How To Make Your Meals Filling When Your Calories Are Low
Ask Me A Question For Next Week's Episode!
DISCLAIMER - low calorie diets are not ideal and I don’t support them. My ideal situation would be more activity.
Included in this episode:
- Are low calorie diets ideal? No.
- Is it more ideal to be more active? Yes.
- Before supporting a lower calorie diet, I am always going to be a huge advocate for becoming way more active.
- When you are sedentary, your calories will be low.
- But sometimes - especially if you are a shorter/smaller woman, your calories are sadly lower than what the food environment we live in supports. So what can we do about it?
- Eat high protein
- I think we have heard this a lot but no one is actually taking it seriously. You have to make sacrifices to consistently hit that protein goal but you must.
- Don’t forget about fiber or fat - consistently hitting your fiber will keep you satiated for longer. If you don’t have healthy fats you are going to feel like shit.
- High volume meals - wayyyyy more fruit and veg
- Anabolic ice cream/mass meals
- Meal timing and dialing in macros
- Phasic approach and planned refeeds
- Help with preventing negative effects of dieting long term.
- Nutrient dense over all. Over everything.
- Eat high protein
- Every time you eat, it counts - you have to be intentional with what you are eating:
- If it fits my macros isn’t going to work for you.
- Nutrient dense food.
- High protein, fiber and intentional fat
- Less ultra processed foods
- Ideal meal ideas:
- Lean ground beef, potatoes, green beans with ghee/grass fed butter, egg
- Chicken thighs or breast, rice/potatoes, broccoli ghee/grass fed butter, egg
- Any salad - cottage cheese dressing
- Anabolic ice creams
- All the berries
- Nonfat greek yogurt and cottage cheese
- Fish fish fish fish, shrimp
- Fiber: beans, berries, avocado, popcorn, any veg, potatoes.
- Cut the ultra processed stuff that is high in calories, designed to make you over eat.
- Be consistent. Hit your steps. Watch out for warning signs (sleep, stress, anxiety, excessive cold, ruminating on food, brain fog). Takes time. Scary but you have to stick with the process.
