Flushing the Rebound, Dropping Carbs & MOTS-c Reality | Week 36 Check-In

I stepped on the scale and weighed in at 233.0 lbs, dropping 4.8 lbs of the heavy water blanket I picked up after a 5 day fasting experiment. The adjustments worked perfectly. I pulled the carbohydrates, shifted back to a high-protein, higher-fat keto-style meal plan, and my body immediately released the subcutaneous water it was hoarding. We also officially crossed the 103 lbs lost milestone! Because I am getting closer to my target weight, I am actively stepping down my Retatrutide dosage (currently at 4mg) to eventually find my maintenance baseline. I also dive into my reality with MOTS-c, why I am shifting my injection timing so I don't blunt muscle growth, and my initial review of a $99 popup steam sauna I added to the recovery protocol. Finally, I give a huge shoutout to the AlphaMD clinical TRT protocol for keeping the energy and drive locked in while running this aggressive deficit, and update the Lab Partners on the upcoming Tesamorelin mass-spec test.
