PSMF Macro's & How to...
❤️High Protein ❤️lower Fat ❤️ Minimal Carbs
❤️Protein - This is the most important for today
️ 🥩Lean Protein - target 1 gram for lean body mass
️ 🤍You will mostly eat protein today - 60 + grams
🤍Your body will convert protein to energy if you are very low (you don't need carbs)
❤️Fat keep is low (no added fats today)
🤍 This is a lean protein day... no added "dietary fat"
🤍 Your body will burn "Body Fat" for fuel... that is what is awesome, right?

❤️Carbohydrates 🥖
🤍PSMF days are 20 grams or less
🤍 This enables your liver to empty (think detox)
🤍 Lowers your insulin levels
🔥 Body burns through muscle glycogen and starts burning fat
Here are my favorite lean protein items:
❤️Breakfast: Eggs, Egg Whites, Turkey bacon, chicken sausage, Cottage Cheese, Jello
For me, Protein Sparing days I usually skip breakfast, if I get hungry, I sip on bone broth or have some homemade jello
❤️Yogurt (watch the carb count & not added sugar)
❤️Lean cuts of beef and pork: top round, 95% lean ground beef, filet, loin
❤️Chicken and turkey breast
