This is partly why people feel so full on carnivore/keto/low carb while simultaneously eating lower calories.

I’ve been doing low carb, but I’m definitely not getting enough protein. When I get hungry I would chug water. I’m going to incorporate more protein. Side note, check out the benefits of doing a gallon of diy alkaline water a day. (Lemon + Himalayan sea salt)
General rule of thumb is 0.8-1.0 gram of protein per pound of body weight.
I think the fasting shrunk my stomach so much I just don’t feel the hunger like I should. Going to step it up. 💪🏻
Do you take any protein shakes or supplements to make sure you get enough even if your full or are you pretty good with the food intake and protein daily? Bc I don’t eat something typically until 10-10:30am but I’m up at 4:30. I’m going to try to wait until 11/12 to eat but after you said what people should be consuming protein wise. I know I don’t get that much haha. Was easier back in the day while playing sports and only focused on working out/eating right.
I probably get 50 grams a day from shakes and like 170 from food. So a little from shakes.
