Protein is essential to your diet, especially as you look to build muscle and stay healthy. Still, overeating is another issue that you’ll want to avoid, making for a fine line between eating well and eating too much. Here are some high-protein meals that will be sure to satisfy your appetite so that you don’t push the limits of your diet.

Tuna Burger

For this meal, you’ll want to get a juicy piece of firm, seared tuna to use as your patty. Add some creamy mayo, avocado, and your favorite garnishing to make a crunchy, scrumptious yet healthy burger.

Sweet Chili Salmon

Giving you both protein and those omega 3s, all you have to do to whip up this tasty dish is buy a delicious piece of salmon and baste it in sweet chili sauce before baking it in the oven. Add some couscous or rice as a side dish.

Garlic Shrimp With Quinoa

Consisting of shrimp, lemon, spices, and of course garlic, this is an easy dish to make, with everything going in a single pan. What’s more, it takes just a few minutes to prepare.

In a world inundated with fad diets and often conflicting advice about nutrition, intuitive eating offers a refreshing approach to nourishing our bodies and minds. Unlike traditional dieting, intuitive eating is not about strict rules or calorie counting but instead encourages us to listen to our bodies, honor our hunger and fullness cues, and cultivate a positive relationship with food. By tuning into the way our bodies feel, we can create a sustainable and enjoyable way of eating that supports our overall well-being. Read on for some tips on how to adopt an intuitive eating practice.

Trust your body

Intuitive eating begins with reconnecting to our body’s innate wisdom. Instead of relying on external cues or restrictive eating plans, tune in to your internal signals of hunger and satisfaction, trusting that your body knows what it needs. Eat when you’re hungry and stop when you’re full.

Honor Your Cravings

Suppressing or ignoring cravings often causes feelings of deprivation, which can ultimately lead to overindulgence. Intuitive eating encourages us to embrace our cravings in a balanced way. Allow yourself to enjoy a variety of foods, including those that might be considered indulgent, while being mindful of portion sizes and overall nutritional balance.

Eat Mindfully 

Tapping into our senses is essential to deriving pleasure and satisfaction from anything we eat. During mealtime, slow down and savor each bite rather than mindlessly eating on autopilot. Engage all your senses, notice the flavors and textures, and cultivate a sense of gratitude for the nourishment your food provides.

Oftentimes, when following the dieting rituals of celebrities or fitness experts, they’ll talk about having something called a “cheat day”. The idea of a cheat day is really quite simple. You’re allowed somewhat of a break from all of your usual restrictions related to eating and drinking, and can essentially “cheat” on your diet by having something less healthy. But is this practice really legitimate? And furthermore, how can you implement it into your routine?

True Focus

The only reason that celebs and fitness coaches are able to have cheat days (or cheat meals, for that matter) is because they’re exceptionally good at having self-control. They’re able to have their less healthy meal and move on from that pretty smoothly back into their regularly scheduled diet. If you think you’re unable to do that, then perhaps a cheat day isn’t the right move for you.

Balance

But another part of it is about not getting discouraged. If you think you’re incapable of controlling yourself, there are certainly ways to improve that. Try experimenting with having cheat meals at different parts of the day, and see where you’re less “triggered” by them. The important thing is to never give up, and believe in yourself!

When it comes to dieting, there are countless methods that nutritionists promote. One of these methods is to go cold turkey as far as eating unhealthy foods go. Cold turkey, also known as refraining completely from whatever it is, can be effective for a lot of people. However, it’s definitely not a good idea for some people, and it’s important to remember that. If it’s not working for you, here’s why you shouldn’t worry.

We’re All Different

Everyone is different, from a physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual standpoint. What may work for one individual may not necessarily work for someone else. This is why it’s important not to assume that you’re a failure if another person’s method—such as going cold turkey—didn’t work for you.

A More Natural Approach

You might be the type of approach that doesn’t react well to a strict cold turkey mentality. You might be more akin to a more natural approach. For instance, instead of eating sweet food every night, maybe you can eat it twice a week, or what’s more commonly known as a “cheat day”. Just relax and don’t persecute yourself because you’re on your way to finding what dieting method works best for you!

We all love eating our favorite comfort foods from time to time, even if we know they’re not really healthy or nutritious. If you don’t want to feel guilty after eating your favorite ice cream, here are a few great alternatives to popular comfort food.

Swap Pasta For Spaghetti Squash

Preparing spaghetti squash instead of your usual pasta dinner is an easy way to cut up to 150 calories and it’s just as tasty and very nutritious.

Swap Ice Cream For “Nice Cream”

Ice cream is by far the most popular comfort food, even though it’s not really healthy and is packed with calories. “Nice cream” is the perfect alternative to our favorite comfort food that’s sugar-free and dairy-free, but equally tasty.

