Does anyone on here do a protein based diet? I'm not talking about Atkins or South Beach. I am talking about increasing your protein mixed with good carbs. I went to a dietician and trainer. They put me on a plan of eating 5-6 small meals a day around 200-300 calories. The first 3-4 meals can be a protein mixed with a good carb like wheat bread, wraps, fruit, etc. Then the last 1-2 meals were just carb based with endless green veggies. (i usually have a salad or brocolli) Does anyone follow a plan similiar to this and have some good ideas? This really worked for me in the past and kept me full throughout the day and kept me from cheating. I just got bored with the limited variety. How much chicken can a girl eat in a day?
