when eating, why do i aim to eat at least 10g of protein per 100kcal?
↳ this means around 40% of calorie intake is protein based
1. increased satiation: protein makes you feel fuller for longer, helping in the initial stages of fasting. reducing calorie intake, reducing curb hunger/ binging, and improving insulin sensitivity*
2. boosts metabolism: protein digestion burns more calories than digesting carbs or fats, giving you a little metabolism boost
3. preserves muscle: protein helps maintain muscle during weight loss, keeping your metabolism higher - more muscle burns more kcals, even at rest
4. helps with muscle recovery: protein supports muscle repair (and i exercise almost every day, so i need a nice recovery)
*the better your body reacts to insulin, the better it regulates blood sugar levels, preventing sugar crashes (hypoglycemia triggers hunger because your body needs a fast source of energy to recover from it, and fast sources of energy usually include carbs and sugars), so eating more protein when you do eat literally means easier fasting
i'm only 100g away from my next gw oh myyy
