  • High protein diets have been demonstrated to be superior to isocaloric, low-protein diets in body fat loss and lean body mass retention so let's make sure you are consuming enough protein in your diet! So many of us have trouble getting in enough protein and I wanted to give you some of the best ways to include more sources of protein in your diet. These 5 sources are things I thought everyone might have access to and also they help us keep it simple for anyone trying to get back on track or stay consistent with great eating habits to help you reach your goals!
    Protein is the building block of our lean body mass so consuming enough not only helps your maintain the muscle you have if you are trying to lose body fat but it also helps you build muscle if you are looking to get stronger or add lean body mass to your body!
    Protein also has the highest thermic effect of food, meaning it requires to most calories to digest out of protein, carbs, and fats. There are many jobs in the body that require protein as well that we don't think about like cellular signals, transporting cells, tissue turnover, tissue repair, and some hormonal involvement!
    Some additional tips for protein consumption:
    1. Increase the serving size to give you 20-30grams per meal or snack
    2. Have a good variety of protein sources on hand at home so you can make simple meals easily
    3. Pack protein filled snacks with when you are commuting or eating at work to keep yourself full between meals.

Now that I know Ghost has a vegan option I will give it a try!

Thank you for the phenomenal person you are and for coming into my life and helping me transform myself into the person I have always wanted to be!!!
