Your protein intake. It’s pretty much non existent. 🥴
If I asked how much protein you’re getting in each day, and you don’t have an answer… thats a red flag that you’re not eating enough 🚩🙅🏼♀️
You know those moments in your life that were so embarrassing and their family will never let them live it down? Weirdly enough one of mine relates to protein 😬
The year is 2010. You’re sitting at the family desktop in your living room, messaging your crush on facebook messenger. He says he’s trying to bulk up and has been going to the gym. You ask him what his protein intake is. He has no idea what that means. You tell him protein is what helps your muscles to grow. I’m cringing remembering how weird this was. Lol 😬🤦🏼♀️
Needless to say....things didn’t work out 😂 I actually don’t have any memory of any conversations we had after that day. LOL
...to this day my mom teases me about this 🙃 BUT let’s learn from his mistakes! 😅
So here’s some real ways you can beef up your daily protein🍳🥓🥩
✖️Eat protein with every meal. Spread it out evenly each meal and thank me later😉
✖️Have a high protein breakfast! Aim for at least 20g. Try proats, eggs, pancakes, protein coffee!
✖️Protein. Pasta. 🤤 angel hair, chickpea based, frozen, I love it all. my taste buds can’t even taste the difference lol
✖️Protein powder DOESN’T just have to be mixed with water! and it’s really easy to bake or cook with. mug cakes, muffins, pancakes/waffles, puppy chow, pie, pinterest is bae here. Or mix up a shake and pour it over cereal. DONE.
✖️Stock up on high protein snacks for on the go! Turkey jerky, hard boiled eggs, greek yogurt, sf jello, nuts. I always carry a bar and some jerky with me everywhere. Ya girls gotta eat!
✖️VEGGIES! Mushrooms, broccoli, edamame, lentils, beans and quinoa are all awesome sources of protein.
✖️Every gram adds up ❗️high fiber/protein bread, that 0.5 ounce extra meat each meal, the milk you put in your coffee, all of it 🙌🏼
Don’t be like my middle school crush guys 🤪 eat that protein and your gains will thank you! 🤟🏼
