bro, that preventing cortisol thing you mentioned is really far off, so far off that I'd take up all the board space and memory in response to that.

Can't get protein powder? Why? Solid food choices are great, yes, but
protein powder has it's place.

Cereal in any diet to lose weight/fat/whatever has no place in your daily diet. Sorry, there's not much more I can say here bro, I know u had asked for my thoughts. Well, there they are, and I have a lot more too, but it seems as if you are set in your ways already, and there is not much you can do to alter your plan. All my suggestions would then go by the wayside, and it would be a waste of my time and yours.

Good luck! I have programs I gotta make!
