You may know based on your blood protein level.  But - that is not a real good indicater sinc ethe body will start pulling the proteins out of your muscles as needed.
So my guess will be the mussce mass + blood test for proetins, and then the kidney function.

I know that i am now on 120-150 gr of proteins a day and my blood proeton level is low normal. But then - I am on a low carb diet - due to RH so my body uses the proteins for fuel. (not good for the kidneys)

You know the whole question I was thinking...Does the regain happen because there is less protein malabsorption?
How do we know that?

We regain because our bodies have figured out the whole calorie thing, not the vitamin, nutrition thing, just the calorie thing :(.