Swap Potato Chips For Nuts

Potato chips are the popular, unhealthy snack that we love eating while watching movies. Eating a handful of your favorite nuts is a much better, healthier, and nutritious option and it’s just as crunchy and delicious.

Swap Mashed Potatoes for Cauliflower Mash

Even though we love mashed potatoes, cauliflower mash is the perfect low-carb swap for this popular side dish. It’s easy to prepare and is much more nutritious than mashed potatoes.

When you’re training and working out hard it’s important that your body gets all the protein it needs. Protein helps build and maintain muscle, heal wounds, and provides valuable energy. But it’s not always obvious how you can optimize your protein intake for muscle growth. Here are four top tips.

High Protein Foods

The best advice for getting sufficient protein is to eat lots of high protein foods. High protein animal products include eggs, meat, fish, and dairy. For plant-based, you can have lentils, beans, tofu, pumpkin seeds, oats, almonds, chickpeas, or quinoa.

butternut S Q U A S H stir fry with jammy eggs 🥰 [#ad] One of my favourite quick weeknight dinners often includes some sort of stir fry. Inspired by delicious fall veggies, I made this roasted butternut squash stir fry and WOW did this ever turn out amazing. The addition of a runny yolk mixed with a salty/spicy sauce gave it the BEST flavour 🤩 I *try* to ensure all my meals include veggies, complex carbs & proteins. Whenever I’m stuck on what protein to use, I ALWAYS turn to eggs {no matter the time of day!}. They are an easy, affordable & super nutritious addition to any meal 😉 Ingredients: 1 small butternut squash 2 packs ramen noodles @lotusfoodscanada is my fav 2 eggs Green onion {optional} For the sauce: 1/4 cup tamari, 2 tbsp veg broth, 2 tsp rice vinegar, 2 garlic cloves minced, 1 tsp coconut sugar, 1/2 tsp chili flakes, salt & pepper Details: • peel & chop butternut squash, toss with oil, salt & pepper; roast at 400 for 30 mins + 2 min broil • boil water in a small saucepan & add eggs; boil for 5.5 mins, remove & place into an ice bath • combine sauce ingredients • cook ramen noodles per instructions, drain & toss with sauce & squash • peel & slice eggs • divide into bowls & garnish with green onion & chili flakes . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #happyandfull #EggsAnytime #eggs #dinner #dinnerideas #dinnertime #healthyeating #healthyrecipes #delicious #easyrecipes #vegetarian #vegetarianrecipes #dairyfree #glutenfree #realfood #wholefoods #homemade #nomnom #eeeeeats #foodporn #yolkporn #eattherainbow #eatyourveggies #nutrition #balaceddiet #recipeshare #foodspiration

Animal or Plant-Based?

Plant-based protein is better for the environment and some would say is more ethical. However, it’s not quite as good at building and maintaining muscle as protein from animal products. If you eat a plant-based diet, the best advice is variety. Eat lots of different kinds of protein-rich foods!

Protein Shakes

Protein shakes are convenient and effective. You can tailor the amounts of protein to your workouts and they are quick and easy. But they are only effective if you have been working out regularly for some weeks.

Don’t Over Do It

Protein shakes aren’t a substitute for real food. They are only a supplement for those athletes you do regular hard workouts. The body cannot digest too much protein. It’s best to stick to high priotein nutritious food.

While eating insects might sound strange to many of us, they have been a staple food source in Asian regions for millennia. As many athletes are looking for alternative sources of protein to animal products, insects are becoming increasingly popular. Here are five reasons to consider getting into bugs as an alternative source of nutrition.

High Protein

Studies show that some insects actually have higher levels of protein than many meat products. While the protein level does vary between insect species, the best are crickets, some ant species, and mealworms.

Alternative to Meat and Dairy

One reason for the rising popularity of insects is that they provide an alternative protein source to animal products. As many people are concerned about the treatment of animals in the production of dairy and meat, insects serve as an ethical alternative.

Environmentally Friendly

Farming and eating bugs has significantly lower greenhouse gas emissions than farming cattle.

Interesting Flavors

In the insect world, there are a surprising variety of flavors. You can find flies that taste like blue cheese, ants with a lemony zest, and giant water bugs that taste like watermelon candy.

Easy to Use

You can bake cricket powder into cakes and breads, or fry mealworms in olive oil and season with salt and pepper. This healthy snack is rich in protein, amino acids, and fiber.

