Today, we talk all about the magic macronutrient, protein. We discuss the importance of a protein-rich diet and its role in habit building, satiety, muscle growth, and “toning.” We talk about a few common reasons people struggle to eat enough protein, and share some simple ways to integrate more protein into your meals

We also talk about Team BFF’s 28 Day Shred challenge - ongoing at the time of this recording – which is built to help participants begin building consistent habits and self-confidence. We touch briefly on informed eating and the purpose of tracking calories or macros.

"Take it one step at a time and simplify it for yourself. Get those single ingredient proteins and just amp up the serving size."
