[QUOTE="muzza3, post: 2435178, member: 258123"] That is correct. So you need to adjust your diet to get the additional protein. I don't eat Eggs a lot as they also include a fair bit of fat. In the mornings I have YoPro High Protein yogurt and also one for desert each evening. This get me a about 30g of protein and only about 14grams of Carbs and 2 grams of fat. (they are also very nice love the Mango) I only eat vegetables with dinner and would consist of 1/2 cup of each of Cauliflower, Zucchini, Broccoli and carrot for example. For lunch I might just have a rib eye steak or a quarter roast chicken (no veg). Most of us on high protein will use either a protein shake or bar during the day to top up the protein particularly when you have no time to cook during the day. Some cold meats are good snacks and I have the occasional pack of salted popcorn in the afternoon I calculate the ratio over the whole days foods and make some food decisions depending on where the ratio is at as the day progresses. At a ratio of 2.5 for one meal is more than feasible if meat and a little veg but over a whole day you are either eating a ton of Protein or very little carb and fat over the day so I don't think that would be sustainable Not at all but the reality is that even if you go low carb/low calorie to lose weight you will need to measure these macros and adjust what you eat or you will continue to get the same result. So going thru this process should help you either way. Best of luck [/QUOTE]
