My go to is 4 eggs in the morning, then i have a protein shake at lunch. For dinner I’ll stick to meat/seafood.
I try to hit ~150g of protein this way so i don’t lose too much muscle while cutting.
Discussion
One thing i noticed is that every meal is much more enjoyable because i feel a bit like i did while i was fasting.
I can really feel the calorie deficit. Every meal is more strategic, trying to feel the most full and get the most nutrition to get me to the next meal.
There is basically no room for alchohol in this setup, so i had to cut that out to keep this up.
High protein/fat makes it way easier to keep the calorie deficit since you feel full longer. Cutting alcohol is crucial, it’s so empty
cheers to that
stearic acid, in particular, is very important because it is a precursor for a hormone that signals satiety. this is why the carnivore people talk about it so much. i have several times experienced after eating about 600g a day for a couple of days, that for a whole day i don't feel hungry.
this fatty acid also is found in cacao butter, so you can get some of this without eating meat, though there is loads of other good things in the beef that help in other ways. stearic acid is a commonly used pill coating material, it's a hard waxy substance that gives chocolate its rigidity and brittleness.
Eggs, meats/seafood, some fruit to quench the sweet cravings is all you need
