Go high protein/low carb to get optimal body composition

Benefits-

• Protein is more satiating ( makes you full ) and you will keep you from eating more calories.

• Protein helps you manage blood sugar and insulin

• When you eat more protein and less grains, sugars and carbs you will  then have fewer cravings for these foods.

• You burn more calories at rest after eating protein than carbs 

SOME GUIDELINES

• Aim to eat less than 50 grams of carbs from fruits, veggies and beans ( if you eat more than that in veggies its not a big deal )
•  Avoid processed and packaged foods.  
• Eat enough fiber! You must get enough fiber because when you go low carb generally the fiber intake goes down as well.
• Don't be afraid of fats. If you go lower carb you must increase your good fat intake from things like avocados, nuts, cheese etc.
