Eat more to weigh less

You don’t have to go hungry to lose weight. Research shows that adding protein to your diet lets you fill your plate and shed pounds
Slide 1 of 9

Proteins

We lose muscle mass after middle age, which slows metabolism and can lead to weight gain. Research shows that diets with up to 50-percent protein may help and are safe for most (except those with kidney disease). A 130-pound adult could aim for 70 grams daily. These substitutions will add protein—but won’t add lots of fat and calories.

50% of protein?? Are you kidding me!! What will happen to your kidneys and liver? They are responsible for the breaking down of enzymes! That is exactly how people have kidney problems! Be more specific with Peanut Butter!! Natural Peanut Butter not Krafts Sugar loaded PB! Canned Tuna?? Hellooo Mercury!!! Good Carbs = fruits & veggies, that is what you need 40% of! 30% protein, 30% good fats (nuts, unsaturated fats found in canola & sunflower oil as well as olive oil). Watch ur portion size! Eat more = smaller HEALTHY meals 5 times a day
