Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

This episode is going to teach you how much protein you actually need to lose weight, and how to eat more protein when using intermittent fasting. 

You may have heard that intermittent fasting is one of the best ways to lose weight...and for many, it is! It can be the needle mover in a plateau. Plus it’s easy, convenient, free and saves you time on meal prep and dishes. 

But a common pitfall people who are trying to lose weight can fall into, is using intermittent fasting as a means of restrictions - falling back into the old diet mentality. Then, when they do eat, they’re under-fueling and putting their body in a state of starvation.

When done right, intermittent fasting boosts your metabolism. 

When done wrong, it’s no better than a regular chronic calorie restricted diet that’s been shown to crash your metabolism for 6 months to 4 years, leading to weight regain.
