[QUOTE="Mbaker, post: 2373686, member: 256617"] As you are lean, why not consider balancing out the energy incrementally, maybe take the protein down to 135 again which is close to the 1g per pound of body weight Ted Naiman recommends, and filling out the gap with quality fat and or low gi carbs, to hold onto muscle lift heavy. I would then ask for at least 2 tests 3 months apart at your surgery Maybe for oldies like me the range is different for eGFR, but I can't find the reference, but do know eating alot of meat makes this not as reliable due to another measurement (again can't remember which changes the estimate); this is why cystatin-C if available is a better test in this context (I can reference Dr Shawn Baker on this point). I use eGFR to more so measure variance so my last 3 have been 68, 69 and 67, which considering pummelling meat, fish and dairy I am happy with. You look alot younger than me, so perhaps er on the side of caution, and pull back from the 1.44 g per pound of bodyweight, as this is close to the 1.6 some say is top end for body builders. I look at my kidney function before A1c as this you cannot mess around with too much. [/QUOTE]
