Huh.. interesting!

Well, I have anxiety problems (hence Propranolol) so I can't really just not stress out.

I did manage to sleep in the end, but I called 111, a free NHS line for emergencies that might not fit the 999 thing. I spoke to a couple of people and have an out of hours appointment for today, 3pm.

I've never thought of the fasting with Propranolol. That's a really good point, but I rarely take it... once every couple of days, perhaps. I will be sure not to use it while on fasting days, but I don't think I have, so far.

Yeah, my weight would be fantastic for back when I didn't have a great deal of muscle (not that I'm huge, but I have some muscle on me) and it was even my old max weight back when I quite skinny. Unfortunately, I still have a lot of body fat to get rid of... still overweight, really... well, overfat. xD On the bright side, it means I gained a fair bit of muscle compared to something like 5-6 years ago

I'd rather not bulk until I'm done lowering the body fat. I have a target in mind, and I've been working for it for 6-7 months. I'm thinking about 170lbs would be alright, then I'd probably start bulking.

Burning off fat typically can lose muscle, but it's all about minimizing the loss, by working out (resistance) and making sure to get enough protein; keeps the muscles alive and lessens the loss. If anything, while losing .. something like 41lbs now, I've still gained muscle. The gains have slowed down since I quit trying to bulk and lose weight at the same time.. it's not practical, so I'm focusing on one then the other. I'm accepting (finally) of losing some muscle if it means losing body fat and I'm sure I'll gain it all back, and some, when I start bulking.

Oh, and yep, Propranolol is a beta-blocker. I don't have heart issues (that I know of) so it's purely for my anxiety.

I appreciate the reply.
