhere I could further research this?

Damned interesting! Way too complex to boil down into meme format, but the idea does make sense.
What I’m wondering; If we adjust our metabolism for fewer calories, what are we sacrificing in return? LOL, too tired to dig deep on this ATM. Apparently I need more calories.
Cool, thanks
