Thank you. Helps confirm whether I’m on the right track. But the picture of the egg on the avocado sandwich on the display photo of this video, with two red Xs and the words “Dont Do This” scared me and was misleading. Egg and avocado are two things I often have together on a piece of sourdough bread 😂 Relieved to know that’s not one of the protein mistakes. Perhaps the illustration was not meant to be taken so literally but more accurate illustration would serve better for viewers. Just my humble opinion 🙏🏽❤️

Eating protein for breakfast literally changed my life ❤️ I have more energy throughout the whole day. I do make sure to get about 5 oz of meat/chicken at lunch and something in the evening.
Good content. I am surprised at how us older folks are ignored in the guidelines. At 77 yo, I try to get 1.5 g per kg, and find I can make it with eggs, meat, and protein powder. No sugar, low carbs, and lots of protein and fat.
My go to fast protein snack is hard boiled eggs. Very easy to carry at work or when traveling. I boil eggs every three days and keep them in the fridge. It can also work for a quick addition to my salad.
I have an EGG & Avacodo Breakfast every morning before work. I started at 185 in a down to 163 in 5 months. I am 61 when I started this & this meal will boost your energy level up!!!
My Mom was diagnosed with osteoporosis. I started counting her protein. She wasn't even eating half of what she needed. So we upped the protein. We use Anthony Balduzzi plate method. We've been getting protein in more.
In regards to the information in this video: The worst mistake I ever made was reading the book “Skinny Bitch” years ago in my late twenties. It was a compelling book pushing all the reasons to eat Vegan. I lived that lifestyle for a while and gained so much weight because one of the things it pushed was that we do not need the amount of protein you are saying in this video we need. You can certainly eat healthy or unhealthy being vegan, but I ate very “healthy”. But following their instructions about protein ruined me. I was always fit and slim, and became overweight for years not knowing why.
good thing i read that book having a good nutrition base and seeing all the healthy vegan struggling with weight loss doesn't surprise me. i'm vegan and i consume as much protein i need
OMG I read that book when I was in my mid 30s. The book was funny and made sense at the time. But yeah, the older I got, I kept gaining weight. It toook me until my 40s to realize I needed more protein.
Canned sardines are high in DHA, high in protein, low in mercury, and very convenient. I use the Wild Planet sardines packed in extra virgin olive oil. For vegans, organic roasted seaweed snacks are high in protein and they taste good. Costco has good prices on both of these products.
I recently bought that exact brand of sardines, had never had sardines prior. It was....okay. lol I think I just need to get used to them. But I wanna eat them more often because I know they're super good for you- but those little spines just trigger my "ew I don't wanna eat that" reflex. I hate anything other than pure clean meat/flesh. xD

I always thought I ate low carb high protein. Then I started tracking and I was low protein high fat! Def important to track for a bit to see where you are and where you need to be. I find it so hard to get my required protein. I’m 5’10 200lbs and tend to under eat so it just feels so hard to get my needs met.

Potato protein?! I would be interested hear your thoughts on eating potatoes that have been cooked and then cooled, turning the starches in to resistant starches? If potatoes are high diaas then could this be a work around - or should they be avoided general?
thats such a small factor in potatoes, "resistant starches" my fucking god just eat meat and accept that the only protein worth buying and eating is animal based proteins and whoever says any different is trying to find a loophope to prove their irrelevant theories which will never affect how we digest food. I've been raised in a family with mediterranean diet and mostly italian diet,my father is a doctor who doesn't know shit about nutrition cause he always stayed lean but even my family who aren't informed about food know meat is the most expensive food out there cause it's the best for our body,my father prescribes whole raw bone marrow for kids with blood disorders and kids who have spleen problems and that shows how simple it is, theres a reason why meat is expensive and being plant based fixes nothing in this world besides it ruins your gastrointestinal system,even my grandmother from an italian background when she doesn't feel good (nausea,gas,stomach discomfort or constipation,diarrhea) etc... list goes on ,has her own "traditional" remedies which consists of bone marrow broth with salt only or meat stew with salt only, she drinks a whole pot of broth and doesn't eat all day long until next morning and still she eats either boiled meat with a glass of milk or yogurt,and she never had any weight issues,she eats pasta twice a day and bread with fig jam 5 times a week and she still is healthy considering shes nearly 70. resistant starches mean nothing cause insulin doesn't work in a selective way and if you dont believe me get a blood glycemia test in the morning 12 hr fasted and drink a cup of black coffe no sugar,test your blood glucose again and see it has spiked through the roof,insulin gets activated even with a simple glass of water so starches or no starches make no difference in the whole picture, just look at how italians eat and you'll understand, every type of bread or pasta we eat is combined with plenty of meat or seafood,or fresh dairy products and cheeses,we eat plenty of seasonal fruits and alot of pastries in the weekends,it's a balance that keeps people healthy,i eat a pizza every week or more often than that and im still too skinny i get told to gain weight,italian napolitan style pizza is so light that it's a meal worth of calories unlike american pizza which has a dense bready crust and some ugly ass ingredients as toppings,even breads are different cause we buy it fresh at the bakery every day cause the next day it's stale and hard,unlike american supermarket bread that is just "weird" cakey and not bready,just buy a baguette from a good bakery and see the difference compared to supermarket bread,a baguette or even ciabatta bread won't last more than a day after you've sliced it but supermarket bread lasts like a year,those types of weird foods are what's ruining our bodies and diet,it's weird when i see people like you ask moronic question as if potato starches would make a difference and somehow a potato could be a protein source , italians have a saying for potatoes, "potato is bread" meaning that if theres no other carbs in the house like pasta or bread there's potatoes to replace those carbs,just like we cook pastas we cook potatoes, lasagna with minced meat,cheese and tomato sauce can be done the same with potato mince meat and tomato sauce, thats how we look at potatoes as bread or pasta substitute ,if you think of getting protein from potatoes then you're really dumb or you're lying to yourself cause you're stuck on a vegan identity and you labeled yourself that so you got to live in such way to please your ego cause you're scared of ruining that image of yourself which you trusted even though it's failing (obvious by your question of potato protein and resistant starches being a game changer in how people like you eat), it's sad and you know it,if you're stubborn enough to refuse acknowledging how pathetic your question was then continue until you fail and fall back on your old eating habits,if you're conscious enough you'd understand there's no secret to eating and weight management aside from moderation and balance mixed with plenty of fresh seasonal foods and fresh animal products to keep your hormones and muscle mass at an optimal state.
