- Here's how I would hit 150g of protein in a full day of eating:
150g or protein is about what I eat in a day but If you aren’t sure how much protein you personally should be eating, Around 1g per pound of bodyweight is a great place to start if you’re active.
For breakfast, I have Greek yogurt. Not only are there a lot of ways to make it tasty, but it’s a great option if you're short on time and don’t want to cook to start your day. I love it with berries or granola or some chopped walnuts
For lunch, I have about 8 oz of lean fish like Grouper or Cod.
Grouper has 28g of protein per 4 ounces, so it’s a great option for a lean protein source.
For dinner, I have 5 oz of steak, which I love using in tacos, on a salad, or in a stir fry.
And since I have a sweet tooth, I would include a protein treat like a protein pop tart for dessert.
Hitting your daily protein intake goal comes down to planning your meals. If you know what you're going to eat ahead of time, it's a great way to make sure you hit your daily intake.
Remember other foods you eat during the day will have protein and I do include that in my overall intake so make sure to track for the best results
Hitting your daily protein without burning your wallet is hard 😂
Unless you eat like trillion eggs per day 😂😂
I agree or we buy in bulk to share the cost like Costco or Sam's club.
Maple syrup mixed w tahini is the goated green yogurt topping when honey gets old
So calories are some white not important. What’s really important is it protein requirements for your lean body weight. Because obviously fat doesn’t really have any protein requirements. Neither does bone. But muscle ligaments and other aspects do. Also, age plays a factor into protein absorption so you might have to eat more if you are older. You also wanna have a decent amount of fat in your diet for hormone healthy. So really carbs and excess fats is what you want to increase or decrease depending upon for you are looking to lose weight or gain weight.
Protein Pop Tart? Never heard of that one.
They are horrible don't waste your money
Great suggestions! 😊 i am eating 1350 calories daily. I don't find it that difficult to get my protein. I am not eating 3 full meals a day, and have no desire to. Eat some meat people! 😊 I have a protein shake in the morning, use part as creamer for my coffee. So i start the day at 30 grams of protein. 🎉
But this food just doesn't look good or sustainable
1 g of protein per lb of LEAN body weight. I think it’s important to clarify
Those protein pop tarts are so good 😋
OMG i need a list of protein deserts! where did you get those poptarts.
They’re from Legendary foods!
Um, isn't the calculation for the protein per weight off? Because if I do this as an overweight person I'd have too much protein. That can't be good either!
When you are overweight you do the calculations on how much to eat diffrently, but either way its too much. The rule is 0.8/1 gr per KG
If over weight u do 1gram per pound of your goal body weight for instance if your weight is 170 and u wish to be 125 then you would eat at least 125 grams of protein per day etc
I love her girly move when she ate the food😂. I love her abs❤
That seems to be too much food to me.
Its only 600kcals how the heck is that to much food ??
do you live in africa
I don't eat cow milk yogurt but eat goat milk and add collagen and pbfit to boost protein
Is it healthy for your kidneys to have such protein? Is it not acidifying for the body too?
Its not healthy, the rule for normal amount of exercise is 0.8/1 gr of protein per kg.
I think she is doing 1gr per pound because she went over the fact that 1kg is around 2.2 pounds (if i remember correctly)
@@sarabaretto110it is perfectly healthy for a normal human,
If youve got digestion issues or kidney issues it would be different,
Now please take that stupid face mask off
Drinking water is important. There's a reason you see those body builder guys walking around with big jugs of water. Checking urine output for clarity and not cloudy to make sure you aren't dehydrated is also a way for you to monitor yourself since every body is different don't just go by the 8 glasses rule it's inaccurate, most people just aren't getting enough water to flush their kidneys. Even if they aren't working out or trying to hit protein goals.
Meal planning tips?
How can vegans reach desired daily protein intake?
CJ, I use Huel Protein without flavour and combine it with my meals.
@@mondradiamond3850 thank you. I supplement with vegan protein powder as a drink. Do you just mix it into your food?
Not at all. Vegans are malnourished all the time
Pea Protein powder, Tofu,Tempeh, Edamame, Beans, Quinoa. It's not as easy if you don't eat meat, but do able.
@@michellevallejo1119 thanks! I do eat those but the volume of food can be too much for me. I rely alot on pea protein powder. Spacing it out during the day or I just get too full.Too bad protein isn't in a pill form!
what if you're obese? should you eat 1 gram per pound in THAT situation?
I like your videos but that pop tart has some bad stuff in it.
I can barely get to 100 grams. By that point, my appetite is pretty much gone.
