I've tried every single diet and here is how I hit my protein goals

Hitting your protein target shouldn’t feel like a second job. In this episode, I show exactly how I reach 0.7–1.0 g of protein per pound of target body weight with real meals I actually enjoy. You’ll learn why protein is the most important macro for women over 40, how much to aim for, the best timing, and simple ways to raise intake without living on dry chicken.

My go-to protein sources

• Wild fish (salmon, halibut, sea bass)

• Grass-fed, grass-finished beef and lamb; pastured chicken and pork

• Eggs + liquid egg whites, Greek-style yogurt, cottage cheese

• Lentils and legumes with quinoa or wild rice; hemp, chia, flax

• Protein powders (pea and bone broth) tailored to whey-like amino acid profiles

Simple upgrades that help

• Protein digestive enzymes with protein-rich meals

• Essential aminos when breakfast is light or training is fasted

• Track intake with a food scale and Cronometer for two weeks to calibrate portions
