    I had the identical problem. Well. That. And I was overweight. But protein was hard for me. Make sure your calorie limit is truly correct. Sometimes we underestimate our caloric needs...

    I use a nutrient-dense superfood protein shake. They are not all created equal. Stay away from soy/soy isolate protein. Look for undenatured whey—it’s the highest quality of protein out there.

    I stopped dieting. All I did was ADD nutrient dense food and protein to my life. And. Voilà. (Oh and since April 14, I exercise 3 times per week for 50 minutes). 😊💪🏼🌟

    Me February 12, 2018....the day I started ADDING nutrient dense food and protein to my day. And August 12, 2018—6 months of adding nutrient dense food and protein to my life.

    WOW, you look amazing! All you did was add and not take away?

    OK, I have adjusted my protein goal a bit lower. I am not sure about my calorie goal. MFP still wants to have me at 1200 based on what I input on my goals. Again, I am trying to be lean and strong, build some muscle and lose fat.
