    @rashmii Keep in mind, I am diabetic. I'm trying to keep my carbs on the low end, not keto diet low, though. Maybe 50 to 60g a day if possible. The other limiting factor is the cost of food.

    @kaiisbae I appreciate your advice!. It'll be difficult to address all your points, but here goes nothing: I'm eating around 8 ounces of protein or more. Meat is one thing I have no problem eating a lot of, lol! I agree, and I can attest that low of caloric intake has affected my workouts. This...