One of the biggest problems of sticking to a restrictive diet is the restriction. Your favorite foods are off-limits. You will, of course, be losing weight, but you are still craving fries and cookies. The best diet for you to be able to consistently lose weight and not miss the foods you love is the 80/20 rule. This rule is basically that everything is in moderation. You eat healthy meals 80% of the time and 20% of the time you can indulge in the foods you enjoy.

Before you start this and eat lots of salads during the week and then tons of ice cream and fried foods on the weekend, this is not how it works. You need to know what foods are filled with good calories and which have bad calories. Measure the ratio of the number of fruits, vegetables, and nuts that you are consuming with the bad calories of those filled with sugar or high in fat.

Some of the compliant foods for the healthy 80 percent of your diet are; plant-based foods, lean animal protein, whole grains, low-fat dairy, nuts, seeds, and olive oil. And the suggested foods to indulge in for the 20 percent are foods high in saturated fat, highly processed food, alcohol, and white sugar.

Working out the 80/20 rule might take a little bit of math. Before you start this diet you want to write down your weekly intake of food and their calorie amounts. This will give you a baseline of how much you consume over a week. Once you have worked this out you can calculate the calories that make up the 80 percent, including all the meals and the snacks, and then everything else you eat would be in the remaining 20 percent.

It might take a while to get the hang of it but once you know how to do it you will see great weight loss results and it will become a way of life.

Struggling to incorporate more fresh fruits and vegetables into your diet? Even though it seems hard, eating more plant-based meals can be super easy with just a bit of creativity and organization. Here are a few great ways to eat more plants.

Vegan Burgers

Replace meat in your burgers with healthy plants that have “meaty” texture such as beans and mushrooms. You’ll be surprised at how tasty these plant-based burgers are!

Fresh Fruit and Nuts

Don’t make chocolates and other unhealthy food your go-to snack when you’re in the office. Instead, try to prepare healthy snacks such as bananas, apples, or a mix of your favorite nuts and carry them with you.

Smoothies

Preparing a tasty and healthy meal with fresh fruit and veggies has never been easier. Blend frozen bananas, berries, spinach, and other fruits and veggies you like with milk or yogurt and you’ll have a nice and tasty dose of greens for the day.

We all love eating our favorite comfort foods from time to time, even if we know they’re not really healthy or nutritious. If you don’t want to feel guilty after eating your favorite ice cream, here are a few great alternatives to popular comfort food.

Swap Pasta For Spaghetti Squash

Preparing spaghetti squash instead of your usual pasta dinner is an easy way to cut up to 150 calories and it’s just as tasty and very nutritious.

Swap Ice Cream For “Nice Cream”

Ice cream is by far the most popular comfort food, even though it’s not really healthy and is packed with calories. “Nice cream” is the perfect alternative to our favorite comfort food that’s sugar-free and dairy-free, but equally tasty.

Swap Potato Chips For Nuts

Potato chips are the popular, unhealthy snack that we love eating while watching movies. Eating a handful of your favorite nuts is a much better, healthier, and nutritious option and it’s just as crunchy and delicious.

Swap Mashed Potatoes for Cauliflower Mash

Even though we love mashed potatoes, cauliflower mash is the perfect low-carb swap for this popular side dish. It’s easy to prepare and is much more nutritious than mashed potatoes.

When you’re training and working out hard it’s important that your body gets all the protein it needs. Protein helps build and maintain muscle, heal wounds, and provides valuable energy. But it’s not always obvious how you can optimize your protein intake for muscle growth. Here are four top tips.

High Protein Foods

The best advice for getting sufficient protein is to eat lots of high protein foods. High protein animal products include eggs, meat, fish, and dairy. For plant-based, you can have lentils, beans, tofu, pumpkin seeds, oats, almonds, chickpeas, or quinoa.

butternut S Q U A S H stir fry with jammy eggs 🥰 [#ad] One of my favourite quick weeknight dinners often includes some sort of stir fry. Inspired by delicious fall veggies, I made this roasted butternut squash stir fry and WOW did this ever turn out amazing. The addition of a runny yolk mixed with a salty/spicy sauce gave it the BEST flavour 🤩 I *try* to ensure all my meals include veggies, complex carbs & proteins. Whenever I’m stuck on what protein to use, I ALWAYS turn to eggs {no matter the time of day!}. They are an easy, affordable & super nutritious addition to any meal 😉 Ingredients: 1 small butternut squash 2 packs ramen noodles @lotusfoodscanada is my fav 2 eggs Green onion {optional} For the sauce: 1/4 cup tamari, 2 tbsp veg broth, 2 tsp rice vinegar, 2 garlic cloves minced, 1 tsp coconut sugar, 1/2 tsp chili flakes, salt & pepper Details: • peel & chop butternut squash, toss with oil, salt & pepper; roast at 400 for 30 mins + 2 min broil • boil water in a small saucepan & add eggs; boil for 5.5 mins, remove & place into an ice bath • combine sauce ingredients • cook ramen noodles per instructions, drain & toss with sauce & squash • peel & slice eggs • divide into bowls & garnish with green onion & chili flakes . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #happyandfull #EggsAnytime #eggs #dinner #dinnerideas #dinnertime #healthyeating #healthyrecipes #delicious #easyrecipes #vegetarian #vegetarianrecipes #dairyfree #glutenfree #realfood #wholefoods #homemade #nomnom #eeeeeats #foodporn #yolkporn #eattherainbow #eatyourveggies #nutrition #balaceddiet #recipeshare #foodspiration