On the "potato" thing, its mostly because it helps solidify many of the plant based proteins... Soy for example is as good as most meats EXCEPT it sucks for leucine amino acid... hence having potato or another protein to balance it out actually makes it as good as meat That said, most meat/eggs are amazing.. and things like peanut is terrible since its like 47% absorb rate, etc.
One of my favorite fast protein meals that has some healthy carbs as well is egg whites with a homemade salsa. I make jalapeno lime salsa at the beginning of the week, and souffle my egg whites in the microwave. Takes about two minutes, and it's 200 cal, 25g protein, 15g carbs, 0g fat for like 200g of liquid egg whties and 5 tbsp of salsa. It's really satiating.
Is this a good weight loss diet? Breakfast: Steamed tofu(no olive oil) Lunch:Chocolate Chia seed pudding sweetened with allulose(topped with unsweetened cocoa nibs, coconut shreds, toasted coconut and strawberries) Dinner: Steamed tofu with onions and broccoli(light olive oil.) I also rarely sit. And I drink unsweetened tea and water.
If you workout, this diet will likely leave you tired and hungry all day. Can you eat this most times a week for the rest of your life? If not, you may see results in the short term, but end up right where you started when branching out to other foods. I'm not sure if you're vegan, but even so I wouldn't revolve my diet around tofu.
Fun fact about DIASS scores: (over)processing meats have lower scores than their less processed versions. Another argument to avoid overly processed foods and try to stick to home cooked meals!
Clearly some people leaving comments here are not aware of chemicals & hormones which are found in meats. To be vegan is not necessarily a religious decision. America is the worst country for allowing harmful chemicals to be injected or fed to cattle, swine & chicken. Lobbyists for Big Beef, Bid Dairy, etc. spend a great deal of time & money to help pass laws allowing food to contain substances which have negative long term effects on people! It’s a money thing; not a health thing. Some people cannot afford to buy meats that do not contain excessively chemicals. Sometimes doctors tell patients to avoid red meat for various reasons. Maybe, just maybe, some parents don’t want their children growing up consuming bad chemicals. It’s a health thing; not a control thing. 🌸
Ask Alexa how many kilograms in your weight in pounds. Take the conversion number multiply by your needs per kilogram. Example 140 pounds is 64 kilograms. Multiply 64 by 1.6 if exercising. 102.4 is your protein need. Alexa can calculate it for you.
Good content & very informative. However, it is tiresome after 5mins how fast & rambling your delivery is. You could talk slower, punctuate (pause occasionally) more - your sentences ramble & get really fast paced, and you talk until you run out of breath which is too much after a while.
This is really hard to do as a vegan. Basically it's going to be nuts & beans. Racking up lots of calories just to get high protein which in turn is making me gain weight.
maybe try some vegan protein bars or powders? i get 45g with a bar and a smoothie. i hate that i'm eating so much processed food, but it helps me reach my daily target protein goal
No cow protein bars are vegan and pretty good too. There's also tofu and some faux meats if you're not opposed to them. And of course protein powder, textured vegetable protein, Tempe (which I don't like), and chia seeds. I did low carb plant based for a while, so it's possible but not exactly easy it's a lot easier for vegetarians or pescaterians. Edit: I forgot some vegan Yogurts are good too like kithill Greek style (I use it to make a fake bread). Definitely check out cheap lazy vegan or un natural vegan who talk a lot about hoe to get protein as a vegan.
Eating enough proteins to lose weight or at perimenopause needs a "strong" diet, based on animal proteins, and is not compatible with vegan diet. You must choose.
Hi Autumn ! ❤ Thanks for the video! I wanted to ask how people in the olden days used to cope with protein intake ? People were so much more active than nowdays, but didn't have things like protein powder and I don't things used to eat.meat and fish everyday.
I think that North Americans used to eat meat or fish pretty much every day. These were definitely the staples of their diet. I think it was pretty basic. Like a “meat and potatoes” diet.
I have been trying to meet my daily protein needs by adding smoothies with Greek yogurt and cheese but I think dairy is stalling my weight loss. I am very carb sensitive. What could I eat to get my weight loss moving again? I do eat meats and hard boiled eggs.
The one thing I have noticed is that I though I was getting enough protein but I wasn't. So the first thing I did is I made a spreadsheet that calculates the protein count so that I can know how much protein that I get in a meal. I used the information from Johns Hopkins Medicine. It helps when planning meals.
Thank you for your videos! I just subscribed to your channel. Can you please clarify why avocado toast with egg is bad? I thought it was good. Thank you!
Instead of eating the foods with the protein in them, can we drink protein drinks as a substitute? A lot of the time I’m not hungry, but I can always go for a pre-made protein drink.
Did you calculate this correctly because I'm heavier than that and I only have to eat 104 grams of protein. You take your body weight and divide that by 2.2 which would be your weight in kg. Then, you decide on your activity level and let's say you have none - you take the lowest number - 1.2. You take the weight in kg and times that number by 1.2. That number would be your total protein. You split that total amount of protein between your meals.
