Hi everyone! Love reading everyone’s posts and so grateful for the knowledge shared
I am in a good place fitness wise - working out with a trainer twice a week and lifting heavy, running fairly regularly (aiming for 3x per week but at the moment it’s more like 1 … I’ll get there!)
However, my weight is pretty much maintaining … I’d like to lose around 10/15lbs to get to a healthy BMI and to see the results of my fitness a little more. So, basically I want to do a cut.
My issue is I find it suuuuuper hard to stick to my deficit cals as I’m just so hungry. I know protein is the answer and looking at my macros I’m at about 85g protein per day (ie yesterday in brief: latte, B: toast w. peanut butter L: chicken salad S: protein flapjack D: salmon curry - this was around 1700 cals and I’m aiming for 1500)
Wondering if anyone has any tips on how to take in more protein and stay in a deficit? Thanks in advance!
