Nutrition Tips:

Lifestyle changes don’t happen overnight, so don’t try and change everything all at once. Start with small things, like limiting your soda intake, and then work your way up. Restricting your food choices and going on a meal plan may work for a while, but it is simply not sustainable. Strict and inflexible dieting has been shown to lead to overeating and an increased prevalence of eating disorders. Use a flexible approach to dieting by tracking your carbohydrates, proteins, and fats rather than abiding by a strict and unforgiving meal plan.

Protein:

Protein plays a key role in muscle recovery and helps you feel full when dieting. While eating an adequate amount of protein is necessary, it is important not to overdo it. Balance is important, and the amount of protein  you need varies depending on your weight. Those who are lean and training hard may need slightly more protein than someone who is overweight. One gram of protein per pound intake is an adequate amount for most people who are attempting to maintain muscle mass while reducing fat. While protein is important when it comes to maintaining muscle mass, it is important to keep it balanced.