Love your content. I learned so much about protein. Thank you. Do you recommend grocery store rotisserie? I don't trust them. They are hot sitting on Styrofoam and covered in plastic and who know what's injected in them.
Thank you for all of this information I’ve been looking for a way to get the right amount of protein from the right food sources. I’ve been on a food journey for over six months lost 42 pounds and then suddenly I’m just at a plateau I am 60 years old but it was working now I think I hit a wall and I believe I do need more protein at least my doctor says so so you have given me some good information and tips and I appreciate it.🤗
It's kind of correct to say that we shouldn't count collagen as part of our protein need. But it's needed also, for building our body structure. So, I would change the advice in the video into: Get 1.2 g / kg bodyweight of good protein. Get an additional 10 % of that amount in collagen.. Collagen doesn't replace protein. You need that too, in addition to your ordinary protein. This becomes more important the older you get, because the bodys ability to convert amino acids diminishes with age. For a vegitarian, who doesn't want to eat collagen, the amino acid glycine can somewhat replace collagen. But you will still not get enough of prooine and hydroxyproline, which collagen has. What we are after with eating collagen is mostly the amino acids the body needs to build its own collagen. There's about 27 different types of collagen in the body, but all of them need about the same amino acids. Collagen, any collagen, is just a simple way of getting them. There's a category of amino acids which are called "semi-essential", because the body can convert other amino acids into them. But that's really a misnomer. They are so essentioal that the body converts other proteins into them! That means, the body can't do without them! It will produce enough of them to survive, if it doesn't get them from food. Any protein expert should do well to focus on these "semi-essential" amino acids, and not only on the "essential".
Hello Autumn thank you for your content it’s of great value. Why is collagen proteïne different than whey protein? And how should I take the collagen then? Confused about the two..thank you ❤
I crave for crunchy chips. I love them. Is it chemically induced hunger or habitually induced hunger… I know that I don’t need to buy one…but if there’s a bag, I don’t want it to go to waste…
OMG me too, I can't have them in plain sight in my house. Some alternatives, if you're interested, are salted almonds (and salted roasted nuts in general), salted pumpkin seeds, seaweed "chips," roasted seaweed (you can make this on a griddle or waffle iron), and celery sticks. And things like kale chips, but I find them to be a pain in the butt to make.
Sometimes this can be a general salt craving and less of a "chips" craving. Habit can also play a big factor, particularly if these more refined carb rich foods are eaten in response to stressful moments.
Right now, my "quick protein fix" is canned sardines in oil and Vienna sausages. I know it's not ideal, but it's something I can grab quickly through a busy day. How bad are Vienna sausages?
Hey ! Thomas Delauer has a YT vid about 4 years ago titled use this protein not that protein. He is claiming whey protein spikes insulin what is it more than white bread and adding fat to this causes fat Storage. What is your opinion on this? Just when I switch out pea for whey . So confusing with all this contradicting information. ☹️
So very happy to find your channel!!! I’m hoping you can/will recommend a sugar free or low sugar vanilla protein powder good for weight loss, PLEASE 🥰🙏🏻🥰
Collagen is missing tryptophan, so by definition it is not a complete protein. But, is a solid option. It’s is not the best for building muscle because it is not significant in Leucine which is the essential amino tied to muscle growth.
Great info Autumn. Not sure if you can answer this. I just finished a 7 week cancer treatment and lost 25 lbs. I need to gain weight. My nutritionist has me drinking Boost plus shakes, they are way too high in sugar and carbs. That is how I have been "eating" for about 4 weeks now. Today was the first day I was able to eat solid food. Any suggestions from you would be greatly appreciated or other subscribers. thanks
Protein and carbs have 4 calories per gram. Fat has 9 calories per gram Adding fats to your meals will help boost your calories without bulking up your plate or stomach Also, hope all is well after your treatment
I'm actually trying to gain weight, but since I would prefer to build muscle than fat (obviously) I try to eat around 100g protein/day. For that reason I often swap oats for soy flakes or add soy crispies as topping to my porridge. Canned or frozen peas and beans are another easy protein source for main dishes - instead of guacamole try pea(-cashew) puree ;-) At least, in Germany, we have some very high protein-low fat cheese called "Harzer Käse" or another called "Quäse". It's got quite an interesting taste that may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it makes a good evening snack. Another favourite snack is carrots/pepper/cucumber with greek yogurt. If plain yogurt is too boring, add a tiny bit of some fancy tasty oil (e.g. walnut) and some spices
Thanks for this! Question... how much protein can you have in one sitting and how long should you wait before having the next intake of protein? I'm 43, 5'11, 180lbs. TIA! :)
If I'm 200KG, and I'm trying to cut my weight down to 150KG, should I be eating 1.2g x 150KG or 1.2g x 200KG. It's amazing how much things have changed over the last 20 years.
I've watched a few of your videos and I haven't heard you talk about protein shakes that you can buy on the go. I assume they're okay if they're low in sugar/fake sugar?
@3.25 "Know your protein serving". Your recipes say "add 2 scoops of my zero sugar protein powder", but don't tell us how much that is. How big is the scoop? How many grams of protein is that, in case we are finishing up another brand and want to make the substitution. This would be very helpful information.
Hi, I was curious about what a obese person that was 299 pounds would drink on a protein shake I bought akins protein shakes I'm knew at this I have big legs I hold retaining fluid I don't want remain big I want to be slim and toned I bought a rebound trampoline for my work out can you help me with 💡 ideas on how to start I eat 2 eggs in morning and turkey bacon 10 am and I use to not eat lunch or snack but I at dinner at 3 pm but nothing after that I fast but I had a cousin mentioned for me to drink a protein shake when I didn't eat I'm scared to gain more weight.
