WIEIAD 100g+ of protein & 100lbs down

2025/1/8 Edited to

... Read moreWhen I first started my weight loss journey, hitting my protein goals felt impossible, especially trying to lose 100 lbs! But I've discovered some amazing strategies and delicious meals that make getting over 100g of protein daily totally achievable and enjoyable. My 'What I Eat In A Day' isn't about restrictive diets; it's about smart choices that keep me full and satisfied. For breakfast, my go-to is often a protein coffee. It’s super simple to make and packs a punch with around 30g of protein for only 170 calories, especially when I use a Premier Protein shake as the base. It’s a quick way to kickstart my protein intake without feeling heavy. I've also experimented with adding a touch of ZERO SUGAR PEPPERMINT MOCHA creamer (as seen in my meal details) to make it feel like a treat. Snacks are crucial for keeping hunger at bay and boosting protein. I'm a big fan of beef sticks and hard-boiled eggs. A single beef stick combined with a hard-boiled egg can give me around 26g of protein for about 315 calories. I usually opt for brands like Chomps because of their quality and convenient size. Paired with some strawberries or a spoonful of peanut butter, it’s a filling and satisfying snack. And yes, I always have Oikos Triple Zero yogurt on hand – 15g of protein per serving is fantastic! Lunch and dinner are where I get creative. My absolute favorite staple, which you saw, is the lemon shrimp orzo. It’s so flavorful and relatively quick to make, yielding about 35g of protein for 380 calories. The key is to toast the orzo with oil and garlic, then add chicken broth and a good squeeze of ReaLemon 100% lemon juice. For another easy dinner, I often make chicken & mac. Instead of regular pasta, I use Goodles, which are much higher in protein. This meal gives me around 27g of protein for 340 calories. And let's be real, sauce is everything! I'm always looking for ways to fit in delicious sauces, and the G Hughes "healthier" version of CFA sauce is a game-changer for adding flavor without extra guilt. One of my biggest lessons has been that consistency beats perfection. It's about finding meals you genuinely enjoy that also support your goals. Don't be afraid to incorporate lighter options like Dr Pepper Zero if that helps you stick to your plan. The journey to losing 100 lbs wasn't linear, but by focusing on high-protein, balanced meals and staying mindful of my choices, I've managed to maintain my progress. It’s about building sustainable habits, not just short-term fixes. Prioritize protein, enjoy your food, and celebrate every small victory!