Previous experience with trainers and studies suggest it is nearly impossible for the body to break down much more than 35g of protein in a one sitting. Anything over is a waste of calories intake
I want to clarafiy here, that the body doesn't just waste the extra protein, it just said to take longer to be absorbed.
If im on 47 kg of thiny I need 70 un
On a day. Max 90 .
literal bullshit.
Thank you for this
I weigh 280 I'm overweight I'm 5,11
What should my other macros be in proportion to high protein for losing body fat? For example I weigh 180, am female, so aiming for that 150g of protein to start with since I get full very quickly is gonna be interesting for me.
I’ve never done a high protein diet/lifestyle before.
Do I need to stay under a certain amount of carbs and fat or can I just focus on protein and not worry about the others?
I’ve been eating healthy and working out for almost 3 months and the scale is not budging but I can see that I’ve lost a little belly fat so I think I’m not getting enough protein at around 90-95g per day.My starting weight was 185 so I’ve only lost 7 lbs so far and can’t seem to break 178. I keep teetering on that 178-180 mark.
Anyone’s advice and/or opinions appreciated!
I’ve been doing research but I like to hear from others’ experience.
I'd focus first on small increases to what you're currently doing. And often I have clients shoot for about 30% of their calories from protein first to start. And great job on that progress already!
@@redefiningstrengthOC thank you so much! I know it’s different for each body so thank you for the advice and I’ll start there. If I don’t see a change I’ll adjust my fat and carb macros accordingly. I know my body doesn’t like carbs that much (or I should say really loves and holds onto them 😅)
Thanks again!
Those pop tarts are 🤮. Complete waste of money.
It’s so fvcking hard to achieve 150g of protein a day without any knowledge and with a full day of work in the healthcare industry. 😢
The only way to achieve something we haven't done before is to learn and tweak what we're currently doing. But I have clients in all walks of life making slow and steady changes to their current meals, even using these tips to help. But when we track, we gain that power to adjust!
@@redefiningstrengthOC I just hope that it’s as easy as it looks like. I know it’s not. I tried many times and failed, unfortunately.
Who is eating 300g of protein a day?
The body can only process about 25g of protein at a time, so you need to space it out.
While you may use 20-30 grams for muscle building at one time you can digest and utilize up to 70 grams easily in a meal. Meal timing, age, other macros consumed at the same time, metabolism, calorie intake all can impact how much you need/utilize at that time. And as long as you hit your macros for the day and need the calories you will use what you consume!
Nonsense. An old myth.
I never really have the time to plan means, and always just had a very long dinner (1-2h) of eating on large meal at the end of the day to get my intake. While I understand this would be hard on my digestive system, it's just works for me. However I keep finding statements like the one above, where the claim "the body can only absorb 25g at a time, the rest is wasted" could you help me understand what is true or if that's just a myth? I assumed it just take longer to digest but it's not wasted.@@redefiningstrengthOC
@@redefiningstrengthOC So as a normal nooby. Would it be fair to say that I should put more focus on reaching that daily protein amount instead of trying to split it up throughout the day?
People need to chill and live. 🙄
Im on 47 kg
Who can afford all that food ???
did you say LIver? ugh!
So expensive
Here are some tips to help you rock those macros on a budget! :-) redefiningstrength.com/fhp-628-the-cost-of-health?sl=yc
How can I eat 150g of protein that fast? 😁
Turkish yogurt
Yes. I agree
280 lbs would like to be 200lbs so should I eat 200 grams per day
Yes then see how it goes
@@pauldavies7251 okay
Please share vegetarian options as well :)
Whey protein, egg whites, cottage cheese
Beans, lentils, wheat, nuts, seeds
0.8-1g of protein per lb. of LEAN body weight (aka you minus the fat)
Curious what your daily calorie intake is?
@@RickMartinTH-cam you are probably right. I have trouble getting my protein macros because I'm trying to lose weight and eating in a calorie deficit.
If you are trying to build muscles, eat at maintenance, lose weight, eat 250-500 calories less and keep your protein at ur ideal weight
@@cathy3305 it’s so easy to eat enough protein wtf are you eating
@@lukas6485 it’s not the most affordable to buy enough to meet daily protein needs
I need a vegetarian option because RIP to your bowl movements
1 gram per pound????? I really like your content but please pick one standard of measurement (preferably metric) and stick to it. Thanks ❤
I use grams x pounds of bodyweight because my clients weigh in POUNDS and in most food trackers, macros are listed with gram totals for goals. This allows them to have an easy calculation to use.