I want to lose weight for my Granddaughters they are babies I want to be active to keep up with them I'm 51 and 299 pounds I really messed up on my eating I'm ready for a change so I can live longer I live in a small town not much around to find out ways to get help with ideas on how to do this I'm 5'4 I'm short but I'm very young minded but I have osteoarthritis in my joints and I don't work anymore from my pain I have a bad knee or leg that gives me pain I've been to bone and joint Dr they give me gel injection but gave me a card for obese weight loss surgery instead of fixing it. I can't afford any weight loss program I'm broke but I did but a rebound trampoline to work out on for starting can you tell me exactly how I can lose this weight the proper way Im trying fasting, I weight to eat my breakfast at 10 am I eat eggs and turkey bacon and I don't eat lunch I don't snack I eat my dinner at 3 pm on a small salad saucer plate I eat non starchy vegetable and a piece of meat ,I bought some protein shake by akins for a meal replacement that my cousin mentioned to do cause she lost weight by doing it and she looks and feels great I want to do this right I use to be a size 6 in my 20 cause I starved my self most the time I went through a divorce but I got remarried and gained it all back. I'm in a size 22 24 😢 I have no energy but I struggle with my mind set to do it I'm human but I really need this for my family and myself. I can't afford any programs and I live in a rural town that don't have much options for helping weight loss.
But I really don't know much knowledge about protein drinks and how much a woman my size needs plus I don't want to gain weight on top of my weight I already have 😮 I want to lose weight and keep it off and be slim and trim and not all saggy maybe toned but I don't want to be a body builder and feel happy I don't want to feel miserable 😖 I know it takes time and I have to be the one to do nobody can do it for me. But if someone can teach me the knowledge of it all would help. So can you answer this one? For me how many protein shakes should I have at my weight that would work and not cause me to gain weight?
Kenny, to start out, please use current weight to determine the grams of protein need per day. After 2 weeks of intermittent fasting to get the fat burning process to kick in, then you can gradually lower the grams of protein need per day base on 10 lbs less than the start out weight (230 lbs - 10 lbs = 220 lbs in this example). That way, you don’t have to feel the excruciating hunger pain. Don’t forget to add in the daily walk of 10 K steps / day goal as possible. Good luck on your journey. This is from my experience. If someone has a better experience, please share with us.
I am a very active 73 yr. old. I don't know if anyone else has this problem but gluten free protein powders (high quality) and gluten free protein bars also high quality give me very significant gastrointestinal problems. I don't know why. But the protein gain is not worth it to me for the distress I experience.
How much protein should I need then I weigh 375 lb trying to lose weight. So do I need over 300 grams of protein a day??seems alot .I'm confused I've never paid attention before.
Because I listen to so-called experts on protein protein protein, everything that I did the last 2 years was actually poisoning my system. I am now at a stage 3 kidney disease, and here's the things that I had to change immediately. For my body weight I can only have a total of 54 grams of protein a day. Potassium phosphorus and sodium were killing my kidneys. I've had to change everything about the way I'm eating and even though I am a carnivore at heart and will always be I have had to go vegetarian even though I'm kicking and screaming while doing this. Caution people that high protein is not for everybody. Our kidneys are the only organs that cannot repair themselves. Once they are done they are done it's dialysis and transplant.
I am sooooooo confused???? If I were to say fast for 72 hours (or longer) what happens then as I am not taking any protein? Why is it so important to have so much protein daily when fasting doesnt have any? So how does this fat/protein/fasting thing work? I have Dercums disease which is diet amd excercise resistent weight gain, so I need to do something really radical in order to shift weight - ie long fasts, but I dont understand the roll or need for protein when doing this. Surely the body is programmed to utilise fat before it uses protein?
I have a lot of various deli slices: roast beef, ham, pastrami, etc. I also have a few varieties of cheese sliced up as well. When I I'm feeling peckish and need a snack I'll just wrap a couple slices of whatever meat around a slice of cheese. I'll make one to a few rollups depending on how hungry I am. It hits me with a pretty good blast of fat and protein and depending on how many I eat, will keep me satiated for one to several hours quite easily. And it's literally just pulling out slices of meat and cheese, then rolling them up. Can have an entire meal put together and cleaned up in under like 3 minutes :)
My son is 6'5 and 330 pound SEC offensive lineman who works out daily, heavy lifting. He would have to eat 528 grams of protien a day LOL I can assure you his trainers do not recommend this. I am 5'11 and my goal weight is 190 I also lift heavy. I also cannot eat 304 protein a day.
Thank you! I did not realize Collagen protein powder was not a complete protein. Is there anything to eat with it that makes it complete or is it just a bonus item?

I find it so hard to get my required protein. I’m 5’10 200lbs and tend to under eat so it just feels so hard to get my needs met.
what do you use to track
@@downbad2874 I use the my fitness pal app. I’ve used it off and on for years. It’s pretty solid. Just don’t get caught up on the exercise calories they give you back. Ignore those.
I like your videos and your advice but I’m trying to figure out why you would show a picture of two fried eggs with big red X’s beside them advising to not make this mistake. Am I missing something?
thank you for this video, i am loosing weight and i struggle to eat enough protein through the day.
this was very helpful.
Interesting how the US recommended amount of protein per body weight is in the metric standards kg, instead of body weight being in pounds...🤔
Maybe it's converted to kg so it's easier to figure out how many grams of protein 🤷♀️ I'm just guessing though, I think that's a interesting too
I believe we use that standard for protein because that's what the studies are based on - grams protein per kilogram bodyweight.
