How I’m losing 65 lbs post-baby by 3xing protein

Looking good, doing good. Feeling better.

Female fitness models typically eat 1.0 to 1.5 grams of protein per pound of body weight per day, depending on their goals (fat loss, maintenance, muscle gain) and training intensity.

📊 Example:
• A 140-pound female fitness model:
• Maintenance or lean muscle gain: 140–180 grams of protein/day
• Fat loss (with muscle preservation): 140–160 grams/day

⸻

💡 Why So Much?
• Protein helps preserve muscle mass during cutting phases
• Supports recovery and lean muscle growth
• Increases satiety, helping with appetite control

⸻

🥩 Common Protein Sources:
• Chicken, turkey, lean beef
• Egg whites and whole eggs
• Fish (salmon, tuna, cod)
• Greek yogurt, cottage cheese
• Protein powders (whey, casein, plant-based)
• Tofu, tempeh, legumes (in plant-based diets)
