So I'm starting to dabble into foods that are actually better for me. Right now I go shopping and go for the "fat free" or "low fat" labels. I know that this isnt always the case and I want to make the step to eat foods that are better for me and promote higher metabolism and weight loss.
Let's start with Protein:

All meats with turkey, chicken and tuna being some of the highest.
Dairy, cottage cheese is a great source of protein.
Nuts, grains and granola

Greek Yogurt, String Cheese, Peanut Butter, Nuts, Meats0

beef, chicken, turkey, fish, nuts. Also things like milk and cheese have protien as well, but not a huge amount.0

CHICKEN!!! i love chicken, it is such a versatile meat. Keep it healthy by baking & grilling0

Eggs, fish, lean meat, protein shakes/bars (though be careful, a lot of them have a ton of sugar too), milk, almonds, lentils, beans.
Hope this helps. Protein is great, keeps you fuller for longer and helps build and maintain muscle.0 -