Great video! Thank you for the information-
Great video Autumn … great facts & no fluff 👍👍
Thanks Kim!🤓❤️
Thank you for this information, your videos are always so helpful. Could you do as a favor please and slow down just a little bit when you talk? Thank you!
Potato protein?! I would be interested hear your thoughts on eating potatoes that have been cooked and then cooled, turning the starches in to resistant starches? If potatoes are high diaas then could this be a work around - or should they be avoided general?
thats such a small factor in potatoes, "resistant starches" my fucking god just eat meat and accept that the only protein worth buying and eating is animal based proteins and whoever says any different is trying to find a loophope to prove their irrelevant theories which will never affect how we digest food. I've been raised in a family with mediterranean diet and mostly italian diet,my father is a doctor who doesn't know shit about nutrition cause he always stayed lean but even my family who aren't informed about food know meat is the most expensive food out there cause it's the best for our body,my father prescribes whole raw bone marrow for kids with blood disorders and kids who have spleen problems and that shows how simple it is, theres a reason why meat is expensive and being plant based fixes nothing in this world besides it ruins your gastrointestinal system,even my grandmother from an italian background when she doesn't feel good (nausea,gas,stomach discomfort or constipation,diarrhea) etc... list goes on ,has her own "traditional" remedies which consists of bone marrow broth with salt only or meat stew with salt only, she drinks a whole pot of broth and doesn't eat all day long until next morning and still she eats either boiled meat with a glass of milk or yogurt,and she never had any weight issues,she eats pasta twice a day and bread with fig jam 5 times a week and she still is healthy considering shes nearly 70.
resistant starches mean nothing cause insulin doesn't work in a selective way and if you dont believe me get a blood glycemia test in the morning 12 hr fasted and drink a cup of black coffe no sugar,test your blood glucose again and see it has spiked through the roof,insulin gets activated even with a simple glass of water so starches or no starches make no difference in the whole picture, just look at how italians eat and you'll understand, every type of bread or pasta we eat is combined with plenty of meat or seafood,or fresh dairy products and cheeses,we eat plenty of seasonal fruits and alot of pastries in the weekends,it's a balance that keeps people healthy,i eat a pizza every week or more often than that and im still too skinny i get told to gain weight,italian napolitan style pizza is so light that it's a meal worth of calories unlike american pizza which has a dense bready crust and some ugly ass ingredients as toppings,even breads are different cause we buy it fresh at the bakery every day cause the next day it's stale and hard,unlike american supermarket bread that is just "weird" cakey and not bready,just buy a baguette from a good bakery and see the difference compared to supermarket bread,a baguette or even ciabatta bread won't last more than a day after you've sliced it but supermarket bread lasts like a year,those types of weird foods are what's ruining our bodies and diet,it's weird when i see people like you ask moronic question as if potato starches would make a difference and somehow a potato could be a protein source , italians have a saying for potatoes, "potato is bread" meaning that if theres no other carbs in the house like pasta or bread there's potatoes to replace those carbs,just like we cook pastas we cook potatoes, lasagna with minced meat,cheese and tomato sauce can be done the same with potato mince meat and tomato sauce, thats how we look at potatoes as bread or pasta substitute ,if you think of getting protein from potatoes then you're really dumb or you're lying to yourself cause you're stuck on a vegan identity and you labeled yourself that so you got to live in such way to please your ego cause you're scared of ruining that image of yourself which you trusted even though it's failing (obvious by your question of potato protein and resistant starches being a game changer in how people like you eat), it's sad and you know it,if you're stubborn enough to refuse acknowledging how pathetic your question was then continue until you fail and fall back on your old eating habits,if you're conscious enough you'd understand there's no secret to eating and weight management aside from moderation and balance mixed with plenty of fresh seasonal foods and fresh animal products to keep your hormones and muscle mass at an optimal state.
On the "potato" thing, its mostly because it helps solidify many of the plant based proteins... Soy for example is as good as most meats EXCEPT it sucks for leucine amino acid... hence having potato or another protein to balance it out actually makes it as good as meat
That said, most meat/eggs are amazing.. and things like peanut is terrible since its like 47% absorb rate, etc.
Great info, like your no nonsense facts based approach so subscribed looking forward to going through your other content.
Thanks so much, Jeff! Excited to have you here!
One of my favorite fast protein meals that has some healthy carbs as well is egg whites with a homemade salsa. I make jalapeno lime salsa at the beginning of the week, and souffle my egg whites in the microwave. Takes about two minutes, and it's 200 cal, 25g protein, 15g carbs, 0g fat for like 200g of liquid egg whties and 5 tbsp of salsa. It's really satiating.
Is this a good weight loss diet?
Breakfast: Steamed tofu(no olive oil)
Lunch:Chocolate Chia seed pudding sweetened with allulose(topped with unsweetened cocoa nibs, coconut shreds, toasted coconut and strawberries)
Dinner: Steamed tofu with onions and broccoli(light olive oil.)
I also rarely sit. And I drink unsweetened tea and water.
If you workout, this diet will likely leave you tired and hungry all day. Can you eat this most times a week for the rest of your life? If not, you may see results in the short term, but end up right where you started when branching out to other foods. I'm not sure if you're vegan, but even so I wouldn't revolve my diet around tofu.

Woohoo! Thanks for tuning in, Ervin!
Fun fact about DIASS scores: (over)processing meats have lower scores than their less processed versions. Another argument to avoid overly processed foods and try to stick to home cooked meals!
