PROTEIN REMINDER! The testimonials continue…Just today a couple more people said they feel way better since focusing on increasing their intake of protein. If you’re trying to increase your daily allotment of protein to 1 gram per pound of bodyweight, you need to weigh and measure it. There is literally no other way around it. If you’ve not weighed and measured your food for a prolonged period of time, you are not yet trained enough to eyeball out your portions. If untrained eyes try to guess how much they’re eating, it’ll be incredibly inaccurate. But it gets easier after only a bit of practice and is well worth the “work” when you start experiencing the benefits of a protein adequate diet. In order to hit your 1 gram per 1 pound of bodyweight goal, you need two things: 1) you need to know how much you yourself weigh by measuring your weight on a body scale, and 2) you need to know how much meat and other protein containing foods you’re actually consuming by measuring it on a food scale. That is literally the only way! The dinner, provided by Huz: 14 ounces of ribeye, fresh baked sourdough (thanks MaryAnna), and juicy watermelon. Macro breakdown: 71g protein, 60g of fat, 88g of carbs (1176 calories)
