Protein: The Most Overlooked Fat-Loss Tool – Explained Simply

When most people are trying to lose fat they just eat less. This is the WRONG approach.

You want to eat smart.

 You NEED to Prioritize eating protein with every single meal and use it as your #1 fat loss tool.

Why?

• Protein keeps you full longer

It’s by far the hardest for your body to break down which means:
slower digestion —> steady energy —> fewer cravings —> less snacking.

• Protein speeds up your metabolism

Protein has the highest thermic effect of food – meaning your body burns more calories when digesting it. 

- Carbs ~ 5% of calories burned digesting it.

- Fats: 2-3% of calories burned digesting it.

- Protein: 20-30% of calories burned digesting it.

So, if you eat 100 calories of chicken, your body uses up to 30 calories just breaking it down.

• Makes sure you only lose fat and NOT muscle

When you're in a calorie deficit and not eating enough protein, your body doesn't just lose fat; it also loses muscle.

Muscle makes it easier to burn fat and so you want more muscle, not less. Protein will ensure that your body holds on to the muscle that it has while it sheds the fat when you're in a calorie deficit.

• Reduces late-night and emotional eating.

Protein stabilizes your blood sugar. And when you have stable blood sugar, it equals fewer crashes and fewer crashes equals less of a craving when it comes to eating sugar. 

In this case, it’s not about being disciplined but about making it easier on yourself to make the right decisions.

If you want a blueprint on how you should structure your meals then checkout the following:

• 30-40% of your meals should be protein

• Around 10% healthy fats

• The rest complex carbohydrates