Animal or Plant-Based?

Plant-based protein is better for the environment and some would say is more ethical. However, it’s not quite as good at building and maintaining muscle as protein from animal products. If you eat a plant-based diet, the best advice is variety. Eat lots of different kinds of protein-rich foods!

Protein Shakes

Protein shakes are convenient and effective. You can tailor the amounts of protein to your workouts and they are quick and easy. But they are only effective if you have been working out regularly for some weeks.

Don’t Over Do It

Protein shakes aren’t a substitute for real food. They are only a supplement for those athletes you do regular hard workouts. The body cannot digest too much protein. It’s best to stick to high priotein nutritious food.

While eating insects might sound strange to many of us, they have been a staple food source in Asian regions for millennia. As many athletes are looking for alternative sources of protein to animal products, insects are becoming increasingly popular. Here are five reasons to consider getting into bugs as an alternative source of nutrition.

High Protein

Studies show that some insects actually have higher levels of protein than many meat products. While the protein level does vary between insect species, the best are crickets, some ant species, and mealworms.

Alternative to Meat and Dairy

One reason for the rising popularity of insects is that they provide an alternative protein source to animal products. As many people are concerned about the treatment of animals in the production of dairy and meat, insects serve as an ethical alternative.

Environmentally Friendly

Farming and eating bugs has significantly lower greenhouse gas emissions than farming cattle.

Interesting Flavors

In the insect world, there are a surprising variety of flavors. You can find flies that taste like blue cheese, ants with a lemony zest, and giant water bugs that taste like watermelon candy.

Easy to Use

You can bake cricket powder into cakes and breads, or fry mealworms in olive oil and season with salt and pepper. This healthy snack is rich in protein, amino acids, and fiber.

One of the biggest problems of sticking to a restrictive diet is the restriction. Your favorite foods are off-limits. You will, of course, be losing weight, but you are still craving fries and cookies. The best diet for you to be able to consistently lose weight and not miss the foods you love is the 80/20 rule. This rule is basically that everything is in moderation. You eat healthy meals 80% of the time and 20% of the time you can indulge in the foods you enjoy.

Before you start this and eat lots of salads during the week and then tons of ice cream and fried foods on the weekend, this is not how it works. You need to know what foods are filled with good calories and which have bad calories. Measure the ratio of the number of fruits, vegetables, and nuts that you are consuming with the bad calories of those filled with sugar or high in fat.

Some of the compliant foods for the healthy 80 percent of your diet are; plant-based foods, lean animal protein, whole grains, low-fat dairy, nuts, seeds, and olive oil. And the suggested foods to indulge in for the 20 percent are foods high in saturated fat, highly processed food, alcohol, and white sugar.

Working out the 80/20 rule might take a little bit of math. Before you start this diet you want to write down your weekly intake of food and their calorie amounts. This will give you a baseline of how much you consume over a week. Once you have worked this out you can calculate the calories that make up the 80 percent, including all the meals and the snacks, and then everything else you eat would be in the remaining 20 percent.

It might take a while to get the hang of it but once you know how to do it you will see great weight loss results and it will become a way of life.

Struggling to incorporate more fresh fruits and vegetables into your diet? Even though it seems hard, eating more plant-based meals can be super easy with just a bit of creativity and organization. Here are a few great ways to eat more plants.

Vegan Burgers

Replace meat in your burgers with healthy plants that have “meaty” texture such as beans and mushrooms. You’ll be surprised at how tasty these plant-based burgers are!

Fresh Fruit and Nuts

Don’t make chocolates and other unhealthy food your go-to snack when you’re in the office. Instead, try to prepare healthy snacks such as bananas, apples, or a mix of your favorite nuts and carry them with you.

Smoothies

Preparing a tasty and healthy meal with fresh fruit and veggies has never been easier. Blend frozen bananas, berries, spinach, and other fruits and veggies you like with milk or yogurt and you’ll have a nice and tasty dose of greens for the day.