Clearly some people leaving comments here are not aware of chemicals & hormones which are found in meats. To be vegan is not necessarily a religious decision. America is the worst country for allowing harmful chemicals to be injected or fed to cattle, swine & chicken. Lobbyists for Big Beef, Bid Dairy, etc. spend a great deal of time & money to help pass laws allowing food to contain substances which have negative long term effects on people! It’s a money thing; not a health thing. Some people cannot afford to buy meats that do not contain excessively chemicals. Sometimes doctors tell patients to avoid red meat for various reasons. Maybe, just maybe, some parents don’t want their children growing up consuming bad chemicals. It’s a health thing; not a control thing. 🌸
Ask Alexa how many kilograms in your weight in pounds. Take the conversion number multiply by your needs per kilogram. Example 140 pounds is 64 kilograms. Multiply 64 by 1.6 if exercising. 102.4 is your protein need. Alexa can calculate it for you.
This is such an informative video 👍🏻
Good content & very informative. However, it is tiresome after 5mins how fast & rambling your delivery is. You could talk slower, punctuate (pause occasionally) more - your sentences ramble & get really fast paced, and you talk until you run out of breath which is too much after a while.
Smoothies are my favorite way to add in protein! And so easy on the go!
I 10000% agree!😋
Wow thank you, this answered some questions for me as I’m implementing collagen into my diet!
This is really hard to do as a vegan. Basically it's going to be nuts & beans. Racking up lots of calories just to get high protein which in turn is making me gain weight.
maybe try some vegan protein bars or powders? i get 45g with a bar and a smoothie. i hate that i'm eating so much processed food, but it helps me reach my daily target protein goal
Vegan protein isn’t as bioavailable either
No cow protein bars are vegan and pretty good too. There's also tofu and some faux meats if you're not opposed to them. And of course protein powder, textured vegetable protein, Tempe (which I don't like), and chia seeds. I did low carb plant based for a while, so it's possible but not exactly easy it's a lot easier for vegetarians or pescaterians.
Edit: I forgot some vegan Yogurts are good too like kithill Greek style (I use it to make a fake bread). Definitely check out cheap lazy vegan or un natural vegan who talk a lot about hoe to get protein as a vegan.
@@VerySimplyEl yeah tofu is way less eco than meat
Eating enough proteins to lose weight or at perimenopause needs a "strong" diet, based on animal proteins, and is not compatible with vegan diet. You must choose.
Thanks for this video. Can you please answer why most of us think it’s 1gm per 1 lb? Thanks
Hi Autumn ! ❤ Thanks for the video! I wanted to ask how people in the olden days used to cope with protein intake ? People were so much more active than nowdays, but didn't have things like protein powder and I don't things used to eat.meat and fish everyday.
I think that North Americans used to eat meat or fish pretty much every day. These were definitely the staples of their diet. I think it was pretty basic. Like a “meat and potatoes” diet.
Smoothies make me sooooo hungry just an hour after having one.
Please slow down. It is great info but hard to really absorb. Thank you
you can watch it at a slower speed if you need or want too.
@@fjp9 I have to!
Thank you for all you do. You have been such an inpiration to me. And your idea of delicious smoothies for breakfast - amazing. 🤗🤗😚
I absolutely love eating walnuts with my breakfast every morning and drinking a glass of warm water with honey every morning.
I have been trying to meet my daily protein needs by adding smoothies with Greek yogurt and cheese but I think dairy is stalling my weight loss. I am very carb sensitive. What could I eat to get my weight loss moving again? I do eat meats and hard boiled eggs.
have you tried protein powders?
If you keep a calorie deficit and exercise you will achieve success… and eat Whole Foods
The one thing I have noticed is that I though I was getting enough protein but I wasn't. So the first thing I did is I made a spreadsheet that calculates the protein count so that I can know how much protein that I get in a meal. I used the information from Johns Hopkins Medicine. It helps when planning meals.
1.6 g/kg of body weight is 0.73 g/lb.
Thank you for your videos! I just subscribed to your channel. Can you please clarify why avocado toast with egg is bad? I thought it was good. Thank you!
Just a guess but maybe it depends on the portion of avocado you choose? Avocado is calorific so it would be easy to over consume.
Love your info packed fast talkin' vids!!!
Thanks Daniel!🤓❤️
Instead of eating the foods with the protein in them, can we drink protein drinks as a substitute? A lot of the time I’m not hungry, but I can always go for a pre-made protein drink.
Thanks Autumn. Your thumbnail deceived me. I thought eating two eggs was a mistake!
Thanxs April
Weighing at 172 lbs how can I eat 200 grams in a day? It sounds really hard I’m so open to suggestions
Did you calculate this correctly because I'm heavier than that and I only have to eat 104 grams of protein.
You take your body weight and divide that by 2.2 which would be your weight in kg. Then, you decide on your activity level and let's say you have none - you take the lowest number - 1.2.
You take the weight in kg and times that number by 1.2. That number would be your total protein. You split that total amount of protein between your meals.
Love your content. I learned so much about protein. Thank you. Do you recommend grocery store rotisserie? I don't trust them. They are hot sitting on Styrofoam and covered in plastic and who know what's injected in them.
That’s very true about whey protein powder, often two scoops to get the total grams stated.
Thank you for all of this information I’ve been looking for a way to get the right amount of protein from the right food sources. I’ve been on a food journey for over six months lost 42 pounds and then suddenly I’m just at a plateau I am 60 years old but it was working now I think I hit a wall and I believe I do need more protein at least my doctor says so so you have given me some good information and tips and I appreciate it.🤗
It's kind of correct to say that we shouldn't count collagen as part of our protein need. But it's needed also, for building our body structure.
So, I would change the advice in the video into:
Get 1.2 g / kg bodyweight of good protein.
Get an additional 10 % of that amount in collagen..
Collagen doesn't replace protein. You need that too, in addition to your ordinary protein.
