How to feel satisfied and lose weight

Have you ever wondered if fat plays a role in your weight loss journey? If so, what kind and how much? Or does that even matter:)

 

Let’s take a look at the S fuel, the SATISFYING fuel.

 

Fats are satisfying. When you eat fatty food or a fatty meal, you're usually satisfied for a good long time. 

 

The S(atisfying) meal includes protein plus fat. 

 

How much protein should you be eating? Normally, you can look at the size of your palm. And that's about how much protein you need. At each meal. You’re looking anywhere from 15 - 30 grams of protein. Anchor all of your meals and snacks with some type of protein to help keep your blood sugar stable.

 

The S(atisfying) meal is protein PLUS non starchy veggies PLUS fat.

 

Non Starchy veggies are the vegetables that don't have a lot of starch in them. They're not carb heavy at all. Look at broccoli and summer squash. Check out cauliflower and Romaine lettuce. 

 

Now let’s look at the FATS. Satisfying meals are all about the fats that you add. This could be coconut oil, butter, olive oil or ghee. 

 

A S(atisfying) meal is going to look something like this:

> Fattier pieces of meat such as pot roast, chicken thighs, chicken legs, or steak.

+ your non starchy veggies which could be cauliflower and broccoli 

+ add fat. Drizzle your veggies with some butter and sprinkle on some cheese.

That is going to be your S meal. 

 

Notice that we don't have any carbs or we have very low carbs. 

 

The goal for carbs if we're looking at numbers would be less than 10 grams of carbs for this particular meal.

 

Have fun making your meals, oh, so satisfying.
