Protein-Packed: Delicious High Protein Foods to Try

Course Summary

• Focus on High-Protein Foods:
  • Choose proteins you enjoy: red meat, chicken, fish, pork, tuna, etc.
  • Pair every protein with a healthy fat: avocado, real butter, avocado oil, olive oil, coconut oil, tallow, bacon grease.
  • Season proteins without added sugars; avoid sauces like barbecue sauce with high sugar content.
  • Red or darker meats have more iron and can keep you fuller longer.
• Tips for Busy Individuals:
  • Ground beef can be a versatile option, seasoned differently for various meals.
  • Eating high-protein foods can feel diverse and prevent monotony.
• Eating Right:
  • Focus on satiety, not quantity. Eating the right foods prevents overeating.
  • Cravings diminish after 3-7 days of eating correctly.
• Getting Family On Board:
  • Request support, such as removing trigger foods like Oreos from the pantry during the transition.
  • Clean out the pantry and prepare by shopping for the right foods.
• Supplements and Preparations:
  • Have digestive enzymes and electrolytes ready.
  • Optionally, weigh yourself or take body measurements before starting.