This becomes more important the older you get, because the bodys ability to convert amino acids diminishes with age.
For a vegitarian, who doesn't want to eat collagen, the amino acid glycine can somewhat replace collagen. But you will still not get enough of prooine and hydroxyproline, which collagen has.
What we are after with eating collagen is mostly the amino acids the body needs to build its own collagen. There's about 27 different types of collagen in the body, but all of them need about the same amino acids. Collagen, any collagen, is just a simple way of getting them.
There's a category of amino acids which are called "semi-essential", because the body can convert other amino acids into them.
But that's really a misnomer. They are so essentioal that the body converts other proteins into them!
That means, the body can't do without them! It will produce enough of them to survive, if it doesn't get them from food.
Any protein expert should do well to focus on these "semi-essential" amino acids, and not only on the "essential".
Hello Autumn thank you for your content it’s of great value.
Why is collagen proteïne different than whey protein? And how should I take the collagen then? Confused about the two..thank you ❤
I crave for crunchy chips. I love them. Is it chemically induced hunger or habitually induced hunger… I know that I don’t need to buy one…but if there’s a bag, I don’t want it to go to waste…
Stop buying and try pork rinds.good luck
OMG me too, I can't have them in plain sight in my house. Some alternatives, if you're interested, are salted almonds (and salted roasted nuts in general), salted pumpkin seeds, seaweed "chips," roasted seaweed (you can make this on a griddle or waffle iron), and celery sticks. And things like kale chips, but I find them to be a pain in the butt to make.
@@cianap.281 yum yum!!!! 🎉
Sometimes this can be a general salt craving and less of a "chips" craving. Habit can also play a big factor, particularly if these more refined carb rich foods are eaten in response to stressful moments.
would you please state ounces in addition to grams in each of your posts
Right now, my "quick protein fix" is canned sardines in oil and Vienna sausages. I know it's not ideal, but it's something I can grab quickly through a busy day. How bad are Vienna sausages?
What’s the dairy free yogurt with higher protein? I can’t find one anywhere
Hey ! Thomas Delauer has a YT vid about 4 years ago titled use this protein not that protein. He is claiming whey protein spikes insulin what is it more than white bread and adding fat to this causes fat Storage. What is your opinion on this? Just when I switch out pea for whey . So confusing with all this contradicting information. ☹️
YOU. ARE. THE BEST! Thank you for continuing to crank out awesome videos. :)
So very happy to find your channel!!! I’m hoping you can/will recommend a sugar free or low sugar vanilla protein powder good for weight loss, PLEASE 🥰🙏🏻🥰
Collagen is missing tryptophan, so by definition it is not a complete protein. But, is a solid option. It’s is not the best for building muscle because it is not significant in Leucine which is the essential amino tied to muscle growth.
Great info Autumn. Not sure if you can answer this. I just finished a 7 week cancer treatment and lost 25 lbs. I need to gain weight. My nutritionist has me drinking Boost plus shakes, they are way too high in sugar and carbs. That is how I have been "eating" for about 4 weeks now. Today was the first day I was able to eat solid food. Any suggestions from you would be greatly appreciated or other subscribers. thanks
Protein and carbs have 4 calories per gram. Fat has 9 calories per gram
Adding fats to your meals will help boost your calories without bulking up your plate or stomach
Also, hope all is well after your treatment
Great info!!
Great video!
What's the best protein powder to use if your over 50?
Yes, please answer this question! I drink garden of life protein powder, plant based so I would love for her to answer this. Thank you so much 🥰
I'm actually trying to gain weight, but since I would prefer to build muscle than fat (obviously) I try to eat around 100g protein/day. For that reason I often swap oats for soy flakes or add soy crispies as topping to my porridge. Canned or frozen peas and beans are another easy protein source for main dishes - instead of guacamole try pea(-cashew) puree ;-) At least, in Germany, we have some very high protein-low fat cheese called "Harzer Käse" or another called "Quäse". It's got quite an interesting taste that may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it makes a good evening snack. Another favourite snack is carrots/pepper/cucumber with greek yogurt. If plain yogurt is too boring, add a tiny bit of some fancy tasty oil (e.g. walnut) and some spices
I appreciate you mentioning number four.
Thanks for this! Question... how much protein can you have in one sitting and how long should you wait before having the next intake of protein? I'm 43, 5'11, 180lbs. TIA! :)
If I'm 200KG, and I'm trying to cut my weight down to 150KG, should I be eating 1.2g x 150KG or 1.2g x 200KG. It's amazing how much things have changed over the last 20 years.
doesnt seem like she replies to any of these post
I agree but it’s a win win for me because I don’t like avocado and much less with toast, and I sure don’t like sunny side up eggs
I've watched a few of your videos and I haven't heard you talk about protein shakes that you can buy on the go. I assume they're okay if they're low in sugar/fake sugar?
@3.25 "Know your protein serving". Your recipes say "add 2 scoops of my zero sugar protein powder", but don't tell us how much that is. How big is the scoop? How many grams of protein is that, in case we are finishing up another brand and want to make the substitution. This would be very helpful information.
Hi, I was curious about what a obese person that was 299 pounds would drink on a protein shake I bought akins protein shakes I'm knew at this I have big legs I hold retaining fluid I don't want remain big I want to be slim and toned I bought a rebound trampoline for my work out can you help me with 💡 ideas on how to start I eat 2 eggs in morning and turkey bacon 10 am and I use to not eat lunch or snack but I at dinner at 3 pm but nothing after that I fast but I had a cousin mentioned for me to drink a protein shake when I didn't eat I'm scared to gain more weight.
