I read on here that lchf means limiting your protein to approz 1g per 1kg body weight.
So a 6 oz steak is approx 48g. If someone weighed 80kg then needs no more than 80g a day. So I guess what I'm asking is this is easily done by say 2 eggs for breakfast. Say a very small amount of tuna or other fish. And let's say an 8oz steak. ( a reasonable size).....its certainly means watching portion sizes... reading through the what did you eat today thread...some people eat more protein than this. I've recently bought this fantastic book ...Carbs and Cals. And the pictures show approx portions and weights. I think I've been eating more protein than I should...not much more. But do any of you eat a little more protein? And does it affect your weight loss? When you read online lots of sites say you can eat protein in amounts until satisfied. I'm aware the fats are important too... it can be confusing