I want to lose weight for my Granddaughters they are babies I want to be active to keep up with them I'm 51 and 299 pounds I really messed up on my eating I'm ready for a change so I can live longer I live in a small town not much around to find out ways to get help with ideas on how to do this I'm 5'4 I'm short but I'm very young minded but I have osteoarthritis in my joints and I don't work anymore from my pain I have a bad knee or leg that gives me pain I've been to bone and joint Dr they give me gel injection but gave me a card for obese weight loss surgery instead of fixing it. I can't afford any weight loss program I'm broke but I did but a rebound trampoline to work out on for starting can you tell me exactly how I can lose this weight the proper way Im trying fasting, I weight to eat my breakfast at 10 am I eat eggs and turkey bacon and I don't eat lunch I don't snack I eat my dinner at 3 pm on a small salad saucer plate I eat non starchy vegetable and a piece of meat ,I bought some protein shake by akins for a meal replacement that my cousin mentioned to do cause she lost weight by doing it and she looks and feels great I want to do this right I use to be a size 6 in my 20 cause I starved my self most the time I went through a divorce but I got remarried and gained it all back. I'm in a size 22 24 😢 I have no energy but I struggle with my mind set to do it I'm human but I really need this for my family and myself. I can't afford any programs and I live in a rural town that don't have much options for helping weight loss.
But I really don't know much knowledge about protein drinks and how much a woman my size needs plus I don't want to gain weight on top of my weight I already have 😮 I want to lose weight and keep it off and be slim and trim and not all saggy maybe toned but I don't want to be a body builder and feel happy I don't want to feel miserable 😖 I know it takes time and I have to be the one to do nobody can do it for me. But if someone can teach me the knowledge of it all would help. So can you answer this one? For me how many protein shakes should I have at my weight that would work and not cause me to gain weight?
I usually don't eat lunch or snack what I meant to say I'm thinking about a meal replacement protein shakes instead 😕
So edemame is a good choice on a keto/ low carb lifestyle?
Question about protein. I weigh 230. I want to get to 170. Do I eat protein based on my current weight or my goal weight?
Kenny, to start out, please use current weight to determine the grams of protein need per day.
After 2 weeks of intermittent fasting to get the fat burning process to kick in, then you can gradually lower the grams of protein need per day base on 10 lbs less than the start out weight (230 lbs - 10 lbs = 220 lbs in this example). That way, you don’t have to feel the excruciating hunger pain. Don’t forget to add in the daily walk of 10 K steps / day goal as possible. Good luck on your journey. This is from my experience. If someone has a better experience, please share with us.
I am a very active 73 yr. old. I don't know if anyone else has this problem but gluten free protein powders (high quality) and gluten free protein bars also high quality give me very significant gastrointestinal problems. I don't know why. But the protein gain is not worth it to me for the distress I experience.
are the protein powders flavored? I am just asking because artifical sweetners can cause severe gastro issues in some people.
Every time she says:
Weight loss goal ❌
Weight law school ✅
I have higher cholesterol.just do whites?
What plant based options of Greek yogurt are there?
How much protein should I need then I weigh 375 lb trying to lose weight. So do I need over 300 grams of protein a day??seems alot .I'm confused I've never paid attention before.
Because I listen to so-called experts on protein protein protein, everything that I did the last 2 years was actually poisoning my system. I am now at a stage 3 kidney disease, and here's the things that I had to change immediately. For my body weight I can only have a total of 54 grams of protein a day. Potassium phosphorus and sodium were killing my kidneys. I've had to change everything about the way I'm eating and even though I am a carnivore at heart and will always be I have had to go vegetarian even though I'm kicking and screaming while doing this. Caution people that high protein is not for everybody. Our kidneys are the only organs that cannot repair themselves. Once they are done they are done it's dialysis and transplant.
I must of missed the do not do this in this video? What is the point of the thumb nail?
I am sooooooo confused???? If I were to say fast for 72 hours (or longer) what happens then as I am not taking any protein? Why is it so important to have so much protein daily when fasting doesnt have any?
So how does this fat/protein/fasting thing work? I have Dercums disease which is diet amd excercise resistent weight gain, so I need to do something really radical in order to shift weight - ie long fasts, but I dont understand the roll or need for protein when doing this. Surely the body is programmed to utilise fat before it uses protein?
I have a lot of various deli slices: roast beef, ham, pastrami, etc. I also have a few varieties of cheese sliced up as well. When I I'm feeling peckish and need a snack I'll just wrap a couple slices of whatever meat around a slice of cheese. I'll make one to a few rollups depending on how hungry I am. It hits me with a pretty good blast of fat and protein and depending on how many I eat, will keep me satiated for one to several hours quite easily. And it's literally just pulling out slices of meat and cheese, then rolling them up. Can have an entire meal put together and cleaned up in under like 3 minutes :)
I like you! Great info , new sub here! Thank you!
Welcome to the AENpeeps! Excited to have you here!🤓❤️
Just starting on my journey! Lots of information. What to start off with? Protein powders???? Ahhh

Is Seitan a good vegetarian option for someone trying intermittent fasting and keto?
My son is 6'5 and 330 pound SEC offensive lineman who works out daily, heavy lifting. He would have to eat 528 grams of protien a day LOL I can assure you his trainers do not recommend this. I am 5'11 and my goal weight is 190 I also lift heavy. I also cannot eat 304 protein a day.
So what was the picture of avocado toast and eggs about?
Thank you! I did not realize Collagen protein powder was not a complete protein. Is there anything to eat with it that makes it complete or is it just a bonus item?
I would just view it as a "bonus" or "supplement" item and pair it with a normal serving size (for your needs) of complete protein.
Could you elaborate on the amount of protein your body is able to pick up per meal? i read something about 30grams per meal. Please advise! thank you
